then why not continue to let him be that way is the concept I'm expressing.
Because it would be embarrassing to the community. And certain things (like treating human beings with basic respect), should take priority over "usefullness".
Contextual note : i just got permed for being "me" on tl for the 4th time: (message: You have been banned by Plexa. Reason: Please stop making accounts.)
3 years ago i arrived from tl .. pissed off like a bat out of hell wanting to get justice / revenge and stomp someone.. anyone
that got me plenty of labels .. such is life, unfair and brutal, the more you give the more they take...
wisp is (can be.. depending on the point of view) a dork, a tool, a red neck, stupid, racist, bigot ... (i could go on..) .. be that as it may (those words apply-able to wisp ... true or false i care not) .. moderation can do better than banning.. can it not?
this extra time taken by moderators or admins is (seems) lost for taking time on top of other things, having to "deal" with people who "go too far", ..
but it only seems.. it is not lost, this time is essential
(believe me i find wisp uninteresting per say, and like most posts on the internet.. mine is only meant as self serving)
IT IS PURE LAZINESS on anyone's part to not try to raise the bar, to not go the extra mile.. reforming wisp is something to aspire to.. not something to be mocked or ridiculed
in closing i just wanted to add a huge and gravel filled f_ck you to all who "proudly" declare that "this is the internet lol and it is "lost" .." if you can't stomach this or that then you are a this or that ..and should know better"
again f_ck you!!! all you people are the reason the internet is as it is.. you lazy f_cken bunch of pansies who can't stomach the work to be done
tldr: perms are for old ladies, mapster should never be tl...
The goal of mapsters is the promotion map making not human rights, a degree of respect is needed to promote map making. I respect your opinion that the focus should be respect over usefulness but i disagree. Plus i'm pretty much just spamming now anyways since Mozared has said that if he applied my opinion he would still be banned, since he is worried its causes people to not join/be-active.
He said that his "newest account has been here the past few days", so what's the issue? Wisp has all the means to try and be a productive member of community while not getting on mods radar by adhering common sense and basic form of respect. If someone wants to clear his name and start anew he should show it through effort, so that he has something to back up his apology with.
Or is this a discussion about how one can be a tasteless jerk, poisoning the image and quality of forum by his repulsive behavior and be fine cause he knows bunch of stuff and that apparently makes his account irreplaceable? (not aimed specifically at Tainted)
i am baskerville (name comes from "william of baskerville" from umberto eco's classic masterpiece book/movie "the name of the rose" ; and yes i do revere sherlock too, but less).
i "popped my gaming forum cherry "when i first posted 3 years ago on team liquid (grave mistake since i lost said respected / beloved id forever?).
i got kicked out of tl because i knew nothing of "how to post on internet games forums".. admittedly, however it certainly did not help that i didn't bow to condescending teenagers (posters or mods alike). To this day i remain flabbergasted that someone "banned" me .. i am very lovable and helpful, the fact that i stick to my old seasoned and reasoned guns and don't take s hit from anyone is a good thing ...
i came from "work" forum use .. and there no one flames anyone.. furthermore, no one plays "posting" games (practical example: some posters on tl or indeed here, play at "who will get the new guy/gal banned first"...)
i turned 35 and got kicked out of the "mainstream" sc2 mapmaking site after less than a week (i posted a melee map a day and was given 30 days ban.. ill let you be the judge of how that could go / shape my further posting on tl or indeed anywhere on gaming forums)
all of this experience would be severely funny if it wasn't sad...
(less funny, more to the point: i defy anyone to provide anything ban worthy that i posted "anywhere" (even in pms i sent tl mods, when i was really upset about the ban i got, ...only for standing my ground))
^ hence the hound's appearance (i made sc2mapster account in 20 seconds flat, "baskerville" was not available, so "diagonal reasoning" made it so.., i never even thought of the implications :-) )
As a grown up, i got time to make maps again because i got kids and that makes you HAVE to spend time "stuck" .. i naively thought i could co exist with teenagers in these forums.. (come to think of it i must have been a dum bass for not overthinking it beforehand) ..
it appears i was dead wrong... kids posting on internet hate and envy adults .. so (like my avatar states) i am forever the alien in triggerhappyland..
ps: do enquire further if i didn't satisfy your request
pss: i do hope you are a cute 18+ year old hot grill (joke)
I am pretty sure that was his point, Antartica is so cold that no one actually fully lives there. There are Teams that study the place but they move out in the winter.

I don't think you guys understand how professional organizations work. The goal of EG is to succeed at e-sports. That doesn't mean they should tolerate douchebags (hence the Idra ban). It's the moderators' decision how they want to run this site and be perceived by the community. As for me, I don't want to be in a community of racist bigot mapmakers.

To be fair.... you are pretty bigoted yourself anytime anyone ever mentions a religious affiliation, I have seen you flame and attack people without any reason for the mere mention.

Then it should be easy to find evidence for your assertion. Good luck.

Shall I refer to the 30 pages (500 post) of insults between you and EW?.
All I am saying is keep it classy, if you don't like someone that's fine, but don't continuously insult them when as far as I can tell they haven't done anything to you.
He's not. :P

Good luck to whatever moderator chooses to undertake this task. Somehow I think Mozared & friends have better things to do.
i quote you sir or milady : "(like treating human beings with basic respect), should take priority over "usefullness"."
why doesn't that apply to tw? .. there is nothing else better to do .. ever .. than to save the world .. to show the way
I want to get to know you.
Honestly I can't even deal with him in the T Genesis chat, in fact I mostly left it because he's in it. The guy is straight up ignorant.
@Gradius12: Go

Sounds like a love affair hahaha. i bet u 2 would make a good game together.
I don't get it.

How do you block people on mapster?
yay, flamewars is always a nice fresh breath on SC2mapster.

As a native Antarctican I propose he stays banned due to the offensive nature of the first post of this thread!
Also, my grill is hotter!
@Mozared: Go @KaitoYami: Go
I can play that game too.
I agree with KaitoYami it's ridiculous do a post with apologies and insult antartica at the end of the post,let's keep that troll out of here!!
I am pretty sure that was his point, Antartica is so cold that no one actually fully lives there. There are Teams that study the place but they move out in the winter.
I use this for launch every sunday (Trollface)
I'm whatever you want me to be, baby.
"want" or "need"?
It does. He got the same amount of respect he showed others (a ban).

or at the very least, within the past 6 months.
