Don't think so, no. Have concrete proof of that happening all the time on this board, yes. People are that petty. The normal response is "I got points, why didn't XXXXXXX?"

Of course, we then reiterate that if you have a problem with a post, report it and we'll take a look, and viola, people go searching to "prove their points" or light us up for bias. Then we have a heap of **** to wade through, because someone else can't own up to the fact that they, personally, broke a rule.

Gets old pretty fast.


Tell ya what. The next time you're driving 85 in a 65 along with a few other cars and you get singled out and popped for it, try using the argument "but he was doing it too" and see how far it gets you with an LEO. Might feel unfair, and I'm not saying it isn't, but what do you really expect to happen? "Oh, sorry, I'll let you go and get him" or "Oh, let me pull him over too so you have the same punishment"? That's not how the real world works.

If you are referring to the points system, that's only 3 years old or so. Before then there wasn't any disciplinary action other than editing and slaps on the wrist. Eventually admins would just ban people.
There used to be like 4 words in the filter... and nobody blew a gasket if you dodged once in a while to make a point or posted a pic with a word etc. etc.. the crybabys made it 1000% gayer

why not add any word that is possibly offensive into the swear filter and then, if someone works around them, they get points. If it is not on the swear filter, and it offends someone, add it. If a whole post is nothing but *** ***** ** ****** ***, then tht person needs to learn how to properly use the english language.

*sigh*


It hasn't significantly changed at all, maybe added 3-5 real words in and a bunch of dodgy ones. It's the same damn filter. Now you get points for being immature and dodging it. That's the only difference.
