[QUOTE=Reagy;52254527]If they don't read this thread, what makes you think they've read the sticky? Being honest there.[/QUOTE] because not everybody reads this thread? it's not a rule to read this thread, a lot of people just don't care. however, the rules stickies are highlighted at the top of every forum and are pretty obvious. i'm just saying, if you're going to start handing out week bans for something, you should probably try to let as many people know as possible.
[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;52254801]If you put it in the sticky, then when they ask "why was I banned??" You can be smug and say "it was in the rules(:"[/QUOTE] Its already technically in the rules as its off topic discussion/shit posting, I'm just changing the baseline from looking at their event log and setting the length based off history to straight up a week. [editline]20th May 2017[/editline] But I guess if it keeps people happy, I'll append it to the bottom if the rest of the mod team agrees.

[QUOTE=CunningHam;52254619]he has?[/QUOTE] To be perfectly honest, I saw it mostly from him. It seemed kinda fucked up but I was scared to say anything
[QUOTE=postal;52254865]this. it takes all of like 2 seconds to add it to the sticky anyways so WHY NOT EDIT: just added 'reagy is a buttface' to the rules sticky and can now confirm it takes like 2 seconds[/QUOTE] stop bully [editline]20th May 2017[/editline] [QUOTE=Snickerdoodle;52254867]To be perfectly honest, I saw it mostly from him. It seemed kinda fucked up but I was scared to say anything[/QUOTE] If you think something is out of line, you're fine questioning it in here. Just ensure you have proof and can actually link to it etc, otherwise you'll just get laughed at. The few cases I have actually seen with BDA, he was calling them out after he banned them to kill the discussion which is fine, to a degree. Personally I'd just ban and use those as the killer to it.
can smurfy get unbanned for garree's birthday
Mandatory minimum sentencing, eh?
[QUOTE=Mining Bill;52254993]can smurfy get unbanned for garree's birthday[/QUOTE] I strongly endorse this message On a not unrelated topic, I miss how SH used to be: with obviously edited (and funny) titles and people not taking threads so seriously
:thinking: should be banned in polidicks. It adds nothing to discussion and is only used in a condescending manner.
[QUOTE=Propane Addict;52255287]:thinking: should be banned in polidicks. It adds nothing to discussion and is only used in a condescending manner.[/QUOTE] it's the perfect response though [editline]21st May 2017[/editline] the fact that an emote has managed to crawl its way into your skin just speaks volumes about the thickness of it [editline]21st May 2017[/editline] makes me do a gosh darn :thinking:
aren't all the emoticons just miniature reaction images
[QUOTE=Propane Addict;52255287]:thinking: should be banned in polidicks. It adds nothing to discussion and is only used in a condescending manner.[/QUOTE] :dig: is the only one that matters
[QUOTE=Propane Addict;52255287]:thinking: should be banned in polidicks. It adds nothing to discussion and is only used in a condescending manner.[/QUOTE] It seems like it's only ever used in a condescending manner everywhere.
[QUOTE=postal;52254865] EDIT: just added 'reagy is a buttface' to the rules sticky and can now confirm it takes like 2 seconds[/QUOTE] I wonder of postal just called you out
Am I the only one getting random 503's? It's been happening for the past couple of days
[QUOTE=kariko;52255359]It seems like it's only ever used in a condescending manner everywhere.[/QUOTE] Replace it with an image of the thinker, Give it some sophistication, instead of just being an alternative to smug [editline]21st May 2017[/editline] [QUOTE=TheJoker;52255365]Am I the only one getting random 503's? It's been happening for the past couple of days[/QUOTE] Seen a few, hard to tell what the issue is with cloudflare being mitm
[QUOTE=kariko;52255359]It seems like it's only ever used in a condescending manner everywhere.[/QUOTE] I used it when I was genuinely confused and it got me banned.
[QUOTE=Zombinie;52255418]I used it when I was genuinely confused and it got me banned.[/QUOTE] :thinking:
[QUOTE=Zombinie;52255418]I used it when I was genuinely confused and it got me banned.[/QUOTE] It wasn't the usage that got you banned
[QUOTE=Zombinie;52255418]I used it when I was genuinely confused and it got me banned.[/QUOTE] :huh: been more ideal at that time and your post was shit, an image and an emote that doesn't contribute anything so you got banned for that. Moral of the story, use text and then add the emote if you really need to put across the point.
[QUOTE=Mining Bill;52254993]can smurfy get unbanned for garree's birthday[/QUOTE] Why not just unban everyone who toxxed the 2016 election?
[QUOTE=Mr. Sarcastic;52255637]Why not just unban everyone who toxxed the 2016 election?[/QUOTE] wait until trump gets removed from office, then do it

[QUOTE=Mythman;52255064]I strongly endorse this message On a not unrelated topic, I miss how SH used to be: with obviously edited (and funny) titles and people not taking threads so seriously[/QUOTE] The idea of the SH/Polidicks split was that if politics was taken out of SH it would leave more room for funny and light hearted articles. Obviously people who weren't posting those articles before still aren't going to post them because there are less political posts.
[QUOTE=Reagy;52254527]If they don't read this thread, what makes you think they've read the sticky? Being honest there.[/QUOTE] It has less to do with reading (also, what kind of statement is that "if they don't read this specific thread at this specific page then what makes you think they'll read the bright yellow thing that's always at the top of the page," what?) and more to do with consistency. Any new rules should, y'know, go with the rest of the rules. Also, it doesn't let people use that excuse to get off a ban from disobeying rules that are right in the sticky.

[QUOTE=Kiwi;52255681]Who's smurfy?[/QUOTE] Who's this clown?
What or who is the sanius squad? I keep seeing them mentioned and I don't remember them from when I posted here before.
[QUOTE=Lambeth;52257114]What or who is the sanius squad? I keep seeing them mentioned and I don't remember them from when I posted here before.[/QUOTE] A bunch of fairly toxic shitposters. Sanius, thisispain (though in my opinion he was a lot more hilarious than toxic), apparently HalfLambada or whatever their name was. I think there were a few others as well. Edit: yawmwen was another one iirc.
[QUOTE=Mythman;52255064]I strongly endorse this message On a not unrelated topic, I miss how SH used to be: with obviously edited (and funny) titles and people not taking threads so seriously[/QUOTE] This, I don't get why people keep trying to make it into a no fun zone. My heart dies a little for every pun ban I've seen
[QUOTE=Lambeth;52257114]What or who is the sanius squad? I keep seeing them mentioned and I don't remember them from when I posted here before.[/QUOTE] An elite outfit of flame-war hardened keyboard operators lead by by the eponymous Sanius. They were only outed and decimated following the disavowal of a certain French moderator. They would generally share their political opinions in the most passive-aggressive way possible, which didn't earn them many fans.
