election day..should faramir/joel be banned?

    • Gold Top Dog
    I found this forum after Joel was already banned. Went back and read post from 10 - 4 - 2006 - Remember Joel. 5 pages.
     
    I vote stay. Just be nice.
     
    Besides how does anyone know for sure that the other people who have been banned aren`t back also the same way faramir/joel got back on.

    Mollymoo,
     
    I'd assume it'd be because THOSE people if here...learned from their previous banning enough to NOT act the some way a second time, and thus draw attention to the fact that they have flipped their middle fingers at the moderators.
     
    That's what's missing here...do you notice?

    If others have been banned & come back it is different, they have actually minded their manners or they would have been found out again.

    There's one person named "snowball" who keeps coming back again & again but like other banned people he/she doesnt have enough common sense to "fly under the radar", and he/she keeps getting banned time & time again.

    There isnt a problem if someone who has caused problems comes back and doesnt cause any problems at all. This, obviously isnt the case.

    Drop it Joel, it isnt up to us forum members, it's up to Jamie. You need to pick up a hobby or something....And calling people mean names isnt going to help you at all.One would think you would try to be extra nice but I see that isnt going to happen.

    excellent point...i know for a fact that there are...
     
    also, i wasn't "outed"...i posted pictures, for crying out loud.
     
    anyway, i just recieved a secret ballot, vote yes, by e-mail.
     
    the poor woman was AFRAID to post publicly, for fear of the kgb types here.

    Joel, why do you think that the rules shouldn't apply to you?
    • Gold Top Dog
    sooner, i think jaime should get rid of me...eventually...since i broke the rules before.
     
    boys break rules...girls giggle...what can i say?

    I don't think I was even around when faramir got banned and I have no clue to the why's and what's about it all. (althought I kinda wanta know)

    I do have to say his post really make me think about what I type and have given me a new way to look at differnt subjects. We have seemed to set our standards on what to exspect of the members on this forum that when a new and compleatly different openion walks in it opens up a whole new world. I find it fun and thats one of the several things that keep me comming back.

    I can't vote yes or no because I don't know what was so terriable in the beguinig to cause such a debate that made him banned. I do enjoy his post, as much as I don't agree 100% with them I still find them fun to read.

    Really?
    you found his post on removing a dog's leg to stop it chasing squirrels, fun to read and insightful? You saw some validity and usefulness to it, you saw some purpose in it other than to stir crap?
    Well...okay. To each their own...

    And such a post can still be referenced today?  No thank you.

    I relly have not read enough of his post to vote. From his most recent ones I find them fun to read but I never read the one about removing a dogs leg or any you just described. I am in no position to judge the guy because I don't know much about him. I do, however, see him as a person who has some outside openions that we often do not hear everyday that add some value to the general disscussion. Many are afrade to post because they know their ideas are wong but that does not stop them from thinking that way. I do enjoy hearing how others think, this helps myself evualuate how I deal with people in the future. Like I said I may not agree with anything he says.

    I'm indifferent, but this is providing me with entertainment.

    gina, if you were at all honest, you would have at least mentioned in passing, that the context of the leg-cutting post was to highlight and satirize the way people are so easy about cutting off a dog's testicles...
    • Gold Top Dog
    Dpu not sure what you mean...please do elaborate.
    The mind and person behind that post is right here...it is still quite valid in my book.
