Where's Biff?

[bearmick]

I don't know how to tell who is banned.

Regardless, that's hardly the point. The point is that this is the only forum I have ever been on where the Mods openly talk about people they have banned and also have private discussions with other members about those banned and the reasons.

This is also the only forum I haven't been banned from, so I'll happily deal with their quirks since they deal with mine.

It creates transparency. We get to know the arbitrary rules by which the mods choose whether we can continue to post or we are banned.

Total fucking bullshit. There is no transparency here. Like all forums the Mods do what they want. They sporadically share information usually with their friends. So only SOME know the reasons and who is banned. You want transparency? Then have a sticky with the names of the banned and the reasons they were banned. So stop with the transparency bullshit

Maybe this is time to learn the life lesson then: Become friends with those in charge so you are privy to the important stuff.

As I said though, one mod said that he's been pushing for a forum we can see where they state who is banned how long they are banned and why.

Yeah, something like that. I've been trying to remember and I can't. Like Village of the Banned.

Oh that would be good.

Shit - I know - we could use rep points to buy time off posters' bans whom we like. It could be corrupt as shit. Just think of the possiblities. I've always wanted to know what it feels like to be an Illinois politician but I don't want to go to jail, so this might be the closest thing.

Dooo it!!

What you just said is the opposite of the transparency you desire. Please stop talking now while you are behind. You make no sense

LOL that would be amazing. This whole forum would turn into a giant social experiment. Poor Biff would be SCREWED!

that was it. i look forward to that forum. i think it would be even cooler if banned posters could still post, only in that forum. so we could watch the buttfrustration.

First we'd have to fix the FRA tho'.

Another life lesson for you: The fact that I desire something, doesn't make it reality. I live in reality and have to accommodate that fact.


Also, don't be such a grumpy old man.

Now you know.... how we feel.... when you post....

It would be the best forum around.

BearsBud got banned for being the worst. Then you could see him cycle through his arguments as you presented them, only with the mods.

 

[HeHateMe]

These are great ideas. I also think if you get banned you should lose all of your rep.

What is the FRA? Is that the term for the "algorithm" they use to assign us REP?

Yes, the Faulty Rep Algorithm. If it's fixed, forii domination can be ours! We could even get the Shoopster back.

LOL this idea sounds incredible. The mods need to make it happen!

 

[HeHateMe]

Rep Algo wasn't broken. It was built this way.

You will never get the Shoopster back...
