Mr Truth is the guy reporting.
Should we ban Fred, Mr Truth? Because that's the ultimate purpose of the "report" button.
The two posts he reported were the one's where Fred told Joel he was "full of shit asshole," and told Alaric "Fuck you, Al". And I happen to intuitively know (but not with 100% certainty, of course) that neither Joel nor Alaric were probably offended. Maybe a little "irked?" In any case, they themselves were not the ones to report the events.
Neither of those are what is generally considered "reportable" offenses, Mr Truth.
I mean, anything is reportable, technically.. but grow some balls Mr Truth, and overlook the simple stuff. This is a minor squabble, nothing more. And it doesn't diminish your "online experience", as far as I can tell. Nor does it actually involve you. Nobody actually said anything to you.
This BBS is "virtually unmoderated", which means, there will be differences of opinion and some harsh language. You agreed to that in 2010 when you signed up, and then Amp'ed this September. You have seen that this is common, with your own eyes. Becoming an "AMP" isn't gonna make your opinion any more valid in these minor disagreements.
So unless you see the few "serious" events that will result in banishment, just use the "ignore" feature, because I really don't feel like chasing around your whims.
Wow. "Global moderator janitor" has called me out in public, and told me that I need to grow balls. And reprimanded me on how my being a paying member on Free Talk Live doesn't hold any more merit. I guess I will know not to up the amp and donate any more money. All because I clicked the little clicky that says "report to moderator" and simply wrote three small words to the moderators about language. I never said anything about banning anyone...your words, not mine. And so much for anonymity, but that's cool. And another poster has said that I am "a whiny douche." And I am the one who is overreacting here? I have only posted five times ever in these message boards, and have only spoken positive of FTL and their hosts. But I guess you sure showed me. Stay classy.
I hope everything is cool. Takes a bit of a post count to get any respect at all here and even then it doesn't count for a lot. I also believe being a amper should count for something on the BBS ballsize contest but it just doesn't. That is the reason the debate is a bit more raw and honest. Stephanie is getting nothing but love outside here I'll bet.
On the FTL BBS, even Oz and Denis take a little shit, and they are serious players in the NH liberty movement,(and big time amps, especially Oz) so don't take it so hard.
If and when Dragline comes back you will soon find out how much shit gets a pass here. Anybody used to that guy didn't even consider bothering a mod about Fred's little ribbing.
