    Turn off the hostility, pal. There is no need for it.

    That wasn't hostile. That's a simple choice, CFC has a bland OTF (as you have already stated). If poly were to aim for that then there isn't anypoint staying here, CFC is way more active (and has better forum skins to boot).

    Hostile would be an insult along the lines of "run home to your padded cell in CFC where no one can hurt you. Wimp." etc etc.
    You just wasted six ... no, seven ... seconds of your life reading this sentence.

      I wouldn't be able to comment on CFC these days, I haven't visited it for aeons.

      To be truthful, the only bit that irked me was the implicatation that CFC is my home.

      For me, Poly is home...And has been for years.

        OK, that's a fair insult. Mea culpa on the mistake.

        Apologise to the man Sloww

          It's a simple thing. If you're wanting every place you go to be like CFC, stay at CFC. From what I've seen, you've made the comparison at 2 different sites.

          Compare it to a new job. If someone starts a job where I work, I damned sure don't want to hear "Well, this is how it was at Froggy Bottom Manufacturing".

            Sloww...
            They were negative comparisons...I don't support CFC.
            I was trying to underline that the CFC moderation is too stuffy.

            The last thing I would like to see is amusing posters here being
            gagged, but name calling and ranting will only entrench the admin.

            Dude, I understand your stance there.

            No more odious comparisons!

              An explanation: I tought it was apparent that I was refering to a thread that apears to have been locked simply because it did not sit with the new kings political views. (refering to the thread Che started which painted xtians in a slightly negative light)

              I do not make this accusation lightly but the deafening silence from the authorities is suspicius at least.

                It's actually kind of funny that all you guys are doing is hurting yourselves...

                I have to give the new management credit for originally leaving the old rules in place, and at first, turning a blind eye to the expected childish games. I guess they hoped that people would settle down when posters saw that the Nazi Storm Troopers weren't coming to Poly. But now the posters are forcing the new owners hand. What a stupid game.

                You should be happy they took the approach of leaving things the same... instead, you might be forcing them into the action that none of you wanted in the first place.

                I thought some of you were smarter than that.

                Good luck to the new management and mods.

                This is disinformation, yes the majority of my fellows are simple vandals but was it not so in every revolution? I want answers first apology to the community second (it need not even be publicised greatly a simple statement that this will not occur in the future is sufficient).


                I have posted no obscene pictures and have done nothing worth baning except criticizing the admins and holding them accountable. Public debates of this nature have taken place in the last few months several times, are selective about to whom we apply the rules? Are some given patents of nobility and a get out of jail free card?

                Has there been a change of rules I am not aware of?

                  On 2nd look the Che thread was indeed 12 minutes older then Ozzy's one, and was thus indeed not a copycat thread. Conclusion: I made a wrong decision there.

                  I've merged both threads now.
                  Next time just send me a pm if you think that I made a wrong decision.
                  Ok it appears our demands where marginally met.

                    Robert Plomp has already stated that his closing of che's thread was a mistake.

                    Edit: Whoops, I was late. Hera: Is there any reason for this thread to remain open?
