Rash, can you or one of the other MODS tell us the 'type' of ban that Oscar is under? A forever ban? A "you gotta get your shit together, dude, and show us you've done that" ban? What up?

Rein....much love...
The most I can say right now is that his fate is still under review.

Fair enough.

Manly hugs back atcha!

So - based on that, I would say let the voting continue. Oscar, seems you is STILL in SCHOOL. Be a good PUPIL and OPEN YOUR EYES DOOOOOOOOOOOD.

AWwwwwweeee the poor putty tat fall down ......and go.....BOOM ......What???....that was funny......maybe not to Oscar, but i gotta kick out of it.

Oscar, dude... your own your own....i am just bearly hanging on myself. So i'll just stay nuetral. I do know a few wanted me banned, and i'm sure still do. If i am not mistaken.....Oscar was one of the lenching mob fueling the fire on the ban DEW smackdown. GOTTA LOVE KARMA.

I don't think anyone here really wants ya banned, Not even Synthvet. I also don't see the community as folks who hold much of a grudge. (actually learned that from EVE). Then take into consideration that Proc is about as mean as a goldfish. (i mean that in a good way Proc.. The world has too many pitbulls now ) I would say your ban is most likely a TEMP kinda deal.

did I forget to use the sarcasm font??

it's funny how the total votes sum 99%...

True! I believe in Karma...and not holding grudges.
...but some folk do, dewdew.

re: Oscar, I think he's pretty remorseful. House arrest sound right to me.

Sorry Rashdog. You've been bumping heads with FC since he first entered this site. He made claims then that he has repeated
dozens and dozens of times over and over again. Why should he curb his behavior to please you when you, and all mods are selective of enforcement of site rules, completely set aside all and any site rules when it might impinge on your fun, refuse to clearly state, and enforce site rules, allow site rules to be set aside for friends, and then when someone like him who did not manage to make buddy buddy with the mods acts the least bit out of line they get jumped on. He's been making the point for a long long time and he is right. His misbehavior was a protest that completely stemmed from his indignation at the misbehavior of site administrators, and again..he is in the right.
Rashdog should never have been the mod to specifically confront Oscar. They've been at each other's throats since he joined psc.
This action was more than inappropriate, it was hypocritical.
We are well past the point where the new site owner needs to set aside the old mods, and the newer ones that don't wanna do the job and start from scratch. We need all new mods, mods that actually represent the users of this site and not just the old hangers on from years ago, and we need a set of site rules that is clearly defined and enforced without favoritism.

I say we give him the three strikes rule:.

He's on two now right?

Strike three, he's done son!

So Oscar's laying flat on the executioners table with the IV in his arm, and the clock ticks, ticks, towards twelve and everyone is in the observation area staring at the red phone hanging there inside the chamber. Will the Governor call?

i think oscar's worth saving. i plan to do a bit of CPR on him... where are my paddles now?? he should be good as new now The patient lives.

I think Oscar has had enough of a scare - I got caught by the Rickroll the first time, so I was just feeling like: "man, we passed that station a long time ago..."
it's not funny anymore.

And actually, I was more refering to him using an alarmist thing to make us push that link. Because the trouble of that would be, that next time there really is something to be worried about, nobody would trust Oscar anymore to tell the truth anyway.

And then I did not read that thread anymore. Never thought it would be a sackable offence though. More like OK, here is a warning, a timeout from entering - and then back in the trenches.

sorry dude i just thought w/ dp asking the same thing... that people were getting confused w/ it.

dont know all the story behind, but I would be kind of sorry, if oscars work would be banned from psc forever. maybe it would be enough, like a second-level-warning, to ban him temporarly, or to disable his account to post any links in the forums.

Let him in again, in a week or so. I didn't experience any troubles with that Rick Roll thing (maybe it's browser dependant?), but others obviously did.
Reading the conversation between NGSP and Oscar it seems like he realises that he should not even try to do anything similar again, which (I guess) is the important thing here. However, IF he does it again, I'd go for a perm-ban without a doubt.
