Personaly I don't care one way or the other. "Photos not in violation of the conduct code or posted rules will not be restricted" QUE? Lots of luck folks. 
|
That's not why it was locked. 82nd was just letting the OP, and everyone else, know that they're not going to start banning pictures if they don't break any rules. |
That pretty much sums it up. |
So why not just say that instead of locking the thread? The original poster didn't ask for it to be restricted, just that people stop using it so much.
|
understandable. Thanks for the explinations. |
Just a guess, but it probably was locked because it was getting pretty close to personal attacks. |
|
I've been called ruthless and told my mouth can cut like a knife but about the rudest comment I've ever witnessed was in that thread. ETA: Take a rapist out to the shed, nail his balls to the floor and give him a knife. Set said shed on fire. Two choices. 1. Burn to death. 2. Cut you're fuckin' nuts off asshole. |
So, do you think rape is funny? Why would you want someone to get raped? |
|
 I find both of your comments hilarious as a matter of fact. Much better entertainment then the scratch offs I just played.
|
Is it the act of rape or the very picture that gets your dander up? Or is it just that you have nothing else to get self-righteous about tonight? Who did the guy in the picture rape? Who was the victim of this imagined act? Was it you? Is that why you're so upset about it?
Indeed. It would truly be a shame to have a real discussion about something that does not involve personal attacks or name-calling. Your warning may have been politely-worded, but the CoC still has not been violated. No crime committed other than "pissing off site staff". |
Answer my question first and I will tell you everything you need to know. Is it wrong to not find rape funny? |
What about the 17 billion other "possibly offensive" images posted here. Chris Hansen (reference to pedophiles), slaughtered animals, cartoon jesus, folks looting... Guess you don't find any of them funny either. So what do you suggest? No more images? Well, people can still type offensive things though. I guess we'll have to go ahead and shut down the internet. Oh well..  |
Nope. See, here's how this works... I supply multiple warnings like I've been doing. Some poster goes over the line. Someone's account gets locked, maybe for good. Maybe more than just one. Then the thread gets locked. Simple, no? |
None but it may hurt someones feelings so the old #7 comes out. 7.) Posting topics or discussions that do the site or community harm. More specifically creating topics meant to disrupt the site's day to day management, disrupt member's resources, or disrupt the ability for the site to function normally. |
"Pissing off site Staff" is no crime, so you are already in error. But, in answer to your overall point, a CoC violation most likely will happen and that will be that. Do carry on, though. |
