Sure. It was gang repping. But they all had the same opinion. Gang repping can be abused in so many different ways. Here, they were openly saying that they were against him. If they wanted a more 'stealth' attack, they could just have wrote a bullshit reason instead. It's still gang repping just it doesn't appears to be. Then I think we should ban everybody who neg repped somebody with more than 5 negative rep. Because that's gang repping.

Maybe that was an unfair parallel, but that's just because, if he weren't the owner, they would never be banned. Also, isn't it kinda demonstration? Which at least I, think should be allowed, no matter if it's in a group or alone.

Sure, most kids are immature, but that's still like saying all blondes are stupid because the majority is, get my point?

I am simply complaining as I want to give him a chance to change. If this doesn't change, I'll just leave. But I think RuneGear could be an awesome place with the right type of management.

Our team here isn't stupid. We can tell what people's intentions are. If someone finds a loop hole and abuses it, we aren't going to let him keep doing it. In terms of rules, We are a forum, not a business.

What will get you in trouble faster, being disrespectful to your brother or being disrespectful to your mom?

I am sorry if I offended kids who arent immature.

You are really saying that we need the right management on a COMMUNITY forum in order for RG to improve? Best way for RG to improve is if the members improve.

Wow, the amount of assumptions in this thread are too damn high, maxie how the hell do you know what Glenn is planning on doing. He has even Announced it publicly the features he is going to bring out. A forum is a business and it has to be profitable. and he is trying to do that by hosting contest but with a entry fee(membership).

Bullshit. The management needs to improve. They are the forums leader. It's just like saying Hitler doesn't have to improve the people does. Sure you ain't stupid, but there will always be loopholes, you can't disagree with that. You wont get any funny discussions if you keep banning everyone that doesn't agree with you. A forum without discussion is kinda worthless.

Sure, I guess bribing members to stay up with bullshit is a way you can do it.

I guess you don't understand how a community forum works. The staff are suppose to monitor the forum and do things like warnings, delete unwanted posts, etc. The management is responsible for running the forum and do things like bring new features to the site, etc. Neither the staff nor the management is expected to bring content (guides, contests, discussions, etc) to the site. This is where the community comes in. The members of the forum brings the content, but there are rules that are in place and if you break them, you face the consequences.

I was simply talkimg about features and I don't think the staff should abuse their powers. Doing something to a staff should offer the same consiquenses as it would to a normal member.

No I am saying that you are turning RuneGear to a lottery. You're bribing people with a possible reward so they actually stay here.

The problem with 90% of the points made in this thread is that your assuming a forum is a democracy. It's not.

That's the part I liked about RuneGear, it was a democracy. But as I got that verified, why not remove the whole rep system & this forum section? Why not just remove the whole thing? The main thing in a democracy is to be able to state your opinion, if it isn't a democracy, remove everything that have to do with opinions. What do you have left? The owner & a couple of asskissers. That'd be a nice forum.

He's implying that people think that their voice has a say, but in reality, it doesn't.

And now you are implying that you know reality?
Trust me, we are closest to a democracy than anything else.

The problem is, people weren't banned for stating their opinion, they were banned for being disrespectful and breaking rules.
It is not the same saying "no thanks, I don't like to eat vegetables" than saying "fuck off idiot, vegetables are for faggots, don't bring that shit to my table"
