State of Epicmafia vs. Mr. Hogday

deleteddeletedover 8 years ago

A. Banned users can't file reports, but please unban yeasayer as a side note.

B. While I agree that a line was crossed, he did stop, and I don't think he deserves a HC violation.

C. He is one of my favorite posters, was a cool dude when I was going through a rough time, and is one of the few users left I still enjoy.

Being as there aren't really all that many forum posters or old comp vets left, can we let bygones be bygones and OT the vio with the understanding that he needs to stop now?

Also harodihg is a pretty cool guy, post in this thread about anything if you agree

But if we pretend the mod system is the judicial branch of the US government, we can all participate in a fun mass hysteria and together alleviate our boredom. That's how the website used to work anyways. I miss those days.

because this is a privately owned, non-government website that literally says "hey don't do this thing or this thing will happen to you" and he chose to do the thing anyway
Sure, but is it really a big deal?
idk sonse, is it a big enough deal for you to go this hard insisting that he deserves special treatment and not to get a violation for something he did?

I think the reaction it drew is a little amusing

Community interaction is essential in keeping this website active and the rules are meant to protect the users. Protecting the users keeps the users here and the site from dying.

it's weird because you'd think a website like this would attract those freedom of the internet people
nah, if anything, libertarian brain geniuses are overrepresented on EM

I wonder why, it's basically a ripoff of 4chan

sonseray you have one coherent point, and that's that breaking the rules owns

It doesn't apply if you don't want it to. The real question is why you don't want it to on a website like this

MisterPresidentover 8 years ago

Considering free speech doesn't apply to a website with rules, that post actually doesn't mean as much as you think it does

This website is not the US government

deleteddeletedover 8 years ago

it's also what the hc violation and forum suspension are for

Someone should be on his side, with all of epicmafia hating free speech

think you meant to post this one, lacey

deleteddeletedover 8 years ago

Let's talk about free speech some more, I think lacey has a good point. You don't have to listen to him, which is what the block feature is for.

the first rule of arguing on the internet is that the second you mention how little you care, you've lost the argument

the second rule of arguing on the internet is that the second you ask someone who disagrees with you if theyre upset, salty, riled up, bitter, cookies, or any other synonym for "mad," you've lost the argument

This isn't a game dude, it's serious.

if you'd like, you can refer to Rule 1 as the Riotkiller Corollary
