fleung22 1 Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 I thought the Red Bucket fiasco was all over but I realize that only the thread got re-opened.The OP, hblask, has in fact been banned.Closing the RB thread for (allegedly) "jokes" (as KDawg puts it) is one thing but banning an FCPer for the thread or a thread in complaint is totally different.FoxwoodsPro got more slack before his eventual banning. I find it hard to even justify a warning for anything hblask's done today much less a ban.Petitions are too hard...use the poll to show your support. If you don't it could be YOU who's next.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Do you guys honestly find this thread offensive? THIS ONE RIGHT HEREMessage from 'hblask'Subject: The Bucket BanNow we just have to get him to un-ban me. I originally started the thread expecting it to die unnoticed, and it took on a life of it's own. Other people were calling him a nazi, etc, and I get banned. I've got other ways to look into it, but I just though people should know I got banned for 1) showing a picture of a red bucket, 2) asking why a thread like that got closed, and 3) saying "no names, but somebody is cranky".

Canuckickstan 2 Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 OOps Misclick.. Meant to un-ban him. Good thing I'm not a circumcisor !! Link to post Share on other sites
No_Neck 0 Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 I think you should let him back. Especially the You Lose comment. I like Kdawg but that seems kind of childish. Link to post Share on other sites
runthemover 39 Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 which rule did he break?was he too funny or is calling someone "cranky pants" the new swear word around here?he just handled the problem very poorly. maybe he should have taken the correct channels to correct the 'wrongdoing' going around screaming you've been wronged is not the right way to act. send an email, send private messages.

fleung22 1 Posted January 5, 2007 Author Share Posted January 5, 2007 I think you should let him back. Especially the You Lose comment. I like Kdawg but that seems kind of childish.Plus the fact that KDawg did the banning while admittedly drunk.I'm sorry but if your job is to be a moderator then you should not be making banning and locking decisions while you are intoxicated at work.

FCP Bob 1,322 Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 I believe that hblask is able to post again.I will cut the nuts off the next person who randomly posts red buckets in posts where they don't belong and makes me waste time deleting them as I'm reading things in the forum.

KDawgCometh 2 Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 Plus the fact that KDawg did the banning while admittedly drunk.I'm sorry but if your job is to be a moderator then you should not be making banning and locking decisions while you are intoxicated at work.I make plenty of posts when drunk. I also have made numerous locks and bans when drunk. I am also prone to goofing around and people always go nuts when I do goof around. Seriously folks, you need to not take things so seriouslyYes he can post again, and yes it was a temp ban, big deal. I said that if anyone continued to troll after a post, I'd temp ban them, he did it, he got banned. THere is a massive difference between temp bans and full out bans.
