well that was a nice break. at least macgirl was kind enough to send me a warning with some interesting pics attached. either way, good times are in store for the future. i personally think that was a pretty weak post to get banned for, but we all know the moderators have the final say so i bent over and took it (not like i had much of a choice). either way, good to be back, even though i'm sure some/most of you wish i wasn't. cheers

Now that the moderators have chopped off two arms and a leg, theres not much left to fight with. I guess what I am saying is choose your final battle wisely. I know if I was on my last leg I would do less fighting and more observing, because a one legged man with a target on his back won't last long antagonizing anyone. It may not be your "style", but I would suggest you review each post before you submit it making sure you are not going to be flaming people. I say that because you have a tendency to flame alot, and right now is not a good time to continue being brash. Hopefully you can cut the crap, last a bit longer, and even gain some respect by being respectful. Here is to hoping you can make a turnaround.

I never said anything about wanting you to be an asskisser. How about going halfway and being somewhere in between a butt smoochin asskisser and a brash antagonizer. I wouldn't try blaming your mess on Macgirl being too strict, because you started with loose reins, they got tightened up when you started flaming. Do you think you are the only person around here that wants to flame comments? I'm sure alot of people in here would like to flame on some of the more ignorant comments but they have the strength to employ self control and not surrender to their emotions. Do you have no self-control over what you submit here?

If you disregard the forum rules again, it may not be me who addresses it - I'm not the only mod here. It's your choice whether or not you stay within the forum's guidelines, and that requires no ass-kissing whatsoever - just about everyone else here manages to do it without any problems.

OK, I failed at ignoring this thread - coz it keeps showing when I click New Posts.
I'm sure macgirl can answer for herself quite capably (which must make me a lame kiss ass I guess) - but my own quick thought is:
Maybe you want to just look after yourself, not worry about pointing out other violations from other people. If you got kicked off a sports team for breaking team rules, I don't think it'd be a good strategy on your first day back to run around telling the coaches who else was transgressing.
My bet is you don't last long at all - as your tone throughout this thread seems to be wanting to stir up an argument one way or the other ...

For someone whose time is too important to worry about internet forums, you sure do like to try and micro-mod this one. By all means, feel free to report inappropriate posts just like anyone else can.

Nope, I don't guess it is - and I'm not a mod anyway.
I'm just saying if you just got back from a ban, you might not want to jump straight in with a thread that says 'Hey most of you are kiss-asses and the mods are unfair' which is the pretty obvious undertone of this one, much as you'll deny that in just a sec here. Kinda like Plaxico Burress arriving back at training camp (if he hadnt already been booted for good) and showing off his new handguns in the locker room ...

You cant pass judgment on someone else if you havent read the rules nor care about them. Talking about cocaine and him posting a picture of himself actually snorting are TWO VERY different things.

I agree. I keep trying to think 'who cares' and not worry about any of it, and maybe if Pepe had come back with any sort of spirit of trying to be less offensive or of learning from past mistakes things would be different.
But this thread and others in the past have clearly shown an opposite attitude. The Plaxico coming back loaded down with handguns attitude.
What I mostly get from Pepe is frequent degrading talk about women, being proud of driving away one of the nicest guys we've had here on the forum, calling lots of us kiss-asses just because we're not anxious to make the mods' jobs a nightmare, and messing with mods as much as possible.

sexist comments? joking around about stuff is quite different than what you are painting the picture of me as. my joking comments can in no way be compared to racist comments, you don't even know what race i am, so don't try to draw a vague connection between the two :)
I agree. I keep trying to think 'who cares' and not worry about any of it, and maybe if Pepe had come back with any sort of spirit of trying to be less offensive or of learning from past mistakes things would be different.

