people....making very wideranging and patently false
accusations
on public boards is not a constructive idea......
if you have an issue or questions about something..talk
to the person
harassing them on a board or worse yet making inflammatory
accusations on subjects which youcoldnt possibly know
the truth of is a very bad idea.
Thanks, Ill get off my soapbox now

One thing's for sure. Banning people is the best way
to kill any intelligent
debate.

welp..maybe not, but if a person continues to abuse
and harass
other people on boards while not paying any attention
to the truth
then banning is the only treatment that will cure such
childishness

So let me get this straight. Someone posts something
that is against you
so you ban them, delete their posts and say that they
were lying. That sounds
simple, but I still can't help feeling there's something
missing.
*think*.........hmmmm.

Hmmmm I notice you say "people" and not "wizards".
So I guess this means
a person could get banned for not telling the truth
about another player,
or a wizard could get banned for not telling the truth
about another person.
That right?
Hmmmmmm that doesn't sound right.
Maybe MD needs a Ministry of Truth *grin*.

Subject: as a matter of fact
yes you can get banned for harassing "people"
whether you harass a player or a wizard the fact is
your behavior
is unacceptable...
and yes you are correct that wizard are not above this
rule....
I can think of several cases for all the permutations
of this
situation that have been enforced

4. If you have some grudge with this, take it elsewhere,
or wait till
the new site is up.

Does a rape victim try to talk it over with the rapist,
or do they scream
for help?
xerxes> 1. This MUD is shut down.
I think that's one of the things that Boog was trying
to point out to Turin.
xerxes> 2. No one gives a shit what you think.
I don't really understand this point. Turin certainly
seems to give a shit,
as do others... hmm actually maybe I understand. I
confused the word "think"
with "post" perhaps.
xerxes> 3. Bans are none of your business.
If I'm banned, I'd call it my business. Hey Xerxes,
if Turin bans you,
is it your business?
xerxes> 4. If you have some grudge with this, take

xerxes> the new site is up.
By which time the incident will be forgotten.

Subject: Post on Simon's behalf
Here is a post that Simon gave me to put up.
I'm just wondering again: Boog posted, and the post
was promptly deleted, because Turin says they were
harassing and untrue. I don't remember the exact words
in da post, but I thikn that the main points were:
1) Turin had a secret character named Pancho
2) Turin used to go ld with one character and
have another on same time
3) Turin complained about getting killed by
Spike and the ingenious use of an anshelm guard, and
ended up not having the death count.
Now I'm pretty sure that in Boog's posts he wasn't outwardly
hostile, just stating what he though was true. Well
Turin admits to 1 and 2, and I was in the room watching
when 3 happened, so as I posted several time (all of
which got deleted) what exactly was Boog lying about?
Now I'm also wondering, if these were all untrue, why
not just post something saying jeez boog you must be
smokin something, that's all false because...etc. etc.
When you delete posts, you just make people think
hey, the post must have been true. I really don't
think all this crap has a place on a board cause it's
not really interesting, but for you to delete posts
and or players for things they post on an open forum
board, which broke no rules other than that cloudy
harassment one, well that's just censorship. So here's
my summary: 1) You have yet to say what was untrue,
2) You have yet to say what was offensive. If you
say that Boog and his posts were deleted by you solely
because they were offensive, then please summarily
delete yourself for using the F*** word twice in conversation
with me.
BTW this is Simon who is apparently banned for 100 Days
for asking why Boogs posts were erased.
