so i recently got warned for a post (in a thread which no longer exists) in which i made a comment about the itgfreak staff sucking roxor's cock (which they do imo), and i wanted to know how that's considered flaming when it wasn't against anyone on the site and i've seen far worse comments about offsite individuals. i pm'd the mod which gave me the warning points (jason) when it happened last week, but he still hasn't responded.

I then agreed. Since it's my opinion, and recieved 2 or 4 or however many points. But the person below me who I quote replied: "lolrofllol" didnt' recieve any. How come?

yes because it has nothing to do with this site, or members of it. if i went into one of the political threads in random chat and said " George Bush sucks cock" i highly doubt i would've gotten warned for that, so how is this any different?

Actually you probably would have. Political speech is fine, but don't lace it with epithets and preschool language.

At any rate, moderator decisions are, for the most part, made in a vacuum. It's our business whether to warn someone or not, and for how much, because it's our show we run here.

so a mod can warn someone for anything or nothing just if they feel like it?

I'm sure there's SOME discretion involved.

i'm sure there is, but if a mod didn't like someone, than they could warn them for something that could be ever so slightly offensive, and wouldn't normally warrant points.

You make it sound like that he has to support one or the other.

Sorry, but it doesn't work that way. Sure, he's ITG and DDR freak staff, doesn't mean he has to support ddr when he's here, or itg when he's there.

But what's your point? What do you mean when you say that?

I know of a few mods who don't like me, and yet I'm here as well. And they haven't given me points. Why? Follow the rules, don't get on their cases and you won't get any points. The mods can't abuse their power like that, if they could me and a bunch of other people would be banned in a heartbeat.

When have you heard someone say "rooster" in preschool?

So what if he was surfing both sites at the same time?

Oh wait, that doesn't matter because your point is ridiculous.

how is my point rediculous? i wasn't flaming anyone on the site, so it shouldn't be a warning. insulting another site someone is with should not be grounds for a warning.

But it is, so deal with it.

I'm sorry, but is there a particular problem you have with being courteous?

People might like to rag on us from "the other Bemani sites", but we're not going to allow people to stoop to that same level here. Specific complaints about those sites are fine, sure, but saying what you did is just asking for trouble.

As the saying goes, it's not what you did, it's how you did it. If you think that people at ITG Freak kiss up too much to Roxor, you can say that, but you had to go say it in Internet words, and that changed the entire tone of your post. Are you saying the same things about us? After all, I was the one that locked that thread away. Are we also in bed with Roxor because we're disallowing that particular thread of discussion?

Choose your words carefully, sir.

internet words? what part of my post was "internet words"? "sucking their cock" is pretty commonly accepted slang for "kissing up to someone" in real life, and it's just plain wrong for me to get warned because of how i talk.

EDIT:

Flaming is the act of directly attacking another user or group of users.
from the faq. there was nothing at all direct about what i said, nor was it directed at any one user or group of users on the site.

The RoXoR staff are on DDRFreak, if I recall correctly. They also have a usergroup.

Thus, they are a group of users.
