That to me is assinine and self serving. The entire point of having a BB is to debate and discuss different viewpoints on everything from football to politics with an obvious slant twords our beloved chiefs. Considering every subject has a diferent viewpoint and those viewpoints are discussed here, things are going to get heated from time to time. (Actually those can be some of the most entertaining discussions.)
For everyone to have to live in fear now of Parker removing them from the BB for arguing would destroy the entire BB IMO. I truly hope Parker removes this thread and comes up with something much more specific or better yet just drop the whole thing as I feel more rules will only make our Planet a less enjoyable experience.

BIG DADDY

Not picking a fight just stating the obvious.


Parker, IMO got fed up with a fool this am. I can't say that I blame him. ...... I think his post is refering the to the fool. I know if I was a MOD, I wouldn't want everyone who doesn't like what someone says or what another MOD does, pulling me into it, semding smokes/emails........ Hell if your not adault enough to handle your bussiness I would suggest you find another place to post......... This poster repeatedly is dragging up old BULLSHIT.........I too would be sick of dealing with his lame ass.....

that's really what has made chiefs planet unique and so very strong...

it's democracy in action...

and like democracy, it can be messy at times... and even unpleasant... and, on occasion, even offensive...

but when it gets too far over the line, that's when the police (moderators) come into play...

phobia understands the difference between moderating and censorship...

autin chief seems to have a very good grasp of the difference...

that understanding and the ability to function in a truly democratic and largly self-limiting and self-policing environment is the primary reason that the planet is so very successful and so wildly popular, imo...

now, not everybody likes that...

now, some would prefer to turn back the clock...

some might be called "reactionaries"... or "old fashioned"... or perhaps just "nostalgic", longing for simpler, cleaner times when folks were always polite and always behaved and always agreed with the man in authority just because he was the man...

is that the planet we want? the planet of harry and ike? the planet of mccarthy and tricky dick? the planet of quiet civility and mild humor? the planet or order & stability?

or do we want the planet of geedubya? the planet of bitiing wit? the planet of controversey and strongly held opinions? the planet of spirited debate and taco, recount, mememe, ernie, t-post tom, go bo and assorted other ass holes that keep you awake and/or piss you off?

if some would like a family atmosphere, let them create a family forum... or a family board... the planet is the planet... it may have been something else at one time, but it isn't whatever this guy wants it to be now...

i may get banned for this, but if the planet is gonna be some tame wussy place liike this guy wants, i might as well get booted now 'cause i'll die of boredom anyway...



p.s. if i'm one of the "select few", i wish someone would just go ahead and "name" me... the suspense is killing me...

:toast:

Couldn't agree more. Also there is a thing called ignore. ;)

Thought about this one most of the morning. I can see where this is coming from based upon some of the major stuff that has happened. But to say "ALL DISPUTES" will be moved and people warned/banned? Where exactly is the line going to be drawn? There aren't very many posts on the planet where there is not some disputing with ideas. Whenever people interact with each other you are going to have disagreements. If they continue to discourse on that stubject, it could be defined by some as a dispute.

There is a need for Moderation - people do get carried away and cross lines. Problem is though, it is a fine line that can turn into censorship if one is not carefull. Not sure but I have gathered from what I've read, wasn't one of the reasons the Planet was created to give people a place where there weren't all the rules and restrictions that the Star BB was placing on them?

I love the Planet and the Mods do a great job. I just see a red flag with such a policy going into place.

htismaqe 03-24-2003 10:29 AM

Some of you just don't get it, do you?

No, go bo, I wasn't speaking about you, but you just had to go on some kind of idealistic tirade anyway, didn't you? And Big_Daddy, you should know better, I keep the "ban Big_Daddy" button in my Favorites. ;)

Instead of just reading what I wrote and seeing the logic in it, you decided to attack me, and accuse me of censorship?

I'm not saying everyone has to think alike, or even that all people need to agree or "get along".

I'm talking about the "meet me in the parking lot after work" attitude that has once again reared it's head here.

See, there's this little thing we created called the IGNORE function, and I'm suggesting that people use it.

But let me spell it out a little bit better so that people can understand what I'm talking about:

I've gotten SEVERAL private messages over the past few weeks asking me to INTERCEDE on the part of a user because they can't get along with other MODS.

I won't do this.

I've seen SEVERAL instances in the past few days where certain people, who are for very good reasons are unpopular, have had RELEVANT threads hijacked.

If you don't like what someone else is saying, put them on IGNORE or leave them alone. It's that simple.

And if you're having trouble with one of us mods, you better realize that there's a VERY GOOD reason, because the mods here are more than fair for all of the shit they put up with.

Sorry I wasn't more specific before.

htismaqe 03-24-2003 10:33 AM

This is not a POLICY. This is, as it always has been, at mine (or Phobia's, or Luz') discretion.

I just wanted to give everyone fair warning that I'm fed up with the bullshit.

This is not about disagreements, this is about PERSONAL arguments that people need to settle off of this board.

I don't care if my "family" sees political discussions, nudie threads, or whatever on here. That IS what makes this place interesting.

VonneMarie 03-24-2003 10:38 AM

Also there is the ignore button. It's just that simple.

BIG_DADDY 03-24-2003 10:42 AM

I kind of figured that was the case Parker I just wanted you to be more specific. BTW I wasn't attacking you, that was just BD's way of asking for a clarification. :p

PastorMikH 03-24-2003 10:43 AM

htismaqe,

It appears you were typing your post as I was typing mine.:)

That clears up most of my concerns. Thanks for the clarification there.

AMEN. And we (meaning Kyle) even went one step further and created a Petty Disputes board specifically for this kind of crap.

USE IT!

:D

LVNHACK 03-24-2003 10:49 AM

Paker......... You need to change the title of this thread........

It should read....... For those who picture appears next to the dictionary term fuggtard........

htismaqe 03-24-2003 10:54 AM

I changed the topic header, just because Big_Daddy requested it.

:p

BIG_DADDY 03-24-2003 11:03 AM

Outstanding Parker!!! Just to clarify further can I still call sofeist sofistme? What about calling Luzcap Luzcrap? That guy shouldn't have any authority.

BIG DADDY