I don't think this means I'm 'getting way too serious about the internet' or whatever other bull**** phrases get thrown out whenever his stuff gets called. I just don't like having to try (and fail) to ignore his nonsense on here more and more often ...
lets revisit the part i underlined and bolded.
1. frequent degrading talk about women? Really? sure i have made jokes in the past, but i doubt one could classify that as "frequent".
2. being proud of driving away one of the nicest guys we've had here on the forum. well if you go back to that thread of self implosion by hayes and actually read it, you will notice that i was far from the only person calling his BS. he drove himself away, you can't put that on me, he made himself out to look like a fool and still apparently has his tail between his legs for that.
3. calling lots of you kiss-asses? again, REALLY? who is lots? i made one statement earlier in this thread
i will never turn into an ass kiss, in real life or on an internet forum.
so please quote where i called lots of you kiss asses. oh thats right, you can't.
4. making the mod's jobs a nightmare and messing with them as much as possible. that really isn't true either. do i tell them what i think? absolutely. i've told psy several times that i respect him for what he does on here, and if they tell me to shut it, i do. i do a lot around the board, help people, report posts, link people to threads where their question has already been asked and answered, and also to the appropriate section. i'm certainly not anti mod, but i also don't sit back and blanket them with compliments simply because the feeling of content brings complacency, and a complacent board can become a ****ty board.
so overall patrick, you really have no clue as to what the hell you are talking about. rather than chime in with your misconstrued opinions disguised as factual information, it would save everyone on here a lot of time if you would either lock it up, or actually attempt to put together a valid argument and not look like such a push over.
It's usually very insecure people who keep up the 'I don't give a crap' attitude, especially on the internet, and they usually end up hurting themselves in the end. Like the playground bully--he usually has some real issues at home that cause him to act they way he does. It's like a candle. If you let a candle burn, it'll just go out on it's own eventually.
you got me. i have issues beyond helping and i come on this board, help people out, and post in a manner that isn't in accordance with everyone else on here. dang i might as well just leave now :)

so is sarcasm still cool or is it against the rules??
i'm not trying to get banned here, i'm just trying to obey the rules and post how i normally would (within reason). if the mods don't want me posting something just let me know, but enforce it fair, equally, and consistent. i'm a very reasonable person, if someone has a problem with me, pm me and i'll be happy to discuss any issue you have with me.

I like all the nice stuff you do around here. Unfortunately, it doesn't make up for the other things you do. And cut it with the semantics, everyone knows the game we're playing here. So just kill the character and join the group now or you will be banned, simple as that.

Seriously Pepe, you have to admit that you must be taking it a bit far when you even get kicked from IRC chat multiple times, most recently by someone that isn't a mod. I'm not a bettin' man but in these hard times I'd get in on a pool picking the date you get whacked again. I'd prefer to see you continue to help the newbies (which you do well; I don't have the patience) and tone down the extraneous stuff, but sorry, I'm not betting on ya.

i wouldn't bet on me either if i get banned for following the rules (but not the pepe hidden rules) lol. also, what times are these that you speak of that i got kicked from the IRC chat multiple times? there was that one night where psy kicked me like 3 or 4 times in a row after telling me there was no moderation, but thats it. when was this time of "getting kicked by someone who wasn't a mod" that you speak of?

sexist comments? joking around about stuff is quite different than what you are painting the picture of me as. my joking comments can in no way be compared to racist comments, you don't even know what race i am, so don't try to draw a vague connection between the two :)
why do i need to know what race you are? every race has the ability to be racist.
allow me to draw a clear connection between racism and sexism:
racist: prejudice or discrimination directed against someone of a different race
sexist: prejudice or discrimination on the basis of sex.
see the parallels?

really?
prejudice: an unfavorable opinion or feeling formed beforehand or without knowledge, thought, or reason.
discrimination: treatment or consideration of, or making a distinction in favor of or against, a person or thing based on the group, class, or category to which that person or thing belongs rather than on individual merit
please show me where i have exercised prejudice or discrimination against any women on the forum. don't paint a picture you can't back up.

hey, you painted the picture...i just read the title out loud.
here's your masterpiece:
"for some reason when i go out with the mindset "pick up girls and treat em like $hit" they all just flock. stupid *****es........"
i call it "discriminating and degrading".
you can pick apart your convenient definition, argue the point until i'm bored, and claim your VICTORY.
truth is, i don't think you're sexist. i think you've adopted a sexist persona and continue to permeate this space with your nonsense. as i've said, i wont miss you when you're gone.

you didn't answer my question, i'll quote it for you so you can have another go at it.
please show me where i have exercised prejudice or discrimination against any women on the forum. don't paint a picture you can't back up.
talking and joking about events from real life is one thing, however i don't call out the women on here and discriminate against them simply because they are women. i think you have your emotions mixed with logical opinions.

