Purple began testing the limits of BK's new User Agreement yesterday by mockingly dedicating innappropriate songs to those he doesn't like. This is something he started, you'll notice.
So Purple is the instigator.
It is a shame such unethical people have moderating power.
Yes it can, of course. But please let me just say that my statement about ughaibu was a tongue-in-cheek compliment. I highly approve of his thinking as displayed recently on the Uncensored Debate DB.
Excellent work, Bernice. I stand corrected and you are correct. Forgive me for combining in my mind what is written therein with Fencer's statement below and coming to a rational, just conclusion. The fault is all mine.
I agree with many who are concerned with Gothic's threats and Fencer's silence. Fencer is really passing the buck here. A shame since this is his sight and he has many loyal customers. If he booted Gothic he'd be an instant hero. If he allows Gothic to boot paying members with legitimate complaints, then he has taken a step backwards. If he continues to remain silent and not address an issue which concerns us all (except in vague terms with tons of sliding room that appears less than fully honest to his customers) then it hurts him in the long run.
Of course, since Fencer won't deny it, maybe Gothic has a point. He may be willing to sacrifice current dissatisfied customers in order to do what he considers "the best for Brainking", ban the issue from further discussion, wipe the memory banks so to speak, and repackage BK for the customer of the future.
What we are asking, perhaps, is that Fencer be a human being as well as a businessman. Although even a pure businessman ought to be wiser than this. My honest belief is that business with Trice can only end in failure for Fencer, based on Trice's record outside of BK and personal dealings with him here.
I hope Fencer is at least still on the fence enough to come to his senses. And if and when he does, he ought to be hailed as the hero he is. Few of us have been in his shoes and have little idea how tempting Gothic's offer might be. Few of us know his personal circumstances.
It is NEVER easy to stand for what is right and do right, when one perceives the personal cost in doing so may be especially great. My opinion: Fencer is a good man in a bind. But his character is being forged as we speak. If he backs out of the Gothic deal, he'll be my hero for sure.
BrainKing will be a MAJOR success and grow by leaps and bounds in the near future. It's the best gamesite on the Web now, in terms of its management and structure. Once the glitches are worked out there will be no looking back.
For budding poets and poet-lovers alike there's a brand new DB here on BK for just that purpose. I'm certain there is talent here just waiting to burst out of the woodwork so don't hesitate to enrich all of our lives with your original stuff and/or your favorites. The board awaits your creative touch. Enjoy.
The issue here for Fencer seems to be money rather than time, Gubbe. As such, cutting down on his playing time addresses nothing of importance. And from a positive standpoint it helps him get to know some of the members. I believe this site will improve. All things take time. Especially good things.
