What happens if someone violates a rule in a thread that will be quickly deleted?

OK, but if they decide to forbid such behavior, I hope you get put on retroactive double secret probation for that awful, reprehensible, unforgivable misdeeds. You should have known better!!

Unless they decide that such witty acts are delightful, in which case I hope you get a box of sunshine hand-deliverered.

So it would be cool to call them cunts, even in GQ? Nice!

Guys, just ignore prr. He’s bored it looks like.

I’m just going to play it safe and not post in threads that will be removed within ten minutes anyway.

Remember that not every spam report turns out to be the genuine article. People make mistakes and not every report is found to be correct in its initial assessment.

But please keep reporting what you see; that’s important.

Just follow the rules everywhere and you’re not likely to have a problem. Most of all “Don’t be a jerk.”

Well then what is, damnit?

:stuck_out_tongue:

He always looks like that. It’s normal for him. Just pat him on the head, and say “that’s nice”. He’ll be fine.

Oh, goody, another thread about me. Guys, don’t you realize that the Mods don’t like that? They don’t want you to make the whole thread about my own personal disfunctionality–hell, they’ll probably shut this down entirely now, 3,2,1…

Well in that case, you’re a c

Nah, way too risky.

I wish to clarify my earlier posts.

If there is a pretty obvious spam thread, and anyone wishes to disparage the spammer, you have my permission.

You cannot insult another legitimate poster, howerver. That’s just common sense.

That’s all I meant.

Interesting new word. I’ll add it to my vocabulary.

:smiley:

For a fleeting moment it seemed as if that server-transition glimmer of pandemonium (what did we call that?) was going to be given a chance to shine through in brief, Narnia-like shimmers in spam threads.

Of course, it’s the age-old debate: If you’re a jerk, but no one sees it, are you really a jerk?

Not to be confused with the *other *age-old debate: If you jerk it in private, can anyone hear you if you make a noise? (To which I say emphatically and shamefully, yes.)

[*]Doper B is a dick.

75% of the warnings I’ve gotten are for jerking it… err… being a jerk. I think that qualifies me as an expert in “jerk”. My expert opinion is that you’re a jerk, even if you’re jerking it with the curtains closed.

[sub]Stop jerkin’ that gherkin. Although it might “tickle your pickle”, you might get whacked off. Can I shove any more euphemisms in here? Let’s see: Rod. Johnson. Pole. “Spank the Monkey”. Tool. Uhhhh… huh… huh… he said “tool”.[/sub]

Reported.

Just kidding.

Seriously now.

The rules are the rules wherever you go on this message board.

That means if you have a problem with a spammer that takes you to PitWorthy invective, you’ll need to Take It To The Pit, because that is where those things live.

It makes no difference whatever the target of your flamefest might be, if the OP is not already in the Pit you cannot throw down in the thread.

The theoretical life expectancy of the thread does not matter and is not a factor in these considerations.

Though we have not strictly enforced such situations in the past (because we have not needed to) please don’t make us have to go there.

What she said.

Both of you (Tuba, Ed) lighten the fuck up already. This is a silly thread. In this silly thread, people are posting silly things. That happens here. Nobody is getting warned because somebody tells a spammer to go fuck a cactus. Jeeze…maybe switch to decaf.

When you’re in ATMB, follow the ATMB rules. Don’t do this again.