lets revisit the part i underlined and bolded.
1. frequent degrading talk about women? Really? sure i have made jokes in the past, but i doubt one could classify that as "frequent".
Gimme a break. Your trademark on here - the one thing 100 out of 100 people would identify about you straight away, is that you talk about women in a horrible, sexist, degrading way. At least in the past you've had the balls to own up on this. Now you've made 'jokes' - that's bull**** and you know it. As for frequent - how about 100% of the time - does that qualify as frequent? I don't believe you have ever referenced women in a grown-up, non-horrible way.
2. being proud of driving away one of the nicest guys we've had here on the forum. well if you go back to that thread of self implosion by hayes and actually read it, you will notice that i was far from the only person calling his BS. he drove himself away, you can't put that on me, he made himself out to look like a fool and still apparently has his tail between his legs for that.
As far as I know, the guy himself has said he wants no part of EIC right now because of you. And I really don't care why or what your argument was. What I know is that he's a good guy, and you are ... not.
[/quote]3. calling lots of you kiss-asses? again, REALLY? who is lots? i made one statement earlier in this thread [/quote]
I've said before, the clear undertone in this thread and others is that you feel many of us are kiss-asses if we don't consistently act as rude and out of order as you do. I predicted above in this thread that you'd deny that and you have now. Because that's part of your style too. Come on strong and offensive guns blazing, then run away a little each time you get called on it. And that's supposed to make you clever in some way. For me, it just means you don't even stand by your misguided convictions.
so overall patrick, you really have no clue as to what the hell you are talking about. rather than chime in with your misconstrued opinions disguised as factual information, it would save everyone on here a lot of time if you would either lock it up, or actually attempt to put together a valid argument and not look like such a push over.
You've talked trash about women at every opportunity - now you're just joking and you're not sexist and blah blah blah - talk about disguised and not having the backbone to admit what you've said and what you think. My views haven't changed and I don't have to retreat from anything like you do.
Oh, and not giving the mods a hard time - what was your recent ban for again? Something to do with accusing mods of sexual acts with the site owner???? And I've got misconstrued facts huh.
Like hippo said above, the main rule you break is the 'not being an *******' rule. Keep on being yourself - this place will have no members before you know it ...

are you serious???? my ban was for this thread
http://www.everythingicafe.com/forum/iphone-modifications/is-there-a-free-iblacklist-type-program-45840.html
seriously that is funny, where did you hear that???
as far as your other comments, to each his own. we have discussed the matter privately in pm's and you seemed somewhat satisfied with our discussion (even if you didn't agree with my opinion and i can respect that). don't just jump on the bandwagon against me because 10 or so of the thousands of members on here are doing the same thing :)

You all need to let this crap go. Worry about getting cancer, worry about your kids when they're driving, worry about the democrats ruining our country. Quit squabbling over this trivial bullschtein (Johnny Dangerously).
Pepe, STFU and move on, go help someone with their iPhone problems, quit whining.

ok so i realize i'm not going to convince anyone of anything on here. so all i ask is that you guys tell me what it is that i have to do in order to stay. the mods clearly don't want to work with me, so maybe you guys can. i get the don't be an ******* part, i will absolutely do my best. but can i still use sarcasm as most of you do on a normal basis, or perhaps tell jokes and stories without being made an example out of? i'm not trying to get nit picky, but i need to know what it is that i can and cannot do because "don't be an *******" is quite broad and a joke or statement taken out of context can be interpreted as me being an *******. so i'm waving the white flag, just let me know what i have to do.
TarekElsakka
05-02-2009, 02:08 PM
Peper, I don't think sarcastic posts are against the rules. I've seen the thread that got you banned, and that wasn't sarcastic, that was kind of harsh. But anyway, this is not my place to talk, and man I don't think they are going to tell you exactly what to and what not to post. OJaskila got permanently banned because he used to flame and insult people like ALL the time, and it started off by him getting a few temporary bans once in a while but he never stopped doing what made moderators angry. So.. I don't know, I am just saying that you will keep getting "Don't be an ****" part and "Don't insult people".. so yeah, just talk to Dave on IRC or something, it's easier chatting. Good luck mate and sorry about this post.
