You go girl, you know I love it when you come over all authoritative and bossy! I love it when you take charge like this. Ahem.....
The staff here are the best, its just a shame that they have to give up so much of their time dealing with shite, rather than being able to continue with all the excellent improvements that have taken place round here. You had your chance, Ou Be, your ban even got repealled and you continued to act like a complete arse. Game over. All your continued games got to prove is that the legendary Ou Be intellect we heard so much about can't learn a simple lesson.
You blew your shot and now you are not welcome here

And while I'm at no point saying that I haven't trolled a bunch, I'm also not razzing someone about breaking the rules while doing so myself, even though this may seem like it.
At any rate, I think that the message is clear from the staff here as to what's acceptable and what's not. Spam, flames, trolls, flippy-dippys, and fiddle-faddles in small healthy doses are not frowned upon. In fact, you will see a LOT of older members doing so amongst themselves. They take comfort in being able to do so without negative results because they have already made reputations that tell others that they aren't here for post count or spam, and any minute infraction is an exception rather than a rule. It's new members looking for approval (or whatever) that are career spammers from the get-go that are responsible for pushing good topics down, or changing the course of a good discussion into a poo-poo fest...

Exactly. As much as TINM and I joke about being so-called 'Forum Fascists', we are in no way acting that out. Some members might think so, but I do believe we are extremely lax on most issues. The problem just came to a head, and more than a few members got annoyed about the amount of superfluous posts that arose, not only with the addition of the point system, but with fanfics, and the bot. Some people don't know when to stop, and it must be dealt with accordingly.
Poo-poo fests are dirty...

Try the "Questions and Support" section
As far as your points being stolen, go get them back. Do you know who took them? *cough*
If you look around enough in the shop, you'll find out who it was...

So does this also apply to some of the rampant post whoring that the forum has been seeing as an apparent result of the RPG system? I find myself not reading most of the posts here anymore because they are all crap. I can understand this happening in Babbling Stooges as thats what its there for and hence no post count raise in that section, but the problem has spread well beyond just that forum.

What is a bot? Are there really programs masquerading as humans in these threads? If so I can sort of understand people not liking them, after all Smith was a bot of sorts. But then so was the oracle.

i think that there are some programs made to emulate human speech. although you can sometimes tell them apart because usually no one would put money or have the resources to create a realistic one to put on forums

I agree with you very much. That was very well said and I hate spamers, because they just take the fun out of a website.
