I ask MCalavera, you can too!

[Charlotte Quin]

Can I join?

Sure. But if you don't mind, make it clear who you are.

I'm getting tired of the recent joke accounts there.

I'll be using a known username. I can't decide whether to use my WP one or my I2 one

Now I have Jesus in the forum.

What the fuck?

Not anymore.

Was that you?

Manny, I like you.  So don't take this personally.

Your site is fucking ridiculous.  You have twice as many rules as WP and seem to add more every day.  Yesterday you banned someone and then wrote a rule after the fact to justify it.  You can't joke about illegal acts?  You can't "impersonate" someone?  I made three posts on your board and you were rude to me four times and on the attack from the second I joined. 

Is it your intention that only WP and I2 members can join, and then they can only use pre-approved usernames?  Seriously Manny, the macho posturing needs to come down a notch (or 19) if you want to actually attract and retain quality people.  You can't have it as both a manly, macho, in-your-face-from-the-second-you-join type of place, and have it overflowing with rules about how you can joke and what your name can be.  It's hypocritical and just won't work.

[midlifeaspie]

Make that 5 times.  I see you called me a pussy for saying I wouldn't come back.  

How does that square up with:

Feel free to criticize what a member here says or does. But avoid unnecessary insults.

Oh wait, I missed this part:

The rules are up to admin interpretation. Arguing with us about what should be allowed or not is almost always futile and pointless

Overflowing with rules? Exaggerate much?

You're an idiot if you think you can play a joke there and expect to be treated normally.

Go look at how i treat the others normally and then whine.

Fine by me, mate.

Yes, it was a terribly disruptive "joke".  I registered under the name jesus.

And then instead of playing along with me there, you choose to leave. Not my problem anymore.

If you can't register as yourself, even though I thought we had nothing against each other, then you're obviously not interested in the growth of the forum and are just there to muck around.

I think you're still very upset because of your days as a WP mod. You tried to test me as an admin (thinking I would ban you) and you failed miserably. So you chose to leave and cause some drama here.

I really have no idea what you are talking about.  Why would I be upset with you from the days I was a mod at WP?  We never had any interactions to the best of my memory.  Yes, I did register using that name to make a point about your new rule prohibiting "impersonating" people.  I said so from my very first (of three) posts.

Not with me, Jesus sir. In general.

Can't see well, can't you? You need some eyeglasses to really see what I said.

Oops, was that mean? Would you also like to leave this place, too?

You are over-reacting.  I'm going to let you cool down.

This is over-reacting, compared to the following?

Hey, man, you want me to be nice with you, then allow me to treat you as such. Don't overreact and exaggerate and then expect me to stay quiet and let you twist things all you want.

I'll cool down, no worries.

All good now? I need sleep anyway.

Good night.

Thank you for the kind welcome. Maybe I should make an introduction thread

My post was, of course, an opinion.  It wasn't stated as fact, it was stated as advice.
