Moneymaker: You should be grateful, they are being rather relaxed with you... er... more relaxed than they should at least... You are real annoying. They are locking your threads because they go off topic, they are in the wrong boards, you make countless of them, and they are down right ridiculous. Now shut the hell up before I rape you!

Oh, and I voted No. If I acted like this when I joined, I would have been *** raped by the staff.

My God! They suck, and they always act like I have no name. It is so frustrating! You're so right, Trymaker! And they say I'm always spamming, which I am not! I am not a monkey, and I can't be trained like one. They're always calling me a troll, which is totally wrong!
Title: Re: Do you think the Staff is to strict
Post by: Darkfox on April 07, 2009, 02:20:13 AM
I say "no", the mods here are very lenient. We rarely ban anybody and I don't see many editing or locking going on. And you multi-posted several times in a row, you spammed, and you kept on about a request that was already filled making PRPL feel like he did nothing for you. Please take into account that we are human beings too and deserve just as much respect. And doing this will not help your case either.

Compared to other places out there we are very lenient and allowing. If we were to be any less strict... well... this place would be 4chan. Really.

If we talk a little off topic for not even a day the person still will feel helpful now your just making stuff up. Plus when i did things like that i was new and really didn't understand. The rules only made me more confused.If your not gonna thing about changing then this site will never be good becuase you don't care about the people in it.     :yell: :yell:

I'm not being rude because I'm not doing things to hurt people.I only posted things to get things and talk to people a little.Its not like i even talk to them that long you are way strict and you don't even try and make me or anyone feel better you just have to win and its over you call that a good learder i don't think so.

A good leader does socialize with his/her people and that is true. But a good leader also knows when to put his or her foot down. Now we don't "godwin" a lot as you seem to be implicating. We've been very lenient obviously with allowing you to attack us so.

And this makes me think that your saying you could do better. Arrogance is rude. And another thing that is rude is telling us how to run things. We've lasted this long so you can't condemn us to death... which is also rude. You are being rude and awfully demanding. We're sorry we can't reach your high level of expectations.

I'm not wanting to sound bitter but what do you want us to do? Shine your shoes, sir? Yes sir, right away sir! We are not slaves to do whatever you will... we have our own freedoms you understand?

First impressions are important trymaker, you don't demand things on first meetings. This is only day 2 you've been here. You know what I mean? See... this is what your doing.
Title: Re: Do you think the Staff is to strict
Post by: trymaker on April 07, 2009, 02:39:06 AM
Yeah i understand the leader thing but, I was not being rude i was saying my opinion plus how does this have anything to do with your freedom all i want is for you to not treating to ban us when we do miner things

Yeah, I mean WTF. Just because we're miners doesn't mean we're any less valuable. We should start a Miner's Union.

What you are doing is hardly minor... You are spamming uncontrollably, you are pushing down other topics in the board, you are increasing bandwith(or something like that... IDK, I am no technological wizard), and you are constantly begging for things which can easily be made by yourself...

First I'm not spamming uncontrollable how would you no I'm NOT secong making these things are hard for me because i really get lost when people tell me what to do (Even thought they don't.) Your acting likes its a crime they can say no. I don't know what to tell you about that technological thing you where stuck on i don't know what your saying with that.
Title: Re: Do you think the Staff is to strict
Post by: Darkfox on April 07, 2009, 02:47:30 AM
It WAS minor. And this has everything to do with us and how we feel. Now we didn't help the matter, okay, that is a given. Trolling is bad, period. Sorry. But it isn't minor anymore. You've taken one thing and made it a "global" issue than taking it up with the person who did it in PM. So it's gone past minor... *sad face*

I had hoped that once your request was finished you would be satisfied, but what more do you want? I invited you to a game so we could have some fun at the least but you just insulted me... egh... you are rude... and I've been trying to be nice and understanding and giving you the answers to your questions. I really have. I've not been using harsh words, and I have been going easy on you, you know I have. But still you give me sour persimmons.

2) Helped you out.

No, you are really not the only one. I've been watching this fella and... I don't know, it seems like he's not that new to Charas. Don't know why...

