Hiptaru's topic nuked (again)Follow

Just fyi, as to not cause confusion, Hip's topic has been nuked by an admin, so it wont show up to y'alls.

BTW It won't let you post there :/

I'm not taking either side, but quite frankly, I'd like to hear the admin's take on the situation. Simply changing the font color to [a still readable] shade of gray and rating it down to negatives isn't going to get the things to stop. I think this topic itself makes that apparent.

Why does the topic offend people? Because it's not fair to the people who didn't post in it because their karma doesn't get a boost? That's their own problem for not posting in the thread. Is it because it makes a mockery of the karma system? It abuses it? Then maybe the karma system needs some adjusting. Or simply taken away. Is it against your ToS? Make that point. It may not be the admin's responsibility to make sure all new users have read and understand the ToS, but if you truly want them to adhere to it, you're going to have to give an explanation for taking action for a violation of the ToS.

I personally don't see why the topic needs to be closed, hidden, rated down to an absurdly low negative and then have the font color in the original post changed. Especially since it's a very nice change of pace from most of the other topics around here (that manage to stay open, by the way). Looking at the linked thread, it was someone named Railus. I would very much like to hear your take on this situation. Why not explain to the people in this forum why you don't want this kind of topic? Because otherwise, you are going to have to come back into our forum many, many times to close even more.

ANOTHER PARALYZER!

Here's a thought...

Lighten up, you ridiculous fools. Apparently if fun wailed on your head with a giant anvil, you wouldn't notice. It was something new to have a little fun.

And to those who say it isnt fun? If you don't like it, then don't read it. That's the beauty of free will. You can make your own decisions.

Hey folks I'm no Hiptaru hater anymore, we had our time, it's over...I just don't see why every time he posts like 5 or 6 of his little Linkshell minions have to crawl out of the woodwork and toss their two cents in is all. You guys defending him would actually work alot better if you took the fact your are in his LS out of your sig. Kinda like someone's Mom defending their kid...doesn't hold alot of weight.

Well I would consider standing up for a friend to be a good thing. I would also not equate that to a mother-child relationship.

I wonder if someone in your LS had something bad said about him, would you stand up and say something?

Maybe I'm wrong on this one, but if someone starts saying negative comments about someone I know and am friends with, then I'm gonna jump in. Just the same as you defending someone you are friends with.

Or maybe your LS mates aren't considered friends, who knows...

c is for cookie, thats good enough for me...

*sing along you know you want too*

There are similar threads in other server forums that are at, for example, page 24... I think Titan Server.

Its a little rediculous that this particular one was closed, while other's are allowed to go on.

everybody chill.. lol

i had my fun.. and yeah... i had my fun in vegas, and made alot of very close friends, we smoked doobies, and drank the night away... Thats what i am talking about, and FFXI brought us all together..

Yeah, i like to look back and look at all the stupid stuff that has happened on this server that has made me know for who i am, and how many people i pissed off on the way, and how many friends i made as well..

Karma Schmarma, if i feel like it, i will go ahead and abuse the karma system again, but for now.. bleh..

I love all of you bismarck.. even the ones who still hate on the Hiptaru.. Thru all of the ridicule and all of the hatred i have somehow seemed to come out on top of it all, and that makes me smile..

so go smoke a doobie bismarck..

peace out..
