When did this place turn into NAZI MOTHERFUCKIN GERMANY? So far everything was what Caltrops was supposed to be, then it turned into NO PORN NO ANGRY PEOPLE COMING IN AND POSTING LIKE 20 TIMES, THEY MUST ALL BE DESTROYED. No wonder SB prefers socialism. He is pretending to act all "war is bad" and shit, but when someone does something he doesn't like it's all ban ban and ban.

I would be concerned about bandwidth if 20 posts were enough to blow it the fuck out.

No inlined porn was a rule from the beginning. No spam was a rule from the beginning. Nothing has changed. We just haven't had to enforce anything before a few days ago because nobody did anything stupid. S_Forgel got banned twice because he came back on another IP and started to spam again. What you don't seem to understand is that faggots who are spamming will continue to do so if there is nothing preventing them. It's also a big fucking headache for the admins to deal with spam since I haven't written an admin interface yet. Cleaning up that Zseni bullshit from last night took at least half an hour.

It's worth pointing out that S_Forgel came back a THIRD time (yes, that was him I responded to, kids) and didn't spam . . . and you know what? That IP wasn't banned. He was a newb, and we try to encourage their participation as part of a giant, shouting, angry family

But knowing what the rules are, and breaking multiple rules at once in a giant flameout . . . no offense but that's like standing naked in the street in front of a group of hostages you've taken, painted with a big target sign on your chest, and then pulling a gun out of your ass which you procede to fire on the SWAT team with.

You're going to get smacked down. HARD. And that time, even the sniffling rookie isn't going to say to the big gruff sarge afterwards, "yeah but did I really HAVE to pull the trigger? I dunno, man . . . I just - I just dunno." No, he's going to roll his eyes, say "what an asshole," and grin a little grin as he cleans off his gun.
