Guest Ikhnaton Posted May 24, 2000 Share Posted May 24, 2000 OK, I'm sick to here with all the crap that's been posted here. This is a STAR WARS forum, and a family forum. It is okay to have non-SW related discussions here so long as they are civil and not obscene. Actually, the non-SW discussions should go in The Cantina forum, but then again, there are a lot of good people there and I would hate to expose them to some of the rabble that is here. This nonsense has to stop. This forum is not your personal fantasy diary, nor is it a place to vent all your anger and frustrations. This is a place to have civil discussions about a game, or about SW, or about other acceptable topics. Starting now, if I see any kind of flaming or sexual topics or posts, or anyone trying to skirt the censor, that person will be disciplined as soon as I see it. That could mean anything from banning your name temporarily or permanently, to banning your IP temporarily or permanently. I've had enough. JK.net used to be a place where people came to discuss anything, and they were all civil to each other. Since the advent of the JPB forums, the atmosphere has declined greatly. The good people don't want to stay here anymore. I'm not going to sit back and watch this place go to the toilet. Before ANY of you start blaming anyone else for this decline, you better take a good hard look at yourself first and see what you can clean up. I'm sure all of you can work on something. Like I said: flaming, sexual content, and skirting the censor are offenses that will be dealt with by more than just a stern warning. I gave you guys chances, and so did Kurgan, who is a lot more patient than I am. He is fed up with this stuff too. You guys didn't even care when Aristotle himself came and posted warnings. You don't seem to have any respect for authority. I didn't want to have to resort to this stuff. I don't like being a babysitter. I hoped that you people could act like mature adults or young adults, but apparently, this is not so. So, I have to become your babysitter. You want to act like kids? You'll be treated like kids. Mmkay? This is in effect starting now. I will do whatever it takes to clean up this place. Heed my words, or suffer the consequences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Jedi Kanigget Posted May 24, 2000 Share Posted May 24, 2000 Glad to see that this forum might start to clear up now. DJ69 only had his name banned, not his IP. ------------------ Darth Wart's Strategy Guide in a friendly, easy to use form!(Sorry, that was bad.) http://JediPowerBattlesGuide.homestead.com/JPB.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Darth_Simpson Posted May 24, 2000 Share Posted May 24, 2000 Yeah, clear up this dump Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hand Solo Posted May 24, 2000 Share Posted May 24, 2000 If I remember correctly SW contained a certain theme about rebelling against authority. No? ------------------ Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side, kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jedi Kanigget Posted May 24, 2000 Share Posted May 24, 2000 Star Wars contained themes about rebelling against an evil, corrupt authority. The authorities here aren't evil, nor are they corrupt. I realize you probably meant it as a joke, but that comment could undermine what Ikhnaton said. ------------------ Darth Wart's Strategy Guide in a friendly, easy to use form!(Sorry, that was bad.) http://JediPowerBattlesGuide.homestead.com/JPB.html [This message has been edited by Jedi Kanigget (edited May 24, 2000).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Plo Koon Posted May 25, 2000 Share Posted May 25, 2000 <font color="yellow"> I agree too. I have been talking to the members that left in other forums. I will come back, and I am sure they will come back too if this place does get cleaned up. ------------------ You could no more evade my wrath, then you could your own shadow.

Guest Vader13 Posted May 25, 2000 Share Posted May 25, 2000 When you say "IP" what does that mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 84Elan Posted May 25, 2000 Share Posted May 25, 2000 The man speaks the truth. I am sorry it took so long for this to come about. I fear that it is already too late for this board but I give my full support to Ikhnaton. We shall watch your policing with great interest. ------------------ Remember...Your Focus Determins your Reality.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Kurgan Posted May 25, 2000 Share Posted May 25, 2000 Well when we "ban" somebody, all we really are doing is taking the member account and saying "this person cannot post notes" and to ban an IP means that nobody using that IP block can register, so once we ban somebody and ban their IP, they can't use that internet connection to come back on the forums with a new name. We can also ban somebody's ISP or email provider to prevent everyone using say, hotmail or something if we need to. We don't like to do things like this, because it can potentially hurt other folks besides the one we want to ban, but it all depends on the conditions.
