Does this have something to do with the flag flying post getting a lot of personal attention ?

Some one was all over that thread like white on rice....................................

Personally I have never used the "Foe/Ignore/you make me soooo mad" switch, but really, that's all it takes to regain your composure.

If I was losing my ever loving mind over some Internet Commando/Troll/ Poly Sci Major, I would hit the "Foe/Ignore" button.

Lose the tension people, it isn't worth beating your head on your keyboard and quitting the forum.

I could think of one involving gen nonsense, but it got deleted.

It wasn't just him that attacked, but others who attack him as well. I can't remeber the details but I know it was over him calling ATF and the local pd over something

I remember that... A lot of people got a vacation from that. There were also a few members who said they were taking their ball and leaving... Who did for a few days. They are back now.

General Nonsense is also perma-banned from here for other reasons. He was a huge asset to WaGuns... He brought a lot of members to the site, did everything he could to spread the word, give-a-way schwag and would give you the shirt (usually a WaGuns shirt) off his back if you were cold... But even the poster boy wasn't immune.

So, I think that GN is a testament to show that when we say there is no favoritism, we mean it.

what i am talking about is the constant pot shots from a certin shit bag that needs to get a life, i have hit that little ! button but everytime i do nothing happens. when i was "attacked" yes he went out of his way to break the CoC's not a fucking thing happened to that dirt bag (different one) but the first one is getting very very old.

that is why i took off my waguns sticker from my truck and only come back on here every now and then. but do i still help out new guys? yup sure do there is a new FFL in Yelm that was trying to learn how to get around here and i took the time to help him out. will i tell people they should come to this site? nope will not do it anymore sorry not after the shit that has happened. PS my vag is sand free

I guess we just arnt the chest thumping patriots that you are. I'm also apparently a lefty in your ultra mega right wing extreme eyes, damn.

Peace out trout.

MRC.....

The only way you're a lefty is when your right is tired of tugging the taffy.....

You know? Typically we just trash the "I'm taking my ball and leaving" threads, because they are childish and since you are leaving, meaningful discussion rarely follows... But this one has struck a special chord...

There are a few on this site that seem to get away with consistently inciting verbal riots but never get time off. God forbid you call them on their Bullshit and you win time off instead of them!!! Whatever happen to "it takes 2 to fight?"
Sorry to see ya go

Jesus I am tired of people using this fucking excuse..

Gary, calling you to the mat. Give me ONE example where somebody has been "consistently inciting verbal riots" and never gotten a time off. Can you? I bet you can't. I bet you can come back and give a situation where you were banned and the other person wasn't though... Even though that other person was, they just don't whine to the entire membership about it.

Let me lay it all out for you, and the rest of the membership. You have ZERO clue about what happens behind the scenes. You have ZERO clue about what disciplinary actions we dish out and to whom. Yet you have no problem stepping up on your wine barrel soap box and preaching complete and utter bullshit.

I direct this to all the people who think that there are people here who have a free pass. There isn't a free pass. You think banning a person here in WaGuns is just a simple flip of the switch? Think again. In order to get banned from WaGuns, you really have to be an asshole, dick, or really cross that line. We have a "tribunal" of sorts, where before a person is banned, it is discussed, openly between all the mods and assholes admins. Sure, there is that special few who get the tribunal after the switch gets thrown, but it's still discussed. There even has been a time or 2 where the group felt the initial smackdown was a little harsh and reduce the ban... There has also been the opposite, where a temporary cool down has turned into a nice, long vacation.

Think there is this one moderator that has a hard-on for you and is consistently stalking you waiting for you to cross that line? Think again! Honestly... We don't care. We all follow the same set of rules, same CoC, same... everything. I can understand that getting banned may feel like a personal shot to your balls, but it's not to us. We love all of you, and it hurts us discipline you just as much as it sucks to be disciplined. We discipline because YOU have shown the lack the ability to control yourself by following the very few, and very simple rules that we have. Rules that were created mostly, BY your fellow members.