Title: Re: Do you think the Staff is to strict
Post by: Ben on April 07, 2009, 07:47:56 AM
he is obviously a troll. to think otherwise is naive.

He has eloquently hit us with every drama inducing occurrence from the last year.
Crossover fangame
multiple request threads for the same thing
Mods are too strict thread

And he seems to have an instant vedetta against myself even when i dont full on tell him negative things. (you can troll a troll. my trolling is intended as a means of belittlement, whereas this guy coughdracecoughorcoughextreemepein is not only going for the soft spots of the forumites in general, but the more outspoken members that would be easiest to potentially turn people against)

He is obviously a member who has recently left or been banned. As far as i know, aside from meis, nobody has been banned recently. And meis took it like a champ


If its not drace, its somebody familiar with the ongoings.
Or maybe im wrong

i think razor is a pretty cool guy. eh is an active admin, and dosent afraid of anything

As far as proxy goes: his IP isn't used by anyone else at all. That's pretty unheard of for a proxy.

I had a bigger avatar once upon a time. While admin, I had played around with the forums avatar settings and uploaded a larger one while all of the avatars were 64X64 I jacked up the forum default sizes and got my avatar. Then it seemed to stretch everyone elses sigs for a day or so. Somebody (osmose) changed the sizes back to normal, and my larger avatar stayed the same size. Little bug exploit I guess. After resigning and then getting the final boot, somebody deleted my gemini-man avatar. Been too lazy to upload a new one.

things like harmless racial slurs in literature made before the times where political correctness was not an issue, are sort of beginning to be overlooked.

Its a tough one to notice, but Im finding more and more that the backlack from the PCnazis of the Nineties is beginning to subside.
People are sort of getting over it.

Except for the Jewish.
I mean, seriously, I have some black friends, and they joke around all the time about racial things, as do i in their presence.
I have some Jewish friends too. But you dont get to make holocaust jokes around them.

I'm a fan of political correctness to a point. Criticizing the use of derogatory terms like the n-word is legit (It may have been tolerable in the 50's, but it's not now). Criticizing M. Night Shyamalan changing the decidedly dark-skinned leads of the "Avatar" series into lily-white teens for the film is legit. Criticizing The Smurfs for being a near-sausage fest is also legit.

Criticizing the terms "master" and "slave" in electronics....not legit. Nor is getting a guy fired for using the word "niggardly," which has nothing to do with the derogatory name.

However, it's disquieting how the PC-crazed nineties are being followed up with a huge backlash against anything PC. Now, the n-word is funny again, Jew-bashing is funny again, and you get Michael Richards launching into some berserk racist rant at a comedy club. Sure, there was a media outcry against Richards, but he probably thought he could get away with it at the time, and in a couple years, he probably could.

honestly, i think the whole thing is a joke. You gotta laugh it off man. People get mad and say bad things, and its usually pretty lulzy.
Tell me that there isnt a group of black guys who have sat around poking a bit of fun at the white guy they work with that goes golfing and wears the goofy shirt.... "that stupid cracker. Hes a good guy, but man, that guy is whiter then the middle of a twinkie"
Or something of the like. Maybe its because i live in a place where racism has never been a problem.

Something that has always bugged me, is that fact that EVERY ETHNIC GROUP is allowed to feel proud of themselves except white guys.

Im a white german candian male. I am living with my commonlaw cantonese candian lady. My best friend as a child was a jamacian. My first employer was a family of lebanese. During my whole life, I have always been able to rely on a bit of racial/minority humour among my cirles of friends.

Everything you just said is true.

But -- and this is a concept most people really don't understand -- but there's a big difference between a laugh at a dominant group's expense and a laugh at a minority group's expense. That's why in commercials and sitcoms you often see a black person triumphantly choosing the "better" product over the white guy or the savvy wife getting the better of the bumbling dad. Laughing at a dominant demographic is fighting the power, showing the underdog has some bite, too. Laughing at a minority is just kicking a guy when he's down.

