I don't know why we allow disgusting creepers and overall shitty people to have more than an hour to thrive on this board.

Probably the same reason we allow people to jump on newbies and bully them when they've no ideas as to the stance of the site yet. Oh, and because we're all shitty creepers in our own disgusting little ways.
Good thing we're not throwing stones in all these glass houses now, eh?

Is this really still about what I think it is .. ?
C'mon guys, you make me sad. Isn't the good thing about this site that we're all a bunch of weirdos and it's all cool to get a chance?
Edit: Okay, prolly not. But the point still stands. There are mods n bans when people act too much out of line. Doesn't matter why.

LockeZ

I'd really like to get rid of LockeZ. His play style is way too unpredictable. He's always like this too. If he ran a country, he'd just kill and imprison people at random until crime stopped.

Is this about musicals again? Anyone who admits to liking those is definitely a disgusting creep.

For my own part, I'm surprised that a place like Hongfire didn't/couldn't help more.
Because not everything that's disgustingly creepy is inherently bad, and because sometimes a shitty person is more useful than scores of nice people.

f-g did you really just use this of all things as a chance to toot your own horn
It was either that or call someone else a shitty person. Not exactly a win/win situation, but I figure I did the right thing.
i mean you used to be pretty shitty i guess. i think you're less shitty now though, for better or worse

There's being a weirdo and there is being a disgusting fuck. The former can be excused while the latter is guaranteed to make people feel uncomfortable knowing that the person exists. Like, I hope you are aware there actually are people who wouldn't dare venture onto these forums precisely due to the fact that these toxic people exist.
Also, making a public announcement that you like slavery porn and calling people "libertards" when asked to actually have tact isn't out of line?

Oh yeah, because expecting an individual to act in a tactful manner and criticizing them when they threaten the community's environment is "bullying." I'm sure Max Mcgee also thought he was "bullied" when we lashed out at him for spewing his misogynistic, homo/transphobic vitriol. This self-victimization is always the best card to pull for these people.
This entire post just sodomized my god damn mind.

You're not only undermining the point, you are also seriously placing yourself on a pedestal? Shut the fuck up.

I'd rather not arbitrarily call someone else a shitty person just to make a point, so what I did was actually the better way of doing it. But hey, since you think Max is such a shitty person*, I guess we can look at his contributions to the community instead.
*Disclaimer: Although I disagree with Max's opinion on certain things, I don't think they're a shitty person.
I like variety in my forums
without these people this place would be too happy and then we would all feel weird bitching about all the little things we bitch about
We need people like that to bounce off of
Otherwise I think we'd all go postal in real life

For the record, pretty sure we're not talking about Max in this topic, but that he's being dragged in as 'supplemental' material. There are other people whose first posts on the site seemed to be pretty damning but who actually got their acts together after being talked to and are now productive members, but no, let's all dump on a new guy who literally just joined up two days earlier. Good job being inclusive and tolerant there, guys.
I mean, people get a chance to redeem themselves from their first impressions - it's about treating people equal. Someone makes a mistake, they get talked to about it and where they go from there is up to them. If they continue causing issues, they'll get banned, but if they actually don't do that then good! They're members and more than welcome to stay.
Get over it, because it's been dealt with already, even if YOU weren't a party to see what happened behind the scenes.
Also, Max isn't a shitty person. I've actually had some quite great conversations with him in the past. He's just a person who has ideals that I (and many others on the site) don't personally agree with and his way of posting is definitely very in your face and confrontational, but he's just as much a shitty person as anyone else who is in-your-face demanding about stuff and not letting shit go.

I also think it's backwards to advocate for cleaning up the forums but then relentlessly attack and keep up a thing with someone that has different views and likes even well after it's over.
Like, I get it. The topic was closed so you felt the need to just have to get that off your chest.

You realize you don't have to have an ounce of moral credibility to contribute anything, right? You're saying I should bow down and kiss an asshole's toes because they contributed to the site? Bullshit. If you support trash you'll get more trash.

I like variety in my forums, too! We do that by purging the shitlords who go out of their way to make certain groups of people feel uncomfortable about posting here. Take off the blindfold; we actually don't have as much variety as you think.
Why would people feel uncomfortable about posting here because one user likes slave porn? They should be much more afraid of posting from people that attack them for having different ideas.
Like, you don't see that? That's a much more legitimate reason for someone to feel self conscious about posting. It's the peanut gallery that jumps on people they deem gross.
