are you joking? that would have actually required some form of wit and intelligence, both of which he completely lacks.
hey that's fucking great winnow. I'm wondering though; could you be a creepier fucking pervert?
Best guess would be that winnow is almost finished his kyoukan-suit made out of dead hookers and he's trying to see if he pull off acting like me.
no argument will ever convince you because you are a fucking obtuse mongloid.
Oh, I forgot. I am throwing the words "history and culture" at an American.
what a douche
don't you waste your life on deviantart.com pretending you have a skill?
you fat fucking loud mouthed slob.
well this is 15 minutes worth of looking

I can't believe people have taken this thread 6 pages (even though one page is Stargi/Narcissus repeatedly posting his pic).
Comparing Cart to Kyou isn't accurate: Kyou posts substance mixed with her flames/attacks. Cart never posted substance outside the Sports forums, and he outright killed discussions in CE. It wasn't his point of view: people argue with Midnight, Winnow and even Funk because there is something to respond to besides a one liner an 8 yr old comes up with. I don't agree with half of what TeenyNick says but at least it can be discussed with him (sometimes ) before it degenerates into mindless insults.
I accept what Sylvus has said on this: it wasn't a single action but the combination. Its not like IGN where we were banned for using profanity or anything else the invading mods found objectionable, its a rare case where someone refused to comply with the very few rules we DO have.

Wow Kilmoll, I'm impressed. You've managed to cherry pick truly damning evidence there, let me tell you. The difference that you and others seem to be unable to grasp is that Sylvus managed to find dozens of examples to support his case in just the last 50 threads in which Cartalas participated. Conversely, in the last 50 threads in which Kyoukan has posted, I was unable to find more than a handful in which she did not make a relevant contribution to the discussion (along with a healthy dose of insults along the way). Again, it's not even in the same ballpark as the torrent of worthless, inane spew that Cartalas inflicted on this board every day. Does Kyoukan hurl some insults? Sure. Does she make one line comments that some may take to be trolls? Sure. Along the way, she also makes topical, lucid and informed comments, and there's the difference. Just because you or me or others disagree with some of her points, doesn't diminish her posts.

The spirit of VV is discussion laced with flames/insults/attacks.
Cartalas rarely ever took part in an actual discussion.

Well, I am not sure how much either of you have noticed regarding post-history, but you cannot view Kyoukan's history via her profile like you can with most of us. You can, however, view it by searching for anyone else's posts and then edit the name in the address bar : http://www.veeshanvault.org/forums/sear ... ults=postsXatrei wrote:Wow Kilmoll, I'm impressed.

i dunno Lala...
Al and Arb butted heads awhile ago in the current events thread over the median length of a manta ray's pecker, or something.
Once all photon torpedoes and phasers had been expended, i think it ended in more or less a respectful truce.

I'm going to chime in with my opinion:
I'm against bannings on principle, including Cartalas. But, the people who run these boards can do whatever the fuck they want. I just post, and just count as one opinion more in the mass.
I think I side with Kwon on this thread.

Banning Cart is dredging up realizations of being generally disliked around here in a couple people.

Hence the defensive (and protective) behavior when the action wasn't even directed at them. This banning has given them a chance to lament (verbosely I might add--although I bet most people stopped reading after a couple sentences) their own position.

While it seems unlikely that anything will change with this situation, discussion never hurts to clear things up, squeezing in a flame or two in the process.
Cart would have wanted it that way.

In all seriousness, I can understand the fellows supporting "absolute freedom of speech" such as Winnow, Kilmoll, Midnyte etc even if I do think their tactics of masturbating violently over how brilliant Cartalas was is a little retarded. Comparing me to Cartalas is however a fucking moronic state of affairs and you know it, dipshit.
Nevertheless, I don't think a single one of you will miss him, apart from some fucked up desire to view "SHUT UP CUNT" every now and again in every thread he posts in.
Seriously guys, is this actually a big loss to your literary intake? However hard it may be to believe, I'd be the first to ask for Carts reinstatement if he made even the most cursory attempt to post ANYTHING of value. You and I both know that isn't going to happen.
Is it so fucking much to ask for a human being to type some vaguely intelligible viewpoint once every couple of weeks?
If it is, I'd seriously suggest going and reading a fucking book and stop acting like such reactionary idiots. I'm as much for a random revolution for the sake of it as you are, but jesus christ this is just crossing the line into abject stupidity at this point.
Edit: Why am I the only fuck who owned up to pming Sylvus, you pussies!
Edit2: To Sylvus, man when I sent that PM and got your reply I honestly thought you were exaggerating on how much of a reaction such a state of affairs would bring about. Sorry for doubting you! What a load of nonsense

Sigh, Nick
Okay, you can look thru my psots about Cart, I made it clear, publically and on this board that I did not like him. This is not about Cart.
This is about banning people on VV, not about Cart.
But the next time someone decides to make a single comment about a RL pic, they have to go to, we should not have double standards. I don't care if they are some chick that is being hit on, I do not care who they are.

I have absolutely zero ties to Cartalas....he made me laugh no occasion and he posted in the sports dorum with non-trolling material. The thing that pisses me off is there is a serious double standard. There are a group of about 10 people who can do no wrong and are always right in everyone's eyes and the cock slobbering they do over each other is definitely high school material and just makes me want to vomit.
Yea....all you fucks can sit and band together and bitch about Bush and Christ and anythign you want, but the one thing Cart did was make some of us laugh on occasion and sometimes that is nice. Now that you banned one of the people who actually made the non-ultra liberals smile, we get to see the fuckstain of the earth kyoukan every day with nothing to balance her out. Thanks.

