Again... ANYBODY using a quote tag can make up whatever they want and say somebody sent it to them.
It is better and fairer to all to let the admin handle the situation. You could trash somebodies reputation in a matter of seconds...

Excuse me? Wasn't you who posted that if I forwarded a PM to you you wouldn't believe it?

WTF.

Is this all in reference to a vague reference like 'you will regret it'?

I said from YOU... not normal people

But when YOU did say you had proof... we followed up and took action... DIDN'T WE

So you seem to be the one flying in the wind

I was trying to organize a protest

a mass posting of PMs but a large group of apolytoners

this thread just discusses the problem

it does not try to influence the Mods/Admins through civil disobedience

I was going to post simliliar threads in all the forums to get a mass group of people to post their PMs all at the same day

you and markos would have the choice of banning everybody, or changing policy

(actually apparently people needed some more convincing)

You try that... and you will restricted... and they will all be deleted.

This is the place for site discussions. If you have a problem with this site and you don't want to do it here, take it up with the owners via PM, or email.

There are ways of discussing the rules of this site.
It isn't a democracy.
You can post here... like you have.
Or bring it directly to the owners of this PRIVATELY OWNED SITE.

The choice is yours. Plus, it only looks like a few people anyway

Tired of ads?

Well I'm not trying to stir anything up - it really doesn't help my cause.

But I'm counting on you to stick to your position no matter what Ming - after all, you came up with the stupid rule.
