A rant on UPS....

[Deleted member 199]

It's not the words, it's how they're used. For example "I fucking despise UPS" seems to be OK, but "I think MacRumors is a great place for liberals to hang out" may well get the evil eye....

I find young males of the species Mustela nivalis make for fair, balanced moderators of community discussions

Also you might win on a technicality. This rant thread isn’t in the rants forum.

that’s probably a lifetime ban.

It's also verred massively off-topic already and it's barely even started. Oh my, the MR mods would have a field day - it's like a smorgasbord of "instantly bannable offenses"

 

[Renzatic]

Just not fair. What's a girl gotta do to get banned round here? Invite CanHaz over?

You could always try to invite Hieveryone, though doing probably won't lead to a ban. More than likely, you'll be honored for making such a bold move.

Action can be taken here as well if it gets too bad. Like brutally carving out the diseased off-topic posts from the suffering thread and planting them in a new thread where they can flourish, live long and prosper.

I do know one way you can earn a ban here...

I’d be truly frightened of a site JK is NOT banned from.

I don't hate myself that much...

I noticed how much of an acquired taste he was when he got invited back into PRSI. Then invited right back out of it again a year or so later...

Don't make fun of JK! He's a little slow, but he tries his best! He really does!

One good thing about having him around is that he'll always find a way to kick off a conversation. The bad thing is that he pulls topics from a fairly limited repertoire.

...and holy shit, the memes.

You knew where you stood with him. Unlike some of the other weasels that inhabit MR...

Plus, I kindasorta got him a little bit permabanned from MR here a few years back, so I feel like I owe him like a coke or something.

Perhaps half a coke. Maybe a diet coke. Possibly flat.

Hell, I've probably got some old prune juice in the back of the fridge...

How about a coupon for a free glass of shut the fuck up?

A better advocate couldn't be found, you are a true friend. It's too bad we couldn't come up with a solution.

Why would you need a coupon? Glasses of shut the fuck up are always free.

Tragically, there are few who take up the offer.

Oh for... yesterday @Pumbaa got me with a one-liner sneak-attack whilst I just taken a mouthful of tea and now you just did the bloody same with some grape soda!
