warning level Options

[*kryogenix*]

some nappy headed ho raised my warning level without explaining why. i don't know what i'm doing wrong.

This is very true. Just give a few minutes to absorb.

Wanted to add this really quick -

I realize that you may not be a racist. I think the problem is that you are quoting someone (repeatedly) with a phrase that was offensive enough (and considered racist enough) to get someone in the public eye fired. With that being said, I'm not at all surprised that people would interpret your remark as such.

I do agree that the manner in which you were warned could have been communicated more effectively.

Regarding your "krnxswat." threads - I really think you could have just posted that in the "Who You Miss from cB and Why" thread. That's why it seems pointless.

I'm willing to hear what you have to say and I honestly (to go back to an earlier response) do not think you're stupid. Repeating rules shouldn't be interpreted as such.

What would you like to see happen that could make this Feedback productive? I'm willing to listen.

It's not my problem people are oversensitive.

Fair point, but I doubt that's why I got warned (thought I wasn't pointed towards that thread when it was closed).

I want Hakuna Matata in here to apologize or to explain why she went ahead and warned me without giving a good reason first.

-That has NOTHING to do with the way the pose.. at all.

Someone else mentioned the people on myspace, I was just conveying my agreement.

Someone asked about Seon Ho, I said what I thought he was up to these days.

-Not a post, but spam nonetheless.

Entertaining the speculation about Seon Ho's new hairstyle.

-Again, nothing to do with the topic at hand. How is that a Romantic Cliche?

You ever watch the Disney Channel?

I don't think people had a problem with my post. My posts did not change the threads into huge spam fests. That poo thread is more pointless than my posts.

lol using the bandwagon argument. You can do better than that.

No, I'm not dropping it until I get an apology or a valid explanation.

I know it's not your problem, but the Controversy Rule exists for a reason. Sure, it's unfortunate that some people may get offended when no harm was intended, but we need to at least make an attempt at being somewhat considerate. The first time you said something, fine, you didn't know. But the second, third, fourth and so on, you did know. And by intentionally continuing to say something that you knew would upset people, you are not only breaking the Controversy Rule, you're breaking the Personal Attacks Rule.

Fair point, but I doubt that's why I got warned (thought I wasn't pointed towards that thread when it was closed).

Actually it is. However, you are right. I did not reference the link the first time. I did, however, link it the second time I closed the thread.

PS - I'm sorry to keep linking rules. As a disclaimer, I'm not insulting your intelligence, it's just easier for me to organize my thoughts in posts that way.

Very few people had a problem with it. Show me in the topics where pages and pages of people were complaining like they do in other topics that are closed due to controversy.

Go look in debate, people said much more offensive things back when I posted there and no one was warned, but then again, that's when we had a competent moderating team and a great community back then.

So it shouldn't have been held against me, since I didn't make another krnxswat thread after the fact.

I'm still offended and I demand you stop telling me what the rules are. I don't want you to start controversy ya know.
