Go fuck yourself, asshole. If it weren't for OA, you'd still be climbing telephone polls for a living and leering into women's bedroom windows.
Quote from: Lonestar on November 22, 2006, 03:55:29 PMYou admitted you haven't been at OA long; so with that, please don't talk of power abuse when you don't have the slighest clue as to what you're talking about. K? Do I believe Saint Corn should have been unregistered? No, of course not, but his actions were certainly ban worthy and I'm not sure why he's so anxious to relive the life of the teenager who constantly challenges authority on a daily basis for shits and giggles. Moreover, speaking as a prior OA admin and one of the facilitators who built the current OA we're speaking of, sometimes a swift ban is the only recourse to whip the horde back into order. I've done it many a time, as have Hans, Teddman, DirtyMack and other admins. It's not "power abuse" when someone is content to push buttons 24/7; it's a break. You may not like it, but OA has never been about total and complete free reign. That's why there's a tug of war between the older and newer members. The older members regularly banned people who contributed pure garbage to the forum without so much of a protest, now however, it literally takes a UN resolution to even consider banning a person who has spammed the board. Lonestar, you're a moron. I've been nice to you ever since I found out you were terminal but you're JUST about to get on my bad side.

It's vaya/mogwaiEB btw...I can remember talking to you on OA.
Willco the ball is in your court now. Don't let the racists come in here and ruin shit, but at the same time allow some of the more moderate/sane people to come here. WILLCO POWER!
Yeah, mogwai asked me to change his nick to something else, so I just changed it to Something Else.... if he wants really something else, let us know now.
