i swear to frikkin god...

/swear

if you have a xmas tree in your frikkin house. do not frikkin come back
if you perpetuate santa by lying and giving gifts to children

never darken this door again

integrity/honesty/rationality and unquenchable thirst for knowledge
those are the qualities, the prerequisites, desired

those lacking, those in a festive mood........get the hell out of dumbf**ksci!!

Trying to get banned or something? This is basically overriding moderation.

I've stood up for you in the mod forum already, but looks like you want to be banned?
Just a temp ban, I assume?

You could just ask, you know.

You are evil and must be destroyed...

Heh.

Actually, what you did was post in between me reading Gustav's post and pressing reply.

You took the bullet for him.

I guess it's too late then, nothing I can do about it now. You're going to get banned, Sam.
Merry Christmas.

Personally, I don't mind you complaining in here about us mods being nazis or whatever. But, regardless of my personal opinion, your other thread was locked. That's called moderation. You basically just posted an identical thread (close enough to be called identical). That's called overriding moderation.

as i remember in another thread you were all in favour of human judgement to replace a mechanical process.

I've already told you why I believe it was locked.

And, it's not just the thread by itself but the general context in which it finds itself. Enough drama and complaint threads have been posted in the last month to choke a horse.

Blame Reiku for your thread being locked, because he's the one who crossed the line.

I have an "xmas" tree and all the trimmings. We celebrate the solstice as a time of impending renewal and the brightening of the longest and darkest watches of the night in the great traditions stretching back to long before there was any concept of xians.

We share a bond with those that depended on recognizing these critical seasonal turning points and built great structures to mark them (stonehenge for example).

So gustav, just what the fuck are you ranting about?

he's talking about lying to children. i kinda agree with him.

Gustav
12-25-07, 04:02 PM
you do know the thematics have nothing to do with mods and moderation?
you are aware that i usually accept moderation without complaint?
and if complaining, i always win either tacitly or overtly

i really couldnt give a crap about you mods
irritants really

Sometimes it's impossible for me to decipher gustav's extremely odd but nevertheless very cool style of haiku-like posting.

If you say so. The thread reads like, "If you believe in Christmas. If you're not an uptight fuddy duddy. Then get the hell out of Sci because you will be persecuted."

That's not what you're saying then?

nothing really
the premises and demands are an expression of my twisted sense of humor
give you fucks a dose of your own medicine

i have the higher ground
plazma/jamesr cannot aspire or meet the standards i impose on sci
and that is a blast


ahhhaaaaa
a sense of humor

So, is this, or is this not, a complaint thread?
You seem to be affirming that it is.

It's not topic drift if we're talking about the topic you provided.
