Flood control: You may post in 31489766 seconds

What the f**k is that? Not only am I on preview, but you pull this shit on me?

Either you quit playing this shit and we talk this over, or I pull my own bullshit and let 100 accounts talk for me.

Your call.

[tokyo-rose]

Members are subjected to flood control; OMs are not. You are currently a member.

[KryMeARiver]

You are currently an awful mod.

No f**king shit. Tell me why it says I need to wait over 3 million seconds between posts instead of 15. Nevermind the fact that I've been warned over the stupidest thing ever and that I SHOULD still be an official member.

Why are you so retarded?

[libertie]

Kryo, I'm sorry you think you were warned for a stupid reason, but to be fair I sent you a PM the first time asking you to stop. The second time I raised your warning level. The third time I raised your warning level to 20% (making you no longer eligible for OM status) and put you on mod preview to ensure that it wouldn't happen again. Do you really think it's that stupid?

[mipadi]

I just thought it'd be cool to point out that 31489766 seconds == 524,829.433333333 minutes == 8,747.15722222222 hours == 364.464884259259 == 1 year. Classy.

Also, just out of curiosity, what was kryo warned for? Normally I'd ask in private, but I have a feeling kryo wouldn't mind the reason being outed publicly anyway.

[KryMeARiver]

No, that is beyond stupid.

Oh noes, I was disrupting the forums so much. Every time I posted, it was relevant to the topic at hand. I didn't even respond to your PMs seriously because they didn't warrant a serious response.

Now you incompetent f**ks ignore me for hours on end, only to approve my post 3 times. Yet you still miss the point. Good job.

[libertie]

I'm going to be absent because I'm going to be IN JAIL 4 KILLING DA MOTHA FUKER THAT KILLED YOU!! STANDING TALL FOR EACH OTHER IS THE ONLY WAY WE TRUE PIMPS KNOW !!!

It wouldn't have been so bad but it was everywhere. As I said, I sent him a PM first, then warned him when he continued, then warned him again when again, he continued.

[mipadi]

I don't want to inject myself into an argument that's none of my business, and both of you are two of my all-time favorite CBers , but how is that any worse than most of the crap/spam that goes on on CB? I mean, yeah, I know kryo was probably definitely insubordinate (and I mean that in the nicest way possible ), but is it really worse than the rest of the antics here?

[libertie]

Absolutely not, and I think most people know that I have a pretty high tolerance level for spam (or maybe it just doesn't bother me, like at all). If it hadn't been so MUCH I probably would've overlooked it and left it at my first PM which was something like "uh, stop lol xD".

[Simba]

I still think they were legit posts, he did give a slightly different reply to each topic. I mean what if he just stuck that in his signature instead.

[mipadi]

Understandable. I guess I just see it as a case of "singling out". I mean, I venture around CB, and see the majority of posts are designed exclusively to stroke the ego of the poster (I'm sure you know which ones I mean, I don't need to point them out), or to personally insult another poster, or to make a lame joke at another's expense... Well, the list goes on and on, yet I don't see warnings being handed out to those users. Not that I think we need more warnings, I just mean that it doesn't seem...I dunno, right to be so selective.

Again, I hesitate to give my $0.02 because I don't want to undermine any staff members' modding, but I thought this point was relevant enough to be posted.

lol there is so much of that

[The-March-Hare]

^ That's DEFINITELY true.

I kind of can see Michael's point about singling out, but I have to say that with the best will in the world, some posts DO stand out more than others.

[Simba]

some posts DO stand out more than others.

like mine





JUST HOW CAN YOU IGNORE THAT KID?

this is fact.

mipadi is my one of my favorite cbers now.

[KryMeARiver]

some posts DO stand out more than others.

just like how white people and black people both commit crime, but black people stand out more right?

[sixfive]

you have a gay taste in members

[Tung]

i was feeling gay at the time of the post.

[The-March-Hare]

just like how white people and black people both commit crime, but black people stand out more right?