I know that sounds backwards, since we're taught that all groups should be treated equally. And I don't particularly like it...I usually roll my eyes at anti-men jokes. But I don't get pissed if a black comic takes a jab at white people either. Because it's not a threat. They're just psychologically trying to survive in a country that considers them a deviation from the white norm by laughing at things white people do, and therefore stating that they can be abnormal, too.

I dont get mad about jokes against white dudes either.
But I do think its shitty that if I were to say on TV "You know, Im really proud to be a white german-candian man" I would get bashed for being a neo-nazi.

People would probably overlook that whole "Berlin wall coming down thing" Back in 89
And im sure they would not think to mention the "Protestant and catholic canadian priests housing escaped slave to seek refuge and find their place in a savge new continent" thing

Whereas a black dude can say "Im proud to be a nigga these days" and the association is somehow linked with Mr Martin Luther King.....when he just used an N-bomb and finished joking about black-on-black violence.

There are many Native canadians here. They for some reason get treaty cheques and bursaries to go to university....despite having lived outside of a reservation for 5-6 generations. For some reason there are still reservations, where tax laws are absent. Where federal laws are exempt. where common goods dont have the same federal sales taxes. I am a seventh generation Canadian. My family helped colonize the candian prairies. We lived in holes under the ground and lived off of a couple of chickens and potatoes.

There is just a huge double standard is all, and it bothers me.

I think the first big step in creating an equal playing field in a society is eliminating terms like `minority group`
because believe it or not, giving special treatments to one minority over another,or even all minorities over one majority, creates more minorities out of the majorities.

Its easy to call white people a majority. But HARK....women are somehow a minority now...50% of the whites are women....and are a minority now....but the men are not. But wait wait....gay rights (which I am a firm believer in) so 10% of white men are gay. Another minority.
Now,if youll look, I have created a Minority out of straight white men. Dosent compute.

Ill be straight up here...Im a schizophrenic, bisexual, canadian white male. Where the hell is my special treatment? Where is my university money? Where is my billion dollar lawsuit? Its lost in the wake of a few hundred thousand minority groups all trying to take advantage of a delicate situation

See, this is exactly where Im coming from.
Encouraging one minority to partake in a special pride inducing ceremony like a Black/gay/protruding neck mole parade is counter productive.
I can get down with things like "Black history week"  And if they were to have it "Gay history week" but it has to be presented in an unbiassed manner, which is rarely is ever presented in.

Part of the reason for many hate crimes today, is because of the fact that the minorites feel they should be treated differently from others BECAUSE of the differences, rather then being treated equally despite the difference.

Homophobes get insecure because gay men march down main streets wearing G-strings.
Recording artists glorify sexual solicitation, and the selling of addictive narcotics, and expect people to accept it as part of their culture.
Etc etc

People seem to want to  perpetuate sterotypes rather then focusing on real issues like  civil rights and societal progression.

And then, when its all said and done, for some reason, certain groups are permitted to feel "more proud" then others.

Perhaps the attention could be put on relavent matters like stopping urban violence among blacks resulting from a shifty poverty line and police discrimination. Or tax paying, societally benificial male couples not being allowed to contribute to society as a legally married familial unit, that work full time jobs and do more good for the human race then unemployed trailer-park-types that figure a magical bearded man is going to take favour for them over gays because his dad watches EVERYTHING THEY DO.

Its little things like this that breed intolerance, and set the human race two steps back fro every step we collectivly take forward.

If a black officer shot a white criminal, it's not such a big deal.
If a white guy shoot a black guy, it's racist.

An example of this was when some white officer shot down an immigrant (forgot his nationality) in Montral, some days after, a whole lot of immigrants from there "protested" and began smashing police cars, store windows (as well as robbing the stores) set fire in the streets, etc.

Yeah. The white suburban Protestant middle-class is so much discriminated against!

I wonder if the same thing would've happen if it was the other way around. Probably not.

Also, I like how a thread about Charas' staff strictness turned to a discussion about racism and such.


Conversely...

If there's a white serial killer, it's a serial killer.
If there's a black serial killer, it's oh god, more black crime.


