I thought you were banned?
Anyway, yes hearing horrible news is a great excuse to fly off the handle and lash out at those around you..
In fact flaming on a forum, and trying to raise the counter on a site after you are banned from it are great signs of maturity..
This is exactly what you did, and here is an analogy..
You beat the sh*t out of your wife because you haven't had a good week, and just found out horrible news. Does buying her flowers make it all better?
Well, Im gonna play devils advocate here for just a second. I'll start with the easiest first.
The counter was not him, if was Rubi and Mofo, and a donation was made because that did cost Qhimm money, that doesnt change that it was done, but I think that does account for a reparation, Rubi and Mofo were not unbanned for that, but I think if the donation was equal or greater than the monitary cost of the attack, then all that was lost was time, and thats in the past. So if that can be that, we shall move on.
As for the flaming, yes he did, he admits that, and Caddberry, youre quite right, bad news is no excuse to not be civil, but let he who is without sin cast the first stone. I think weve all lost our temper at one time or another. No, it doesnt make it right, but on the other hand, he was banned for this one thing, and Qhimm made the decision to reduce that ban to a warning, and I dont see that as innappropriate.
So I think that as long as this scenario isnt repeated, if he remains civil, knowing that if he acts otherwise punishment wont be reduced the next time, then there shouldnt be any more problems. I dont mean look over this incident, but then how many times did you all say Rubi should have been banned? Give him another chance, everyone deserves that right?
I will say though that your flowers were a nice gesture.
Yea, they's purdy.
Haha.
