This is waht I've been saying. They ALREADY don't get shat upon.

not saying you're right or wrong, but i'm confident the GG crowd would adamantly disagree.

They'd be wrong. Most of this isn't even opinion, they empircially do not got insulted for it. They may not like the response it does get, but unless you think that means that we should be forced to care....


i think what's happening here is that what passes for a non-insult for most of the CPL is still very insulting for some.

consider "GTFO".


GTFO is the only exception I can think of, because that does get tossed around a lot (its half-joking, but you can't blame a newbie for not knowing that) but even that isn't so common until someone roctronic's.

This, emphatically.


Yea Catullus knows that now, it jsut took him a while to reach the evidence. He's been responding to every post that like five of us have been making. Quite a feat tbh


Still needs to speed it up imo

The forum rules do not exist to be applied 100%, they exist so when a mod has to ban Random Dickhead #5352 they can shut them the fuck up by quoting the rules at them. Can we please stop discussing if CPL follows the rules because that is not what the rules are for.

good point... and this is precisely what happens in real-life, as well.
the only reason why i've been stressing the legal angle is to affirm that the GG crowd is indeed correct in their claim that the CPL routinely flouts the rules. yes, that's a completely irrelevant claim... but it's still true.

Certainly, but not nearly to the degree that they would have you believe or that the general perception suggests. No one has claimed otherwise, I don't think.


so wait... we're agreeing that the CPL "routinely flouts the rules"?

and then the counter-defense is that "everyone else is doing it"?


There is no counter defense. Just the fact that you can argue that the rules are flouted or you can argue tha tthey aren't. But if you argue that they are, you need to take into account this isn't exclusive to CPL because it literally happens in every forum. Yet we're having this conversation about CPL. So obviously it isn't due to the rule-flouting by itself.

But there really aren't many examples of "CUNT CUNT CUNT CUNT CUNT CUNT" or specific personal attacks...
And GTFO is posted so much in every single forum that I fail to see how it's an issue


i'll beg to differ on the former...

and GTFO only really became universal a few seasons ago.

Well, I did say I'm fine with a GG forum. Or, as Vando proposed (also known as Vando Slayer of GG Threads), a moratorium on posting in new ppls"Hey, we're new" and "GG" threads.
Of course I don't think CPL is perfect or blameless or perfectly smooth-skinned with lavender sweat and taut sweater muffins, I just think hiding behind forum rules while other league forums blatantly break the same rules is ridiculous. The numerous mod raids, the obvious anti-CPL bias, CPL miscast as FFA pt.2, etc., is what bothers me.

stereotypes are (by definition) untrue... or, at least, non-representative. but there's also always a kernel of truth to any stereotype, even if the original perception is now completely defunct.
i think i'll cite boltz v. reality on this one.

Do you really think this is an argument worth pursuing?


of course.

boltz remains fairly confused about why he has the reputation he does... to the point that he thinks there's just this anti-boltz sentiment out there and that "ban boltz" is just a fad.

and yes, he's partially right. but he's also partially wrong.

GTFO has been around WAY before GLB was even thought of.

fine, yes, i get it.

but that's also irrelevant, of course. the goal here should be figuring out if there's a structural way to get rid of people like roctronic... or to at least contain/deflect them so that you don't constantly end up having random mods blundering through banning people.
