theres absolutely no doubt that what he did was stupid and wrong ... but i really find it hard to imagine that a mod of all people would send an IM for someone to check out his battle without for some reason thinking it was acceptable cus you would get exposed immediately for it ... im not sure what got into this guys head thinking it was okay but i feel like he must have or he wouldnt have done something so blatantly retarded .. then again .. i tend to give people more credit than they deserve cus lots of people are just retards but anyway
i dunnno though .. if hes workin hard and doing good for the site than a warning seems fine .. at this point if he does anything even remotely wrong at this point hes gone .. and thats all that matters really

I don't really like how it was handled behind closed doors. There should have been a thread made explaining the reasons for X-Cal being only given a warning, for which I'd most likely have accepted.

Imo.. xcal made a mistake thinking that as a mod he was allowed to remind an fvc member of a battle he posted on the fvc threads...in which case it was his..he has never been a mod before and sometimes shit like this may seem obvious to others but maybe he simply wasnt sure because of his new position..imo hes trying to help out the site and this brain fart shouldnt condemn the good...warning should suffice. After this tho... xcal u HAVE ZERO EXCUSES...

Lemme ask u this then.. if you were a straightlaced cop who tried to uphold the law as best u can.. but was having extreme financial hardships to where ur children wife were suffering and during a raid found a large amount of money hidden that only your partner knew about... he took some and offered u some as well. Noone would ever know..what would u do?

I obviously see where you're going with this, but it's BS because you're entering too many factors that aid to the side of which one would take the money.

Being a lowly paid government worker with a wife and child that was physically suffering in no way can be equated to being a mod on letsbeef and not knowing one of the most clear f*cking rules it has to offer, sorry mate.

I mean if this was the first time dude had ever broken a rule a warning would be fine, THAT'S what warnings are for. To WARN people who don't know the rules. But when you get banned for something, it's not like it's just going to slip your mind. You don't just get banned for a website for something then come back and say oopsie and do it again saying that you forgot that it was a rule. How the fuck do you mistake something you've been banned for? The hell kind of logic did you guys even use when you conjured this bullshit?


It was a mistake. That's the point, and the entire reason he deserves to catch an infraction. He made a mistake, and he broke the rules. When you break the rules, you get infracted. Am I wrong in anything that I said in the last three sentences?

I'd geniunely like to know, because if I ever do this shit "mistakingly" and catch an infraction for it I'm going to fucking explode.


That's just my 0.2 cents, though. Meh.

This. Pissing off the people in charge isn't w/o consequences anymore.
