the finest of display names only

If you think "you are acting entitled" is a personal attack, good luck to you on your adult life.

like i said, i think it's overly sensitive, but i think posters should honor a request to change a display & mods should enforce -- it's just a display

i have trouble seeing what the big difference is between making a pun on someone's username in a post & doing it in a DN. but yeah, i don't really have a problem if this is ILX's policy

so this is cool with you then right?

(i had worse ones but eh, you get the point right?)

i don't have a prob with this "policy" either, it's just dn's ffs.

u didn't say "you are acting entitled", but if u want to spin it like yr infallible, w/e.

lol yes that is cool with me as it happens

whiney had zvocka socka lame & zvocksucker for a while & that was cool w me but i don't expect everyone to be like that

zvook OTM. as long as it doesn't go too far

yeah see those dont have the actual domain name in them tho right? xpost

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz board lawyering

so if someone shortened it to Q in their DN but it was still a clear reference to Mr. Que that'd be OK?

ksh watched South Park last week

what's the reference? last episode I saw was the Facebook one tbf

not really sure what we're arguing about at this point or why tbh, i think that these sorts of requests are reasonable and that mod policy is kinda established on this, so?

this thread is gay

wd everyone!

u didn't say "you are acting entitled", but if u want to spin it like yr infallible, w/e.

I apologize for saying "I don't like posters" as opposed to "I don't like it when posters", then. TBH I didn't think that was a particularly inscrutable, hard-to-parse piece of rhetoric.

HI DERE no hate but you are definitely one of the most furious posters on ilx when even the smallest morcel of shit hits the fan. like, in my head your posts in this thread are all spoken with nostrils fuming and through clenched teeth with your hands on zvookster's shirt collar and stray gobules of spit spraying out of your mouth.

this thread has a case of the mondays

yeah i think "in my head" is kinda the key aspect of that post right there

loooooooool samosa

no, he is otm xp

in my head every time that whiney posts he is vigorously hula hooping his way to a guinness book world record, but i bet that is not actually the case

i read a lot of people's posts in a voice/character and that sounds about right to me too

jjj's posts are mostly just a guy yelling

oh shit you have spies in my house

; )

wow hahaha shit almost forgot to change my dn back before i posted on non77

this is otm, and personally i feel that when both/all sides of an argument are being a little hostile (but far from over the line) and the one that happens to be a mod decides at one point to tempban the other as a trump card/argument ender, it's a fucking bully move and the other mods shouldn't just stand around letting that seem totally fine and dandy.

i mean i hate to break it to you guys but as much as the mods love to act like the downtrodden unappreciated underclass, you still have all the what-amounts-to-"power"-around-here and should feel some obligation not to throw your weight around anytime you're feeling a little pissy.

There's pretty much no way to respond to that. If you really don't think calling people names is over the line, then we aren't going to agree. It's pretty much established on this thread that people read what I write from the standpoint of frothing fury regardless of how I'm actually feeling. Add those two things together and basically any time I do anything, I am overstepping my bounds and being a bully.

*shrug*

i admire kevin's suicide cop routine

There's pretty much no way to respond to that.

comedy tempban is really yr only option

jeez. as the pissant who started all of this, i apologize. if i had known it would have triggered a 50 post clusterfuck, i would have just let it go. i'm sorry i ever bothered.

i kind of think if you mouth off to mods, you're gonna get tempbanned, it's pretty simple math.

i made a simple request. i did it in a nice way, and the peanut gallery freaked out. my request may be weird and overly sensitive, but i can live with that.

sorry dudes.

I dunno, "clueless, longwinded goof" just didn't seem especially strongly worded as far as insults go around here, and if a non-mod requested a temp ban for a non-mod over being called that, I can't say I'm 100% convinced that request would be taken seriously. xpost

I mean there's personal attacks and derogatory nicknames, and then there's plain harmless sassmouth.

^this is pretty otm -- i'm kind of assuming that kevin will be unbanned tomorrow a la WHO GIVES A SHIT-gate

^^^this

i kind of think if you mouth off to mods, you're gonna get tempbanned, it's pretty simple math.

just go home and eat a sandwich

l8r

actually probably as soon I as get ready to leave work as I don't really plan on spending any time on ILX tonight so in like 30 minutes

yeah I'm sure it's a given that it'll be a pretty brief ban -- but if anything that just bolsters mods' ability to go "IT'S JUST A 24-BAN, WHAT'S THE BIG DEAL, HEY WHAT'S THAT OVER THERE OH NEVERMIND" and get away with craven gotcha moves like this over and over and over and over

ha 24-hour ban

24-carat ban