No, that's not going to happen. As always, myself or Py or Xouqoa will use our discretion, which I believe most people would say has been pretty good. Most people. As in "you can't please everyone", and my apologies if you're in the minority who does not approve. Like I've pointed out numerous times in this thread, it wasn't about a single comment. It wasn't even about 50 comments, and it wasn't only about the 100 or more comments he made. It was a combination of a number of things, most notably that he continually violated the rules while bringing nothing to the table, which is also one of the rules. Make a contribution to the discussion on the boards, like everyone here does to a greater extent than cartalas did, and you'll get a little more benefit of the doubt. And even he was allowed to post for at least 2.5 years longer than he should have been.

Hopefully, the others feel a little shame. It's pathetic that because someone bothered you or broke a ridiculous rule that you went running to Mommy to stop the bad guy. Grownups ignore people who bother them. Grownups avoid people who bother them. No matter how disgusting people have gotten with me over the years of abuse I have taken, whether they talk about wishing my kids would die in an unjust war or whether they wish I would die or be killed, I never once PM'd a moderator.

I've PMed mods on several occasions for only one poster, and that was you, Midnyte. Why PM the mods? Because you've posted a bunch of shit that was totally inappropriate for this message board that I felt needed to be removed immediately.
There's nothing wrong with PMing the mods when necessary, and given that Cart rung up 5 in the course of a week, it's likely that others don't share your opinion. Imagine that.
I know that you and Cart don't get it, but even on VV where 'Anything goes...' there's a certain sense of decency and decorum.

No one has ever wished death upon your children. We've just wished they had a different father from time to time.
I'm not going to speak to everyone else, but I'd point out to you that though I've vehemently disagreed with your views, viewpoint and attitude from time to time, I was nice enough to recently recommend you remove your personal information from an email you recently posted instead of say... doing something with the email you recently posted.
I'm telling you man, you just don't get it. No one here hates anyone here. Everyone here is free to post whatever they want. But when you do shit that's far out of what's acceptable, you're going to generate some ill-will, and it will take some time to repair that. You've posted blatantly racist shit and you're probably one of the best trolls I've ever seen from time to time (I can't recall the specific posts, but I refuse to believe you were posting honestly).

You might have a point if it was a single comment that Cartalas had made.
Everyone is aware the stalker-like obsession that Cartalas has had regarding Dregor's weight (based on his RL pic). If you look back through his post history, Cartalas has been continually breaking VVs only real rule for the past FOUR YEARS.
So take your double standards and shove em up your ass.

There is nobody that has ever come close to violating the only real rule on VV as Cartalas. He did it continually for four years.

there is a large difference between me calling you a portly fatass (i have no idea what you look like) and calling dregor one. but i'll play your game to your liking...
regarding the atokal comment, yea we said it and what not, ok? but did we say it for 4 straight years? even after being warned numerous times? no.
you guys really are grasping, and its looking kind of pathetic.

No one got banned for calling atokal a child molestor because it was in direct response to him either calling noel a cyber rapist or violating the same rules that cartalas did. Plus it wasn't a fucking attack on his picture.
In 5 minutes of searching I've found over 100 instances of cartalas calling dregor and kylere fat, as well as making fun of miir's wife's appearance in a picture that he posted. I'm sure there are even more than that, if I had the time and interest in searching for more. There were also a large number of homophobic posts that I think were directed at actual homosexuals but quotes don't show up in a search (as well as cartalas never entirely grasping the quote function) so I can't be certain who they were directed at. I'm not even sure if that's a no-no, as it isn't an attack on RL pictures, but it's another speeding ticket added onto his vehicular manslaughter charges nonetheless.
None of that really matters though because it wasn't the only reason he was banned. It was hardly even the main reason, though it was a bannable offense. He was banned because he was totally worthless, he was the biggest offender of the RL picture rule and because he challenged me to do it.
I am by no means encouraging people to stop attacking one another, no one ever has been. The rule about RL pictures has been in place since the first picture thread was ever posted, and it's probably because it's the main thing that has absolutely no impact on a group of what were once strangers interacting electronically through faceless computers. The rule was put in place because people wanted to get to know others better and see what they looked like, and that's difficult to get people to do if others are going to use the pictures as fuel for flames. When you're among a collection of minds detached from their bodies, the only things you should be making fun of are behaviors, actions, beliefs and intelligence.
Resorting to attacks on someone being fat or short or ugly or whatever is busch league and you should probably work on your game before you bring that shit around here. Or at least make it funny and use it (infrequently) in a flame war, rather than just following someone around doing it all the time, even doing it when the person hasn't even posted in a thread. Or use it in retaliation to a specific insult someone used on you. People are acting like 30 people in an imaginary fnord have been running around making personal attacks on people's appearance forever, and cartalas made one comment and was banned. That's not even close to the truth, in fact the truth is pretty much the opposite of that.
Cut the shit about the fnord or whatever, if I banned people because my friends asked me to, there'd be about 20 fewer people on this board. And Cartalas would have been banned 1000 times over the last 5 years. If I banned people because they had opinions that differed than mine or leaned a different way politically, about half the people that have posted on this page would have been banned long ago.
No one else on this board has anything to worry about unless they are completely worthless, continuously break the rules, and challenge me to ban them. With cartalas gone, there isn't even anyone here that I would call worthless anymore, not even people like Midnyte whose opinions I almost always disagree with and often cannot fathom. Skewed as it may be, at least he's posting an opinion.

Thanks Sylvus. I'm blushing a bit. I'm sending you a quarter via paypal for a virtual moustache ride.Sylvus wrote:
