Just when I thought you couldn't be more transparent and full of shit, you float these turds:
Thaz simpered:
Quote:Since when is "unlike you, I actually have full a brain", polite?
At that point I stopped reading, as I didn't feel like the discussion had anything to give. If the devs are anything like me, that discussion got lost on them as well.

Quote:In context and the way it was written ( it wasn't written how you quoted it ) it's not worth a ban... at best it's 1 point... and normally it would be a warning.
That's what I got once for something similar in a similar context. ( not in a thread about bug hunt though )

Person 1: <long txt> I have at least half a brain <more long txt>
Person 2: <long txt> Lucky for me I also have a full brain (your implied brain insult was breaking the COC by the way) <more long txt>
Neither person said "unlike you, I actually have a full brain". Now the half a brain comment came from a party that is still posting, in this thread in fact, while the other person has vanished. So at least the forum moderator(s) consider the half brain comment as being polite for the forums.
Nestroy wrote in response to Thaz:
Quote:If I recall correctly, it was Uur, who started this with something allong the lines of "...half a brain" in response of the OP. I do not know what Uur has ridden that day, because usually his postings are quite superior.
Then vyrnxr went this way to Thaz:
Quote:I must point out that that is not what was said. Context is also important.
I had initially written out the exact quotes... first what the established vet poster wrote, then what the new to the game poster replied with (as that context is important), but then realized that doing so would be a direct violation of the forum Community Guidelines point 11. So instead I'll copy-past that point in it's place:
Not that this discussion about what was said will last long. This whole thread is a violation of the forum's community guidelines (specifically number 12: Discussion of Disciplinary or Moderations Actions). I was going to say that at least we can represent the posters and what was said accurately rather than paraphrasing in a way that discredits and implies something that was not actually said... but alas, see point 11 above.
Instead I guess all I can do is suggest that we all step back and stay out of the cubes way... and if you are truly interested in what transpired, follow the instructions above regarding google and finding the off site archives of the original thread while it lasts (it's how I know the above misquote is indeed a misquote).
EDIT: looks like I got ninja'ed with the actual quotes that I was going to (but didn't) quote anyways.

Quote:I can admit I use quotation marks a bit loosely, I was paraphrasing based on memory, not quoting. I could like you said google for the exact quote, but it does not really interest me that much.
I love this quote, you lying sack of scum, "I was paraphrasing based on memory, not quoting" OH REALLY? is that why you used quotation marks? and then pretending that you didn't have access to the pages? really? well those of us here on the vault and I would guess the majority of Fanbois on the mobos know that you had access to the screenshots here.
Then after being slammed Thaz wrote:
Quote:I was not implying that the comments made was worth a ban. I was more saying that I found them at least passive aggressive, and besides the point.
No you didn't, you attempted to attribute Uurlock's comment to Crane_Mace and that comment was infractable. Then you ignored the real Crane_Mace response that said both of them had brains, and politely mentioned that Uurlocks comment was out of line.
You clumsy, lazy, Turbine serving cunt.
