I'm gonna say right now that I don't fully approve of this thread being started the way it was...but if you must know...
He's on a type of probation as I understand it. Not to use the forums until 'unlocked', if you will. Lets get our man unlocked. =P
Simmer down fruit cake...it's only temporary
in my opinion, no one party was more 'right' than the other. The punishment given out (albeit not my decision) was far too harsh. He has as much of a right as anyone of us to say his peace.
That's your opinion; which you're entitled to.
Remember that post about me taking it over the line:laugh:? Well that's what happened. We (XRU Staff) aren't saying that one party is right an one is wrong...but one party crossed that line; in which resulted in what happened because we don't tolerate things like that. This action is what caused a temp probation. Nobody is banned here if you must know.
And FYI --- Doug has been communicating with us, and has mentioned that he's "OK" with not being a vendor, because he really wasn't selling anything lately. He's actually been a pretty stand up guy about the whole situation. Certain members (including myself; even as a staff member) tend to push the boundaries every once in a while. And when we look back on it, we realize that we were in the wrong...shit I have. Before I was a staff member, I can't even count the number of times I've had shit deleted or threads closed.
Steve (ntinhri) has been put on probation before (not entirely his fault), but he still was because XRU Rules and Guidelines were horribly broken.
It's all about what's best for the members and the future of XRU...plain and simple.
Lets just get him back and forget all this crap ever happened
Don't worry, your BF is safe...he's just trying to play hard to get:laugh:
David is a legit guy and I can honestly say when this guy gives out knowledge I just shut up and listen.
You might have just earned yourself some XRU poker money:laugh:
