I really can't think there's any problem here, there's other peoples' posts that are less well written. I think Sasha's posts are well written.

No need to bring this into this topic.

Okay then, so text speech is now allowed on the forum?

thanx u for clearing dat up for me.

[James]

We don't come down on people like a ton of bricks for text speech. Just encourage them to change.

I'm sure you've noticed that there are other posters who use it sometimes despite us having reminded them before about it.

[lily.]

For James:

Can I just express my disappointment that you have yet to respond to anything I've said on here. You have posted, but mostly in response to stuff Sasha said.

I'm sure that defeats the objective of rules though, aye?

Edit: Plus I've seen you post warnings on peoples posts for using text speech. Yet to see one on Sasha's posts (And yes Sasha, I know this is not your fault that the mods favoured you, but regardless, you still broke forum rules)

[The_Hitman]

If youre allowing text c.r.ap can we have swearing too.

A well placed swear word can be used very effectively.

Yeah, your right. I contradicted myself there. What I meant was I thought I saw it was a misunderstanding and that.

I should have talked to the other mods more last night. Explained it better.

You know how I feel about this issue as I've u2u'd you about it. It seems to me that although the insults have now been said they were a joke they were still said.

I'm quiet narked about this situation. Does that mean I can go and start name calling and then in the light of the next day say it was a joke?

Yes, I think mods should be a bit more lenient with name calling.

A few people need shaking up a bit.

[James]

Well I said before that I said the wrong thing before.

I shouldn't have said that. I shouldn't have told the other mods what to do.

[Lauren]

Ok, fair enough. You have apologised for that, that was big of you.

However, you told me not to bring the issue into this topic. Would you like me to create another topic for it? Because then I'm sure I'd be slated by the mods for bringing the issue into light.
It's a lose lose situation for us who are unfortunately not specialised by mods.

Just to clarify I'd just like to say i have never received special treatment!

[Sasha]

James, i think people would prefer it if i was treated like any other member.

Based on such, can you please issue me an official warning for calling stropz a "dog" & "witch" and for also talking in text speak.

I will GLADY take it, as it is TIBB rules not to have a joke or call people silly playground names or talk in "text speak"

**pound of flesh delivered to all**
**Sasha wonders what on earth would happen if i actually swore at stropz**

Hopefully, once i have recieved my warning, everyone can get back to having "fun"

Sorry Kiz if it seemed like that was aimed at you, it wasn't, just for clarification

And Sasha, sorry if it seemed like I was blaming you for the mods giving you special treatment - the only qualm I had with you was the fact you broke rules, I'm well aware you'd have preferred no special treatment.

I know you weren't honey..... i just wanted to state that fact for the record

Theres too many rules on this forum anyway. It holds it back.

I suggest slacker rules for name calling and swearing

Stricter rules for spamming

I was going to respond to this with a name-calling swear word directed at you.
But then I'd get a warning

You can throw whatever you want at me sugar tits.

Imagine all of main swear words blended into one, with a little gay insult included in it.

Am i getting my warning ? I know that i was banned last night......... but it appears NOT to be enough for everyone.

So i would really appreciate the warning, becuase i HATE all of this conflict and attacking.

James made a mistake, he never intended to upset anyone. He has apologised - what else do you want from the man?

[~Kizwiz~]

Ok.... heres where I stand on this matter, Sasha, i dont think its fair to call the comments on this thread fickle. Everyone has a right to say how they feel. A lot of people were upset and confused at last nights going ons. It was, up to a point, the funniest night on TiBB in a while with the snippets thread.

I still dont see why you posted the split thread but to cause some controversy. I think its an easy option to say that your comments/insults were a joke. I had to bite my tongue last night on many occasions. I'm not a confrontational person. You yourself were joking too in this thread I do believe. Then something changed.

This is only my opinion but I think things changed and started to get nasty when you said "me and James been in MSN the WHOLE time laughing at ur pathetic attempts"

Calling other members pathetic is something I didnt like and this comment made me think that you and James were making a mockery out of us. This might have been unintentional but that just the way I see it.

[Lauren]

Through fear of being called fickle, I'm still going to say that I agree whole heartedly with what Kiz said.

EDIT: I'd also like to add that it undermines mods attempts at upholding rules on TiBB, and undermining efforts of members that try to stick to the rules to make TiBB a better place.

I disagree.

I think the support for Stropz has been completely biased and subjective. The posts for this thread make out Sasha to be the guilty party when it is clear to anyone who reads the dispute that it is 6 of one and half a dozen of the other.

I read the dispute for a while last night and thought it was an amusing bit of banter, I had no idea people were serious, but for everyone to come whining on this thread holding Sasha responsible is total bulls*** and some of you need your heads checking.

Did Stropz break any rules last night?

(Thats a serious question, not sarcasm)

I am not whining Hitman, I'm just getting things off my chest. Of course things are never onesided BUT I have a right to respond to sasha and her comments in this Statement thread.

If you read through I have not mentioned that sasha was wholly responsible... fair from it but a lots of issues were raise from last night that need to be ironed out to clear the air.
