he was pretty over the top all around this time. Honestly if some one has a little overt racism but comes off as ironic about it I think it can be genuinely funny. If they're striving to be actively offensive in every. single. post. that's taking it too far.

like I said in irc before fucking mulch fucking autobanned me for the 10th fucking time in my life, racist doesn't count as a personality.

edit: as an answer to your actual question, I've been fired from a lot of jobs, and there's always just a point in time when both parties can feel it. There really doesn't need to be a last straw, everyone knows it's coming. It's been brewing for months and the point of no return was probably passed a while before the action was actually taken.

I fucking hate getting fired.

you were there nignog, you prolly remember it better than I do. I told Dan that sage said something rather benign in a mod thread, dan made a big fuss about there being a secret section of the board for mods and wouldn't let it go.

well if it's any consolation you're not the only IRC mod casualty.

What do those mods talk about in there anyways, final solutions?!?!

Wow really guys?

He just came off to me like he was trying to make this place interesting. Shake things up a bit. He clearly wasnt trolling just to be a douche.

Who is actually getting offended at trolls in the year 2012? For fucks sake people use the ignore button.

Interesting telling you got there....

Long story short: Sharing things that aren't to be shared.
(And as I understand it's telling, what was passed on wasn't even what I actually said, skewed in a bad light, when that isn't where I even took the concern)

The inevitable is what happened I think. It's ok when folks aren't up to speed on Yahooka now vs Yahooka from 06, so we help let people know it's a little different around here now...

Basically we let him know and let him know and let him know and let him know and let him know and let him know....

It wasn't like it was 'toeing the line' stuff either, and when it got worse/weird instead of better gravity took hold of the hammer.

Talked with him in IRC a few times and tried to help him get a grasp even, and I thought it would get more mellow, or at least that fine line between funny/crass/tasteful....

I had hope.

Mostly how many chances left you buggers have

Nothing much really, honestly.

When we did the board shift/rearrange, we talked extensively about that and how it might play out.

When members have tech issues, getting a hold of TC and RE.

Reported posts/Spam most of all....

How to help returning members, like SouthFlo and HP, who don't really integrate well back into Yahooka-present, get up to speed about what the norms and climate is around here.

No Illuminati stuff....

Over all, we're very transparent.

Other than reports and spam which arise, you all pretty could guess what we're talking about in there if there has been a rash of bad posts/member 'antics', etc....

But more than anything we talk about how much of a hard on all have for You, Terry. (seeing if you are still reading )

I for one don't really like the 'over the boards' approach, I MUCH prefer a 'WITH the boards' way, where you get in the community as a member, because well.... that is REALLY all we are.
