This has to do with FPSC Forum behavior which is related to FPSC and does not belong in any of the other forums. It is in this note that as long as this thread does not receive excessive flaming or foul language that it is following the Forum Rules and is in coherence with the AUP.
First off, I have made this new thread to save an
old thread from being locked.
My post on that page that sparked the argument is

Follow the netiquette rules and be a kind netizen

These quotes are NOT intended to help other people understand what is going on, but rather insult the poster for having a few mistakes. It is worse when people feel that the post wasn't good enough as is, and add in ridiculous content just to be a 1337 translator. Worse is situations like this, where a person cares more about making these ‘translations’ rather then helping the person.[/quote]
Pallmanni does have a good point with his reference to
This Thread but there are far worse examples...
Here people had a stand off on who could write the 1337st longest translations. How about someone translate the Gettysburg Address and present it to a historical preservation association. They would take it as offensive, vulgar, ruthless slander. They don't understand the "joke", if you can call it that. So imagine how newbies feel.

noob slapping is a part of moderation, pally received a very small noob slap, just one day. You received a month. Others have been banned for large periods of time. To limit mods to simply locking or deleting offending threads is as saying that we should let the killers go with a slap on the wrist.
We all have our inner noob. Join the NJL, we have more fun!
I believe society is flawed; our notions on life, on child rearing, stem too far back to be of relevance in this day and time.
