Which... isn't this thread.this started with someone reporting the naruto thread as a "troll thread"
BigSmoke, again, I strongly suggest that you follow the advice that you copy-pasted, and that we all stop arguing pointlessly here.Well, given that BigSmoke seems to have agreed to try to improve his behaviour, and the issue here is lack of common sense, not malicious intent, I think that we should leave him alone for the time being.
If he causes problems in the future, we can ban him for around a month or so, but it depends on the severity.
That is correct, yes.they reported it on this thread
i will stop arguing if the others are willing to stop as well.BigSmoke, again, I strongly suggest that you follow the advice that you copy-pasted, and that we all stop arguing pointlessly here.
ban for what. he broke no rulesI don't see the point of giving him a final chance. He literally admitted, earlier on this very thread, thst ge has no respect for the rules. Why are we wasting our time? Just ban him and get it over with.
^This. The concept of a "last chance" losses all meaning when we happily hand out fifty of the ******* things a year to the same guy.My position stands the same as the last time I was firmly pushed and yelled at for pushing for a permanent ban, with the same people arguing "Just give him one more chance!"
He got that chance, and plenty more. When will the final chance be the final one?
Well, he did at least acknowledge his behavior this time, and promised to follow the instructions we gave him, so fingers crossed!This whole situation is far too familiar to the one I mentioned earlier, and if a guy literally saying he won't change is anything to go by, I don't understand where people will actually see this go other then worse
Literally everyone will do that if threatened with a permanent ban. It doesn't actually mean anything.Well, he did at least acknowledge his behavior this time, and promised to follow the instructions we gave him, so fingers crossed!
I thought a decision has already been reached when he received a warning.We're literally going back and forth at this point, can the staff finally decide if he should get the banhammer or not?
Exactly, this is getting dragged out at this point. Let's just drop this, since we already reached a suitable conclusion I feel.It's been discussed for over 100 posts, it has been made perfectly clear that Smoke is on thin ice and next time its the ban hammer, can we pahlease drop this? A decision has been made to give a final warning to him, and I agree with Ant's opinion on the matter
Was this not enough of a discussion ender?I'm gonna come in and attempt to be the period to this long discussion, hopefully finishing it without any more controversy.
BigSmoke has gotten on the nerves of many, the overwhelming amount of responses here proves that. However, considering the defense of many others, including Ant, I believe that he should be allowed one last, final chance. As long as he remembers to follow the guidelines he has been given, and attempts not to be controversial in the future, then he will be allowed to stay. That being said, it should be noted, BigSmoke, that you are on extremely thin ice right now. Please keep that in mind from here on out, okay? I mean it. One more slip-up, and not even Ant can save you.
No, the same thing will not happen. At all. Because we have given BigSmoke a strict guideline to follow with a severe ultimatum in place should he choose to ignore the instructions, and he should know he is on very thin ice with everyone now. He has been warned, and if he's smart, he will follow it. Otherwise we ban him.No. Because next time this gets brought up, and it will get brought up here again, we'll have the exact same discussion. It happens every time. Nothing changes and he literally said he doesn't care. Just ban him already.
That is correct, yes.No, the same thing will not happen. At all. Because we have given BigSmoke a strict guideline to follow with a severe ultimatum in place should he choose to ignore the instructions, and he should know he is on very thin ice with everyone now. He has been warned, and if he's smart, he will follow it. Otherwise we ban him.
So please, like the others have said, drop it. He may have been given chances before, but it is clear now that this will be his very final chance, without any question.
Edit: Of course, you happen to pop in right as I posted this huge thing and drop it. Either way, my message stands.
Speaking personally, it's because I view this thread as giving people "absolute last chances" over and over again despite nothing changing. I remember how many "last chances" ended up not being that at all. Smoke is just the latest example.Well, I do understand why people find BigSmoke obnoxious, but not why he would incite such extreme dislike from other staff members. Perhaps I am uninformed about something?
can you ******* readBut he is unwilling and by his own accord, unable to improve his annoying behaviour
i wouldn't really be the most reliable source for identifying that. i hardly even know what the definition of respect is. i just have a vague idea of it. also, as i said before, it doesn't matter as long as it doesn't affect my actions here.and has no respect for this place, just like he stated.
i wouldn't despise you if it wasn't for this kinda shitWhy have someone like this who is can't change and straight up despises us here?
the fact that i need them in the first place is pretty laughable. my """crimes""" aren't nearly as atrocious as you seem to believe they are. once again, i don't even know what i did to warrant this. like, you could just tell me "you're being annoying", you don't need to go to a report thread to deal with it. especially when you could very easily avoid associating with me.The concept of a "last chance" losses all meaning when we happily hand out fifty of the ******* things a year to the same guy.
i dunno, maybe those instructions will work.This whole situation is far too familiar to the one I mentioned earlier, and if a guy literally saying he won't change is anything to go by, I don't understand where people will actually see this go other then worse
hmmmmm. maybe if you didn't go straight for a permaban, you would've been able to negate the possibility of me making empty promises. or maybe you don't even want to do that, because it feels like you just want me banned by any means possible.Literally everyone will do that if threatened with a permanent ban. It doesn't actually mean anything.
when did i even say that?Nothing changes and he literally said he doesn't care.
Agreed.Alright guys we should cool down, angry is unhealthy.
And Smoke, it is enough, you should stop reply and respect the other, be consideration, you already annoying too many people
Ant you ******* banned Potato for less, why you’re so hellbent over thisThe problem is that he has not actually done anything particularly bad. He mainly seems to have a case of very bad common sense, so I would prefer if we give him a chance to try to follow the instructions that we gave him.
