With that comes the responsibility to police ourselves and I don't think it's unreasonable for moderation to expect us to be respectful of one another on a cultural level.
I was going to reply to Hoyboy with a big ol' +1, but fuck it. This is important enough that it needs it own thread.
There has been a lot of dumb butthurt around here lately, with people bitching about the mods, and censorship, and lengthy visit by the WAHHHHHHHMBULANCE.
Guys, stop. This is by far the coolest forum I've ever posted on, it is one of the loosest when it comes to moderation, and it's one of the best at following the "Don't be an asshole" rule. But lately, we've had some people who couldn't resist the urge to violate rule #1. If I were a mod, I would just have fucking banned their sorry asses. So I guess it's a good thing that I'm not one. But what I can say is that the mods have done a better job than I ever would, it's a thankless job, and I want to publicly thank them for doing it. And for keeping this forum from falling into a cesspool of awfulness like 4chan or crap like that.
