Why do I always have to do this? Options

Its amazing that people can't understand the incredibly simple concept :

This is Lance's site. He allows us to use it. On his private site, he has ever right to enforce any rules he sees fit.

Lance delegates the ability to enforce rules, to his mods.

So you can either comply, leave, or just make more of a fool of yourself.

my usual response to this scenerio is option 3

and here's the dilema

so the mods are being accused of power tripping and trying to make the boards less annoying. That kinda goes both ways.

So Brandon is saying he would retaliate by making it even more annoying, thus negating the original plan and implying they'd be best off just putting up with the current amount of Brandon on the boards.

It all makes sense really.




there's just one thing that i find interesting. Is that someone would be the kind of person that would spend more time and energy being annoying just to prove a point that he...can be annoying? That's not a title I'm sure anyone wants to fight for.


So personally I'm siding with the mods because I do feel that some of your stuff gets annoying. Your boobie avatar really didn't bother me because the chicks face made her look like she had down syndrome. However if you're gonna get so buttsore about having rules enforced upon you that you'd actually try to make this place worse, I'd suggest you to just not visit this site for awhile anyway. Techsans.net shouldn't have that large of a role in anyone's life.

no, i got buttsore because instead of asking me politely to please change my avatar, spectatrix gets on AIM while i'm at work, and says "goddammit brandon, you need to change your fucking avatar" i don't respond well to bully treatment, it usually has the opposite affect. when johnathan83 asked me a long time ago nicely to change it, i did so immediately with no issues. bad avatars are on here all the time. i feel i've been pretty good about not posting NSFW stuff in offtopic lately

posting NSFW things isnt all THAT bad because the mods can change it. changing the avatar to NSFW material is kinda bad because the mods cant do anything about it. Brandon knows this and is taking advantage of it. I suppose he is trying to make a statement. If the mods would just leave most things alone except NSFW tags, would that appease Brandon? Its hard to say, but I guess in the end it doesnt matter because Rocky is right.

Well, ya see Brandon, it's like talking to a child. First, you talk to it kindly. Usually, the child stops for a while, and then goes back to doing what he did in the first place. In such case you must use stricter discipline to get your point across. If you had learned your lesson in the first place then maybe you wouldn't have to have been "bullied".

I didn't know about jonathan83 asking you to change an avatar. I DID know about Woody asking you to change you clitoral stimulation avatar... which you didn't. Lance had to get on your account and edit your avatar. You had your "homo" avatar and I thought that was fine. Yeah, it was kinda NSFW, but someone would have to be staring over your shoulder for a while to be able to *realize* that it's NSFW. Then you post this boobie crap and should should KNOW by now that NSFW avatars/sigs are NOT ok. So of course I wasn't polite. I'm polite if I think you don't know the rules, rude if I know damn well you do.

And the only bad avatars I've seen on here since the board reset have been yours. Except perhaps JRock's last one... UGH. That was pretty bad too.

Yeah, we're talking about board stuff on AIM now. I think Brandon should be back to "one strike" since he wasn't aware there was a problem with the first avatar (the clitoral stimulation one).
