Ask us about the forums: READ THE OP or get BANNED. - General

[QUOTE=Ignhelper;34096985]Is it possible for me to post threads, which are photo blogs again without getting banned this time? I've love to share content, and seeing how Starpluck recently made one, I feel that I should be able to do the same. [url]http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1120801[/url] [url]http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1103981?p=30885609&viewfull=1#post30885609[/url][/QUOTE] Don't you ever read your ban reasons?

[QUOTE=Craptasket;34107909]Don't you ever read your ban reasons?[/QUOTE] There are reasons for bans.

Can we have a loosening of the rules for Mass Debate? We get debate threads such as this [url]http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1153931[/url] which actually present valid topics of debate getting closed, because (I assume) that the debate is rather heated. So what? That's what makes an interesting debate! Why can't people debate about such a topic? Or what about this thread [url]http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1152402[/url] ? You could think "it went off-topic", but really, the supposed "off-topic"ness of the debate (which is whether it really happened) relates back to the original topic, of whether holocaust denial should be illegal. And why was the OP banned for "this is not a debate thread"? Does craptasket know the definition of a debate? Thanks alot, that thread was interesting. We get threads with great potential getting closed because either a few silly sods go off-topic, the debate gets heated or the OP doesn't necessarily follow the rules of creating a thread, such as having to make an argument in the original post. So much lost potential, it makes the Mass Debate shit.

MLP: FiM isn't a valid debating topic [editline]idk[/editline] And that other one, on weather or not denying weather or not the holocaust actually occurred is plain retarded too, both threads had valid reasons to be closed.

if anything the rules need to be more strict some of these threads are hardly debates

I'm still wondering how the fuck the M4 vs. AK thread can survive long enough to get five pages.

Why does this thread exist? [url]http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1137299[/url] Basically, shitpost thread.

[QUOTE=IQ-Guldfisk;34120369]Why does this thread exist? [url]http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1137299[/url] Basically, shitpost thread.[/QUOTE] because its fast threads, and unless it's been changed, posts there do not count.

Holocaust thread was closed because the OP was terrible, what is stopping you from continuing the heated debate?

The Holocaust thread was locked because of it's shitty OP. OP needs to read MD's rules before posting. Debates that get heated tend to become flaming threads where shit is flung and users are banned. Keep your debates at a minimal.

Can we get some bbcode for inline code? So I could type something like this: [code] [tt]some_function_call()[/tt] [/code] and it'd be shown in monospace font inline with the rest of the paragraph
