    Then keep it to PMs. You think you are being treated unfairly, I think you are getting what you deserve.

    They were making a valid point.

    And Mike, I'm completely baffled by that infraction. It's honestly the stupidest thing I think I've seen on here. There are TONS of posts on here where people make jokes about less than legal or less than morally correct things. It happens all the time, and if it's clearly a joke (As this was) and not personal to anyone posting than I don't get why everyone else doesn't get infractions for it.

    Some have expressed concern that an unpleasant thread in the QR is "ruining BP.net", however, the QR was placed here for all of those unpleasant threads that we don't want cluttering up the public spaces. For the people who wish to have the freedom to express themselves in such topics, it is there. For those who don't wish to see them, the QR can be turned off.


    The locking of threads in the QR would be an extremely rare event...simply because doing so would rather defeat its whole purpose.
    Yeah, the rules still apply but the QR wasn't made for the pleasant thread.

    But above all I really don't get why Mike is getting singled for this. I can go back in just the last month and find loads of worse posts that weren't even in QT.

    Why can't he say something about it? It's not like it's the first time the mods or admins have threatened or enacted infractions under sketchy circumstances, why should he need to keep it private?

    The initial thread is already public. It is not the forum members decision. It is the mods/admins decision.

    I just don't think a PERSONAL matter like this needs to be brought to the attention of the entire forum.

    What did you do? Let me count the ways..

    You operate barely within the rules. If it was my decision (which it isn't) you would get infracted (or at least warnings) for much more than you actually do.

    You are the one who responded to this thread.

    Must be a big deal since here we are again.

    If you felt like you were treated unfairly YOU could have appealed your infraction to one of the admins, instead YOU blew it out of proportion making a public scene which did not help the matter.

    Now more of the same here still stuck on the same "not such a big deal issue" because you did not get the answer YOU wanted in a timely fashion manner ( mind you that some people do not seat around all day and can only address issues at the end of their work day)

    So now, do you feel that if it had been addressed the proper way to start with we would not even be here?

    Do you think this specific thread obviously started on your behalf (wonder why YOU did not start it ) is gonna go anywhere?

    Right back at you.

    Lucky for us you run nothing. If I have something I feel is important I will always open my mouth. I'm no sheep.

    By the way barely within the rules still is within the rules.

    This thread was about the overall argument not that certain thread.

    I already said why I didn't send it in a PM. This should be and deserves to be public.

    I'm not trying to attack or offend the mods. I just think things could and would be better if they were handled in a better way.
