F&F policies?

I just have a simple question as to how F&F deals with some problems. My understanding is that F&F has a desire to help us over at our site. So there should be no trouble in telling me exactly how F&F would deal with a problem.

Lets say, for example, that someone came onto your site from a different site for the pure and only reason to post something meant to degrade your site. For example, what if they said:

"The leader of your site is a confessed hacker. Hacking is a personal property crime and is likely a felony in the state he lives, not to mention federal and international laws. By that reasoning this place would be run by a felon."

So on both an emotional and logical viewpoint, how exactly would this type of thing be handled?

An interesting point is that, dislike Wolf Bite as much as I will, he has done much to herd the unruly bunch at RWL into a more respectable community. Iron fist in a velvet glove you might say.

What!? I get edited for simply requesting an answer on a hypothetical question?

Which by the way, no one answered

I'd say that A: The name is FAF, if you please, not F&F. Though the second doesn't look to bad, either...

And B: If you'd like to bring criminal charges against Beatles, I'm sure you know how to go about it. Since he was never tried - let alone convicted - in court of law for the crime you accuse him of, I don't see how you can be justified in calling him a felon.

Innocent until proven guilty, no?

Oh but you are so wrong. Read carefully, I have only stated an example, not any direct insult nor any statement. But it was considered wrong on this server when the same people have no problem doing the same in other places.
Lets say, for example, that someone came onto your site from a different site for the pure and only reason to post something meant to degrade your site. For example, what if they said:

"The leader of your site is a confessed hacker. Hacking is a personal property crime and is likely a felony in the state he lives, not to mention federal and international laws. By that reasoning this place would be run by a felon."
See no insult, but action was taken.

Please, the statement was meant to inflame and anger. That is why it was edited, and why I just edited your quote. Mod's reserve the right to edit what they view as deliberate flaming out of existence. An admin can overturn me if they wish.

So do I under stand this right. I am quickly considered wrong for the same things that are being done on RWL. I have used my admin power to insist that such actions stop being constantly done over and over and over. However, some of the staff here seem to have no respect for other people that do the same work they do. So again I ask how would F&F handle this problem.

There's a difference between what you have done and what they have done. Until you attacked them, NO ONE INSULTED YOU OR RWL. Anything you have construed as an insult is not meant that way.

Roger that devari.

No, that is the correct text. It was posted in the Lunch.

What you are doing here is solely in attempt to annoy certain people around the forum. That is to say, you come here solely with malace. Beatles' coments about the quality of RWL's code are not posted with that intent, at least not that I can see.

However, I have seen what you have posted, and to spite its intent I do not find it insluting of Beatles at all. If my fellow admins do not object, I will repost it.
(And alas, I've been outposted, good call Devari)

So then is that the response to my question. That if someone came here unwelcome they would be censored and jumped on with out even an attempt to ask politely first?

Ah, nevermind, then. I thought that was my paraphrase... Anyway, continue argument/debate/whatever this thing is going to be...
