I'm starting to think this is Ian's version of the Stanford Prison experiment.


I have a hunch.

I'm pretty mild-mannered, so the theory is that I'll be terribly corrupted by power and start roaming the board in sharpened stiletto heels, cracking a whip and delivering severe punishments for minor and/or imaginary infractions?

You saw that Photoshop I made right?

" . " - sounds like you're still on one.

Two things, short as shit:

1. The BBS has a "No Racism & Bigotry" rule. You were enforcing a "No N-Word" rule. Those two are not the same.
2. There are obvious workarounds to most any rule. In the spirit of FTL in general (big fans of pointing out the pointlessness in petty rules - manicure licenses, etc.) my intent was to show you a loophole - the username.

I did nothing to provoke you on a personal level (as in lookin ya right in the eye), you chose to make it personal with lame name-calling. Dunno why, but I'm still surprised at how emotional you seem to be about it. To me it's still just two members of a forum having an exchange, light jabs, etc. and certainly nothing major. Ease up, Dude.

Bill Brasky, you have an ignore list, it appears you need to use it and/or calm the eff down and discuss things rationally. As someone looking in you're not doing yourself any favors by flying off the handle when someone brings up what appear to be valid and truthful critiques of your moderation.

You win dude. Don't have it in me to continue shitty macho middle school drama.

Not to imply that you've chosen sides or anything - but thanks assawyer for the words.

You again make my point for me Bill Brasky.

You're welcome Aunt Bee. I haven't taken sides because I don't know a lot of the behind the scenes. Bill Brasky is making it easier for me to think that he's difficult to deal with and what people have said about him in this thread have more credibility.
