Ask us EVEN more about the forums: READ THE OP before EACH post or get BANNED. - General

I actually thought the www. thing was part of the idiot cull, to be honest.

I feel a bit sorry for megadick

[QUOTE=Mio Akiyama;39679190]Who broke the ratings and icons?[/QUOTE] Garry ate a foot-long but spilled some mayonaise on the circuit board of the server hosting Facepunch (He was visiting the Cloudflare locals during lunch and they secretly operate their servers without casing).

If someone were to post in the idiot cull thread on my IP would I get banned too? Even if it wasn't me nor my account? :l Not that someone has, I'm just wondering...

but garry hosts fp on amazon servers

Yes.

I think?

[QUOTE=Mike Tyson;39680443]Yes.[/QUOTE] Well gee, I better be careful then... Thanks.

[QUOTE=yawmwen;39674639]on this same line, can "check your privilege" sort of responses also be considered meme crap?[/QUOTE] It's not really a meme though. It's a phrase used to imply someone is being overly sensitive, and it's only really used in certain contexts. It's a saying commonly used by extreme social justice nuts on tumblr. It's not even commonly said in many places online. A couple people have said it occasionally in threads were the topic at hand involved someone being offended over something really silly. It's used to poke fun at people who are overly sensitive. Even though a couple people have said it recently, it really isn't a meme. It's not some sort of famous online saying, and it only really makes sense in context.

Megadick posted in the idiot curll by mistake. Surely he shouldn't be permabanned for a mistake. Everybody posted in the wrong thread once.

[QUOTE=-n3o-;39680063]How so?[/QUOTE] Some good posters decided to jump into that thread. Maybe they are tired of Facepunch? Or he are pointing his fingers at some of the errors that are happening right now.

[QUOTE=yawmwen;39680860]he posted a thread. [editline]22nd February 2013[/editline] it's the same as thanks obama or sanius squad really. it's memeish and pretty dumb[/QUOTE] Not really. Like I said its more a phrase. You can't just get a phrased to be bannable just because you don't like it.

[QUOTE=Iago;39680912]Megadick posted in the [b]idiot cull by mistake[/b]. Surely he shouldn't be permabanned for a mistake. Everybody posted in the wrong thread once.[/QUOTE] That's the purpose of the thread, silly. If it wasn't it'd be called "post here if you want to be perma'd".

[QUOTE=mobrockers2;39680952]That's the purpose of the thread, silly. If it wasn't it'd be called "post here if you want to be perma'd".[/QUOTE] He said he didn't mean to post in it, he meant to post in another thread I think.

[QUOTE=Iago;39680989]He said he didn't mean to post in it, he meant to post in another thread I think.[/QUOTE] So he's an idiot, and he's been culled.

[QUOTE=areolop;39665367]can "Thanks Obama" be banable now in SH? Its a meme response. ie, this. Completely irrelevant to the article. [url]http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?p=39665115#post39665115[/url][/QUOTE] Is there an official mod ruling on this? Is it allowed or no?

[QUOTE=mobrockers2;39681036]So he's an idiot, and he's been culled.[/QUOTE] With that logic, with every honest mistake you've ever made, you've been made, an idiot. Just pointing that out... Back on topic: Spotlight was a good idea. Will it ever be used again? [sub][sub](With the way things are going, I doubt it)[/sub][/sub]

Seems that for some reason, the Lua Helper/King and GMF Mustache are the only ratings that are showing normally

[QUOTE=SuperDuperScoot;39681071]With that logic, with every honest mistake you've ever made, you've been made, an idiot. Just pointing that out... Back on topic: Spotlight was a good idea. Will it ever be used again? [sub][sub](With the way things are going, I doubt it)[/sub][/sub][/QUOTE] Not enough of an idiot to post in a thread that gets me insta perma'd. Just pointing that out...

[QUOTE=areolop;39681063]Is there an official mod ruling on this? Is it allowed or no?[/QUOTE] pretty sure banning the guy is an official response

[QUOTE=Ericson666;39680890] I don't want anything to happen to Facepunch, because the only real alternative is SPUF which is full of giant retards and no ratings[/QUOTE] There are other alternatives, but they're not really better. There's SA that has arguably worse moderation and costs a ton, and other large forums that are basically the same as SPUF if not worse.

Tried ctrl+f5, and deleting the facepunch cookie, still getting this problem. Anyone know what's up? [img_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/2CMTXiK.png[/img_thumb]

[QUOTE=mobrockers2;39681036]So he's an idiot, and he's been culled.[/QUOTE] I'm pretty sure everybody, including you has done a honest mistake before. By that logic anybody who mistakenly post in the wrong thread should be permabanned.

Www domain along with the ticker and images or showing up is one thing and it's an error, not an attempt to kill the site. I don't think GD is broken on purpose, registrations will be enabled sooner or later, and as mentioned in the op it's either Garry messing around or he's developing something. Also lol how is SPUF an alternative to FP, a closer alternative would be something like SA.

[QUOTE=Iago;39681328]I'm pretty sure everybody, including you has done a honest mistake before. By that logic anybody who mistakenly post in the wrong thread should be permabanned.[/QUOTE] That's not what I'm saying, he's simply unlucky enough to post in the wrong thread in the wrong thread. Exactly what the thread is for.

[QUOTE=mobrockers2;39681366]That's not what I'm saying, he's simply unlucky enough to post in the wrong thread in the wrong thread. Exactly what the thread is for.[/QUOTE] I enjoy the idiot culls as much as the next but it still feels a bit harsh keeping the dude banned. That is assuming he actually didn't post their on purpose.

But surely you check before you post something? Especially so if you've opened a thread "Do not post in this thread" in another tab.

[QUOTE=horsedrowner;39681436]But surely you check before you post something? Especially so if you've opened a thread "Do not post in this thread" in another tab.[/QUOTE] Yeah I'm a bit skeptical that he didn't do it on purpose tbh. I always closed that thread after reading just to ensure I wouldn't accidentally post there.
