Im sure if a joke was sent through a PRIVATE MESSAGE, the user had no intentions of shaming the "authoritative" figure nor had the intention to harm the forums the "authoritative" figure was in charge of.
It is my belief that moderators are supposed to protect the forums, not themselves. Others may not share that belief, others believe that it was righteous for the Texan authorities to imprison (and thus ruin the life of) a 19 year old for what was supposedly a terrorist threat.
Now in a hypothetical situation where a user was banned for a private "insulting" message to a hypothetical moderator, it is no longer a use of the moderator's privileges to protect the forums but to benefit himself. HIMSELF. That's what the hypothetical moderator is doing: Using his admin-given privileges to benefit himself.
Now, would that user be still mad about the 3 day ban after months? Yes, because now he sees a hypothetical moderator exercising his admin-given privileges for his own benefit. Disgusting for the hypothetical user, I'm sure about that.
Hey guys, to stay on topic, I'm currently learning C + +, will it be easier to learn Java by then?
(Also good night!)
I agree, better to stay on topic. Its an internet forum, You getting worked up is just silly. Like the temp ban before was just a 'joke'. Cant believe you did not 'get' it?. Ah, Double meanings and the importance of clarity.
But you're still the better moderator. Can't say the same to other easily butt pained moderators... No one in particular.
'Cant say the same', Yes, Always best not to say anything that can get you banned. That includes saying something stupid/acting as a smart-ass and the like. Just throwing a random tip for all given this opportunity.
Welcome. Editor is fun albeit time consuming and somewhat difficult to the novice. There's more than enough tutorials and people here on the forums to help you along the way. Glhf.
Oh it was not meant like that and I dont mind OP's proposition. I just commented on what I think is a common rhetoric expressed by many mappers, aka 'Most of the top rated/played maps are thrash and dont count toward much, compared to my map' mindset. I mean, c'mon. Thats obviously not the case generally speaking.
Hello. I have been playing SC2 WoL and HotS both since their release date and I am interested in joining a team. I have more experience playing as Terran, but I learn quickly. Thanks.
Might want to try Team-Liquid. They are melee/ladder. Team forums here is meant for 'map making'.
Their aggressive advertising makes me hate it. Apart from that, its just plain stupid when you look at what target market they aim for(Men). It should be a children's program, and nothing more. Not to be seen on any internet boards or anything like that.

Its that hard to keep track of stuff?.
Curse does not really care too much about upgrading the site's functionality. So, while its a good suggestion, it wont happen.
