Oh, my.

What you said before was fucking stupid, but damn.

0x90 "has done nothing wrong".

...on the forum. Done nothing wrong on the forum. Of course when you take what I said out of context it looks stupid.

i don't understand why people say things as stupid as this either. a quote is, by definition, taken out of context. regardless, the plain fact is you said "[0x90] has done nothing wrong." this is what you said. it doesn't look stupid because it's taken out of context... it looks stupid because it's stupid.

it's the (de facto) official forum for this game, and when you have someone who's done such an extraordinary amount of harm to the game, a little common sense is a good thing.

Yes, you're right. There needs to be some common sense usage here.

so start acting like it.

Quote:

Common sense as in banning a cheater from a game in which he cheated. Cheating in the game goes against the rules and therefore a punishment is in order.

However, there is no common sense in banning the same guy from a forum for not breaking any rules at all.

see above re: the extraordinary amount of damage 0x90 has done to this game. one would think the number of times i'd repeated that point it might have made an impression by now. secondly, if pursuing a course of action 0x90 has taken is not against any rulse, then there's something seriously wrong with the rules. it's been several years since we knew what a piece of shit 0x90 is and the rules don't seem to have changed enough to accommodate a ban, EVEN THOUGH people have been banned here despite breaking no rules.

Quote:

I'm not the one being stupid here. Rules are made to protect people who want to play fairly, not punish the people who don't. The rule against cheating is to make it so people can enjoy a fair game. If you take that right away from the other players by cheating, then that is why you are then punished by being separated from them so you can't cause any more problems.

However, you can't cause the other people harm on the forum by using those same cheats that got you banned from the game. The forum is an entirely new dimension. So what if it is the forum for the game in question? You can't cause problems for the other people on the forum by using cheats designed for use in the game. That's why no punishment should be given on the forum unless a forum rule is broken, in which case that person then is causing problems for the other forum users and needs to be removed.

so the only way you could bring yourself to think that 0x90 is "causing problems" for the people on this forum is if, for example, he said something racist?

Quote:

You don't punish people because you want to.
for the second time, nobody is suggesting this should be the case, idiot.

I wish I understood why people say things as dumb as this. Of course it's my opinion; whose else were you expecting when you saw a post from 'Spoony'?

Ok, so how would you phrase it? You state an opinion, therefore it is your opinion. You rather I just say "that's an opinion?" Or rather I just say nothing at all? If the latter, then why make the point in the first place?

i'd rather you don't say things as unbelievably stupid as the numerous intellectual blunders you've made in the course of a relatively small number of posts, but if you insist on doing so
i'll be happy to point out why you're being as thick as pigshit... for your own benefit, of course.

You think you know enough to say he "has done nothing wrong"...

I wouldn't have said anything if I didn't.

so your posts are not off-the-cuff but considered statements... oh dear. that is depressing.

Quote:

Gozy said in one of the first few posts in this thread that he has yet to break any forum rules. From that and the creation of this very thread, I can infer that:
1. He cheats in Renegade.
2. Has not broken any forum rules as of yet.

You can ban him from Renegade for cheating. But banning him from the forum makes no sense at all.

do you even know who 0x90 is? it doesn't sound like it.

this is, again, a remarkably stupid thing to say. Not as bollock-brained as saying 0x90 has done nothing wrong, and maybe not quite as thick as "the more cheats around the better", but still pretty dense. Who said "he should be banned for the sole reason that he made Spoony angry"? When did I ever indicate that making one person angry is justification for a ban?

I was generalizing. I wasn't specifically talking about what you said. I meant it as no body should be banned on the grounds that the person got someone else angry through unrelated issues.

sigh. nobody is suggesting that this is grounds to ban him.

here's what you said.
But like I said, just because you're angry doesn't make it right to ban him from the forum.

it's a gormless thing to say even by the standards you've established already, and your "clarification" hasn't even moved the goalposts.
