As much as the moderating staff values your opinions, most of them are ignored because they are immature, foolish, and ignorant. We are supposed to be kind and democratic, giving you the benefit of the doubt, but at the same time keeping hold of the rules. If you stray to far, you will be punished. That is the basis of most legal systems. I think sometimes we are too nice. Some people just deserve a kick in the arse, and you know what, most of us aren't afraid to do it, because we don't really feel the consequences of that action. But as leadership, we must take ethics into consideration, which means we can't just run around with a ban stick smashing skulls and taking out the low lifes on the forum. They exist, we know who they are, and so do you.

Most of the time we don't care what you think if you are one of the trouble makers and attention getter's. The staff has the power to make you disappear, and trust me dear friends, no one will miss you. Now if you want to make a difference, if you want to be remembered, change your attitudes and learn how to be a benefit to the community. And in the very least, it is better to be forgotten than to be remembered as a criminal.

that was deep...lol

all is true...even if you don't like the rules...have to follow them...I had to learn that the hard way...
