No one got banned for just saying swear words, so I'm not sure what you are talking about.
Rules 1 and 2 basically state "No cussing/respect other members". If someone gets an infraction for not doing either of those, it should not be a surprise that should turn into several PMs.
If someone says **** and they don't get in trouble for it, that does not mean they can assume since they 'got away with it before', then they can keep doing it and not expect any consequences. What's the reasoning behind trying to bypass the filter anyway?
More cake.

More Cowbell in the form of More Mods! And I'd be the first to volunteer for the new MIT program, that is Mod In Training lol.

For whatever reason, the internet is plagued by anonymity to a degree that one thinks statements such as this are just fine.This, as well as all other forums, is for the free exchange of information. If someone says something that is incorrect, than be constructive and correct him/her in a way that doesn't demean oneself (such as 99BlackPonyGT has done to himself above). Telling someone they are a complete idiot or saying his loved one makes them sick, serves no purpose except a sad desire to spew venom at others.
As you were..

See.....this is why my board has no rules. If you show up there and act like a retard, you get treated like one. Hence, our limited population of retards.
But we only have 2 sponsors and they DGAF.
There's far more innaccurate tech on this board than any other I've seen. Mention MF on SVTP and you'll get laughed at....kinda sad, really....

seeing that I haven't said much in here but more or less just listened to just about every body bitch, and I feel the need to post in bolt now to get everyone ones attention....
Let me tell y'all a little bit about myself, which may be like some of you and the moderators...
I am a 38 year old that works in the insurance and investment industry. I have a daughter and my "live in" GF of 6 years has 3 daughters. Being around this many kids (girls at that) I know what it's like to listen to people instigate and tattle over petty crap. When at work I can't get on to this site or my personal email or most other sites, so I'm not here 24/7 nor are the other mods. We don't get paid, don't get any "kick backs" or special deals as moderators, we do it to try to help. It seems like most of you feel like you could do a better job, great but keep in mind that our job is to watch over you... not the opposite! It does help if you see something getting OUT OF HAND to give us a heads up, but.....
I will not the members name but before in the past when I'd get home from work and log on to my email or this site it would never fail I'd have 2-3 messages daily from this member that would tattle over petty crap and he's a big instigator as well. This same member is the one that's always bitching about everything. He's been warned several times by myself and other mods to "cool it" before getting any infractions.
This is how my day went today:
Left for the office @ 8:00 am, got home @ 7:30pm, before getting changed or eating dinner I logged on to MF.com to see what was going on with this thread! I sat down, ate dinner and already got a PM from this member. I replied "okay..." b/c you know what... I haven't even taken off my %&$#@*! shoes. I got changed, put on my running shoes, went for a 2 mile jog, come back and have another PM!!!
You know what, I'm here to help, but I do have a life of my own!
I hear about how we should be consistant, y'all should too. Some of y'all are so mellow one minute and fly off the handle the next! And y'all are the ones that consume most of our time on here.
If you don't like the way we mod the board then GTFO and go elsewhere!

Statements like this are for those who have lost their argument or just don't have one and resort to ad hominem attacks... very sad indeed For whatever reason, the internet is plagued by anonymity to a degree that one thinks statements such as this are just fine.
This, as well as all other forums, is for the free exchange of information. If someone says something that is incorrect, than be constructive and correct him/her in a way that doesn't demean oneself (such as 99BlackPonyGT has done to himself above). Telling someone they are a complete idiot or saying his loved one makes them sick, serves no purpose except a sad desire to spew venom at others.
