Like Chilltown said, its dirty.
I fought for months to keep TuT and Epi from being banned and spent hours privately discussing/pleading with them to tone it down. They'd have been canned way prior otherwise.
What we do ask for in return is don't mistake leniency and inaction for us being ******s. We know what's up, we just prefer that those who want to participate, are able to, and will go to extraordinary lengths to let them as long as they can avoid being train-wreck disruptive most of the time. Alternative views and extra traffic are good way more often than bad.
The plot as far as you're concerned is that you suck, and you think you're way smarter and more clever than you are, but whatever, I'm not gonna ban you for it. Others might if I stepped down. That's the plot.
