    If there was a rule that stated "no posting pornographic pictures of yourself or other members." I would have honored it.

    It might not have been explicitly against the rules, but it's still kind of skeevy, and not the kind of thing people want to see.

    Especially when most people who clicked the thread were probably expecting a rooster.
  • You can change. You can.
    That's quite a literal way of looking at the rules.

    The rules don't say "Don't harass other people over PMs"

    Doesn't mean I could do that.

    Maybe it should be a rule then.

    This is starting to feel like the supreme court.

    "If there was a rule that stated "no posting pornographic pictures of yourself or other members." I would have honored it."

    Rules change over time because there are some things that we just don't expect to happen that shouldn't happen. Case in point, what happened last night.

    Then make it a rule and I will be forced to comply

    And for the record, @Juan_Carlos, not that I'm not on your side here, but we do have rules against harassment, period.

    "2b. Do not start or continue dramafests. If you have problems with other users, talk to moderators or to the users in question privately. Abuse, harassment, and trolling (intentionally posting stuff to annoy people) are not allowed." Emphasis mine.

    I don't see why it should be a rule. We can't write rules on what is supposed to be decent behaviour and expected from our posters. It'd be ridiculous.

    And the worst part is that the whole thing was already against the rules. Rule 1i was already there for a long time now. 

    Wait, nvm. Although I was sure we had a rule on just linking NSFW after the whole pony/lolicon thing.

    ^It was more of an off-hand example. Didn't look at the rules to check. 
  • Has friends besides tanks now
    ^ Fair enough. My point in pointing it out is that we have the bases covered, but one of the jobs of moderators is to revise the rules as they see fit every now and then.

    I admit that I shouldn't have just made it an image, and should have linked it instead. But besides that, I didn't break a single rule.

    Actually, because of Rule 2b, but next plan is ruined. I was going to make an influx of penis linked threads, which the mods would be pressed to lock, but couldn't ban me for because it isn't against the rules. That said, it WOULD be against the rules because it would constitute trolling. It would also be needlessly childish, so I won't do it anyway.
  • Gelzo - Still want to say there's no drama here?


    Come on, please let's not fall out over a picture of a penis. That's just ludicrous. What happened happened and the mods are taking the position that it shouldn't happen in future. Case closed, surely?

    ^^ You didn't technically break any rules at the time, but it inspired us to change the rules because we didn't think it was okay to do, especially given the sense of humor of this forum. I locked the thread mostly for the "Suck it up, pussies! :D" comment, because I felt like the argument would have become worse if it had been carried out in that mindset.

    So this time, all that's coming of this is a new rule. Fair enough?

    If a new rule gets added to the list of rules, then I'll be satiated.

    It didn't explicitly break a rule, but it did kind of cross a line, I think.

    I wouldn't want to be part of a forum where posting your dick is an acceptable thing.

    ^^ The rule is there now, for the record. It was since soon after I locked the thread, if you'd checked the thread when Glenn made his most recent post like you're supposed to.

    nvr.

    Do you mean this rule?

    1j. The mods reserve the right to reformat or outright remove any images
    or other content deemed unacceptable, even if the thread containing
    them is already marked 'NSFW'.
  • You can change. You can.
    1i. Do not post pornographic content (images, text, videos, etc.) or NSFW images in general on the forum. You may discuss "not safe for work" (NSFW) topics and link to NSFW material, but it must be CLEARLY marked.

    He means this
  • $80+ per session
    Okay. It was linked to. So unlock the thread.
  • You can change. You can.
    The thread was not locked because of the pingas involved.

    The thread was locked because of the "Suck it up, pussies" comment. 

    Were it me, I'd just thump the post and then sink the thread, because let's face it, it's a rather inoffensive thing. But it was done in just the right dose of annoying.
  • Till shade is gone, till water is gone, into the Shadow with teeth bared, screaming defiance with the last breath, to spit in Sightblinder’s eye on the last Day.
    It's not like the thread would get any real discussion or comments other than "wat" or "lol penis," anyway. What would the point of unlocking it now be?

    It was a stupid joke, let's just let it die quietly.

    Well Unfortunately/Fortunately, you aren't a mod, Juan.
  • You can change. You can.
    I don't think that makes my input any less valid. Only less effective.
  • One foot in front of the other, every day.
    let's not fall out over a picture of a penis


    This is the best phrase in the thread for a wide variety of reasons, but especially two:

    1. It is extremely sensible.
    2. Say it out loud. You'll understand.
  • You can change. You can.
    but alex

    this is ijbm

    where would we be, as an institution, if we didn't engage in silly dramatics over silly little things every few weeks?

    NOWHERE, I TELL YOU

    ^^ IJBM drama is best drama, too.

    On the other hand, getting worked up over cock is faggotry.
