Proposed rule change
I would like to propose a rule change. If an admin is involved in posting in a thread they are not allowed to use their admin powers to delete posts, issue warnings or lock threads. This would help stop the situations where an admin who loses an argument can abuse their powers to remove the posts they personally disagree with.

Quote: The donations go directly to funding bandwidth & disk space on the server. I'm not sure whether you're under the impression we're getting payed for moderating the site or not, but just to make it clear; we do this for free in our spare time.
Yes I know. My point sill stands, by accepting donations from the public this is not a private site. |

So do we.
I really don't want to sound like a dick but with all respect,
without the users logging on to this site each day and writing all the posts, uploading stuff writing comments etc, all this site would be is just another soul-less database on the interwebs.
Sometimes i really think some of you would prefer this to be a purely archeological database with a stripped down search-frontend. Hell, That would save us all a lot of spare time.
Why am i even getting involved in this.
Actually, I try do do this as much as possible during my working hours. This way I can think of it as a paid activity.
Now can someone do a funny FFFFfffuuuu cartoon of Oswald when he got temp-banned??? |

No, you just got an answer based on the factual layer based on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_sides_model . |

there are two condtions, public and private. as this site isn't funded by taxes and doesn't belong to a gov organization it is private. though it does accept donations doesn't turn it public outside your universe. we do not give a fuck about the opinions of others but we also do not accept every demand of the users (some are quite abstract or barefaced).
when i compare this to forum64.de this threat would have been already closed and the one or other user temp. banned. |

The fact you still don't get it just makes you and the site look bad. The fact is you're wrong for the reasons already given. It also demonstrates a very poor attitude for a moderator to have. |

i'd remove the forum and the useless comments right now, indeed. and maybe also kick every user who didnt upload shit in the last months =P
