Thanks so very much for posting the CoC in all the threads.
The CoC is a tool, which should be used when people go crazy and try to hurt the community(example el diablo and incubus). It is there when you need it. But to use the CoC in a narrow viewed, myopic way in order to force your will upon the members of this community is, I believe, an abuse of the power given to the mods.
Instead of helping keep the community running well, it seems that mods are purposefully trying to be heavy handed basically saying, "Do as I tell you too or I'm gonna hurt you."
Why do you guys think you need a club to keep everyone in line? Has anyone really done anything that is that harmful? No.
Stop trying to be people's parents, and go back to being people's friends.

I hope you aren't implying that I don't follow the rules. Because I would consider that an insult.

With all my respect, are you not the creator of a spam thread which has been deleted now? In that thread of yours you confessed that thread was a spam.
Quote: The situation now, has gotten worse. Moderators are acting as babysitters, or worse, hostile catholic school teachers ready to smack your hand with a big stick. Perhaps some of it has been an effort to make the community better.. but it's gotten a little bit out of hand, and if it doesn't stop soon, we'll lose a lot of great posters
Above quote from Pandora explains the situation very well I suppose.
Ppl did not always followed every rule of the CoC in the past. Ppl sometimes broke the CoC...slightly... Even MoDs sometimes did thigs against CoC in the past. But it was tolerated unless it was an extreme situation or on really bad and harmful intentions. What is all this fuss about?
What is wrong in Bort creating another thread instead of posting here?

It was yours... I am not talking about the spam show. It was a thread which you started last week or about. I can't remember exactly the title of the thread. But, you said that (in your post) that thread was a spam and was going to be deleted in a couple of days

One person's joke is another person's spam.
Therein lies the problem.
Different people use different styles to communicate the same thing. While one poster may write a 10,000 word essay, documented with reems of support material, another may fire off a cleaver one liner. (personally I prefer the one liner than reading some incoherant rant that makes my eyes bleed).
Spam is annoying. But most stuff here that is labled spam is actually people trying to be funny. It is not their fault that they are too unintelligent to see that they really aren't that funny. I say that we should lay off using the word spam to describ most of these posts.

you know OldTimer your right!
The supposed "spam" that i thought I saw was just a little fun trying to bring activity back to the tavern. As I stated before I am sorry, and it is done and over with now, just let the old dog be.

Does this mean that I'm 2 posters (I do both forms of posting.).
From now on, I wish to be addressed as "borts"

Nothing to be sorry for Kitten, I support any attemps at humor and was not directing any slight to you. I was actually trying to say that people are too quick to lable other's ideas as spam, the post just wasn't well writen.
bort I wouldn't know if you you write those unbearable longwinded, poorly puncuated, impossible to read posts...If your post is longer than three inches I just assume you put on yout psuedo-intellectual cap and are trying to impress the kiddies. (I do scan them for oneliners but usually am disappointed)

I did not remind that to make you sorry, or to get an apology. I just wanted to remind you that when you started that thread, noone hurled at you, or "reminded" you the rules
referral:
Quote: Well, rules are rules follow them, if you do not like rules set I am very sorry, I did not set them. I have to follow them so should everyone else!
Quote: I do not know HOW many threads I have posted the CoC in but It NEEDS TO BE FOLLOWED!!! If you guys enjoy this board as you say you do then follow the rules as simple as that.
Quote: these opinions could not have been posted in OldTimers thread? I belive so!
