OK, here's the deal...

[DaFace]

As much fun as all of the controversy has been the last couple days, the mods have discussed all of this craziness (yes, there are enough of us to have discussion now!) and decided to clarify a few things. So...here ya go.

1. The rules aren't changing. They're the same as they've been for years.
2. We WILL be trying to enforce them a little more consistently. Things like bypassing the filters and threats will be handled when reported, and sometimes when they're not. Just depends on how cranky we are.
3. However, we aren't going to go banning people on sight unless they either refuse to comply or have been a repeat offender. You'll get a warning or two if you're doing something that's iffy.
4. The infractions system is not meant to be used to rapid-fire infractions to get someone banned. Anyone who uses them for that purpose (unless you're killing spammers) will lose the privs immediately.

That said, Hootie fully reinstated and can consider this a warning that he went too far. CC can consider this a warning not to abuse the infractions system (as can H5N1). GoChiefs would be unbanned as well, but you can't come back screaming "**** the mods" and expect that to be all fine and dandy. However, his sentence is being reduced back to two weeks. He needs some time to work on his next video anyway.

I know this whole deal has been a bit of a mess, but just wanted to reemphasize that nothing's changing. In general, don't be a douchebag, and you'll be fine. The end.

Probably agree with this. I do tend to think I have more common sense than anyone else...online and off. Probably my biggest flaw.

[Hootie]

also...I have a hard time admitting I'm wrong. Another flaw.

and I'm pretty lazy. Flaw.

and sometimes I pee sitting down.

man, I could go on and on and on

In short...

Coffey did this last year, he knew I wasn't a fan of him putting temp bans on me and he was warned by DaFace not to do it again. He then made a big deal about how he was "only looking for a reaction" and "I did exactly what he wanted me to do" last time...

so he got what he ****ing wanted again, didn't he? Instead this time instead of attacking his height and his tiny penis...he gave me a shit ton of ammunition to use against him instead.

No one is ever going to convince me I'm at fault. None of it EVER would have happened had he not been drunk on ChiefsPlanet...

You're right about the laps part. I'm suprised the discussion is still going.

You had every right to say what you did, just as everyone had the right to pile on you for saying it. Was CC in a place where he was trying to vent, and possibly get some positive reinforcement? Most likely. Should he have thought it through a bit more before going through the motions of sharing it all? Undeniably. Were you trying to get under his skin with the reply? Unquestionably. Was the whole thing handled poorly by everyone involved? Absolutley. But hey, people make bad decisions all the time. They learn from it and move on.

[KurtCobain]

ay hootie, how'd you become the meat dragon? I was gonna for a year and came back and there was this The Meat Dragon guy who kept arguing with people and I was on his side mostly, so I was like damn that dude is cool. Then I found out it was hootie and I felt strange.

Sadly...

with Coffey I'd do it 10 times out of 10

if there wasn't a history, it wouldn't have been a problem

if gblowfish sent me an infraction and said the same stuff, I would have sincerely apologized

Amnorix gave me a neg rep for calling something "Jewish" one time and since I've stopped using that term...and I even hate him because he's a Patriots fan and I hate Boston...but I respect him as a poster (even if he's the worst type of homer there is!!!)

I don't respect Coffey...I did what he wanted me to do. This isn't something new...he wanted a reaction, I gave him an epic reaction.

Well, I doubt if the apple fell too far from the tree, Pootie.

and then I deciphered the information given to me...because I have a lot of experience in the 'getting into relationships with girls I meet at bars' field.

A lot.

What he claims didn't make any sense...and the only reason he's getting any special treatment is because he is a serviceman (and that was part of Phil's message he sent to me on Facebook)...

not my fault

and the fact we have moderators contacting me on facebook is more of an invasion of privacy than anything I did to CrazyCoffey...

What special treatment is he getting?

He's a good friend of mine, but I have no problem saying he's an idiot for sharing that.

While I don't agree with you posting said information to the entire board, had you stopped there, this probably wouldn't be nearly the issue it is.

In all honesty, if anyone is getting some benefit from this, it's you.

There can't be but 10-15 people that know exactly what was posted - the information came down too quickly.

The rest of us can't really have an open discussion without repeating what exactly was said. That benefits you - if the entire board knew what was said, you'd be getting ZERO sympathy.

Not that you're looking for any...

Personally, the first line you crossed I expected. The 2nd line was a bit surprising, even for you.

CC made the same mistake - expecting you to act like a human being. For someone that claims he doesn't take anything seriously, you sure got worked up over some lame-ass infractions.

Not judging you for it. I just don't get the disconnect here. He's a 25ish year old asshole with no regrets. Why is that so horrible? Weren't we all assholes at 25?

Sure I did stupid things in youth that looking back I'm not proud of. But none of these things included gleefully ****ing people over, date rape, or picking fights and then hiding behind my friends like a giant pussy. Or any of the other things that seem to define Pootie's useless existance that he so readily shares with us.

**** off, Bowser. We had a great fistfight going, and you had to spoil the fun by injecting logic and common sense. Now what am I going to do with my spare time? This thing looked like ith could carry me through until the draft.

date rape?

hahaha

that continues, really?

yeah I date raped my ex-girlfriend turned booty call? I don't think out of the 100+ times we had sex either of us were sober 1 time. Most of the time we'd wake up and be naked and wonder if we had sex the night before...

Maybe you all just don't know how it is to be in a binge drinking relationship...and I applaud you...those were rough times for 22 year old Hootie's body. Felt like shit 24/7.
