S.P.I.N. Rules enforcement Got spare money?

A citizen of Spain, Arnelos, has violated the rules of S.P.I.N. in this thread:

http://www.apolyton.net/forums/show...&threadid=91831

This poll is to determine whether the public would like Arnelos to accept the punishment as dealt out in the Rules within the first post and place the following in his Sig until Friday:

"I am a stupid idiot who can not even understand the simplest rules of good fun and polite conversation."


Choices:

Yes
No
My Phrase is Better (see below)
Banana

Poll will expire Saturday, July 19

yes...subtle there, expiring one day after enforcement would be over anyway

Must be a warmonger thing...

This is an outrage! When the laws that are clearly written and known by all are so flagrantly dismissed by wanton agents of chaos like this Arnelos, no one is safe!

Arnelos should place the following phrase in his sig file:

"I broke the rules of SPIN and all I had to do was post this stupid sig."

Yes, Togas does have a better phrase.

SPIN 3 will have to use it instead.

Two votes for 'no'!

SPIN is great and entertaining. Hats off to UnO for a wonderful idea. But I do miss the comments, the dialogue, the jabs, the retorts, and the triple thumbs up for something really inspirational, that is part of a regular thread.

UnO can then strip the comments for the collating the articles.

Kudos to Arnelos for testing the waters - but I think you will end up with the sig nonetheless.

I see that Beta has stumbled upon the REAL reason for this 'poll'.
DO WE WANT RESPONSES IN THE SPIN THREAD?


It also Appears that Arnelos, at least, caught the subtle humor in the first post.

It'd be better if it were correct--most of the time now I just idle and play Red Faction. Then again, it's just like a chatroom with guns, so I won't tear him down or anything.

(Actually, it ain't half bad if you consider the rest of the quality come-backs )
