It was the pic that got him banned. I'm sure he's done worse than *** before.

Call me a *** and I laugh at you. Post my pic and call me a ***, I ban you, then laugh at you. Get how I work? My life doesn't stop either way, but one gets you banned, one doesn't.

Ever since Cam left, the axe has been put in the closet and you've basically gone on saying and doing whatever you feel like, with no punishment. Calling someone a *** can get you banned, and all of you know that. But since the rules haven't been enforced for the past few months, I may allow Chris back into the forums, assuming this served as a good enough warning.

You guys know the rules, and you know you can get banned everytime you break them. So go ahead, take your chances, just don't complain the time the rules get enforced.

Meh, Do whatever the **** you want.

But don't let personal feelings get in the way.

Being an Administrator is much like being a politician. Being a politician you must separate church and state, being an Administrator you must separate your own personal feelings from the forums. I must admit at the forums I Admin at there are quite a few people I dislike, but would I ban them because of that? Of course not!

If you are going to ban Chris (who personally I don't like) for expressing his opinion then you have to ban me for also expressing my opinion. Frankly you would have to ban the entire forums. Every single day people express their opinions, does that mean they will be banned from the Earth? Of course not!

Well, I think this is all gekko's fault. I mean, come on. You give us a picture of you, and some people do not like you. Did a thought ever cross your mind that somebody will tamper with it? This all could have not happened if Gekko didn't show us that picture of his face.

Actually, think about it for a moment... Gekko is a member as much as he is an admin... So taking that into account, I am sure that the same result would have taken place if a picture of another person at the forums had been tampered with and ridiculed... I don't think abusive action (whatever you may wish to call it) is permitted against fellow members at the forums, which is a rule that Chris broke unfortunately...

Did I ever give you a picture of me? You joined when? Last April? that picture was taken in 2000. That picture is old, and it was Shooter who brought it back. I didn't even remember where it was.

In fact, now that I think of it, that pic was taken before GT was around. I never showed you the picture, someone else did.

Think about it, if I banned people I didn't like, there would be a forum of no more than 20 people, and you would've lasted more than a day.

The Gekko Regime sounds scary....

And I don't consider banning Chris an abuse of power.. what you want Chris to do to return is an abuse

I'll more than likely let Chris back tomorrow. Then give him a couple days, he'll screw up again. He only gets one more shot.

Well, considering neither of us are fortune tellers lets not try to predict the future. Now I can't tell you if Gekko would ban someone if they posted a mean picture up about me, but we can both have our own opinions about that. But the fact remains that he banned Chris for one thing. Now, does everyone remember that guy who posted a topic with 75% of the words being curse words? I think he should have at least been warned and/or banned on the spot. I see no difference from that from what Chris did, other then it attacked Gekko. Now from what I've heard Chris didn't even post this from himself to Gekko, he was just merely giving it out to the public. I could most a picture of myself looking like an idiot and no one would care.

You say that know, but I must ask why you didnt say this in the first place? Which would have stopped this uprising.

That would be Heen05. That post was funny because it was so stupid.

Damnit! I'm sorry, gekko. I hit the Edit button instead of the Quote button without realizing it.

Um...hope you remember what you said.
