I'm taking a position of active non violent resistance to such conflict.
Man with dogs, I'll see you on your front lawn tomorrow morning with 1000 protestors carrying placards until you admit that your arguments are not thought out and that ONE joke involving the use of the word "Rod" in Hot Rod's name was already too much.
Besters, I'm going on a hunger strike until you say you're sorry for calling him a prat. Or until I'm hungry.

Man with the dogs, theres a few things I beleive you are overlooking or do not understand. Please note I am not stating this as fact, but as my own personal observations after reviewing some of (but not all) your posts.
Let us move on to some of the forum rules.
1. Respect peoples’ right to their own opinion. You may disagree with them, but that does not make their opinion wrong
As we are a discussion forum, we have many points of view. You are more than welcome to your opinions, and the expression of them, unless they are of a racial, sexual, or homophobic nature, as stated in rule #2. We do not mind you stating your opinion.
However... your comments and statements show lack of mutual respect. Thats what has these people up in arms I am willing to believe. Saying "I'm right and you are wrong, end of story" defeats the purpose of having discussion. Your dismissive behavior towards others opinions is NOT something that is taken to lightly around here.
Example of such behavior:
Also, while I may not approve of things other people have been saying in this and your other related topic, you have brought it upon yourself by violating other general rules.
7. If you have an issue with an administration decision please contact the administration staff by email or private message, do not post about it in the forums. Such topics will either be deleted or locked after we have viciously mocked yo ass. Ha.
The fact that you posted publicly about what should have been a private message to Best First, only furthers the tendency towards ridicule. This was a personal issuse if anything, and doesn't belong in GD.
Lastly,
5. Spam post/topics will be removed/locked. Unless they are funny. Please note the administration staff reserves the right to define ‘funny’.
While not my particular brand of humor, I assume one or more of the mods are interested in what direction these two similar(and thereby spam) conversations will take, so I will not take the inititive to lock these topics. Yet.
Oh, and welcome to Tranfans, by the way.

Example of such behavior:
In this case the word 'honey' comes off as though a parent speaking to a child. In fact, the majority of what you say, regardless of your actual intention, comes off as though you are intentionally talking down to the people in the discussion. Again, this is looked down upon here.man with the dogs, dismissing saysadie wrote:You kind of started this one honey.

I think maybe we could stand to lock ONE of 'em up, though. They ARE kinda redundant. They ARE kinda redundant.
Let's keep this one. BF's ire is so much easier to find yourself under than Obfleur and Sadie.
While keeping references to insect secretions out, I WOULD like to say that Ob and Sadie are scrunchy wunchy little balls of happy happy joy joy yes they are! yes they are!

You dirty baaaaastard. I can just imagine you, sitting around in your fancy new flat, getting a pedicure and lighting your cuban cigar with a 10 pound note as a match, thinking you're so better than us, just because you found a new flat and people hate you. Bastard!

Awh... I take a few days away and miss all the fun.
It is my cunning plan to root out all the insurrectionists!
I bet Predabot will post not understanding it...

Yeah, really.
If we had known all it would take to draw TT and LROP out of the woodwork would be a thread dealing with BF not liking you, Predabot would have done this ages ago......

Nope, moving to South London. It has a roof terrace. And i have the biggest room. And one of my flat mates is goig to buy us a £2600 HD-TV. And it is near all manner of cool stuff. And actually not that expensive.Brendocon wrote:Nifty. Same locale?found a new flat today - quite choice.
In fact, if i wasn't me, i'd hate me too.
But in an envious, lustful way, obviously.
No. Short at the sides and then short on top but not so short on top that i can't make a bit of a mess of it - so make sure it has some texture as well. Also i would like the slghtly guilty pleasure of having my hair washed by an 18 year old girl beforehand.Karlyboo wrote:{trims Besty's hair neatly} short back and sides today, master?
I tell him this everytime - but on the plus side i pay him peanuts. Literally.

I beg to differ. Stern, only when presented with douchebags who decide that they feel the need to walk around like they own the place.Predabot wrote:The mods have always been somewhat stern, and in their own way, a bit dry.
Dry? Im curious as to how you define dry. You kinda have the wrong idea 90% of the time, so i'll let you refine your comment.

I usually tend to define dry as "complete lack of wet"
And given that the human body consists mostly of water, I'd consider your observations concerning Predabot to be completely and utterly spot on, O Great Mod.
