Responsible people build a case before coming forward.
Responsible people also will do whats best for the community even if it seems it might hurt a "team" mate. The irony is that doing the right thing in this case helps not just the community but also the team. In this case the only looser is the "looser" who started this whole mess...

it's "loser" What can the site really do though? Just curious is all... Disclaimer: again, do not read into that anymore than what it says...Not saying I or anyone else condones it, I am just curious... PS: this is stupid I have to put this crap just so people don't think I'm trying to step on their toes...

Working from a pocket pc sucks... But here we are back to the "its an internet forum, who gives a crap" conversation. I run 3 websites, contribute to another, and built our team forums. Feel free to spell check those. Im a bit more thorough when it actually matters. It doesn't here so Im not...
What can this site do? It builds relationships. It provides a community of like minded individuals, etc, etc. But let me ask you this. If you don't see any advantage to this forum, why are you here?
As far as reading into things, etc. Who have you been talking to? IMO the leadership has been more than patient with people that were intent on causing problems. If you're not a trouble maker, and prove that with CONSISTANT actions, then say what you want. If there are any questions then it will clear itself up.

My conversations on here have never been in question....the reason I put the disclaimers is painfully obvious as you completely misconstrued what I was trying to get across. I know what the forum is for lol duh! Calm down...this is what keeps this fire kindled...hostility on both sides of the fence...I'm tired of it so don't expect it from me. I'm talking about reading into things by taking what I say and put an aggressive tone on it... from "what can they do becasue I don't know the answer" to "what can they do..they have no say so over someone's life" My question was what can the site do to penalize the person...besides banning them. PS: spell check won't catch it, but grammar check would just messing with ya...

Goes back to what I said was the purpose of the forums. If you're the person that's ok with being banished from a community then great. Unfortunately most of us think log cabins hidden deep within the woods = uni-bomber crazy types. But on the other hand, at that point you already showed you don't give a crap about what others think.
That's looking at the offenders POV. For those still here, who care about being part of the NWA paintball community, weeding out bad apples promotes the purpose of the forums. You know, relationships, community & all those "duh" things. Leaving the bad apples hinders all those purposes.
PBN is a perfect example IMO. I go there ONLY to see whats for sale, because frankly there are to many bad apples to make that community anything I want to be part of.

I'm just asking cause I'm curious...that's all "But on the other hand, at that point you already showed you don't give a crap about what others think." ummmmm w t f are you talking about?

I have already answered your question. You remove them from the community. Most people, that matters. Humans are social creatures. They crave relationships. Thus the comment you didnt seem to understand. Go back and reread the posts if neccesary. The answer is in there.

Well, the reason he asked, was due to this post:
Clearly, through obvious implication we may assume that Ed intends to take this beyond the forum.
That is all.

Makes sense now. Cant speak to Eds intentions but it would seem you would have 4 options. 1. nothing, let it go 2. Punch someone in the face 3. seek legal actions if you can 4. call your cousin Vinny

Ed's a pacifier.. no pacifist! I don't think he would punch someone in the face.

Well you aren't making many friends around here by not caring. You and Ed? Aww, shucks. If you want things to transcend beyond that, you can post fliers around campus. By the way... Good job at completely missing the point. Something which seems all too frequent around here. For those of you too slow, I was implying that NOONE should care about ANY of this. Silly, I say.
