I really don't care, but I would prefer you to stay because I don't want to change the damn crew code for the 20th time.
If you actually read the thread in the staff section you will know why he was banned. Who said he said it again? It was an example and it was not 1-2 months ago. Taking ---- too personally? lol.. i don't think so, theres having a laugh and a joke and theres taking it way too far, they took it too far, they got punished for it end of story. If he posted that ---- to anyone else in the chat room i would have banned him for it as i did today, i don't care who it is, who is pregnant etc etc.. if comments like that were said to another member of GR i sure as hell would have done something about it as im sure Logic, Marforce etc would do too. Also 100% warning already, takes ---- too far, nothing to do but to ban him anyway but thats not the point, i didn't ban him so i don't really care what you have to say. I take ---- too personally? No i don't, i take nothing personally but if someone takes it too far then sure ill say something about it, especially if it is something to do with my unborn child, a person who can't defend himself/herself. Oh and i like the way my 'emotions' have come into it again, but fyi, there is nothing wrong with my hormones, im the same as ive always been but hey, you keep thinking that ok? I won't lose any sleep over it. Females in position of power, lol... sexism ftl
What on earth are you on about? I mean seriously, what the hell? Someone makes a joke, and sure, that is fine up until a certain point. But when assholes like you and Majin take it too far, instead of bieng a man and apologising for offending someone, you whine about how people can't take a joke and moan about it too much.. Frankly, you are an ------ dude, and you dont deserve to be an admin at the forum. You are: racist, sexist, a bully to members, break the forum rules, have been known to ban people for practically no reason yourself.. the list goes on. Regardless to how much of a dick I think you are, this topic is irrelevent. Simply put, Majin is now ban evading, and therefore breaking the rules. Yet chances are, because you, Dem, and Majin are so far up each others arses, he will probably be let off with a slap on the hand and allowed to come back again. Another reason I believe you shouldn't be an admin.
Dem what the hell, you've compared me to yourself in a positive way and also defended me... what the ------!
Regaurdless, if you didnt want people making fun of your new born you shouldn't have told them. 95% Of the gr community is insensative males who dont understand the fear of pregnancy ect. It will always be a ------ing joke to them no matter how hard you try to explain it. Sure it might be 'offensive' or they might be 'assholes', you should be old enough to know they are ------ in life. Get over it. P.s: To all you kiss asses, nobody wants you around, you arent adding any thing into the conversation, you are trying to boast yourself for some pathetic attempt at getting staff.
The thing you dont seem to notice is that while the majority of people might joke about it, there is only a small handful of people that take it too far and really try to show off to everyone about it.. As I said though, its cool right? Because you can hide behind your computer and say what the hell you like. Heh. EDIT: I wonder, since I guess that 'kiss the staffs ass' comment was probably directed at me, how your reply would have differed if an admin hadn't posted..

[/b][/quote] One of the most basic idea's in life, is there are assholes, just get a grip. I've been molested before, i still get comments like "I'll rape you in your sleep", people dont understand how hurtful that is, most males are to ignorant of this. Abortion/rape/beating a women, are mostly jokes to them, and until you actually go through those you'll never understand. Yes maj1n did cross a line, but kirbir should have been mature enough to just ignore what he said.
Sorry, but you don't realize the history between me and dem, we've not always seen eye to eye. I'm far from up his ass, he's just someone i know, chat to, and respect. I actually it isnt dems word that has always been final in my banning, i believe logic plays a large part in them. Dem has done more for this site than you actually realize too. Without him i'd guarantee the sites demise.
I banned Maj for posting a photo not using the word harlequin. Please tell me what options I had left? He can't be suspended, and evidently can't be banned. (Not that he wouldn't come back). Maj knew damn well he was crossing a line, not only with kirbir, but myself and Logic. Maj can't seem to figure out when enough is enough, we've given him so many opportunities to figure it out. Yet, he can't. When you're not being a complete moron, I do happen to like you Maj. As for those blaming kirbir on his banning, she was unwilling to take action on the forums for precisely this reason. She was not involved in my decision to lay down a futile ban. If you're looking to place blame, it should be directed to me.

[/b][/quote] Since you have had hurtful comments like that directed at you before then, surely you can understand where she is coming from. Having two kids myself, I also found the comments and stuff that Majin posted to be incredibly offensive. Hence why I believe he should be banned. I joined this forum to be apart of a graphics community, who were focused on helping each other grow and be better at it, rather than slinging hurtful and insulting comments about. EVERY OTHER FORUM that I have EVER been a member of would NOT have put up with that, yet people here seem to agree, and make ------ing jokes about it.. People are starting to wonder why GR is becoming less and less active, and THAT to me is the reason. @Majin: Fair enough, I dont know the relationship you two have, or the past of it or whatever. And sure, he may have done a LOT for the forum. But there are always other people with the skills, time and enthusiasm that he has, and there are always those who have a much better attitude to members too.
