Australian Politics Forum - different rules for different people

For some reason many of the members seem OK with that. Do you want me to have a separate special set of rules for Grendel? Do you want me to discard the rules altogether to accomodate him?

If there are special rules for anybody I would like to have my own special rules too.

I assume his tendency to call everyone who does not agree a moron, or similiar, is the issue, if that is all, I am not sure that many would take to heart too much of what he writes.

I suppose I am used to him, and it doesn't bother me at all, I suppose if it can be seen as extreme banter, it would be OK, if it turns too personal, then I can see why his excesses would be of concern to you.

Of course not FD. Grendel is not unintelligent - but there are others on this forum who have said a lot worse in the past.

He is liked by quite a few here who are used to his posts on Cracker - perhaps you need to be more specific and say exactly what is upsetting people.

How many complaints were made about a certain poster calling me a "C" - before banning took place - and he wasn't banned because of that - he insulted you & Oceanz FD.

It took a lot longer with IQ because people were 'returning fire'. I had to give a few people temporary bans around that time.

I have been very specific with Grendel about what is inappropriate and he has indicated he understands what I consider inappropriate. He just doesn't think he should have to abide by the rules.

There are plenty of examples of that on the web.

Well I haven't said much at all sprint, so you'd be right and fd would be wrong and a liar to boot.

As for skippy... I've heard many a Lwinger call others a pissant dear boy. As for "dogturd"... I didn't complain and any such insult from you is water off a ducks back to me. But then fd is a hypocrite if he doesn't ban you for it IMO. I'm also use to your deliusions and lies.

As for Lestat... he seems to whing and whine and complain lots... perhaps fd should tell him to grow a thicker skin. I note Lestat like rubbing many people's noses in it... perhaps he doesn't like it being returned.

I have't sworn at anyone and I haven't used terminology not in the dictionary or inappropriate.

Maybe fd has a problem personally... I can understand that... we've never gotten on.

Oh and I'd like to know why my suggestion of walling in the ME was deleted/censored/removed from the topic I posted it in.

Been looking for it can't find it.

So a reason or a pointer to where it is would be nice.

Lol

OH, BTW just read your rules...
Oops...

No personal criticism? Hmmm, pretty broad isn't it?

Oh and I just had a quick look at Lestat and some others, so calling people fools etc doesn't count as personal criticism? Sorry.
Seems to me there are already rules for some.

That's a pretty big call Grendel, considering I have been pointing out your inappropriate posts for so long. The more of a pain in the arse you make yourself, the less slack I'm going to cut you.

Here are just a few of Grendels charms:

http://www.ozpolitic.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1223887478/68#68

Well you are just a bigoted ignorant pissant

http://www.ozpolitic.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1223905172/26#26

aboo showed us all his ignorance via stereotypical bigotry something he continually rails against... hypocrite that he is.

http://www.ozpolitic.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1223989513/4#4

yes... much worse IMO than calling someone a goober or a moron.

Yes I'm back after being banned... thanks people seems FD has seen the error of his ways.

Oh BTW fd.
moron
–noun 1. a person who is notably stupid or lacking in good judgment.

I think when I use it the term is completely appropriate.

http://www.ozpolitic.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1223174305/56#56

As for calling a moron a moron fd... sorry but I call a spade a spade... who else would crap on about the media

DWMT moron.

http://www.ozpolitic.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1223571552/18#18

you are a complete moron fd.

Good to see aboo proving he's almost as stupid as you.

http://www.ozpolitic.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1211449587/86#86

You are still an idiot I see

http://www.ozpolitic.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1220782413

Mozz you idiot...

http://www.ozpolitic.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1211449587/71#71

if you want Italian... visit Italy or migrate... idiot.

And end rant, see I told you he was unstable, he makes imperial look perfectly sane.
Carry on boof, this is much funnier than all that muslim stuff.

OH DEAR YOU CAN LEAVE THAT ONE OUT SKIP...
NOT PERSONAL CRITICISM AT ALL

Oh BTW fd.

LOL, BETTER BAN THAT DICTIONARY EH SKIPPY Grin

AND THAT ONE...

AND THAT ONE...

AS FOR THE 3 WITH "IDIOT" IN THEM PUHLEASE... GET A LIFE.

YOU ARE A TRY-HARD SKIPPY, NO DENYING THAT.

here's a couple more for you Skip and I won't even bother looking at your crap.

All are personal criticism.
Most of them just out of one topic.

lestat

THe prophet did not have a brother you dim wit.

Now I understand that with your limited capabilities all your capable of is rather vulgar abuse, with limited wit I might add.

It isn't surprising that one with your limited capabilities is not able to recognise sarcasm.

THe question must be asked...what kind of a Christian are you.....not a good one obviously

lol....well how bout you start practising what you preach. Hypocrite.

Simple minds are amused by simple things.....

malik

Now you can consider this post as a warning for you Sprint as it seems you have NOT changed from your old bigoted ways

exotic cheese

nope my mistake you and sprinty are typical idiot white Australians.

abu

So forgive some for assuming you sound just a little Nazi-like (and therefore probably a sympathiser with white supremacists).

NOT ONLY PERSONAL CRITICISM AND INSULTING BUT LIBELOUS TO BOOT.

Now I could also go look for stuff aimed just at me, but I let most crap go by.
