Actually pinky.. whether or not I am a member, it doesn't matter.. Members should stand up for anyone in the community.. the member rank has no meaning if your going to let a fellow srl'er get degraded like that.
I'm not going to let anyone get pushed by someone doing the same exact thing.. if this is what members is, I don't want it nor do I need it. Yeah you've gotten infractions.. so have I.. I'm standing up for another user for what seems to be a problem around here.
I am Ggzz..

Im sorry pinky but its not about the idea of an infractions it about the idea of BBQ Pit...why have such a thing where u can't vent out whats eating at you...i think the point of this is either to allow cursing, which btw is a normal form of raging and bitching, or dont allow it and close this whole section. How do you flame? by saying oh you are so dumb stupid? thats not flaming thats just stupid...Whats the point of having this section then...
And about Ggzz, thats wrong. He is a member, he should uphold the rules but the rules are flawed in making a section to vent but not allowing people to vent? you can't control what people are going to say...you can control how they react and take anger. And again i say this...whats the point of this section?
Again thats wrong for you to say something like that to another fellow member. He has as much right as you do to be here... Yes he is new but that doesn't give you the right to bash him like that. He was approved by other members to be here...
Respect Begets Respect..thats my motto...
E. Sorry for the double post

Ggzz is setting and example for how the mods should act, if one screws up, they should get reprimanded. Members here shouldn't mean shit above the free when it comes to rules, and if he wants to prove that, it is his right to.
As for me making scripts and not making drama, that is total bullshit. I stick up for my fellow members when shit isn't right and if I was a moderator I would still be doing it. As for scripting, I'm learning, but it isn't going to be my degree so I do it in my free time, maybe I will produce something in the future, but that isn't your right to judge me by. Seems to me now that you only really have respect for members, since they are the only ones who have made scripts to post. So that means all the others should be disrespected for being here? Man they have some brutal mods here.
Nothing to argue about? How about a rule change, we need it.
How about Overtime/ggzz talk to the Staff through PM, instead of getting the communities attention?
And I believe the rage is about how SRL Staff member got away with this more than why was it closed.
I rather stay, and make sure to have your 'white flag' ready 'lone soldier'.
Like I said get some respect around community, your frankly new around here, your starting some BS drama; Also, I am not saying that I have no respect for you, I just think it is wrong how you came from no where and pumping this even more, like seriously if you got a problem just talk to Hobbit privately, hell just make a group message and tell him y'alls little emotional thoughts about SRL.
Your not a lone soldier on this one mate, there are plenty of people that Have the same views as you and afraid to speak up in case of reprimand.
I know i have not written any content, or any scripts. but i have been a member here for all but a year, i am not in the mindset of saying any one is right or wrong, but What was stated this is the Barbeque pit, its meant for a Venting of the Hard days, the time to Blow off steam, not to tell one individual or a group to leave.
I know frustration plays a big part in this, but people are entitled to their opinions, and if they Vent/Say what is on their minds, why do you have or feel the need to tell them to leave?
They are just expressing their opinions as is their god given right.

My white flag won't be ready till I quit SRL so your going to be in for a while depending on when I decide to leave.
As for PMing vs. a thread.. This is a BBQ Pit bro.. get with the program. It's the community's right to know what's going on.. it's the same thing as pushing away non-members rather than pointing them in the right direciton. I'd say your attitude about this is wrong. Don't like me defending someone then don't read. The thread title was changed by the way.. the original title was "This is BS" because it is BS that he gets an infraction for using a MEME with a swear word as opposed to an entire thread with a swear word in the title.. Got anything to add to that.. feel free. Wanna defend them then feel free but you'll be on the other side of the line.
Finally Fruitbat made the thread to defend overtime.. I made a comment to defend him as well.. Don't like it then it's your loss.. Just because he is knew means shit all.. That's also another problem around here, instead of helping new users, you throw the word leech at them instantly.. Try n push them and you'll get as much PM's as I do for help. Some users don't even want to make a new thread cuz of ppl like you. Who will stand up for those guys? Not you for sure..

