[QUOTE=teeheeV2;24818472]Ban people who disagree with you. Why do you ban only a few people who talked inthe LMAO pics thread, if you do one, you need to ban everyone who posts a pictureless comment except Gurant[/QUOTE] He was simply trolling, but since I was the target I banned him for another reason, i.e. it was a reply not suitable to the thread. Even in Fast Threads replies should be more or less on topic. In the LMAO pictures thread this would mean either a LMAO picture, or discussion of LMAO pictures.

Alright, thanks for that VNL. I'll keep reporting 'em as I see 'em.

[QUOTE=Dj-J3;24820308]Why is it against the rules to make a "choose for me" thread in the hardware & software forum?

Add some decent content to it, like research, or pros/cons you know of - and It's fine. [QUOTE=Computermaster;24820521]It invokes fanboyism. Example: "Should I get the Radeon 5770 or 5750?"

LMAO pics is much worse and still stands.[/QUOTE] Because the GGT was full of shitposting for 10 pages, followed by a gift request that got ignored / started a flame war. What's the point of a GGT when nobody gets gifted, unless you're in some elitist steam group? At least LMAO Pics contains pictures.

Canwe make abbreviated titles in Music section ban offences? We've had thread's called GnR (Guns N Roses) ADTR (A Day To Remember) NIN (Nine Inch Nails) Could even ban the for utt It's confusing and annoying.
[QUOTE=Mokkan13;24838052]I'll report as I see, but elaborate on this new policy?[/QUOTE] Well, I guess it isn't exactly new, but we have been reminded that garry wants members to have freedom of speech as far as is possible. This doesn't mean flaming, racism or warez are allowed - but bearing freedom of speech in mind it may sometimes be harder to decide in marginal cases whether a moderator should ban or not. If in doubt, I would say you should report. You won't normally be banned for abusing reports unless you report something very old or make malicious reports for no reason.
Hmm, you know I'd never have thought a policy like that coming from Garry himself. Here I thought I had him all planned out with his (Kind of) elitist attitude and love for good spelling and grammar and then he just has to throw a curveball at me.
My understanding is that he is very liberal in his views, and has always favoured as much freedom as possible within the limitations of not breaking the law and not encroaching on the freedoms of others. Of course I may be totally wrong, but that's how I see it.
[QUOTE=poopsicle;24837808]What the hell is a GTS 360?[/QUOTE] Part of the joke.
Everything I know is wrong :psyduck: I always thought (What with the very heavy handed attitude for the majority of the board's existance, and smartness/banwords as well) Garry was a pretty strict fellow when it came to administration really, now I have a lot of thinking to do in my secret study.
I wasn't referring to grammar, but to the content and meaning of the posts.
Oh, I probably stated that badly. I wasn't exactly referring to grammar more than the fact that he implemented those systems himself to keep the quality up, coupled with the fact that in the early years he was very tough with bans. Hell, maybe he never was that heavy handed and I'm just reminiscing the "Good old days" instead. Eh.
Why do green moderators get bigger avatars?
[QUOTE=xXxPR0L337SN1P4;24844497]Why do green moderators get bigger avatars?[/QUOTE] :doh: They're mods, they have more rights than you
Right...
just like gold members can have gif avatars
Gif avatars are eyerape avatars. But w/e. Also why r everyone mean here?
[QUOTE=xXxPR0L337SN1P4;24844902]Gif avatars are eyerape avatars. But w/e. Also why r everyone mean here?[/QUOTE] If there being mean to you I'm guessing they're objecting to the anime avatar and the name starting with "xXx".
