Why do people have this need to quote entire posts, anyway? One of my pet peeves too. Especially when they quote THE FULL POST instead of picking out the nugget they want to comment on. Even worse... quoting the full post of that immediately preceded theirs. I know that you can't always predict who will get in before you, but you do have time—what is it, five minutes?—to go back and edit. _____________________

So you have to go back in and edit your message. That's no big deal.
It's the databases that I'm concerned about. They're people too you know. _____________________

My bots work voluntarily in the database dept., so it's not a problem.

Frankly, no one dragged you in kicking and screaming to look at cats- you don't like them stay the hell out- it's not like the thread title was misleading. I pay my membership every month, i am entitiled to read every thread on this forum and I do. I gave up hijacking the undying thread about 25000 posts ago so keep you tacky, corny non Sl related imagery in there. I assume thats why it is still there and not locked. Also, dont tell me where to go and where not to go on these forums, I will go where I want and post what I want within reason. _____________________

Just like there are degrees of law breakers in RL -- do you consider someone who ignores speed limits and speeds to be the same as a murderer? A ridiculous comparison unworthy of further response. _____________________

You'll notice I didn't say you should stay out- I said if you didn't like it stay out- meaning the choice is yours. But if you choose to get into things you have to deal with what you find- same as we had to deal with your tasteless choice in posting. _____________________

But, and please don't take this personally, are they no worse? We all know that Resident Answers is sort of like American democracy - a long-running experiment. There is a lot of leniency and free reign given in this forum, much moreso than the rest. Yes, rulz iz rulz and we should all be held to the same standard for the same infractions. You have a valid point and I happen to agree with it. What causes me to shake my head is that, in breaking more rules than others to call attention to non-enforcement, if the rules are now enforced, you may find yourself at the crappy end of the stick for it, being now guilty of not only posting off-topic pics but offensive ones at that. If the mods decide to begin enforcement with this incident, you would, and should, get the stronger measure taken against you - with little to say about it, since you used the offense to call for enforcement. Personally, I would have just started a bird thread. Doesn't everyone like birds? ![]() Of course...of all the pictures posted in that thread, mine would habe been deemed the most offensive generally, although some of those cat pics are pretty sickening. What I meant with my comment is that all participants were just as guilty as me in spamming the forum with non SL related imagery. As for the mods useing me as a scapegoat to finally start moderating these forums PROPERLY then that is a price I am willing to pay for the sake of the community and these forums. _____________________

Kids! Kids!! Kids!!! Yes, Porky's pic was in poor taste, but aren't we adults here? Can't we just roll our eyes and move on? There are so many truly disgusting things we're exposed to in this world every day that we shouldn't be thrown off balance by his school yard immaturity. I don't want this forum to be come controlled and sanitized to the point of blandness. SL sure isn't. Anybody who doesn't want to deal with Porko can put him on their ignore list or simply not click on his links. That said, if I ever got my hands on the Pork Rinds, I give him such a spanking. Where's that hair brush? Mute is your friend people. Make me go away. _____________________

either or an attempt to get himself banned by seeing how far he can push the mods. either way, it was in bad taste. bwa ha ha bad taste... get it? oh, nm.I have no wish to be banned obviously. The pics of cats are cute and fluffly and they make we want to puke. So I joined in the fun. It was funny, it still is, to me at least. In principle a man being sick isnt offensive to anyone so I still dont understand the upoar. Iftmight put a few people off of their dinner, but seeing evil cats in multiple forums doesnt do allot for my appetite either. _____________________

But if you choose to get into things you have to deal with what you find- same as we had to deal with your tasteless choice in posting. I did deal with what I found, I chose to express my feeling through the medium of "man chucking up in a bag" imagery. _____________________

Lolcats should be banned from this haven, just as sweatshirts with pictures of kittens swinging from branches with the caption "hang in there" be banned from real life. And penny loafers.
I fully support anyone who ridicules the posting of pictures of kittens, regardless of how fluffy, on the interweb. _____________________
