From: Willow Zander I am just pissed that we were singled out. How do you know others didn't get a reprimand of some kind? ... Maybe they're just not whining about it. Yes, Willow, I'm aware that I took you off mute to read this thread so you don't have to point it out in your next post, which should be.. oh.. 2.3 seconds from now.

From: Ironchef Cook What's the big deal? It's always been inconsistent. There always have been favoritism. Oh ok then. Let's just accept that and move on. No biggie. From: someone Maybe it's just as simple as it seems, they too agree that your posts are getting fucking annoying so they're doing something about it. Maybe they do agree I'm fucking annoying. But then why not say so instead of manufacturing some bullshit new rule about not using the offtopic forum for joke threads and accusing me of 'weeks of personal attacks' which is untrue? From: someone To even mention paying $200 to get singled out is just a lame move. Crying over getting your feelings hurt and threatening to not pay your $200/mo because of the forums just seems silly to me.
I assure you I'm not in the least bit hurt or crying. Sorry to burst your bubble. I am fucking annoyed though. Annoyed enough to stop giving them my money every month. If that is silly, so be it. But it's my money - I don't see how any of you can call me out for how I choose to spend it... there are PLENTY of people that have tiered down in protest at one or another thing that LL have done.

From: Lordfly Digeridoo Furthermore, I would imagine that the Lindens only lock/delete/edit threads that get a decent amount of abuse reports filed about them.
Ergo, you must be pissing enough folks off to get a stern warning. Really? Read what I got a warning for? Which self righteous fucktard reported abuse for a joke between me and Willow? Now that really WOULD be a very sad individual. "Please Mr Linden! They're having a pretend fight over there! Lock it down!"

From: Kris Ritter Really?

"Please Mr Linden! They're having a pretend fight over there! Lock it down!" Didn't you only mention that it was a joke towards the end of the thread? That would have given ppl lots of time to have reported it before you revealed that it wasn't serious.

I think you're missing my point. Why would someone not involved in the thread or any perceived abuse go and abuse report it? Or are there really people who go looking for threads they have nothing to do with so they can get people into trouble? Because that really WOULD be sad. Anyhoo, the message is very loud and clear... 'please dont start your own joke threads and keep to those'. Okies. We'll go back to trolling everyone elses

Ironchef,
<<LL rules all and they can do whatever they want.>>
This must be the thousandth time this has been posted in these forums. Of course, the question is not what the Lindens can do, but what they should do.
IMV if the Lindens implemented a simple rule these forums would be far more manageable. Rule no. 1. Postings will be deleted if they contain racial hate speech or anything that is illegal in the United States. Repeated violations will lead to a warning or suspension.
That's it. There is no need for any other rule in the Land of Free Speech *cough*.
It does seem very strange to me that known racists are still inworld, while one of the victims they targetted is apparently not, and that instead of dealing with real issues the Lindens seem to be concerned with dealing with a 'problem'that is only considered to be a problem by a minority of the people here.
PS: Edited for clarity

