The only reason Vince wasn't banned immediately is because it was such a one-sided thing and watching everyone tear him apart (especially Max) was pure comedy gold. Nobody was going to stumble onto this place and think "oh this is a place where racists hangout" just by viewing some shit that Vince posts, because everyone jumped on his case. Still, if he comes back and continues to post racist remarks, I'll be more than happy to ban his ass, cuz it gets old after a while.

Fucktard? "It's just a bullshit word. So you go on and stamp your form, sonny, and stop wasting my time. Because to tell you the truth, I don't give a shit."

It's the same way it's always been here Helm.

If I see someone making remarks that are against the rules of this board, I'll delete 'em and at the very least temporarily ban 'em. If I don't see someone making remarks but they do, well then I guess they got away with it. Lucky for them. I've always suggested that all of you help out and report problem posts to me. Some of you do, and I appreciate it. I work a full-time job. I write for I-Mockery which is another full-time job. I have martial arts classes and/or gym in the evenings. I play guitar. I have people that I like to hangout with on a regular basis.

In other words, I have only but so much time I can dedicate to scanning these boards for problems. So if ya don't like that "this post over here" gets deleted but "that one over there" doesn't, then do something about it. Report it to me instead of people slinging around words like "hypocrisy!" so easily.
