just to note, i didn't bring this up only just for my sake, but for countless others who've been having this happen to them. the only reason why i've now decided to post about it is because i'm starting to understand how those other "victims" feel about it. some people like blacklabel don't care, hence his cancerous attitude and "infamous" reputation. however some people, such as myself, care enough about human decency to post about it and are willing to take the backlash of the **** people are bound to throw at us......and that's because yes, i really don't care that much about it, or i wouldn't willing be posting knowing full well that my rep will most likely be dropping as a result
however:
Flaming - We do not tolerate abusive, malicious, personal attacks. You will be banned if you persist in this behavior.
Trolls - Anyone deliberately antagonizing other forum users by posting 'flame bait' type messages is not welcome. You will be banned (possibly without warning depending on the severity of the issue) if you persist in this behavior.
those are the forum rules and people are being allow to violate them without being held accountable. sure people will laugh about it, probably even moderators and devs are finding this amusing, but like i said, i really don't care that much to be concerned about that. however that's not going to stop me from pointing out that this feature is being abused and those who have the authority to stop it appear to be too arrogant to do so.