Not really. More like how some crime scenes stand out because there is blood splashed all over the walls.

[KryMeARiver]

Not really. More like how some crime scenes stand out because there is blood splashed all over the walls.

The blood wasn't there because of a crime, dummy. I cut myself shaving.

[The-March-Hare]

^Presumably then, you were still at the scene? And will thus have your actions questioned appropriately by the authorities.

[superstitious]

mipadi is my one of my favorite cbers now.

He is a fan favorite. xD

I can understand why it seems like he's being singled out, but he isn't the only person getting warned for spamming and such. He's just one of few who makes threads about it. I'm not disrespecting this thread by saying that, just making an observation.

[KryMeARiver]

You guys are still missing the point. What the f**k at having flood control for

You guys are still missing the point. What the f**k @ having 1 year of flood control.

What the hell is that shit? f**k you.

Reason for edit: merged and made visible

[karmakiller]

Regular members have flood control and they aren't complaining. I don't think this is a case of singling out. There are plenty of people that get warned, trust me. The reason they don't stick out so much is because they don't make topics about it. I'm saying to not make a topic, because everyone is entitled to that.

[libertie]

Again, I hesitate to give my $0.02 because I don't want to undermine any staff members' modding

Not at all! You have nothing but the best of intentions, and I never doubt that. I don't feel undermined in any way, and I welcome people to question something if they feel like I've done something that needs an explanation.

As for what happened with Kryo, his punishment was extremely mild and won't last long - business as usual. What he kept posting around the forums was amusing at first but if you read through his posts you'll see that he took it a bit far and that's the only reason I chose to do anything about it. Also if you'll notice, the first time I just gave him a kind request to stop rather than outright warning him, simply because I didn't feel like it was a big enough deal to actually punish him for it, as long as he'd just stop doing it. It became a bigger deal when he continued to do it after I asked him to stop. I have a feeling that Kryo understands where I'm coming from, at least I'm hoping he does. If not, I would also hope he understands that he is always encouraged to talk to me personally about it.

Also, the flood control shouldn't be that long for anyone.

[superstitious]

I'm looking at the member group settings and for the "Member Group", it shows this.

[KryMeARiver]

No I don't understand at all. I did nothing wrong. My posts had more content of value than the majority of posts made at the same time combined. I didn't even respond seriously to your PMs because it was such a bullshit request.

And quit this mod preview shit or I'll make some more accounts. It's a pain in the ass trying to talk to you this way.

You are incredibly stupid.

Thankfully the code on this site is so shitty and exploitable.

[KryMeARiver]

quit ignoring me you f**ks

[Elba]

What were you posting that they thought was so bad?

Dani already quoted it, but:

Notice how it was completely relevant to the topic you took it from.

Dude, that happened to me once, too, but it was more like 1,000,000,000 seconds.

:(

[KryMeARiver]

lol I was wrong, 31 MILLION not 3 million. 10 years baby.

[KryMeARiver]

Anyway, I'm confused as to what the actual point of this topic is; I originally thought you only wanted an answer as to why you were hit with flood control for such a long period of time, but the screenshot Rebecca's post (to which you responded, "What the f**k is your point?") pretty much shows that they (staff) didn't impose that upon you. However, that's not good enough so since you want it spelled out for you, chalk up the ridiculous flood control to a site error; after all, you yourself admitted that

No, you illiterate turd swine. The reason I'm able to post is because the site does a terrible job of preventing people who they don't want posting from posting. Ask the mod staff circa last year.

Have the admins tried to fix the problem? Nope. They seem to be fine with a 1 year flood control, which is effectively a 1 year ban.

Anyway, as for why you were actually warned or if you were singled out--again, I did not think this was the original point of the thread, as after both Dani and Rebecca addressed those two issues, you went and started yelling that "You guys are still missing the point." All three admins replied--two out of the three addressed that the flood control should not have been as long as it was stated in the error message; all three explained that you were not singled out.

OK then how about fixing it? All I'm getting is pretty much "LOL SUX 4 U!" Where is the solution?

