As if a quote pyramid actually inconveniences anyone. Why do people feel the need to quote the whole thing? Why is it necessary for comments to be posted 20 times over on a page? It's unsightly and tedious. I like to think I don't use words that don't need to be used, and if I agree with something but don't have any more words to add I think a quote will show that I support a given view and give it further weight. If I didn't, something that only 1% of this community would agree with would be given equal visibility. Frankly I think they have a function in discussion in a football forum. And how hard is it to scroll past? 95% of the crap people post here is worth scrolling past anyway! :lol: Edited by paladisious: 19/11/2013 10:21:03 PM

It'd be better if posts had a kudos system.

I also agree with afro's post, but in fear of being prosecuted for spam, a pyramid, or a "+1" pyramid, I cannot fully express my opinion.
Hence, I am writing my post like this.

And yes I was being meta re pyramiding Afroman's kudos quote.
Because a kudos system is exactly what it is, and it fits the infrastructure of this forum software.
I think common sense should be applied and only deleted, locked or banned when abused, for example when one poster adds to the pyramid more than once, etc.

Will those banned in the Pyramid Putsch miss the deadline for voting? Can you send PM's while banned?

Deadline is Dec. 10th. They'll be back by then. pv4 had already voted, I dunno who else got dispatched but I don't expect ducky to vote any way.

You created a thread about awards which encouraged members to personally attack other members by nominating them for an award that is insulting in its description. The fact you did not nominate anyone is rather irrelevant to whether the award's description is insulting to those nominated for it.

Which kind of proves the point. I didn't encourage people to make the nominations, they did that themselves. And again, three mods have given it the ok.

It's fairly simple if you don't like thread, then perhaps it is best to not enter the thread.

How are you supposed to know that you don't like a thread before entering that thread and finding out that it is insulting? I think forum awards are a good idea however having one that insults people is not a good idea.

No I am not only complaining because I am nominated for the award, I am complaining because I think it is against the rules. I would be quite happy to win the award because it means I am being insulted not another member of the forum. I was punished for breaking the rules which I have no problem with. I gave commitment to Funky Munky in a PM after my ban that I would change my behavior, stop insulting other and swearing, completely follow the rules. I would just like to see the same standard set for everyone. Are mods 100% right 100% of the time?

This is why everyone wanted you banned. I've had rashes that I've enjoyed more than what you bring to this forum.

If the mods have determined that no rules are being broken then who are you to say otherwise?
If you don't like it, don't come in here. The only thing that's truly insulting is your stupidity.