My mom heard about the shooting in New York and recalled the V-Tech killer. "What is wrong with Orientals these days?" she asked. I reminded her that most serial killers are white. No one will ever ask what's wrong with white men though. White men are normal, everyone else is different.

When I was younger, my stepmom heard about the Andrea Yates case where she had a bout of postpartum depression and murdered her children. "That's why we can never have a woman president," she said. "Women can just snap like that. They're not stable." I was pretty young at the time, so I didn't remind her that men are responsible for the vast, vast majority of violence, and far many more a dad has offed his kids than a mom. But men are normal, women are different. If a dad murders his kids, that's a tragedy; if a mom murders her kids, it's a tragedy and a trend.

I just calls 'em as I sees 'em.

You know what else sucks? Gay pride.
I'M PRETTY SURE NORMAL GAY PEOPLE DON'T RUN AROUND HALF NAKED LIKE GIANT EXAGGERATED FAGGOTS. Yeah, **** you mardi gras.
We need straight pride.
Big parade with no confetti, boring floats and many couples walking around in business suits and normal people clothes.
THAT'LL SHOW THE GAYS.

LOL yeah, we should.

Ah, but THAT would be racism.
Yeah, I've heard that kind of things too. But from people intolerant toward immigrants and such.

One thing that need not to be forgotten is that even though the racist excuse is over-used, it is still true sometime.

I know! A lot of stereotypes make no sense at all. Nope... especially when it comes from a race more known for the thing they are accusing the other of. That is grade A irony right there. This goes along the lines of the idiocy that still goes on today, arguing if Jesus was white or black. WHO CARES, most likely he was neither, and I said that and both sides are like "OMG BLASPHEMY STFU!" Idiots...

I'm actually annoyed with this garbage. I should be used to it, but it seems each week they get a bit stupider. When I even try to argue my case with them they just spout unintelligible garbage so I don't even bother with them anymore. All this racial pride stuff is lame...

What about the following case?:

"I killed him because my god hates niggers."

Is it discriminating against his religion to charge him with a hate crime? Yes, it is.

If a black officer shot a white criminal, it's not such a big deal.

 That's pretty fucked up.

 Around here, if a cop shoots anyone, it's a big deal no matter what.

On another note, rape is mostly seen as a male crime. But 1/6 of all rapes are done by females. Many think that this is impossible, because erection is a voluntary response. It is in fact an involuntary response. How you guys likin' my sig?

Not exactly sure what you mean to be honest.

If anyone claim their religion approves killing people of other ethnicities, either they are brainwashed or are completely stupid.

And that would prove how much religions are schnitzel.
Oh wait, that was somewhat a racist comment... oh well.

And even though it might seems discriminating toward this person's religion, it is actually not.
Because a religion that promotes racism would be just... wrong.

That's pretty fucked up.

Yeah, sorry, I meant that it would be seen the same way as if it was a white shooting a white or a black shooting a black.
I explained it very wrongly, my bad.

I have looked through pages of statistics and can safely say that the 1/6 statistic is more than a little wonky.

While female-on-male rape is possible, male rape victims are far more likely to have been raped by another male.

It's a matter of opinion, Dedle.

I mean, is it alright for people in China to kill their children because they had too many and prefer boys over girls?

Is it alright to have an entire village stone a 14 year old to death because you THINK she might be having sex? (I watched the video and it was disgusting how her own father and uncle treated her)

Is it okay for certain tribes to eat human flesh?

Is it okay for a man from Africa to come to the US, kidnap a woman, rape her and claim her as her wife? (This supposedly happened, luls)

Is it okay to say Gays are wrong, despite the fact that they've been around since ancient times? (Geek and Roman Gods?)

Is it okay for old greasy men to marry little girls in the Omish world? And sexually abuse them? While marrying MORE little girls?

Is it cool to blow up homes or public locations killing innocent and not so innocent people just to send a message?

Should religions, which speak of peace and love, fight other religions because THEY feel that there should only be one?

I mean, as we continue to advance... we become our own person. Yeah, society will always play a major part in our upbringing but we're no longer following AS blindly as before. People are noticing changes and they either get with the program or try to stick with the old ways. <<
