I've been on a few forums in the past few years, and this is my favorite by far. It's the most loosely moderated forum I've ever been on. The only people that feel the wrath of the mods deserve it in the first place. Jay says not to post links to FE...don't fucking do it! It's not that hard! If you do, all it does is piss everybody off and spark a feud that would've been easily avoidable.
AWK was a slimy disgrace to humanity that deserves waay more punishment in life than being banned from a forum. Stinky-Dinkins, on the other hand, cracks jokes at people that annoy him, and most of the time they deserve it. Check the hot.like.fire thread (around page 10, if I'm not mistaken) to see what I'm talking about. If you were a mod, and you banned Stinky, you wouldn't be a mod much longer. You'd have people calling you a little bitch, sort of like I'm doing right now.
You say that Jay is in the wrong by telling people to leave if they don't like it. Well, if I had a choice between people like you bitching all the time, or people like you leaving, I'd choose the latter.
In summary:
Shut The Fuck Up.
Thank you.
