Kaz,
Remember this from a few weeks ago:
http://www.digitalsportspage.com/module ... ght=#91673"
There's a reason that you're often at the center of these forums arguments, and it's not because everyone has an agenda against you. The forums have been relatively peaceful lately, and I really don't want the same old inflammatory crap (DB has no girlfriend, PK is a yes man, etc.) to start things up again. Try and look and see why you're always involved in this crap, and take steps to stop it. I'm not spending all this time on this site to foster that kind of environment. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions.
Obviously you didn't listen. Your first post in this thread, even though it could have been a valid point (do people enjoy the rivalry in Parker? maybe...) was ruined by playing the whiny self-persecuted role ("someone will react angrily to this post
(because I made it)"). By doing that,
people will react. Then you say that you'll "do your part to cut down on the flame wars".
But not even a half-hour later, you don't stick to this. In fact, you go attack someone else's site (and editing the post to add a wink after the fact doesn't do much in changing the tone) and then try and cover it up (OS a dead forum? Come on. And it's obvious from BDoughty's sig that he's at SGN.) Both of these things are unacceptable.
You were already warned before about your behavior (see above), and you haven't learned a thing. So now you're going to have to take a timeout from the forums. I'll ban you later tonight, so you have a chance to get the last word in. After that, I'll lock the thread. This isn't a permanent ban...I'll listen to opinions from others on the site re: the length of the ban and whether it was fair or not. You can e-mail me (
editor@digitalsportspage.com) with any comments/requests.
Jackdog,
Why can't you let things lie occasionally? Your response to Kaz was fine until you brought up the Yes Men stuff...that brings up old feud crap, and gets us into this stupid flame war. Stop. This is a warning.
(And before you start complaining about unfair treatment Kaz, Jackdog isn't getting a temp ban because he's only got a warning. You've already been warned...this is your second offense, so you get a temp ban.)
And to everyone,
I'm instituting a new basic forum rule. If I'm sick of the way someone is acting, I'm temp banning them. Plain and simple. I'm really sick of having to deal with childish behavior, lying, constant bickering, etc. So now, I won't. If I temp ban someone, I'll always post why and let people discuss whether I've been too harsh or not (either publicly or via PM).
