Halibut Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 It doesn't matter what rules, the post offended him, so in my book that's fine person should be banned I'll assume that's some kind of lame attempt at humour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruno Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 I'll assume that's some kind of lame attempt at humour. Not at all, if he found it offensive, who am I or you to disagree ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halibut Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Not at all, if he found it offensive, who am I or you to disagree ? I'm not disputing his right to be offended, I'm disputing the notion that a person should be banned just because one user finds them offensive. There are rules about which behaviours result in a ban and that post didn't break any of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daneha Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Which rules did you think the post was breaking then? Possibly this one.

But that's nothing to do with you or me, that will be down to admin, I'd assume when he clicked the report button, he put his reason/s Maybe you will have to keep checking the profile of the said person to see if he/she is banned and if this happens perhaps you can contact the help desk, whether they would be willing to discuss any ban (if it happens) is up to them, but I would have thought not, but it's not up to me.

oooo Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 I'm not disputing his right to be offended, I'm disputing the notion that a person should be banned just because one user finds them offensive. There are rules about which behaviours result in a ban and that post didn't break any of them. Im sure if someone was offended by a post, they should be given the right to ask for a ban. Its not fair to assume that someone shouldn't be able to request this action, if they felt offended enough by another persons comments. To be blunt, it isn't your business. Its theirs.

Don't insult members intelligence and try to deny this, quite a few have been victims to it. Don't you usually start by questioning a poster and asking for proof to back up their view ?

If so you must accept that he has a right to state them? ---------- Post added 09-01-2014 at 00:09 ---------- is that why you lot hang around in packs and back each other up on topics you wish to see removed.
