This is really the crux of the issue imo. This place in general, has very limited modding, which I fully support. But there are going to be situations that are gray and will be a judgement call - that’s just life. You can’t have black and white rules for everything.
Exactly right because when you have clear rules then someone has to make a judgement call on whether or not a certain action violated said rule. Everything is a judgement call at the end of the day
Of course… it’s a lot of subjectivity, I don’t see any way around that other than banning any negative speech, which still has subjectivity…and of course changes this to something much different than the OG we love…and I think a poll would drastically show that’s not what people want.
I could get a complaint for harassment and think of course it is,…NC or Decimator can think…‘what? what a baby, this is the OG’ and vice versa. I think by a landslide all of us are mostly on the same page though and Oni has been pretty consistent while learning and navigating this.
I think syntaxless is the type of OGer as has been shown through history to be a valued one here and the type that people want around. His opinions are valid but like you said “In a perfect world”. There’s going to be subjectivity and some arbitrary things, like Oni said, this isn’t a court of law. We’re not lawyers and judges or mediators nitpicking every word or action it’s an obscure corner of the internet where there’s always going to be an edge, if there isn’t, it’s not us, it’s something else, Alta fags got rid of us for who we are. I don’t think anyone wants a FB page/group here…so how do you do that without peoples feelings and opinions being tested? You can’t
After basketball practice in the 7th grade we all came back to the locker room to shower and John O’Neil, our janitor who was all hemped up with the Downs was in the stall taking a shit.
Chester Moore, our 16 year-old classmate proceeded to grab John’s broom and smack his feet and legs under the stall wall. We all laffed and laffed and Chester turned around and held up the broom like a Tusken Raider who just ambushed Luke Skywalker.
Well when John was assaulted he immediately proceeded to hop off the pot and grab Chester in a headlock reminicent of his hero Ric Flair. John would always pretend he was with the “Fo’ Hote’men” when he wasn’t pretending he was Elvis. So he had Chester by the head and was pumping it up and down wildly. Shouting WOOOOoooooooo
Now remember he was pooping and didn’t take the time to pull up his pants and his giant retard cock was flapping up with every pump while Chester’s head was coming down to meet it. I’m pretty sure it smacked his face a couple of times because we heard that splat splat sound. Chester was obviously the biggest and toughest kid in our class but he really lost a lot of stroke after John cockslapped him.
