Ok, just for discussion, why is it that in the first link below, it is a "violation of CoC #6" (causing me to get a warning) after a member insulted and instigated some comments (for which most members in the topic addressed the said member):

http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=1&f=5&t=1101181

But yet on this thread, where members are publicly defacing someones picture, without their consent, and in most cases to ridicule, acceptable here?

http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=1&f=5&t=1100647

ETA: I am not butt hurt or mad, I am just curious to the rationale behind the enforcement of the COC being that it apparently is not measured in the same metrics across the board.

Discuss.

You called someone a retard. That's always going to be trouble, you can't directly attack someone with language like that, even if they've shown themselves to deserve it or be a bigger detriment to the thread than your insult.





Learn how to insult through thinly-veiled language like everyone else does, it's the CoC loophole. That way, you can violate the CoC in spirit all day long without violating the letter of the CoC.





That's how it's done.



There's no rule about photoshopping someone, member or not. Put your pics on the web, and you're fair game.

They are done in good fun. If they are not, they get taken down and warnings are issued.

You need to realize ARFCOM is kinda like hockey. If you're fast enough to get the first insult in, it's the guy who responds that gets the timeout.

I had a timeout on a #6 coc. I was responding to the insult he made to me. He didn't get one.

Well stated.

Being a member here is generally not enough to qualify for unlimited bashing.

However, if someone made a video or went on the news insulting the site or members here and distributed it then they fall under the category of a "public figure", which grants much more leeway for comments in terms of the slander and libel laws than just being a businessperson or in this case site member.
