REMAIN CALM, ALL IS WELL!!

Duck!

That's some crazy shit right there.

I was thinking more along the lines of this...

I'm pretty sure I can see some visible landing gear on that pic.

*goes back to secret star chamber to discuss discipline options*

Ha! Jokes on you. You totally missed all those people with no shirts on. :D

way to box Macro while he's in the middle of a shitstorm in his personal life and is relying on this board for a lot of his venting and support.

This is a nice community of random people, but yeah if someone relying on it for support during hard times is boxed for three frickin months for re-posting that Spiderman pic, not very cool. Bleh.

These things always goes the same way for me:

"What? He was boxed? That is ridiculous!"

read some more.

"Oh, he reposted a deleted pic. Yeah, that is always a boxxing. But three months, ridiculous."

continue reading.

"Oh, he spam reported crap and made a nuisance of himself. Yeah, I see it now."

I believe he reported lady images that should've been removed if his image was removed. Ah whatever, not worth it.

Methinks Macro should have a convo w/ Ben over AIM or something. I'm assuming he can read the posts on the forums, but just can't post? Either way, I agree that 3 months is a bit excessive, especially for a guy in a fragile mental state. At the same time, maybe the three months away will give him the "me" time he needs to sort his shit out? I dunno, I'm just rambling now.

Love the sign....

Right. He was spam reporting images to try to prove his point (and annoy the mods in the process). Not going to win you arguments, and will usually end up getting you in more trouble.

Especially when they are incredibly sarcastic, snarky, and intended to elicit a negative response.

Who needs to worry about web filters when we have the mods here to get rid of people for us?

This is now relevant.

No he reported pictures that he felt were much more worse than the one he posted.

Yes. Spamming them to annoy. I get what he was doing. The same thing my 7 year old does when he gets in trouble (But She! but she!). It doesn't work with him either.

Don't get me wrong, this is not a democracy here and if someone doesn't like the rules, no one is keeping them from leaving.

Maybe he was trying to elicit a response that makes sense? If he has a point, he has a point, regardless if it's irritating. I have no idea if there was any back and forth before the boxing, between him and the mod, but, if he was boxed right away, with no response from whoever boxed him, well, that is just plain lazy. If a mod doesn't want to deal with that kind of stuff, then don't be a mod. Pretty simple.

The bigger tragedy here is that he was banned originally for 2 days then Ben comes along and makes it 3 months because you know, Ben hasn't been able to flex in a while.

Are banning lengths in the rules or are they at discretion?

I'm pretty sure they use random.org

IMO there needs to be no gray area with this thread. Either allow pictures of women or don't, there should be no in between because that is how people get boxed ( granted, MG deserved it, but not 90 days).

I say if you are going to delete certain pics delete either all of them or delete the whole thread.

3 months is way excessive. I've seen people spout of way worse crap and it is seen as being cute.

Granted though, there is no consistency in what is removed for female pictures and the only thing that is consistent is that it is inconsistent. Because of that, pretty easy to not post a female picture just to see if it hangs around or not. If you post one and it is removed, eh.. move along. If you post one and it stays, I guess the cop wasn't behind the billboard that time so, continue speeding on.

I'm glad I was not taking a drink when I read that.

GrantDawg is awesome. I could post 2+2=4 and if someone deleted it for some reason and I reposted it and went on a post reporting spree I wouldn't be surprised if I was banned permanently, regardless of whether or not the original deletion was right/wrong/stupid/absurd.

It's all Noop's fault. :D

This. I think the modding of pics is very inconsistent, and should be much looser. But you're not going to change it by getting banned, holding your breath, stomping your feet, etc. Just post reasonably, and if gets taken down, then oh well. You'll live.

And as the first post on the page:

this

maybe it's time to move along...

No reason to end tradition here.

DING!

Unless they have a Red Light Camera and you get hit 3 weeks later, as in Ronnie's case.

Uh oh...countdown

You are looking to get banned are you?

The hair covers everything up. It'd be like banning somebody for the Fantasia centaur pics.

I think the mods are gay

Are hot dude pix allowed?

I see nipples!

He's hotter than Kathy Ireland.

It's not the consistency of the mods that bothers me anymore, it just comes down to a simple equation.

What is better for the board:

1. The presence and posting of Macro

OR

2. The absence a of a sexy spiderman pic (or whatever it was), and the absence of Macro having some kind of pissing match with the mods.

I mean, #1 is better for everyone, except for skydog and wademoore, I guess. Nobody else gives a shit about #2. But because a couple of mods have hurt feelings, we lose out on #1 and gain nothing.

I have to say that I enjoy this thread a lot and every once in a while a hot chick picture will make my day. With that said I don't get why you guys think that posting hot chick pictures today is a good idea and I am sure there will be faux outrage when more people get banned. I am on summer break right now but this is the sort of shit that 6th graders would do to "question the man".

Then you are correct, you just don't get it. Why not just sit back and let the adults talk then? mmkay?

Did that actually get posted here?
