There are many topics being hijacked by spamming, flaming and arguments.

Members involved know who they are, I have already addressed one or two in other threads at these forums, recently and also in the past.

Regardless of any disagreements you might have, please keep these opinions to yourself.

Any "Jump off the nearest cliff", or "Rabbit killer" abuse will be addressed with sincere punishment.

Many children use these forums and have been scared off lately by the atmosphere here. Destroyer's bloody hand pics are just some of the "items" I speak of.

I know members are entitled to their opinion, so if there is anything any members wish to say about these issues, please post your response to this thread only and no where else.

Thank you.

Thanks for doing this thread Knight.

I was involved with a sort of small discussion in the shoutbox with JB and rogbow seemed to call some of us hypocrites and then kept quiet which in my opinion made things worse.

Whilst I obviously agree anything that is not within the rules should be dealt with I think after his shoutbox comment robow cast a stone of his own so to speak.

His comment was unprovoked and uncalled for.

Don't get what the guys problem is....?

Thanks neeraffa, I am indeed talking about all of the friction that might be taking place here at ArcadeBoss, I am not singling anyone out, all trouble should be noted down in this thread, then we all know the score.

Please keep my name out of this. My "cliff" comment was fueled by the fact that someone said they broke a rabbit's back. That bothered me. I'm not causing any harm here so nobody mention me.

By the way, look at how long MindOverMatter got away with cursing in the shoutbox before anything was done to him.

I want to know if I'm going to lose credits when Lalin gets back. If credits are going to be removed from my account please do it now. Punishment should be done in a timely manner and not a few days later. Thank you.

Ok. This is the deal. I will take just 250 from all involved, including rogbow.

Only this for now, and I will publicly say here and now, as long as the atmosphere here improves and repairs to what could be considered a child-friendly place, where you would let your own 13 year old hang out, then no further credits will be removed.

250 credits is nothing when you have as many as I do but why the hell did I lose credits? I am not part of this "issue" that has been going on. I guess because of my history here I will be punished for anything that happens at Arcade Boss from now on. I am never voting for SOTS again. I didn't even vote last time.

Oh well then I can take more if you like.

Your bloody hand pictures (which you should know better than to post those on here) and provoking an argument.

Blood is offensive or wrong? I was never punished for that, why now? It wasn't in the forum rules about posting pics like that so it's not my fault. How did I provoke an arguement. I haven't been interested in starting any arguements here Knight. You can't tell me otherwise. I'd rather talk about music, sports or something else instead of focusing on starting an arguement. If you guys want to ban me then go ahead. I don't care anymore.

I'm with Destroyer. The pics you punished him for were from a couple of weeks ago. They weren't that bad either. Frankly, there is far worse on cable TV. As for him starting any arguments that is wrong too. He made 1 comment which you have referenced, but I was the catalyst and not him. He wasn't even replied to. He's been busy doing stuff with his music reviews and threads. He's been a model member. I get the feeling that this has become personal against the two of us. I'm begging you now, if you would just simply prefer us to go away say it now. I know I've talked about going, but if you say the word I'll respect you and go.

It's incredibly silly that a picture of a hand with a few bloody cuts on it are not allowed on a family friendly site. I am seriously depressed about how I get treated here. Which is why I gave away all of my credits. I'm not wanted around here so I'll just severely punish myself by taking away all my credits and just not talk here anymore if I am not wanted.


Knight you have cursed in the shoutbox at least 2 times that I know of and you have done it in the forum at LEAST 3 times that I remember. There's no denying that but you probally will.

Oh I found one example.....

You aren't perfect either.

I made a general comment and used no one's name. Show me proof where I specifically called you that. You and Joe however have used my name specifically along with others not only in the forum but in the shout box. Here's just one example..

I thought we were entitled to our own opinions. I used no profanity,I did not cuss or swear and I did not throw anyone under the bus by using their name. Big difference.

It's a bit silly that you don't realise that adults arguing or even contributing to a hard-line atmosphere and then posting pictures of their violent behaviour scares off young children. Those pictures, that you may have thought were innocent initially, actually add to a violent atmosphere that the administration does not welcome.

Well that is the only time in the 5 years I have been a member here that I have ever used bad language here. Furthermore I think in the case of a dictatorship government I was entitled to let off steam.

But for the sake of equality I accept that I broke the rules on that occasion.

However, as the case stands, no one is being picked on, I still intend to uphold my position here and not break any rules, and so should everyone else.


joe.Boxer wrote:

Indeed, I had made a post about them in the mod forum, but until now I had been distracted from addressing teh situation with him directly. I apologise for an apparent delay on that, but such pictures depicting a violent site membership are not pleasant to look at nor family friendly.

EDIT

Also, I'll repeat here for reference what I said in the shoutbox just now regarding Destroyer's moaning about being banned.

@Destroyer. I don't understand why you think you're being banned. You say this every time there is an argument. Have you ever been permanently banned though? No, that's why you're still here and that's why I think you should respect an overworked staff force a bit more. Do you know how many sites I work on? Not even I can count them off the top of my head. And do you know what I work for? Pennies. So before you think I have the easy life I certainly don't and if it wasn't for my ageing parents I'd have been kicked out of my home by that retard David Cameron like most other under 35's in this stinking country by now. There is no "pick on" - I am just one mod trying to kindly ask a handful of members to cool down a bit. If you can do that one little thing then we can all get along fine.

SO you think it's okay to leave a comment like that in the shoutbox obviously aimed at certain members and because you don't name names everything is great?

So after the post you made in this thread if I had posted IDIOT! but didn't mention your name would that have been okay too?

I lost credits too so the best thing you could do is take it like a man and move on....

ALSO - the animated gifs thread adds nothing to the forums and is just used to get the post count up in my opinion - and like you said 'I thought we were all entitled to our own opinion'... Well that is mine!
