Docked fpor qouting one time....

What is the deal withthe rediculouse over policing of stupid things when I am seeing more and more completely innapropriate and rediculouse things being posted on here. Qouted one guy one time in one thread and was docked 20 points, no warning just a doc. What gives. The abuse of the limited power of the mods is getting rediculouse, I know a couple of the mods and they are real cool, but whats the deal, no warning, no release that I saw regaurding qouting, and if its a problem then why is the function available at all. This seems completely redundant to me. I thought this sight was about denying ignorance, not participating in stupidity.

Also how the heck do I get docked for somthing so trivial, but i see the regurgitation of stupid posts like the zombie invasion this and, I'm a wharewolf that. I mean come on.

20 points?

Sheesh, what did you do quote a whole post?

Isn't that kinda redundant?

Well if I had as many hours to spend here as you have had I wouldn't care as much but as you can see I have an outside life and haven't emassed 9000 ats points as a result. Thanks for the insight though.

I stand corrected I thought the deffinition of excesive was to do it over and over as in multiple times not once by mistake and get nailed for it, ut thanks and I also see no one is raising an eybrow about the cursing in response to my post pretty swell.

Cool hook me up with your points.

as the question has been answered, I'm closing the thread.

in the future, please direct a question such as this to the ats issues thread or contact a moderator via the complaint button or the u2u system.

thanks.
