But Darkest Hour is legitimately retarded...he thinks giants live in the interior of the earth. It's not an insult, just a statement of fact.

This is the discrepency we're debating. Its very evident from your own words that this didn't stay as simple as "person B."

If you wanted to contest my response alone - you did, and I explained myself. But you've taken it beyond that, and here we are.

Well come to think of it such a thread for addressing issues may not be a bad idea.

I don't think you started things off on a good note though. I worry that this might create some hostility between you and regular posters, I already have issues of my own, I'd hate to see you get into a similar situation.

No you took it beyond. I said one sentence 'a bit uncalled for' and then you took it to where it was.

But yet again, you still haven't backed up the point about insulting someone but yet inracting others for doing so.

And I've said from the jump I've not handed out infractions for that. So I'm not holding anyone to different standards.

People can read our exchange, and they are free to do so. But what you don't understand is from that side of the debate, statements like yours breed problems for anyone trying to regulate quality here.

We have members, regualr and otherwise who like to make hay out of nothing. And if I simply delete all this and close the thread it just bubbles up and causes more problems else where.

You can't simply bring up that there is a double standard and then retreat behind "all I said was be nice" because its causing unforseen issues down the road. If you think there is a double standard here, say so - but this won't be a coup while I'm in the debate.

1. You have handed out infractions for insulting people.

2. You insulted someone

3. When pointed out that this is hypocritical you blow it all up and make a crazy thread that brings into question the whole site and all mods, when really the point was at you alone.

People usually only get infractions for repeated insults, not just one.

Good, then the fact is that insulting shouldn't be done.

Can you not read? I want the name of someone I've given an infraction to.

And the attempt to paint me as crazy is one sentence from anticipation and some hope that you can win. I've laid out why things were done, and thats for people to judge on their own. Just the same, this debate couldn't have gone on in the Miley Cyrus thread - but I believe the debate should be had.

Its an exchange of ideas in a subforum of the lounge - it has a long reaching purpose and rationale.

Now, are you going to tell me I handed out infractions again?