From: Jauani Wu thank you for that brilliant insight into the inner workings of my mind. i had no idea i had such deep seeded animosity towards kris just waiting to surface.
can i hire you for regular sessions to help me out with more of my supressed issues? i've made a pretty penny sucking everyone dry and am willing to pay big L$! and then later you posted: " -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote: Originally Posted by Kris Ritter I think you're missing my point. Why would someone not involved in the thread or any perceived abuse go and abuse report it? Or are there really people who go looking for threads they have nothing to do with so they can get people into trouble? Because that really WOULD be sad. I completly agree with you Kris! More so I have a prime example of the this that does exist in these forums: http://forums.secondlife.com/showth...05&page=5&pp=15 "Originally Posted by Catherine Cotton OMG! REPORTED! NOT ACCEPTABLE!!" " Your snide comments have been noted again. Not that LL will do anything about your always posting snide/rude/insulting comments to me when ever possiable. Sorry if you didnt notice but I reported your very very insulting post to Kris not the entire thread. That post was so rude I dont care to post it yet again in this thread. You and I dont care for each other that much is true. However I dont go looking for your posts to intentionaly call you out and obviously insult you. You take every oppertunity to do so to me and I will continue to report you untill LL wakes up and spells the fricken coffee. You should of been banned long ago. Why you haven't is beyond me. I dont care how much ANYONE pays LL monthly it does not give ANYONE the right to stalk/insult/belittle/ or imply anything about another player. Want my advice? sure no problem; When your losing an argument dont stoop to personal attacks, dont imply drug use, dont belittle or intentionaly try and make your opponant into something they are not. Also don't switch your way of speaking, your obviously a business gal. If you cannot win an arguement or a debate like an adult then dont argue or debate. That will be L$10,000 please. Also FYI I recieved the same damn letter and yes I too am pissed about it.

From: Ironchef Cook You're kidding me right? The forums don't even need to exist. It's basically here out of the kindness of LL's heart. Nobody has the right to anything here. Tomorrow they can make a rule that whoever's name starts with an 'I' will permanantly have the signature 'fucktard' if they want.
It is about who gets annoyed if it's the moderators who are getting annoyed. That's the point. LL rules all and they can do whatever they want. Is there hypocrisy? Hell ya and it's always been like that. AMEN....Chef. Couldn't have said it any better.

From: Lordfly Digeridoo No.
Linden Lab is a small company. They don't have an army of 20 mods to police the forums, editing out naughty bits and slapping offenders with reprimands.
Their forum moderation is a part time job, at best, and wholly unsatisfying, I'm sure. Every thread that gets pushed around, edited, or locked gets at least one more person up in arms about the "Linden Police State".
If you want forum censorship, go to the stratics forums. They're a fascist dictatorship compared to our sunny monarchy.
Furthermore, I would imagine that the Lindens only lock/delete/edit threads that get a decent amount of abuse reports filed about them.
Ergo, you must be pissing enough folks off to get a stern warning.
Ergo, stop posting off-topic junk all over the forums.
Kthxbye.
LF Well they sure edited out MY naughty bits. I can't even pee.

I just found this thread. Firstly, I hope no one is suggesting that I am one of the Linden favored ones because that would be a fucking joke. I have been SUSPENDED and have received many warnings. Additionally, my threads always get deleted or locked. Secondly why are you making such a big deal out of a warning? The joke thread was not funny. It served no purpose except to mock the people, like myself, who suggested you that both Kris and Willow can be hella obnoxious at times and need to stop hijacking other people’s threads. I felt the warning was appropriate. Keep pushing that envelope Kris! Suspension is right around the corner. You go girl!

You said it was OK to start our own threads, so thats what we did! no-one had to read it, cept those who wanted to, and oooooo look we stopped hijacking and made our own, and we stilll get warned, but meh w/e it's only a fecking forum, and its only a game! Stress down, take a chill pill and everyone just get a freaking long FFS... lifes too damn short for this shit... and NO that last line wasn't directed at anyone in particular, I don't pick on people individually, I maybe annoying, but I am fair

I actually didn't say anyone was favoured, I was pissed at a few things being said, as I am not obnoxious and I don't like people analyzing me and getting it wrong, but I can see everyones point and calmed down the trolling.. It's done now, Im over it, now I wish people would STFU about it, and the sl00ts, we be nice really, just playing and sometimes we don't know when to STFU ourselves... OK... ty

OK... ty  Willow I think you need to direct that at your fellow sl00t Kris. She is the one raising hell about a silly (though well deserved) warning in THIS thread that SHE (sl00ts) created. I was just adding my opinion being that I just saw the thread!

Yes he speaks true...however when he was suspended wasn't there a thread complaining about it? I don't believe he started the thread however it was a big thread complaining about it.