Try reading my posts, and there would be nothing left to argue.
Just throwing this out there, but technically none of you have "rights" in regard to this forum. There is no constitution, no charter of freedoms, nothing. We are free to censor anything and everything our hearts desire. This is not a democracy, this is not a government, this is an online forums. You do not have rights here.
Now, that being said, we do let you have input into what goes on in the forum. We do listen to your complaints. We do not censor you. We merely ask that you act maturely. We give you freedoms, but they are privileges, not rights.
As said before, I have already began rewriting and revising the rules before this ordeal even began. So really, as p1nky said, there is nothing left to argue.

STOP PM'ING ME
Instead of getting the public's attention is a stupid idea. It takes people, and votes to get things done, and the only way to get that is through the public.
As for disrespecting the public, I suggest you take your arrogant mind off this forum and back on those scripts you have been making. Atleast then you will be being productive instead of saying "close this forum boo ooh" because your just trying to cover your own ass up from your cussing.
To be honest, If the MOD closes a thread, they do it for a reason... For the best for the community, can't you tell from this thread lol, huge conspiracy and bunch of bogus. Let It Be, and I am pretty sure they all will talk to each other in Staff section of what they should do and how they can dodge this mistake they have made.
Edit:
Image macros add nothing to the discussion other than plaster your name saying "HAHA I'M FROM 4CHAN: THE FUNNIEST SITE ON THE INTERNETS HAHA". He shouldn't have warned as offensive language, but rather as spam.
I have made:
33 posts with "fuck" (59 if I count variants such as "fucked", "fucking", and "fucker").
47 posts with "shit".
12 with "bitch".
Probably hundreds of other posts with "more minor" words in it that I can't be bothered to search.
*0 of these posts have given me an infraction or warning.*
Want to know why? There are proper ways to say "NAUGHTY WORDS". Use them in extreme cases, don't overuse them, and if you're going to post them then make sure your post actually contributes to the discussion. Your post didn't, so I can see why he gave you a warning. Post quality is more important than the language used within it.

Please do not send me a PM asking for help; I will not be able to help you! Post in a relevant thread or make your own! And always remember to search first!
With all due respect to everyone who is complaining, I think y'all should act a bit mature about this matter instead of making SRL Staff look bad, there are ways to get your point across with a better attitude and maturely, other than being like:
Yeah, not cool ^Those are all the fucking posts that include the word "fuck" by Wizzup? himself. GO send him a fucking warning.
Hope you take this conversation to heart then when writing those rules. As for having rights, you are totally correct. We don't. We have privileges, and so do the moderators. One of those privileges should not be "you can cuss and swear in any forum you choose", because if that is the case, this is a sad sad forum.
My point is not to make the mods look bad...its about this section Pinky...If this section is for bitching and whining...let it be for bitching and whining lol
Hobbit, Then who's fault is it? Yours? Mine? His? Then please feel to explain that before putting anyone down...This is nonsense...you tell us that if we know the meaning of that...then explain it rather than saying " Do you know what we may have meant by "spit it all out"? No." Now thats bullshit![]()

Well see, your arguing about something totally different, I am arguing about how childish it is to deal with this type of problem, as it was handled by 'Fruit Bat' , 'Overtime' , 'ggzz'. Again instead of bashing on the Staff(who are responsible of SRL still being here), why not talk with a tad respect. Also, Hamster I have answered you and have no more to add to it.

I agree with Hamster, spitting it all out is hardly descriptive. I spit all my words out? I spit all my broccoli out at supper time? I spit out all my gum after I chew it? We really can't tell, I think a new description as well as a rule should be put into place. This swearing concept in the rules is getting mighty complicated, and I agree with Harry, if swears are used in useful context, then it isn't really any big deal, but we probable should stay away from it.
Lol I have major respect for the Mods, The mods know that...I have respect for every single mod on here and thank them for doing what they do they..but still...i think I'm arguing about something different than everyone else but still...lol
Hobbit ---> I RESPECT AND LOVE U! UR FRIENDS WITH GANDALF!

All this drama is stupid. The RULES state that inappropriate language is not tolerated. Just because you don't see what's going on behind the scenes, doesn't mean it didn't happen.
Look at the U.S. Government, there are MANY types of programs, missions, task force, operations, etc that you don't know exist or operate! Yet, the people who have the power to know do, and the people who shouldn't know don't.
Simple as that, this is THEIR site, they can do as pleased. As Hobbit stated, we have privileges, not rights.