LOL they say I'm not singled out. Sure, I believe them! What a piece of shit.

So what if you didn't "respond seriously to [Dani's] PMs because it was such a bullshit request"? The point was that a staff member deemed your repeated posting of such a chain letter to be spammish; you had your fun, and after a couple times, you were asked on multiple occasions to stop. I hardly think that constitutes as unfair. Even though you changed the lead-in of your post each time to fit the situation, we all know that you're intelligent enough to understand that a) it was generally irrelevant to the topic at hand and b) you were asked to stop.

Maybe because the point is that the staff member is wrong?

How about you stop breathing? ZOMG I asked you to stop, WHY AREN'T U STOPPING?!?!?!

I'm not going to stop when I'm doing nothing wrong.

You're trying to slide by on technicalities, and everyone clearly knows that you're just trying to be difficult. You bitch that staff is ignoring you; why should they bother when their words fall upon deaf ears? I'm surprised that they haven't just pulled what they did on Seon Ho and are putting up with you instead.[/font]

And everyone knows you're sucking up so that you can be on staff again with ur BFF Jill.

I'm following the rules. If I wanted to be difficult I'd make several accounts, evade their pitiful bans, and spam the boards with the gun with several hundred accounts. I'M TRYING TO WORK WITH THESE PEOPLE. But they keep trying to make it difficult.

[Tung]

damn you type alot

[libertie]

Kryo, I'm sorry but you are most certainly not making any attempts to work with us. =\ Your idea of working with us appears to be us giving you what you want every time.

I had no idea what you even meant by flood control until you posted that screenshot. Now that I actually know what you're talking about, I can only say that it's a Jusun issue and hey, I bet it'll go away once you're off mod preview because it's possible there's some sort of a link with mod preview and posting/editing things on the non-IPB part of the site.

If you want to argue that your punishment was unfair that's fine, let's do that, but I don't see the point in arguing that we're trying to keep you from posting altogether or that we want to get rid of you.

[Simba]

Kryo, I'm sorry but you are most certainly not making any attempts to work with us. =\

BUH I AM

[Tung]

hey stop sucking up! >:0

[Simba]

hey stop sucking up! >:0

u got it

[Joss-eh-lime]

did you really have to wait that many seconds?

[libertie]

I'm pretty sure it just chose an excessively large number since "indefinite" might not be an option as it is with mod preview.

[Elba]

Dani already quoted it, but:

...numerous times.

I don't need your attitude.

[missnh]

I guess some people always wanna be a part of CB staff. Pathetic. *points and laughs*


Here, Kryo, have an e-cookie.

[Elba]

OMG CHOCOLATE CHIP, MY FAVORITE. GIMMEEEEEEE

[KryMeARiver]

what the f**k you clueless shits

HOW ABOUT TRYING TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM INSTEAD OF DENYING THAT A PROBLEM EXISTS AND SAYING YOU'RE DOING YOUR BEST?

man f**k you guys, I'm done trying to argue with you, I'll let other people do the talking for me. peace

[KryMeARiver]

[font="times"]Um.. I don't follow how this is relevant as a response to what's been quoted, but sure, we'll roll with it. To my knowledge, it seems like they don't know how to fix the problem. /shrug

MODS + FIX THIS BULLSHIT = HAPPY KRYO

easy enough for you to understand?

You're asking the wrong person; of course, count on you not to outright say this until it's been spelled out that the year long flood control period is not staff's doing.

Yet they don't give a shit and act like it's my fault.

Not exactly an apt metaphor, as breathing isn't so much a voluntary action as is being a bother, but fine. To each their own.

Shoot yourself in the head.

The first assumption is laughable, as I've been back for an entire day, zomg. God forbid I should enjoy interacting with members I like on a forum or try to help out others in an attempt to try to get back into web-related things!

Sorry, I couldn't understand you. Didn't your mother ever teach you that you shouldn't talk with your mouth full of MOD COCK

[KryMeARiver]

you all suck so much
