Moderate yourselves folks, you don't have to keep reading bullshit you don't want to, and you don't have to outsource the task to a "moderator".  Folks have better things to do than babysit us, ya dig?
Good idea, let's also take out the report to moderator button and have no rules lol

I am worried more so about the look of the board and it's future, especially now being detached from the official site.   I mean, honestly, these forums are about dead now with no 'official' home (bitcointalk.org who?) , so I guess the theory of "fuck it, deal with it yourself" is a decent attitude.  I dig.

Well, technically, insults are considered trolling, and trolling (on more than a few occasions) is a bannable offense.

If there's someone you'd like to be reviewed for banning, Theymos has the only and final call on that. PM him. Us mods have no ban power, and ban requests can come from anybody.
That is a logical way of thinking, these are Bitcoin forums, insults would be meant to distract from such discussions, thus is in fact trolling.

Noted about theymos, I think I seen that mentioned before but forgot about it.

No, I prefer the current policy of not banning someone over a single post (unless they are a newbie), only if the problem becomes a pattern.

If not one post, then how many occurrences?  Things like this are easily tracked with post history.  I can probably sit for five minutes and think of one or two people, that I enjoy a good portion of their posts, could easily and happily see gone because of retarded insults.

hahahha, wtf.  Perfect example.  I think that is enough posts, no?

They can have as many opinions on situations as they want, but the part where they just talk shit about someone is not Bitcoin Discussion, so does not need to be on the (non) Official Bitcoin Forums.

I'm with you on this one.  People should get a few strikes.

Hey, it could happen.

Easily too.

You want everyone to use that 'report to moderator' button, I assure you it will be used.

I fucking loooooooooooove trolls, but a good intelligent troll that can fuck with people.  The ones that are "you are a fookin morran duchhe" can be done away with easily, and should be.

Opinions should not be censored when in discussion on the topic of Bitcoin.  Not against members of the forum at all.  Scammers or not, no one needs to be name called on the god damn internet.  Seriously, what the fuck.  Damn children!

My suggestion, tattle telling Smiley

(Irony of last sentence on purpose, makes this post no less true)
