Well, I don't quite agree with that, nik0tine. If the picture is graphic, then it would only make things worse to display it.

That is a problem, but they could pm all of us with the link, as opposed to posting it on the site. That seems like it would work. If people didn't want to view it, it would be made crystal clear that the picture would be questionable, and or pornographic.

You guys are seriously making way to big of a deal out of this. Go about your lives people. This is the internet.

[The Captain]

Ah, but for many people, this place is part of their lives.

Take care all.

I'm going about my life. I visit this place regularly. It's a part of my daily routine, like brushing my teeth when I wake up.

[Zell's Fists of Fury]

I mean normal lives for fart's sake.

This is not a big deal at any time, except for when we are at EoFF. Im not going to lose sleep over this, but when I am at EoFF it is a big deal. Why? Because it is a part of what is happening at EoFF right now. In regards to EoFF this is a big deal. In the greater scheme of things, however, it is not. That, however, does not mean we that should refrain from voicing our opinions. Doing that would make very little sense.

Thank you, Captain. I'm fine with this thread existing for the reasons you stated. I am not, however, fine with everyone condemning me based on few facts and many assumptions.

Who doesn't understand that? I haven't seen anyone make any indication that they think they're part of making staff decisions. You just seem to be making up your own conclusions of what everyone who isn't in charge is thinking now apparently.

I'm just sayin' what I see.

And it's not about a final decision, it's about the fact that he was banned, then unbanned, for the same thing I'd of been banned for without a second thought, or any of the rest of us who "dont understand".

You don't know that.

That is a problem, but they could pm all of us with the link, as opposed to posting it on the site. That seems like it would work. If people didn't want to view it, it would be made crystal clear that the picture would be questionable, and or pornographic.

Or you could just let the staff do their job.

*refreshes 'cause she knows there's more*

Ah, but for many people, this place is part of their lives.

I think they have professionals to help with that.

I don't recall anyone condemning you. I for one, am not.

I think they have professionals to help with that.

[Strider]

I'm not so sure you're taking this, or any of us for that matter, seriously. And that deeply concerns me.

[DMKA]

I think they have professionals to help with that.

It's quite possibly more amusing seeing you say that then it would be from anyone else on the board...I'll let you use your imagination as to why.

I just don't get why there's even a decision making process going on. It's always been posting porn = instaban. Permanent instaban. Permanent instaban with a pretty pink title under your name. But it seems like that just doesn't apply for Kishi. I'm done here though. So go on about your telling everyone else what you wish to think you "see".

[Raistlin]

Or you could just let the staff do their job.

I am. I'm not arguing with any other member of Staff, because they seem to be adequately doing their job, based on objectivie decisions.

Quick copy/paste from my LJ:

You're supposed to make a decision based on the facts of the case. Just like in a legal court - the defendent's character is not on trial; his actions are. You need to make a decision based on what Kishi did, not who Kishi is. The punishment should fit the offence, not Kishi's "status."

[Shlup]

I don't recall anyone condemning you. I for one, am not.

I didn't say you were, specifically. If you don't recall anyone else doing it, though, then all that pot you must be smoking has given you the mind of a goldfish.

I'm not so sure you're taking this, or any of us for that matter, seriously. And that deeply concerns me.

I think you underestimated my sincerity when I stated both that you need to go outside, and you may want to seek professional help.

It's quite possibly more amusing seeing you say that then it would be from anyone else on the board...I'll let you use your imagination as to why.

Because EoFF is such a big part of my life? Because it is my home? Because I would do anything to keep it from deteriorating into nothing more than a memory?

I would be more concerned if I heard they were cancelling Desperate Housewives. Now there's something to get worked up about.

I am. I'm not arguing with any other member of Staff, because they seem to be adequately doing their job, based on objectivie decisions.

Whether or not I'm adequately doing my job is also currently a staff decision, not yours. You are free to say your piece on it, but you're also more than free to shut up.

[nik0tine]

I didn't say you were, specifically. If you don't recall anyone else doing it, though, then all that pot you must be smoking has given you the mind of a goldfish.

I don't do much pot smoking, actually.

I personally do not feel that anyone is condemning you at all. I think people are just a little worked up over this (Maybe a little too worked up) and the things they are saying reflect the heat of the moment, not what they really think and feel.

The implication that you're a heavy pot smoker was a joke.

What's said is said.

[Strider]

Oh. You are so right.
