Matter of fact, go over to Supraforums, CL, or some other large and hell even small forum and throw around the "N word" at people like you did. See what happens. Matter of fact, just talk badly about some "high up's" car and see what happens. Every other forum bans people for tiny little offenses and yall keep whining about getting banned for calling someone a "N---er" straight up????Whatever dude.
I'm gonna tell you straight up....you were a douche for using that word directly at someone trying to be some cool dude. YOU think it's cool to do that, fine. Then don't whine when OTHERS think it's cool to ban you for it. It's that simple.
Besides, it's over and done with, so why keep on and on about it. Just don't use that word again. What's the big deal? Can you not do that? Or is that like a bra burning Supreme court type of stand?????
Really? So now you are the definitive answer as to what is "somewhat bad" and "worse"???? In other words, YOU found something offensive that someone else found "funny", right? How come someone can't do the same with you? I didn't think YOU calling someone a N---er was very funny, so there. How 'bout that? How's that any different than you not liking what someone else said???? Oh, wait, that's right.....I can ban and you can't. That's the only difference.
#1 We dont think it's a democracy at all, we saw the post julio made saying anything goes, and then when anything is posted, we 're banned. So we're just wondering when/why the rules changed and no one told us. You wanna make it nothing goes, that's your perogative, but just let us know so we dont piss off the wrong people.
#2 You're also forgetting most big forums have a WL or off topic section that will alow that kind of trash talk in a joking manner. As far as the bashing "higher-ups" that doesn't really go well here either, lolol. But most higher ups on other sites have a huge stick in their ass and a chip on their shoulder. Like i said, if there's certain things you dont want us doing, just let us know.. we'll be happy to follow the rules. But when a post is made by the OWNER of the site stating "do whatever" and then we get banned for it, we have the right to raise some questions about why we got banned for.. doing whatever.. INSIDE of our "limits" ( whoreslounge ).
#3 Correct me if i'm wrong, both of you, but i'm pretty sure what godfather is saying is, why did he get banned for the N word and someone making a direct attack towards him with 9/11 jokes didn't get banned? In a matter of opinion i'd say a personal attack on someone using 9/11 is far worse than a racial slur. People lost tons of friends and family in that... ****** i just a word.. :\
And i'm not here to argue or start **** or blah blah, i'm just saying, if you're going to ban people, at least let us know what's a bannable offense, whenever you guys set rules the majority of th IA follows, there are the 5% of jackasses that don't and they're banned usually for good within the first week anyways. lol. This is a fun forum and the WL is for entertainmentn purposes.. you gotta know you're gonna get joked on if you step in here... I can see how you could ban someone for saying "f uck" in another section of the forums, but that's because it's totally public and sponsors might want to see how this community is without all the joking. Anyways, just my.
