(the old) Tribunal Commentary Thread

Then let's just drop the censor and ban people who swear.
This way no one can blame the poor asterisks for being something they are not.

oh for fecks sake what a shite idea you bugger - I'd be banned in about 30 seconds

seriously though, swearing on its own won't get you pinged by a moderator (unless really gratuitous and continuous and you have been asked to stop) - evading the censor will get you pinged as will flaming, and attempting to hide a flame behind asterisks just doesn't work, if it wasn't a flame then you wouldn't need to hide it

Oh, and feel free to offer up a word bad enough to be self-censored that can complete the sentence without making it an insult at any time you want

Hmm.

Is it bad that I laughed?

[makanyane]

Is it bad that I laughed?

Yes, you may be punished for lack of empathy

[Hotspur]

Is it bad that I laughed?

No, because I did too. Does this mean Mak will punish us both?


I need to pick a fun safe word....

For some reason that seems rather pointless, considering that the way that I posed was completely grammatically correct and that any problems in its understanding were entirely yours...

Might just be me, though?

And naturally I posted that question without reading those posts and judging them completely unsuited to the context and thus inadequate in its explanation?

[Hotspur]

No, you're missing the point: not all self-censored words are "bad". The last couple of pages in this thread are full of self-censored words. Are you going to warn all of us?

Might just be me, though?

Yes, because admitting to an error has always been one of your strong points. Hmm...something's not right...

...all better now.

I'm not sure which is worse: asking a question when you've already made up your mind, or answering a question when the asker has already made up his mind. Probably the former.

Pm's are a useful way to communicate and spares the rest of us from your flirting.

Where did my appeal for "Diva" go?

The newly created, and really rather useful from an organisational point of view, case archive.

[Professor420]

I saw, I thought my appeal was more recent than July and didn't read over the thread properly to see that was the one I was looking for, my apologies.
