so it's for something that wasn't even against the posted rules
kinda like the purpose of such a plugin: "get rid of" troublesome users without having to justify an actual, visible ban. as far as the user's concerned, FA or their internet is just not working.
if this is how they want to operate, why even have rules?
would you like to know more?
Fuck this shit. I'm braiding my hair again and rocking Nyabinghi. Emporer Selassie I for admin. It's the only solution.

Questions for FA staff:
Who banned accountability?
Why was accountability banned for something that wasn't against the forum rules?
Thanks.

Fuck this. Unless I get some solid evidence about Accountability's wrongdoings being on more than just a hunch in 15 minutes, he'll be unbanned.

I just noticed something:
SummerCat claims accountability was ALMOST banned for something, then he GETS banned for being an ALT ACCOUNT. If that was the case, then he wouldn't be ALMOST BANNED.
In the words of the Chewbacca defence:
IT DOESN'T. MAKE. SENSE.
Inb4 I get banned again for pointing this bullcrap out.

The short-and-sweet is that, I installed it to test on the live forum as another level of punishment to apply to particular users where a straight-out ban would be taken far worse in a particular situation. I choose those two users in particular as they were going to be banned anyway for other reasons and wanted to see if they could be subtly persuaded to leave as a ban in that situation might incite further drama and make things worse.

I think Ratte should take the spot of whoever is the fucker that is abusing their power, because goddamn it's obvious she can do her job as a admin a million times better than the fuck who is doing this.
Seriously the person doing this, if you can retroactively change the rules to ban someone, why not just get rid of the rules altogether and change it to, "If I don't like you, I'll ban you".

Hi,Welcome To Last WeekI see you're new here. Let my school you on FA's rules:
1. There are a shitload of rules. Really, the Declaration of Independence has more clearly laid out laws.
2. The whims, base emotions and hormonal fluctuations of someone with authority takes precedence over the above.
3. Hah, just fuckin' with ya. There are no rules! Except the above

I remember you saying that Rossyfox was Accountability posting under a proxy or tor. What reason exactly did you have to believe this, as it's pretty clear that's how the two were chosen? Additionally, is that the reason you were going to ban them both, or is there some other reason aside from that?

Folks, don't shit all over summercat, he's only been acting unprofessionally like any good incompetent admin would have! it's a furaffinity tradition.

No, Now here is something you should take to heart. You need to quit. No. You need to quit. Why? remember when I gave Summercat his list of of responses. You were the one I was talking about. It was obviously you. Who goes over peoples heads and does things on their property without permission. YOU. Who does things irrationally, without thinking, and always half asses it. YOU. Who has a history of doing these things. You do Carenath. You are responsible, and the only real rational decision you need to make now is to step down before you make this site worse.

This is why communication between staff members is really important
To prevent shit like this from going down
aaaa
Draconas (Today)
Carenath, for the sake of the community of FA you should quit. I belive that, with this, you've proven you don't have the maturity and conflict resolution skills to be an admin, by remaining one you will hurt the comunity with actions like this and damage peoples trust in the staff and site.
You tried to force out, by underhand, immature and secret methods, two people who AFAIK hadn't broken any rules: you just didn't like them.
Please, just go.
Draconas (Today), Nox Luna (Today), redfoxnudetoons (Today)
I thought you were one of the "mature" members of the FA/FAF administration but it would appear not. You didn't have to do this at all, just ban them if they must be don't be an asshole and try to be sneaky about it. I think it is way to easy to be banned here. But seriously, not cool. I'd say more but...I'll hold my tongue.
Actually no, I won't : Fuck you. I see members banned for no reason, they act as they normally do and they just are made to disappear. What is this?

Posting "You need to quit" does nothing, people. He obviously doesn't care what any of us say. It's not like we can overthrow him or something. He'll just keep being an admin and doing things that piss people off.
Draconas (Today)
Well I've got an explanation, sort of. Now I think we all deserve an apology, at least. Maybe nobody's going to come out of this majorly wronged, but please admit that this was the wrong thing to do.

We can always petition Carenath's removal.
redfoxnudetoons (Today)
Guys, I'm not sure Carenath technically can quit. To my knowledge, he is the physical owner of the FAF server, all the way in Ireland, so even if he does step down from the staff, he still owns the physical server for the forum. Unless there's some way to transfer all the data on that server to one of the servers in the FA datarack, he's not going anywhere.
Am I the only one who doesn't think it's a big deal? We have enough drama as it is and banning anyone tends to draw more, especially when it's someone who makes a point to be vocal about his opinion of the site. We are very sensitive about our staff turning into some sort of cruel overseers who delete posts with impunity.
The only mistake Carenath made was not being public about the decision; not an ethical problem, but a practical one, because there are one hundred and five users currently grandstanding in this thread.

Oh, there's certainly a way to do that. They could even use up another of their IP addresses to host it on a separate virtual machine, and expose the database port to the world, and leave the password in public view. Then they'd accidentally delete 10 days worth of posts.
