Have you noticed anyone missing from our EU Forum postings recently?

Rusty, our dear Rusty, has been told off, shut off from the forums and is currently sitting in the corner with a dunce cap on his head for misbehaving... He once again couldn't stop himself from speaking his mind (which most people round these parts do - that is after all what this place is for), but in this instance overstepped the boundary a bit.

We all know the CS rules, and are to abide by them of course. There are many shrewd, nasty comments and "name calling" that goes on here on the different forums, and not everything gets caught. In this instance one of our most admired and beloved posters made a mistake, and will be greatly missed. I would even go so far as to say that the loss of his postings from now on will have a more detramental effect on this community than the offence his mistake made (Although I do understand the sentiments of the person affected, and I fully understand that you need to keep a nice tone on these forums, but in this case it seems the punishment far outweighs the crime.)

What do you think?

A search shows that Rusty is presently On Line!





------ THIS THREAD IS LOCKED AND DOES NOT ALLOW REPLIES ------

Yes, but he can't post on the forums...







------ THIS THREAD IS LOCKED AND DOES NOT ALLOW REPLIES ------

AHHHH

I don't like seeing anyone banned for any reason. I have no idea what was said seeing as how it has been deleted. I'd much rather see all the posts remain intact, good or bad and let everyone see what was said.
Gives a more complete picture of what each individual is like in any given situation. Good or bad.
I don't like censorship in any form and this being an adult site I don't see a need for it.

There are always exceptions, like porn and illegal activity, but I don't think this is the case here.

well. name calling is not exactly what I call a nice attitude, it can be done jokingly in a way but when that is done, one has to know 89%for sure the other person is going to take it as a joke, or at least apologise in a private mail for the possible offence.

I apologied to Elley when I started a thread about his picture right after I started the thread because I realised then that I wasn't supposed to name people and that perhaps he wasn't going to welcome the attention, I didn't know him as well as I do now, and all things are relative anyway.

here, we only show what we feel like, depending, I suppose on how we feel that day, well, at least that's what I think.

Rusty has a great sense of humour, a bit weird at times, but there again, who isn't a bit strange at times?

I like weddy, I like many other people too, male and females who I have feelings for, not of love but of love of sorts, well, perhaps it's called a sense of friendship or camaraderie, or forums colleagues, I don't know.

I didn't like the comment on weddy, and I tried to difuse it somehow, Aha, the dragon again, helping people! blimey! I am a boat puller! what are those things called?






------ THIS THREAD IS LOCKED AND DOES NOT ALLOW REPLIES ------

Hi Nina!!
So are you saying he is now banned forever?

Coz I voted he should stay and behave.

Having said that, however, I wouldn't mind a break of a couple of days from his sometimes inappropriate behaviour......

Rusty, my CS friend, the way you address some of us lately feels too much like misdirected anger, misdirected resentment expressed through sarcasm and uncalled for, unwanted, demening, degrading and disrespectful sexual inuendo.

Sorry, but you should know by now that I will call a spade a spade.
Whatever it is, Rusty, get Over it!!!
You are too clever and entertaining for us to lose.....





------ THIS THREAD IS LOCKED AND DOES NOT ALLOW REPLIES ------

You're a tug boat?!

Well, that was very decent of you, to try and step in. And I agree, name-calling is not what we should be engaging here.
But usually I think we all manage to get our views across in a pretty harmless way, don't you think?







------ THIS THREAD IS LOCKED AND DOES NOT ALLOW REPLIES ------

I'll use you Breeze,

I'm better at detours than straight lines






------ THIS THREAD IS LOCKED AND DOES NOT ALLOW REPLIES ------

Hiya Breezee!

I have no idea how it works with the shutting-off of people...

And thanks for the frankness! See - it can be done in a "CS-acceptable way"!






------ THIS THREAD IS LOCKED AND DOES NOT ALLOW REPLIES ------

Don't know whatit was about, so can't really comment, had a better time buying cigarette's, and I don't smoke if he stays he stays..............if he goes he goes.............wat I don'tlike in the threads I'll ignore.....easy as that





------ THIS THREAD IS LOCKED AND DOES NOT ALLOW REPLIES ------

we usually manage to get our views accross pretty well without the use of direct fire:; what's the point anyway? aggro for the sake of aggro? how boring!

One thing I like about the english language and I admire from people who can use the language to its fullest is when the trick is performed, that's when one wants to cause harm by insluting someone without making it obvious it's an insult and the other party only finds out a week later he was insluted, that's what I call mastery in the language!

but too direct is just too... too... whatever... (I can't think of the word)





------ THIS THREAD IS LOCKED AND DOES NOT ALLOW REPLIES ------

I like Rusty, Nina!

......mostly because I remember him on the forums a little before he got so "weird".
I respect his intelligence, his humanity and his humour (when it is in good taste). And I believe you have to look at your experience of a person as a whole. This is not Hollywood, after all!! We are hopefully not judged totally by our regretable moments or our latest performance.......

Having said all that, however, I think it is probably best to avoid responding on a public forum to people you dislike or are experiencing tension with. There is such a thing as control and there are also social rules..... fact of life here...... you don't make an effort to obey them, you suffer consequences.

Sorry again.





------ THIS THREAD IS LOCKED AND DOES NOT ALLOW REPLIES ------

that's exactly what I tell my kid!

and sometimes, I tell you, it gets **** frustrating





------ THIS THREAD IS LOCKED AND DOES NOT ALLOW REPLIES ------

I agree with Jacko, if you don't like what's being said, ignore it.

DF, I think the word could be blatant.







------ THIS THREAD IS LOCKED AND DOES NOT ALLOW REPLIES ------

yes..

I like that word... blatant

so that's two new words today

blatant and tug boat





------ THIS THREAD IS LOCKED AND DOES NOT ALLOW REPLIES ------

Who called me a tug boat I,m a beautiful cruiser.





------ THIS THREAD IS LOCKED AND DOES NOT ALLOW REPLIES ------

does that sound right?

------ THIS THREAD IS LOCKED AND DOES NOT ALLOW REPLIES ------

Listen young lady, being a large ocean going cruiser I,ve been tugged many a time, donchaknow.
