This is getting ridiculous. Dan is being made out to be some sort of victim in this, when he is the one who has caused the issue in the first place. The flag was removed from his profile weeks ago and he was warned by the forum department not to keep adding it back. It was then removed a further three times before we thought that enough was enough, which is what led to the dismissal.

For those saying that I'm rubbish, unfair or whatever other insult you want to try and throw my way - I don't care. The decision was a joint decision between general management and we discussed it before taking any action. If you seriously think that I've been making all these decisions on for the past year then you are mistaken.

no chris, you and your moderators made it into an issue by acting on supposed "offence" which was probably people just wanting to get at me when you should have investigated whether the flag actually merited accusations against it, which as @Ms.Aquamarine; pointed out simply doesn't. I may find the EU flag/LGBT rainbow/whatever offensive yet i don't cry like a baby to moderators because someone has something in their profile i don't like. i'd - rightly - be laughed at.

In addition you now don't even know your own rules as you're removing official US state flags from my profile and giving me warnings. it's very silly which is why the rule should be overturned, just admit the issue wasn't investigated properly and there's no harm done. i won't even feel the need to put the flag up again.

The complaints came from users that have most likely never even spoke to you, so they would have no reason to try and get you in trouble. Either way, we know enough about the flag and the attention is has got in the news recently to make the decision that it isn't allowed. You chose to ignore this rule, which is what caused the issue.

I know the rule on the flag and the removal of the other flags has been nothing to do with me. I have let the moderators know which flags need to be removed now.

[wixard]

didnt you say you would leave if it got removed again?

such a shame cya!

[-:Undertaker:-]

you've now let them know, oh right.

good to see you've thought all this properly through. :rolleyes:

Lmao there was no reason for normal moderators to know before today because nobody was plastering it across the forum. Get over it Dan, the flag is banned and if you carry on then you soon will be too.

that's what ---MAD--- used to say too when everyone was pointing out what was wrong to him.

but he knew better than the forum.

Except the difference is I'm not making these decisions on my own. If I wanted to ban you for pissing me off then I would have done it by now. The only reason you'll get banned is for breaking the rules, and thats the only reason anyone will get banned on the forum so don't try and make out that you're being unfairly threatened.

Brb dropping you out of the database so no one thinks you ever existed.

or just make the rules up as you go along which is what you've just done and which is what MAD did when he brought in his 'negativity' rule. two peas in a pod.
