what a bunch of morons

 

[Mandi]

What the hell? That's some lame shit right there! What "creative" punctuation did you use?

 

[Starship Coyote]

I mentioned this in the "Fuck Shal" thread, but it deserves its own thread.

A strict interpretation of rules like that is not a road the staff there want to take. Above and beyond people like DS, GTC, RobL, and myself...there are some pretty expressive people there who say some controversial things.

DS}(Warning

 

[eloisel]

Darth, Darth, Darth .... what kind of expressive punctuation did you use? This curious mind wants to know how periods, exclamation points, commas, semicolons, colons, open quotes, close quotes, and question marks can become pornographic!
???!!...,,;:???
is it a new kind of Morse Code?

 

[DarthSikle]

lol, look above.

I tell ya, it's funny as shit though.

 

[DarthSikle]

so is that a second "official" warning or now that I've been suspended do I go back to zero warnings??

 

[Mandi]

Guess I better just keep my mouth shut over there. With my luck, i'd get suspended on my first real post.

 

[eloisel]

Are you saying this is what got you suspended in AQG:

DS}(Warning
??????

 

[Random]

Now ain't that just an interesting way of saying 'fuck you'?

 

[Caitriona]

DS}(Warning

This is what got you a suspension? Oh good grief!

 

[eloisel]

Now ain't that just an interesting way of saying 'fuck you'?

Yeah, but you'd have to tell me that is what it meant or I wouldn't know.

 

[Starship Coyote]

Hello? Same here. This is lame beyond belief.

 

[Virginia]

you may say it is lame beyond belief coyoteugly, but do you honestly expect us to believe what you said over there? that you had no idea what was being insinuated? i don't think so.

 

[eloisel]

Wait a minute - the ban notice says it was a representation of sodomy via "creative" punctuation.

 

[Starship Coyote]

you may say it is lame beyond belief coyoteugly, but do you honestly expect us to believe what you said over there? that you had no idea what was being insinuated? i don't think so.

a) What you think doesn't matter.
b) You speak only for yourself, not for others, so fuck that "us" shit.
c) Yup. Dead serious.

 

[eloisel]

Okay - after looking at it for a bit, and being told what it means, I can see how the }( could be taken as a sexually threatening remark.

Why weren't you asked to edit that out then? I mean, somebody could have fixated on that symbolism and worked themselves up into a lather.

 

[eloisel]

So, good on you, Virginia. My brain isn't on auto pilot to see vulgarity in every freaking thing.

 

[Virginia]

coyote
a) neither does what you think, so we're even
b) yes, that is why I started the sentences with my opinion with 'i'.
you however, posted on a forum to multiple people, therefore necessitating the use of an 'us' you are trying to convince. however not being an exisler, you're right, i should have used the 'them' form.
c) hah. i don't believe it.

Somebody should go through Drew and G1981's posts and compile a list of all of their violations.
