I've received another complaint about one of the few members that actually do cause problems here...I'm going to make it quick and simple with a couple of DON'T or you'll be fired...
1. No racist comments of any kind whatsoever or you will be fired instantly. 2. No comments that make fun of disabled people. 3. Things that I'm obviously missing from this list, that are obviously wrong. These will be at mine and Chris' discretion after the act happens.
This can happen through AIM and brought to me or Chris or it can happen on the forum. Do it, and you'll be fired.

I hate white people! But that's okay, because I'm white.
I do agree though. Ignorant, racist comments are disgusting.

Bad idea. No Fun League.
I like this league because it's one where we can leave all types of reason with little to no discussion about whats appropriate and not appropriate. Now, we all have to watch our backs in the face of the mighty, angry hands of Cyrux and Gus.
Thus, the league has lost all personality.

I'm not sure if Tao was joking or not, but...I agree with him.
EDIT: This does not mean I condone or support those sort of things.

We're certainly not a very censored league at all. You can say pretty much wherever you want, but we have to draw the line somewhere, and here it is.

i would like to state the only reason this thread is being made is because of the new Warriors GM who obviously has previous ties with aflag and must've cried to him last night/today about my AIM convo with him, what he probably didnt reveal is his constant and random use of the word "fagget" (spell check doggie) towards me, but im sure that never came up and isnt important

Whatever happened to the old nuggets GM? I still have no idea whatsoever. He completely disappeared one day and I haven't seen him since.

Technically wouldn't calling someone a faggot be worse? Since that's somewhat implying that they take dick in their ass, whereas "nigger" just means their skin tone is black, which isn't bad. Banning it implies that black skin is bad, which is actually racist.

Both are words that are used, faggot is just more acceptable for some reason. Neither should be used, but I use faggot myself, but would never use the other. Not sure if Wolves or Braves is black, but if they arent it tends to be worse in most people's minds.

If one isnt allowed the other shouldnt be either.. to me if these are being posted on the boards its a no no.. if its in aim, just block them or don't talk to them, and if that isnt enough then perhaps further action could be looked at.

the funny thing about the warriors is he claimed he was blocking me then came back 10 minutes later to call me a fagget

I agree, get at someone on AIM or through PMs, but nothing public on the boards.

I agree, as long as it just isnt an attack on AIM. I have had a GM in a league just go off on me because I didnt want to trade, and that isnt cool. I did just block him though, and that works

I hope everything is okay with him.... Well, he never left EBL. I had to find a replacement GM after he wasn't around for a month or so.

I had to find a replacement GM after he wasn't around for a month or so. By leaving, I meant after he stopped posting and visiting the boards. Which, in my book, is not "officially" leaving, but it is leaving nonetheless.

You seriously can't say that "faggot" and "nigger" don't have equal to the same meaning. Just because one is said more often than the other doesn't mean they're not the same level of offense.