Wonder why you got banned and another person didn't or did as well? Guess what, it doesn't matter why or why not that person did or did not get their account suspended. All that matters is why did YOU get your account suspended. No doubt if you get sent on a vacation, you did something wrong. Can you admit that? Can you see that you lacked the proper ability to control yourself and so we took you offline to protect you and our fellow members? Yes? Great, welcome back! No? Lame, the defense rests your Honor.

We are a VERY diverse group of people, spanning races, sexes, mental capacity, firearm knowledge, orientation, religion, backgrounds, nationality, blood alcohol content, etc. You are not always right, neither are they.

If you have a problem with a member, you have a few choices.
1) Ignore it. We are all different, accept that and move on.
2) Add the person to your foe/enemy list (yes, that means you need to resist the urge to click on their posts)
3) Report it! See that triangle, hit it. Let us know why it is a violation of the CoC.

If you feel like you need to make it your life's quest to prove somebody wrong on the internet, you are not going to have a good experience here.

Listen Gary, Mash Man, Rivitman, and anybody else who seems to have a sandy vagina. I am sorry. I am sorry that I/we cannot serve your every want, wish, need or demand. I am sorry if we have failed to protect you from yourself, or the members who scare you. I personally apologize to all of you for not being able to back you up in times when you haven't been able to control yourselves. But, I cannot promise that my apology will change me/us/this/them.

I can promise though, that nobody is above the rules. Which is what this thread seems to be about.

Will this thread last on here for a while? Probably not. I'll probably come to my senses later on and trash it, for the greater good and all that.

If anybody feels that they have been treated unfairly, please reach out to Steve (madpick) AND I, in a PM or email.

Example(s)...
Rencorp just won 3 days off because an individual who also is not a citizen - you know the rest, you gave him the vacation.

Me! In November I got 2 days off for questioning the feedback system when someone doesn't do a deal but gets positive feedback. When I comment to a certain person "It's a good thing you aren't elected" I get 2 days off!

You want a diverse community but when crap hits the fan you don't punish BOTH Parties involved. Hello, it takes 2 to fight!

Good, let's talk about those for a second.

1st - Rencorp. He violated the CoC, and he got banned for 3 days. This is shortly after he violated the CoC and got a warning for it. Does it really matter WHO he violated it against? I mean, if it does, then we are playing favorites right?

Now, you.... You questioned the FB system. And when we gave you an answer to the question, you freaked the fuck out in PM's against MadPick and I. You got banned for that, 2 days as well. You kept on taking pot shots and Steve and I, after numerous PM's where we were trying to talk with you about our reasonings... Your final PM, when you said; "Yes it's your site and you have executive order privilege. I guess you're lucky you aren't elected".. We had finally had enough.


Now, again, please go back to my first post and provide my an example for what you are claiming....

Nope, no and in the vagina. You asked and I replied. The fact is that people make heated/stupid remarks and when someone gets in their face over it you should be giving them BOTH time out for (A) breaking the code of conduct and (B) starting the issue in the 1st place. I will say for someone to get time off for questioning the powers at be is pretty damn petty.

Folks I'm on facebook and NWFA

PS, Freeked out???? BULLSHIT

[Massivedesign]

Oh, and to add.. Rene left me a VM shortly after he was banned. He knew why he was banned and apologized. He came back in his 3 days time and life has been grand.

Lol.. We have never banned a person over asking why we do something a certain way.. In fact, we ENCOURAGE it. Just recently a bunch of members help modify the revision to the CoC.

Sometimes BOTH people get time out's.. It's actually the most common scenario actually. A lot of weight goes into history, post intent and actual CoC violations.

As mentioned above in MY OP.. There are 3 options that YOU as a concerned member can do about a post or set of posts you do not like. I suggest you follow those guidelines and let the mod staff do their work. If you would like to apply for a moderator position, please feel free to apply.

I will come to the resolve that you cannot provide the information in which you had no problem defaming us about. I'll just chalk this up to a life lesson. I won't ban you or anything....
