"THE SHAKING OF I-MOCKERY'S VERY FOUNDATION"

[Mockery]

So I get back home and find that some of the kids had a hissy fit over pub's temporary banning. awww. how cute. For those of you that don't know exactly what went down, it's quite simple:

Pub made a post in all caps, and in it was blabbing about "******s". humorous intent or not, if I see that shit, it gets deleted from the board and the poster gets banned at least temporarily. i've got enough content filters already blocking the site because of stupid shite like that, and i don't need more of them. furthermore, if advertisers who help pay the bills see that shit, they might not to advertise here. and sorry, but paying the bills is one of those teency weency requirements for keeping all of i-mockery going.

Pub was getting a simple 3-day "sit in the corner and think about what you did" ban. And yet somehow, the oh-so-rebellious jackass bandwagon just happened to be passing through town when it happened. And now it seems as though the moderators have banned a bunch of 'em? Haha classic. Hope the shitfit over his temporary ban was worth it kiddies.

If I knew giving a temporary ban to someone for making an idiotic post would rile people up so much, I'd do it more often. Unfortunately, general blabber is one of the only forums I have time to check anymore so most of the bullshit that takes place on these forums still goes unseen. hence the reason you don't see me deleting posts with other racist remarks in them in other forums all too often unless people notify me of them.

For the record, I couldn't give a shit about people wanting to look at porn or saying whatever the hell they want to say. I just try to keep these boards, and the site itself, reasonably clean from that bullshit. There's enough places on the web where everybody is trying to prove how "shocking" they can be already.

And just so ya know, those threads were backed up in a private moderator forum and i'll be checking them out in more detail later on. But for those of you who were banned tonight, here's the facts:

I trust the judgement those who moderate these boards, so I'm gonna let them decide when they want to unban your asses. That is IF they want to unban you anytime soon. In the meantime, go knock yourself out on some other forums where you can try to impress people with your vast knowledge of those shocking racist remarks and pornographic images. We're all incredibly impressed.

Seriously.

Hugs & kisses,
