no it's not. i got plenty of PMs from him explaining why he was leaving. He was Pm'ing me about his gripes with this forum for a long time before he made the decision. You obviously didn't know him well.

This is a big brother forum, big brother is an adult program. there is even a warning at the beginning of the show now because people are so sensitive, it's an ADULT program. but we are expected to speak like we are talking to 13 y/o's all the time? i don't understand that.

Yes BB is an adult program but even though we are a BB forum it isn't the sole reason the forum is used these days, there is a lot of other sections.

The sexual discussion thing, yes there are younger members on here but it isn't only them that we think about when deciding what is 'too graphic' to be posted, I'm 33 years old and far from a prude but even I am shocked at times at some of the sexual things that get posted on this site, that's not to say that any sexual discussion at all is against the forum rules but there are lines that shouldn't be crossed imho, theres also an 18+ group that could be used if you feel the need to discuss more sexually graphic things (within reason of course)

I am going to hazard a guess and say that Johnny has had a few infractions that he is a bit sore about and does not feel they are justified?

No i'm not.

But it would be nice if the rules were more transparent/fairer for everyone. I'd like that to happen.

when you say take it like a man... is that vastly different from taking it like a woman?

I think one thing that members should remember when it comes to accusations of Bias and such is that I really cannot be arsed to actively hold a grudge or be biased towards someone. That takes effort and I don't care enough to hate someone to such an extent that I'd abuse my mod privileges to get back at them.

I think some members like to think that we're some sort of evil masterminds that spend our days posting in Tibb Towers planning ways to make those members suffer when that takes effort and I simply do not give enough of a **** to do that ****.

I'd say the same goes for the other mods, our lives do not revolve around making you suffer.

So when you said 'burning Wombai' was your fave tibb moment was that a joke?

Like I said before, I play up to the image of being a banhammer wielding mad man, the reality is very different.

I didn't even ban Wombai.

..well personally I think this whole thread is a perfect example of why bringing back the appeal section is not the best idea.../nor having a mod 'declare themselves' as being the one who gave out an infraction/ban...which is irrelevant anyway as they're all agreed by all active staff at the time...

Ammi you are too sweet for this discussion. and i highly doubt you've ever got an infraction. so this really doesn't concern you. no offense sweet thing.

As a member of the forum Ammi is perfectly entitled to an opinion.

..I just keep mine to myself Alex, but the reason the appeal section didn't seem to work is because inevitably, these things just become back and forth and back and forth and off topic and nothing really being achieved ...

It would be nice to have a mod that was "arsed". just saying...

I would prefer to have mods that were "arsed" about getting it right.

Taking things out of context is fun.

..and also I have to say, with Dezzy..?...if people are being silly in a thread, his 'threat of a ban hammer' is enough to calm the situation, so effective to his modding..which is why it's 'legendary'...not that he actually uses it...
