Are Moderators Allowed to Encourage Others to Harm Themselves or Others?

[warpedskydiver 0]

Seems like there is more than a double standard on this forum.

One particular moderator seems to want to wish harm on a certain poster.

So I ask, should this be allowed?

Or should he have to face that person and actually have to come up with the nerve to say what he really meant?

See the flame-thrower thread...

edit to add: personally, I think things were taken out of context...

So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh
Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright
'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life
Make light!

WTF???

I've seen the flamethrower thread, and I still don't get what someone is getting so upset about.

i think you're blowing this way out of proportion. if not, then is would seem that speaker's corner has ceased to be fun for you.

Question: What would your physical response be to someone who suggests something to you which you perceive to be dangerous and likely don't understand?

Poll:

Do people who repeatedly demonstrate explosive behaviors and constantly make veiled physical threats have:

a.) tiny pen___s? (I think I was trying to type pens here )
b.) tiny brains?

*Poll choices are not necessarily mutually exclusive.

I find it amusing that you believe that I would be the sort of person to fly off the handle.

I may play with toys that you seem to think are too dangerous but I never compromise safety for myself or others.

As for your statements I find them to be childish and wreaking of penis envy.

More of the ceasing to be fun...

OK, I just read the flamethrower thread. That one, combined with this one, make it pretty clear that it's just another example of you and RushMC being paranoid. Each of you, and certainly the two of you as a team, need to be reminded that this isn't real life - it's just the Internet. Push away from the keyboard and go out and get some fresh air and sunshine.

[billvon 3,091]

I've been known to do that. Heck, I've encouraged people to skydive! I've even told someone how to (gasp) brew beer. With alcohol and everything. Now if that won't kill you I don't know what will.

Here, you'll need this.

Do you want to have an ideagasm?

[rehmwa 2]

You're nuts. You post a thread about using a flamethrower at the DZ

1 - It's just mockery and fun

or 2 - you mean it


So 1 - if it's mockery and fun, then BV's response is just responding in kind. The whole thread is a joke.

or 2 - you start a thread about a tool that can damage people and someone posts the next highest level - so you both are guilty

I could care less, it the poster is serious or not, I don't ever take their notes as serious.


I do enjoy Andy jumping on you and the Rushmc here though. Typical bias against two people with opposing politics - even though it's a thread that isn't related to politics. Any chance to get a dig in.....

Not actually. The point of Speakers Corner to contain the shit people cause. A subtle difference lost on some.

In the flamethrower thread, it was RushMC who first responded to BillVon: "Is this a PA? A literal one?? ", to which Warped responded, "Yes it was, he [BillVon] offered advice that would lead to someones death.", followed immediately by, "What the fuck is your problem Bill?" It is what it is.

OK, pushing away.

Think of all the fun we can have, with this precedent now set.

When someone asks for advice about rainstorms, we can tell them to go stand outside in the middle of a field and hold a metal pole up in the air.

How to check if a gun is unloaded? Point it at someone and pull the trigger.

Best of all: student skydiver advice! Now that's going to be really funny!

[billvon 3,091]

Exactly. When someone asks what they should do with some extra money they came across, we can tell them to buy guns and go skydiving! Maybe even BASE jumping (although surely no one here would be so stupid as to do that!)

That's signature worthy material right there. That's better than Skymama complimenting someone's scrotum.
