Splatulated

  Splat's threads/posts annoy me. I don't click them. I literally have no problems with him. Don't even have to use the ignore function.
  
  A good portion of the people on this forum annoy me. I don't click their threads/read their comments. I literally have no problems with them.

  The people in this thread saying it's okay to be rude to him because he brought it on himself with his attitude are just as bad as the people who say it's okay to rape women because of their dress.

  As a former Runescape vet myself, I am biased against Autotypers, but I won't bring that up.

  In the last two days that he was active, and they made up half of his posts in that time.
  
  Now, I'm aware those are Bean Rua threads, but they seem to be a little too spammy even for that. Most of the time the premise of a thread is intelligent before it gets derailed.

  Or folks have finally driven him off.

  
  
  That's not what I was referring to.
  I'm not talking about his current disappearance.
  I'm talking about just his threads he's made.

  I don't see how this is even a remotely fair analogy. Both are bad, but one is treating others as you would like to be treated and one is *rape*.
  
  I understand what you're saying, but the analogy is so far out of proportion it's shocking.

  Are some of you guys trying to justify all the crap you give him?
  
  Whether he's trolling or asking for it or whatever, isn't the actual matter at hand, and the topic of this thread, not him, but you guys?

  It's not very difficult...
  
  If he does something wrong, report it. A lot of people seem to be saying he's posting off topic stuff in threads in the mabinogi section, if he had been legitimately reported for those as many times as people seem to be bitching about it he'd be banned by now for accumulated infraction points.
  
  If he posts something silly in BR and you don't want to deal with it, then don't read it.
  If he makes a legit thread that in your opinion is too silly to deal with, then move on to something else.
  
  It takes more effort to reply to something you consider stupid than to move on, which is true for any situation in life not just this.

  Thank you. I would appreciate more support and intelligent discussion regarding this matter as opposed to ignorant flaming - or else this thread would get locked and the issue lost.
  

  
  
  I would appreciate this as well.
  
  You're very articulate with your posts, and you bring up good points. The staff doesn't accept a "sorry" and believe automatically someone is sorry, we know better. However, in the case of Splat there seems to be a disconnect with what people are telling him and what he is understanding. The staff knows this, and we know it frustrates people however by no means does that constitute the right for people to bully him as they have been. Instead of both sides trying to understand and work with each other, the staff is finding hate being flung at Splatulated for the simplest things; such as him creating a thread. How would you feel if every time you went to a forum all you saw was people mocking, insulting, and giving you answers that don't solve the issue? I would feel horrible, so at this point I can only imagine how Splat feels.
  
  It's one thing for members to disagree or dislike a fellow member, it's another subject entirely for people to react how they have been. Where is the level of maturity that is expected from the members? I do believe the site says 16+, meaning we expect a certain amount of maturity from everyone. But there has been a serious lack of maturity, as well as kindness, on these forums lately. There is literally no excuse that justifies how a large amount of people have been treating Splatulated, none. A lot of people need to take a step back from their computers, and realize that there is a real person on the other side of that username. What you say on these forums can hurt a person in reality, and I shouldn't have to sit here and be disgusted by a large amount of people that are on these forums because they don't have the decency to treat others like they expect to be treated.

  That is an issue you need to work on then.

  I remember him saying that he was 21 in some post. Weather or not he was lying I don't know, but I think thats the main reason people complain about him.

  
  
  Regardless of his age, it doesn't give people the right to act like they have been.

  You seem new, so I will let you in on a little tip: A lot of the people here are jackasses. You learn to ignore them and have fun with the incredibly few here who are decent.

  Essentially, people waste their time on him when they deem him unworthy of their time.

  Pretty much, of course, it isn't as severe, but it's horrible.
  He hasn't been breaking any rules, and your annoyance is your own problem, not his, not the mods, yours.

  These are the kind of official posts I was looking for, and now that I understand the staff point of view on this matter i'll accept their ruling on it and encourage others to read these posts in detail, as the premise behind them will help you greatly in dealing with this issue. Thank you very much.

  If you're looking for decency on the internet, then I'm sorry, but you're really at the wrong place. Sure, I can decide not to be an asshole, but there are two sides to an argument, and my side is just as valid as the other. I'm sure this applies to many other people. None of us like his threads, and we want it to stop. If he can put the slightest amount of knowledge into his posts, then sure, I'll deal with that. But the amount of bullshit and retardation he posts is overwhelming.
