RKMBs Forums .::Important::. Fortress of Awesome Chat To sig or not to sig

Also, I thought there were no rules here. Posts and sigs can be too big?

So there are rules?


When there aren't any?

I was also de-modded and had a temporary name-change when I killed another forum member. I was even de-modded in the forum I left beardguy alone in!

Rob hass said in the past that he hates sig images, but allowed the option on the boards 'cause other people like them. In the effort of maintaining reasonable page load times, they have a size limit, much like the avatars (which he recently allowed to be about 50px larger).

I just think this whole "there are no rules so it doesn't matter what was said about whomod's daughter" thing is bullshit. Of course there are rules. Of course there are things that are acceptable and unacceptable to say. There has never been a time nor a place where there haven't been standards of behavior.


Also, , yes.

yes because everyone follows rob.

You're welcome, coward.

be gentle with halo, broke me down when i called him that earlier.

Which I find incedibly funny, btw.

You're the guy who only responds with , , or because if you engage anyone in substantive argument there's always the chance you might lose and...Halo's the coward?

substantive arguments about who is or isnt wanking and crying. brilliant.

yes we believe you were rejected. coward.

substantive arguments about who is or isnt wanking and crying. brilliant.

i hate to inform you but words themselves are not substantive, only if they have a meaning of substance. so if arguing if one wanked and cried or not is of substance to you then no doubt you think Halo is a substantive arguer, for i bet he has been fighting this fight his whole life...


I WIN AGAIN!

god he is retarded.

The American Government chose to reject me and apparently that means I'm a coward even though I took it in the ass for 4 years before faking an injury to get out after some medical care on the taxpayers' dime?

You haven't been here 5 minutes and I've already folded!

So in essence - rules.

Not really. It's limitation of resources. You can post a huge pic in every post you make, but y'can't put it in yer sig or have an avatar bigger than whatever the current forum program allows. Just like you can't hit reply in one thread and have it post in a different thread just 'cause you want to. There are regulations based on technological achievement. You can put a picture of a rotting anal fissure infected with pop fly maggots in your sig, just so long as it stays within regulated dimensions. If you want to end each post with a bigger pic of a rotting anal fissure infected with pop fly maggots, you just gotta keep the image file handy so you can paste it on before the sig line.

It's not rules so much as management by GOB. Mostly this place is a democratic anarchy, but in the end there's an omnipotent bastard that makes abstract decisions to fuck with us sometimes. Just like your god.

the oosh is right.

i clearly don't mind what the post content includes. from anyone. it can be pictures of poo or any one of w&c's ramblings. post on! signatures and avatars, however, are a larger drain on resources to the boards. i don't know why. perhaps it was the republicans, or the hive, i'm not really sure. i'll confer at our next meeting and update you. whatever the case, they negatively affect the program, and thus i gotta keep'em limited, so's the board don't asplode.

whatever the case, the content doesn't startle or offend or impact the boards, so its not the same issue.

more importantly, and directly related, the post content doesn't impact me in any way, shape, or form. even the incessant w&c whining. if it did, i assure you, within an instant, i could click a link and change every single one of w&c's "spaaAAaaaam" posts to pictures of oprah. or, simply have them all deleted from the record. the boards admin section makes that essentially effortless.

so, clearly, with that at my leisure, were the posts to have been anywhere and any level remotely annoying, that'd have been done. i don't do that because i don't want to. and i don't like pictures of oprah. and because w&c is just your typical internet dungeons and dragons character, impotent and ineffectual. there's simply no reason to do it.

so, long story less long, i told w&c about the sig image, who later refused and then then forgot the question and then chocolate rained with the phrase "idiot" or "moron", i don't recall, but it was awesome. the dance went on for a number of tries until i finally realized he was just trying to dance with me.

so, cutting to the chase, i gave him the option. if he's simply going to disregard the instruction, i'd inturn disregard my option to allow his posts.

such a huge majority of the insurgency chooses to post here now -- i'm assuming because w&c's brothers and sisters remain at the other forum, waiting -- so wouldn't the posters here be devastated to find out w&c messed up the program, and had the forums running slower than they should?

of course!

and, thus, the instructions i gave to w&c. so far, after our rocky start, w&c has done a great job at listening. i'm assuming when he PM'd whomod for thread support (is that what you called it?), whomod shared with him some level of advice on the matter, which has been great -- i really appreciate that, whomod!




hey, howsit goin.
