Not in any way, shape, or form. For it to be favoritism she/them would have had to ban others or delete stuff from others while not doing the same to Aircraftkiller when he did something similar, and that has not happened.
Quote: | What do you have to do to get your self banned? What line do you have to cross?
|
Attacking the forum, flooding (new accounts, posts, etc.), bypassing security features and trying to do stuff that's not intended to be done (one was banned recently for including some html in his post that changed the background image of the forum for that thread), etc.
|
I'm glad someone is paying attention.
IRON FART | Does that mean I can come here, try to piss people off and be a menace?
|
Haven't you done that before? Or am I confusing you with someone else.
I'm the bawss.

Well at the time I was being a menace....Just like ACK....And do you remember what you did? You banned me.
But was I being a menace just because I felt like pissing people off? Not even. I downloaded cheats off a website whose domain was linked to you. THAT is why I was being a menace - and I got punished for voicing it out here. Wether there was any truth to it or not, I guess I will never know, but I apologized since for being a menace the way I was.
HOWEVER if you can't plainly see (or refuse to) that ACK is coming here only to be disruptive and be a menace, then that is favouritism because you refuse to do anything about it.

Or maybe it's because once upon a time he WAS helpful and created more maps than anyone, and the most popular maps still played today?

Than*
Most popular maps played today? Maybe that's because he always shot down anything anyone else tried to do and told people their maps were crap. Who knows what some of those modders could have come up with had they not given up after the harrassment ack gave them. As for the most popular maps played today, of course the factory maps are the most popular played today. I'm afraid we'll never get any modded maps to trump them due to ack having been the only one to keep producing maps for the reasons stated above.

Once upon a time people admired Micheal Jackson.
Once upon a time before 1941, there were several million more jews.
Once upon a time Lucas was a good film maker.
Once upon a time "Hip-Hop" was (for the best) looked down upon.
Just because something used to be good, doesnt mean it should be allowed to happen/change.
EDIT: and no i dont mean MJ should be admired.

That's a horrible analogy... I don't think the way ACK acts is anything close to any of those.

......that was not the point.
The point was that things change. Better or worse.

Nope, still not favoritism. Just because she's not doing anything to him, doesn't make it favoritism. Until she bans someone for being annoying, or acting similarly while Aircraftkiller is still acting the same and isn't banned, it isn't favoritism no matter how you try to spin it.
Since you're having trouble with the word, I'll explain it for you...
Favoritism: Person A, and Person B are both acting like asses, trying to start arguments, etc., but only Person B is banned because Person A is a friend of the Admin.
Not Favoritism: Person A is acting like an ass, trying to start arguments, etc., but he isn't banned.
Since there isn't another person doing the same thing that got banned, while Aircraftkiller didn't get banned, it can't be favoritism.

That's weird, because according to the dictionary, my explanation of it is completely correct.
Dictionary.com | fa·vor·it·ism
n.
1. A display of partiality toward a favored person or group.
2. The state of being held in special favor.
|
Dictionary.com | partiality
n
1: a predisposition to like something; "he had a fondness for whiskey" [syn: fondness, fancy] 2: an inclination to favor one group or view or opinion over alternatives
|
Dictionary.com | favored
adj 1: preferred above all others and treated with partiality; "the favored child"
|
Favoritism is to show preference of someone over someone else. Like I said, for it to be favoritism, she would have to ban others for doing what Aircraftkiller is doing while not banning him.

I swear, you people are so fucking stupid. Sir Phoenixx has stated the definition of favoritism at least 5 different times, yet you still keep crying, and crying, and crying about how it's favoritism that's going on. Even though it's brutally obvious that it's not, you strive harder to get Aricraftkiller banned instead of actually trying to see past your blind rage that it's not favoritism.
WHATEVER, FAGGOT

I agree completely. I'll also quote myself.
j_ball430 | This thread is completely pointless. Even if I agreed with banning him, this thread would STILL be pointless. Whether or not he should be banned, the fact is, he isn't going to be. Talking about this anymore just shows that you guy's can't drop a subject.

whoa.
