Is this Inappropriate Language deserving infractions ?

I was harassed by Ophiolite, so i had to revolt, the mods didnt stop his actions, i wonder why. Below is the message and this is the thread http://sciforums.com/showthread.php?t=64115&page=2

Hi singularity

i share your pain.

Take care

*shrug*
ive got "private" infractions from a certain mod that just doesnt like me.

hint: it wasnt bells or jamesr.

 

U mean this is fascism ?

 

I got 54 infractions, and I'm nowhere near as bad as you guys.

 

Its shocking that they are giving infractions for good advise.

So if a woman gets raped , she will be sued for saying anything bad to the rapist ?

Its like GOD, first make the person suffer through the politicians and then not help them for killing those blood suckers. Instead the dead politicians will be known as a greate person who gave his life for the nation and the good guy will be known as a Terrorist or something.

 

That would be telling.

Let me guess ,

was it Q ?

I mean what will happen to a forum/nation when power is in hands of a chaotic adhoc indecisive numb senseless moderator ?

 

About half of all the text on this board is personal insults...but people seem to like it that way. If it wasnt allowed half the members would quit.

Insulting people you dont know from behind a screen is above all...easier.

 

let me clue you people in on something.
a mod will not follow you around on the board unless other members report your posts.
once you find yourself on a mods [ENC]shitlist [/ENC]you're screwed, unless of course you can somehow convince them you know what you are talking about.

if a mod gave you an infraction the chances are good that someone else reported it, so blame the posters not the mods

 

Excellent point.

That says we should be able to give infractions to eachother directly since it all depends on if someone pressed the report button instead of using a Brain.

 

i have no idea what this is on about

 

No, you shouldn't. Too much power in the hands of a crowd and unchecked people is not a good idea.

 

This is about what a member feels like when an unjustified infraction is shoved through her throat.

 

o.....k

 

Hmm, lets think about this,

a) Too much power for all

b) Abuse of power by few lucky

Make your choice.

But remember to think, how will be there misuse of power if all have it the same ie. "Dont screw me, since i can screw U equally bad"

 

Well, A would lead to B. But wait, I read the thread in the first post. You don't believe that humans landed on the moon? Come on...

 

I better avoid experiencing mass screwings. Anarchy doesn't look good even on paper.
