If I did it right now i'd get an i-word and probably banned on sight. Double standards suck.

Also I must say, I'm glad this thread is not locked yet...it shows some positive progress on these forums already.

Yes, you would - but just like Stefan, or Darlene you are only human. And as such, the moderators have noticed you've gone out of your way in the past to be annoying/troublesome. Why would they think any different now? Luff <3

You have to remember this is moderated by humans, is all. You think if you moderated a place you wouldn't run into any complications?

Why do you have to hide your statements like that anyway? I know what you're saying now but you could have been more clear about it. So what if humans are naturally biased, does that make it right for Stefan to be able to get away with it?

If I evaded the swear filter for a proper cause, do you think Sam would cut me some slack? Hell no he hates me, i'd be banned on the spot man! Anyways, enough of this...it's my first post in this thread that is supposed to shine. xD

Yea, but as I said before - you've got a history of being a smart-ass. Besides, Sam isn't exactly the most friendly care-bear.

That's a pretty excellent point.

Your former actions on the forums give people a reason not to cut you slack. Sorry, but it is true Crono.

It's not double standard, it is the art of discussion. To explain a forum rule related to words which are not allowed on the forum, I must display the words so that people can understand it. Your way of making fun of it is just out of place and shows your ignorance, although I guess for you it's more about fun than about being disrespectful, the result is the same though.

The point is that if i did what you did, with the same positive intent, would I get away with it? No. I wouldn't. That's all I'm saying, this is nothing to do with ignorance or respect, but rather just a simple point I felt I needed to share.

What have I done? Really, It's not like I joined some Anti-Graal group and want to see Graal dead. Tell me what I've done, im serious.

As an administrator, Stefan was discussing a rule having to do with certain words, and as an Administrator, he showed those words so the point would be clear.

So just flat out tell me, if I did the exact same thing Stefan just did with the same outright positive intentions, would I have been punished for it? Yes and no please.

My example of double standard from my experience.

http://forums.graalonline.com/forums...2&page=8&pp=15

Notice the post made by Sam was deleted with the reason "not needful" as it was deleted by Sam himself.

Now refer to

http://forums.graalonline.com/forums...&postcount=122

Which is my post which has completely been deleted and I was banned. One being an insult towards me and the other with me responding to his insult. Why was I the only one punished when I didn't even instigate the insulting?

I even submitted tickets.

That's all I have to say.

I could copy and paste from the infractions area, but I'd get in trouble for doing so. You've broken quite a few rules and I know you know better. Same for a lot of other people and they still think they've done nothing wrong.

Well, discussing them is illegal after all but I'll end this one discussion by simply saying that the ones I do have by no means brands me as some kind of forum-criminal. My first post is still uncommented though, and I'm just waiting for someone to comment it in this thread.
