If I recall correctly, I read a few weeks ago that the next person to post this crap gets banned.

These are human beings you are disgracing. They have families, I really hope the mod that wrote that stays true to his word.

PM Neo if it bothers you. That's the best way to receive any attention you feel is necessary.

If I understand it correctly, this type of material is allowed, if posted in a manner like this:

"Click here to see the tradegies of war"

instead of

"I'm so happy to see those american pigs die. Click here to see and celebrate too!"

and there in lies the problem.

Videos that glorify death in any form, no matter creed, race, religion, sexuality etc will not be tolerated on these forums and members who post such videos will get suspended.

Videos that show actual death, no matter creed, race, religion, sexuality etc will also now not be allowd to be posted so that no one can use an 'that was shown with no cheering in the background' kind of excuses.

Death for what ever reason is not pleasant and human beings killing other human beings is just wrong, no matter how anyone trys to justify it.

Who has the right to say if one man should live whilst another dies?

No one!

Also, any post from any member of these forums that is along the lines of

'yes american pigs die in iraq!' will also earn the poster a suspension.

You can of course report/debate over these issues, as long as it's only for the purpose of reporting/debating the issue.


Further comments on this are welcome so that we can put together some basic guidelines for the PDD.

I really did not want to do this as the PDD on the whole is pretty much self governing but with the recent influx of 'helicopter crash' videos etc, these basic guidelines will need to be brought in.

Neo are you upset with your children behaving badly?


Posted by shaolin_Z on Feb-12-2007 21:19:

I don't see how any of that warrants a suspension or a ban when there's much more disgusting discussion here about who to bomb or invade next, sometimes with fairly racist/bigoted undertones. That's more repulsive than any video of anyone getting killed. This is nothing more than cencorship of what bothers some people here. There's alot I don't like, doesn't mean I'm going to complain about it every time it happens. The only time I do contact Neo is when it really is pure prejudice. A reality of war is a reality of war. People ought to get upset over it.


Posted by metalgearsolid on Feb-12-2007 21:22:

Give absolute power and he will abuse it. We need more than just one mod here. Neo doesn't listen though. He is too wicked.


Posted by shaolin_Z on Feb-12-2007 21:25:

Anyways, most of the people who're complaining about this with requests for bans or whatever are the ones who never really contribute anything to PDD themselves other than trolling different threads with nonconstructive rants or pure opinion backed up by nothing factual. If you want me to name a few, I can, but I'd rather not. Most of these people starting posting on the unmoderated PDD after Lira stepped down from his position as Mod. I don't really think that's a coincidence eigther since now they know they can get away with it and annoy the crap out of people without having to argue a single point.


Posted by metalgearsolid on Feb-12-2007 21:26:

Put Lira back as mod? Or perhaps you would be better?


Posted by shaolin_Z on Feb-12-2007 21:32:

I would not make a good Mod, at least not these days. I've been spouting too many obsenities myself after having to deal with a barrage of them along with ridicule from a few poster here who never address a single point in my post but respond with ad hominens instead. Having Lira again would be great, although I already sort of asked him. He seems to have his hands full with other stuff.

Well desperate times calls for desperate measures:make me the second mod

In case of emergency, I'd sure love to help, but I'm worried about my constant long breaks (which is the reason why I stepped down). Often, I stay away for 3 or 6 months I wonder whether having no mod at all is worse than having an inactive mod


Posted by shaolin_Z on Feb-12-2007 21:38:

I'd be too tempted to ban all the NeoCons here who glorify death, destruction, conquest, and domination under the banner of freedom and democracy.

*points finger at you and moves it side to side*

I would be a good Mod because I wouldn't close threads unless people have a problem with it and then I would become arbiter. And decide whether the thread has to be closed or not. Than I would also suspend people better than Neo(I love you bro). Also Im nearly always on TA-I should get a life-which is one the major reasons why I should be mod. Have a problem, pm me, and I will make my move in lightning pace.

hhmm... you know what?

Neo, could you ask Swamper and the other mods whether they mind having me just momentarily? If they're okay with it (and the pdd'ers agree), then I can take care of things here for a while

(and then, if you decide to replace me in the future for someone with more time to mod, I'd be okay with it)

That was my point of contention.

Yes, it's war however, it's the manner in which it was posted I had issue with.
Some of us have friends and or family involved so in general, it just rubs a lot of us the wrong way.

It's is factual? Absolutely.
HOWEVER if people really wanted that much information, they have every right to research it themselves without some yahoo parading up and down the street with a big banner (essentially rubbing it in our face). It's especially annoying when they have absolutely no direct connection with it other than whatever anti-disestablishment complex they're fulfilling for themselves...

That would be cool.
You're definitely one of the more sane around here

So what that one thread of star-traveller's had that Iraqi death crap, I dont support it either and if that deserved suspension oh well thats not my discussion. But does that condone closing all his threads? Thats dumb. Many of his other threads have nothing to do with this. I am taking a break from this lame forum shit. Apart from a few good guys, the rest are just idiots. I'll let you live a happy life of ignorance for the time being until I decide if ever to come back to this shithole.
