MrNintendo1213 01/10/18 9:53:15 PM #1:	This has literally been the rules for flaming ever since I first came to this site over 10 years ago. The ToS Says you can't call people names, even stuff like idiot, and It's been that way forever, unless they removed it for a while and brought it back. Maybe it hasn't been enforced at all times, but it's definitely exactly how the rule has always been. --- Dot Dot Dot... <cite>MrNintendo1213 posted [p:893803860] in To everyon...

UnholyMudcrab 01/10/18 9:57:28 PM #3:	My problem with it is that it seems like it's just going to encourage more trolling. Not only are the trolls not being punished, the people who will end up being punished are the people who fall for the trolling and get angry. --- http://i.imgur.com/VeNBg.gif http://i.imgur.com/gd5jC8q.gif http://i.imgur.com/PKIy7.gif http://i.imgur.com/3p29JqP.gif <cite>UnholyMudcrab posted [p:893804090] in To everyon...

Annihilated 01/10/18 10:00:47 PM #6:	Didn't SBallen go totally lax on the rules a few years ago because the mods were overwhelmed as it is? They went from "ToU violations" to "Board Etiquette" which basically was his way of saying don't be too much of an asshole. Of course too many people around there were pretty liberal with that rule, pun intended. <cite>Annihilated posted [p:893804294] in To everyon...
