  1. There is NEVER a ***bleep*** moderator around when they are needed!!!

Je ne déteste pas m'assoir sur les ToS, de temps en temps... Do you know what! I am so bisexual bilingual I didn't even realise that you were writing in French.

  6. Muletta wrote: 1 Corinthians 6:12 Exactly! In the same way that soldiers are legally permitted to kill, whereas civilians are not. I would have said "in general" but you might have got confused by the kernel of my argument and asked why the South African Army used to have white officers with black privates. Or why many navies had Sub Lieutenants before submarines were even invented.[pace Leonardo da Vinci]
  7. genius656 wrote: My account banned if I can find out the cause and whether it can be recovered. On the basis of the minimal evidence you offer, I would suggest that perhaps it might have been because of a misunderstanding.
  8. KarenMichelle Lane wrote: Why in heavens name was any of this threads previously posts pulled? Maybe because hypersensitive incomprehension led to them being RICked, with the moderators exercising no quality control over the disciplinary protocols?

  10. Dresden Ceriano wrote: I think you're definitely using it incorrectly. LLewd was referencing your nationality, not your race. And anyway, it would be self-deprecating; the Scots are only the Welsh that tried to swim to Ireland, but got lost. [Apart from the ones that are the part-descendants of Scandinavian rape and pillage]
  11. Magnus Brody wrote: Magnus Brody wrote: No, I don't think FIFY! I think that's what you originally posted, and edited 3 times. Hmmm, I can't find anything in the ToS about it being a disciplinary offence to edit a post. In fact, perhaps you might consider doing so to yours so that they make more sense, as your formatting of quotations leaves much to be desired in terms of cogency.
  12. Magnus Brody wrote: It's Magnus, with a G and an N, no R and no C. What ARE you talking about? Or perhaps you are having an identity crisis?
  13. Madelaine McMasters wrote: A bank is the best place to get lots of money quick as long as you have a big gun. FIFY! [Even ignoring the fact that most of the hypersensitive whingers - if the cap fits, wear it - have tissue texture integument.]
  14. I agree Pam. In fact, I would take it further and suggest that a set of guidelines specific to General Discussions should be stickied, reiterating the point of the GD forum, but also (for the mods benefit as much as participants) the differential treatment of posts which contained contentious opinions - which is what this forum is supposed to be about! What might be considered flaming elsewhere in the forums is the lifeblood of a discussion-focused forum, otherwise you might as well rename it a "Me Too" forum. Questions asked in it should NOT have simple answers which might easily be extracted from reference sources elsewhere in LL's web properties, but should demand personal opinion. Disciplinary offences should be things like: * Offering an opinion without justification * Posting a non-cogent argument * Indicating agreement and adding nothing else to the debate * Posting LOLcats [OK, that last one might seem a bit harsh, but generally such images offer little insight into an individual's viewpoint.]

Racist because you rely on the fundamental underpinning which is racism, this being "The belief that all members of each race possess characteristics, abilities, or qualities specific to that race". Not all Scots regard Rab C Nesbitt to be the "acme of wit" and to suggest, as you have, is a racist stereotyping. Methinks the lady doth protest o'ermuch. [PS The Scots aren't a race; they don't even want to govern themselves.] Methinks you are an idiot, that doesn't mean I'm right. Methinks you have made a racist remark and built upon it, that is readable and clear. Mewonders what you'll be called next week. Forgive me for interjecting here but I believe you are misusing the term 'racist'. Correct me if I am wrong. You, of course, are not wrong. Calling the Scots a "race" would be like suggesting that the inhabitants of South Carolina were a race apart.

Down on our luck we all hope for kindness, we never expect it, but we don't need to join a religious organisation to hope for it. I much prefer honesty to kindness. And repenting at my leisure rather than running the human race.

You're getting a bit optimistic there... Not sure if you're being sarcastic, but the 5 year estimate feels reasonable to me, I have many top-notch homes, and furniture, and what not. First SL2 has to be released; and then I project it will really take several years ere the same level of variety and quality, akin to SL, will be available. And that's assuming it will gain maximum traction from the get-go, that is. I project SL V2 will launch two years late, will have disastrous faults, and will take the existing SL down with it. No, that's not sarcastic.

[PS You messed up the formatting of your post so not just noobs are going to be confused by it.] [PPS I have been asked to clarify that I am not accusing Magnus of actually being Rab C Nesbitt; or any relation to him.]

To be clear, I have no problem with people coming to the forums to ask their questions, I just think they should be doing it in the appropriate place. Hey Magnus, perhaps you could help, and, where relevant click the link at the bottom left of every post here if that post is inappropriately located. The Community Guidelines even exhort participants to help the moderators by doing so: Report inappropriate content for moderator review Moderating a discussion site is a daunting task; our forums alone see in excess of 10,000 posts per week. You can help by reporting abuse when you spot it. If you see a post you feel violates the Community Participation Guidelines, or our Terms of Service, then please click the Report Inappropriate Content link that appears in each post, and let us know why you feel the post is inappropriate.
