Valik Posted May 24, 2012 Posted May 24, 2012 Permanent block. Fasten your seat belts, this one is going to take awhile. Yesterday I locked thread. As you can see the user was incredibly argumentative to members trying to explain the rules. After locking the thread I received a PM from the user. Here is the exchange that followed. tip.fbi.gov Is there a particular reason you are spamming me? You may want to review the definition of spam. As you please: noun 2. ( lowercase ) disruptive messages, especially commercial messages posted on a computer network or sent as e-mail. Your PM to me qualifies. It's disruptive and it was sent over a computer network. So again, why are you PMing me this rubbish? Think well on your answer, otherwise you will be removed from this forum. I Saw What You Did. I Am Just Letting You Know. I think your threat to remove me just for PMing you one thing (and then calling it spam) is well over the top. I question if at this stage you still develop, or if your main job is to remove people. I would disagree with you but I am afraid of doing anything you may dislike. For example: PMing you, as it seems disruptive to do so. If I have questions, I will definitely avoid disrupting and PMing you, and post them on the forums and/or PM other users. P.S. I would also point out an error in your last message to me but I think that might be rude, and it is trivial. (Or what I think is an error, obviously.) At this point I had already decided the user needs to go away but I softened slightly and was just going to ignore him and give him one last chance. Then I checked the reports and I found a report from him on my message where I stated he would be removed: Threats qualify as objectionable content. Threat detected. So to sum up we have:Game automation.Arguing with members.PMing someone unsolicited.Spamming.Arguing with a moderator.Not listening to a moderator.Rudeness (Questioning whether or not I still develop).Abuse of the report feature.And those are just our rules. Never mind the general stupidity and insanity on display. Good times.