I did read the thread, and the reason I haven't pursued actively banning him is because I don't believe he should be banned, especially not because of a female moderators emotions getting the best of her. He did it in the IRC, it warrants an IRC ban, not a site ban, he posted in the last word. Nothing he did on the IRC should have resulted in an IRC ban, period. You do take shit too personally, you always do. You joke with everyone about everything and flame as much as anyone else, but as soon as the flames turn to you, you lash out and if you can't take care of it, you whine to someone with more power than you, or more say in the matter than you have. You do this to me all the time (complaining about me, but coming to me to help you with your issues). You KNOW this, I have gone over it for multiple HOURS with you in private chats. I am sexist, everyone knows this, frankly if a woman receives a position of power in the stats I will lose all respect for this nation and I will be leaving it. Women are scientifically proven to characterize things differently and act differently because of their emotions. Women work differently than men when emotional things come into play, such as an unborn baby being brought into the picture. Get off her balls kid. She never really asked to stop, and when she did, he simply questioned it, as he should, as he deserves a reason, as not everything is bluntly obvious to people. Last I checked, questioning an individual in a position of power is NOT a bannable offense. I do take shit too far, and the thing is, I apologize, and I make it up, as does Majin, as did Morv, as does nearly every flamer on the site does. Your too much of an ignorant individual to even see this. As are MOST of the site members whom fail to comprehend the background to things. Majin has does DAMN good for himself. He has been back for 6 months, not a single bad thing said on the forum outside of the last word, the only issues were on the IRC, and look how far back kirbir had to go to show an example, nearly a month or more ago. He has been on good behavior, which for Maj, takes a LOT. I put in more work than 90% of the staff on this site. I have been a loyal member of this site longer than just about everyone except Llama. I have put more hours, effort, and care into this site than most of you dweebs can fathom. I take care of matters most of the staff wouldn't or couldn't bother with. You wanna know who staff comes to when they have an issue and need it handled, or need advice outside of the forum? Yeah, thats right, most of them come to me. Most of the staff members confide in me, because they know I am NOT a bad guy. Again, your ignorant to what goes on in your surroudings. I am racist, I am sexist, I do bully members, I do not break the forum rules without reason, I do not ban members without reason, or consulting other staff members, and again your an ignorant piece of shit who should learn to keep his mouth shut and learn to not join the flame forum if thats the sole basis your going to judge someone on. You want a good idea of who I am as an individual? You come have a 1 on 1 with me in IRC or MSN or PM or any form of intelligent manner. Learn to engage yourself in actions prior to making swift judgements, it will fail you in the long run. Majin is not ban evading, as he had my permission to post this. Not because he and I are butt lovers like your homosexual mind would like to think, but because I feel he was banned from the site unjustified. I'm done replying to your ignorant statements. If you want to reply with some amount of intelligence, feel free and I will reply.
As to whether or not it would have resulted in a ban had the picture involved other members? Yes. It would have. Everyone had been given fair warning the jokes about her baby were going too far and were going to result in punishments. Were I able to give some other punishment to Maj, I probably would have. However, I only had one option.
This post is at wynter or w/e it is, the brick wall was getting to big. The difference between, you/kirbir and me, is I learned to live with those hateful comments. Its like racism, regardless of how hard you try you cant change what people think, As for the term he used, yes it was offensive, everybody here should be mature enough to handle comments like that. The reason gr is 'decaying' is because this place has turned into a mindless graphic forums. And stupid rules such as banning maj1n for posting in the 'flame' section is one of them. I remember a time when maj1n could have posted the same topic, in general section, and not be banned, even warned. WIth the more rules, this place is turning into your average graphic forums nothing here is worth while. The "cancer" of gr is prude assholes don't understand silly fun. Kirbir: If you allow one joke, you should know that means more people will keep going and going. You could have prevented this a hell of a lot sooner. You let this expand to the point it did. Dem says worse to you all the time, You should know by now that people say hateful and hurtful things, and you should have been better and just moved on. Maj1n: Yes, you did take things a bit far. But no, nobody expected more from you. Maforce: Hai.
He shouldn't have been banned on the site. IRC yes, and last I checked each time he was asked to stop, he did, as he always does. All it takes is communication.
