RedHeadAngel Posted October 22 Share Posted October 22 I was reading the bans thread and saw people banned for berating the site staff. While I can understand that the terms can be infuriating for some people, attacking others over it is not the way to go. You're just going to make it worse. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you are obviously one up on those folks, as you recognize that truth, whereas, they, obviously, did not. Going on a rant at staff is just a bad plan. Nothing good will come of it, and it pretty much assures a permanent ban. While I don't agree with every policy here, it's their site, therefore, their rules. I always enjoy the folks going off on a nut about their 'First Amendment Rights'..... on a site that is privately owned..... and based in a country that doesn't HAVE that particular right defined. Never underestimate your fellow man's capacity for stupidity. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never underestimate your fellow man's capacity for stupidity. Don't get me wrong. I support the 1st Amendment, but I also understand that there are times when you need to shut up before you say something that will get you in trouble. Also, I know that not everyone recognizes the US Constitution. Why? Because not everything is in the US and, therefore, not under US jurisdiction. In other words, I have common sense. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I believe that was one of the ones I saw. 2 hours ago, HeyYou said: And that is becoming more and more rare..... Its really mis-named, as it sure as shootin' ain't 'common'...... So, should it be called "uncommon sense?" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndalayBay Posted October 23 Share Posted October 23 Well you know the old saying: "There's nothing common about common sense." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binchickendreaming Posted October 23 Share Posted October 23 Common sense is very much subjective, I've found. Though all the folks in the banning and warnings forum show me what not to do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
