Not gonna lie, I forgot all about Fort Knox and assumed that's what was intended in the first place

Well, we have "Random Politics and Religion" and "Random FFXI Politics and Religion". I think it's time for a "Random FFXIAH.com Politics and Religion" thread.

Clearly, your listening/reading skills amount to nothing. Anywho, ending that particular discussion.
I read and responded to your post sentence-by-sentence.

Clearly you have no desire to stick to transparency, and you'd rather hide behind excuses and back out when questioned.

Ah, the old days of deregulated FFXIAH.com, when a man could post whatever he liked without repercussion, all manner of cutthroats made their coin assaulting noobs and more ***flew than the inside of a chimpanzee enclosure.

Then the pesky government, the mods, stepped forth and drove FFXIAH into the darkness. We'll never have another era like the golden age of FFXIAH thanks to the chains placed upon us all by liberal posters and their obsession with being PC.

When the liberal posters become the shining beacon of civility in forums, your analogy will have meaning. In the meantime:

Amounts to nothing. You can't disallow behavior based on history, if it's ok for anyone else it's ok for them.

Says who? Since when is repeated behavior disallowed, especially when warnings have been issued?

Except.. KingNobody made ONE post regarding this. Going back 6 pages, the only post KN made was the response to Jet. Is he meant to ignore everything Jet posts, solely because Jet is a fragile little snowflake?

He wasn't warned about this topic. I assume he wasn't told he can never respond to Jet. He made ONE post without any insults, personal or otherwise. He stated his point and made a hyperbolic example to underline it.

If the problem is Jet potentially responding to him, surely KN shouldn't be the issue here? What kind of moderation censors someone because someone else will be shitty about it?

Someone is seriously White Knighting for KN. This is amazing on so many levels that I can barely stand it.

I don't care about KN. I've never talked to him outside the forums, have never PMed him, and have rarely posted in direct communication with him. I care about consistant unbiased moderation, because it's been a very hot topic here for the last month and from what I can see, this is anything but.

Eh it is what it is bro, he's banned because the mods told him to stop and he didn't stop. We all goad everyone into arguments on here because well "duty calls". I guess it just means don't hurt someone's feels enough or else the mods will ban you.

1. Six pages where? Here or through all of KN's recent posts? You may be shocked to hear, but not all arguing and bickering happens in P&R, even if it is the biggest cesspool on this website.

2. And now you're ignoring the PM feature that exists. From my memory, KN and Jet have a long history of antagonizing each other. Chances are there was an agreement made with the mods to lay off of each other if they wanted to continue posting. Frankly, if this is something that happened, it's none of your damn business.

Also, Mods, is it a rule that you have to make all warnings public? Just curious here.

Quite the opposite. It's don't try to antagonize people and then cry foul and complain to a mod time and time again to a point after 3yrs you are told if you attempt it again there will zero tolerance regarding your actions.

No, not necessarily. We usually send a private message. However, with transparency in mind, we are starting become more public with warnings and other actions.

I swear Jet and KN are like children throwing snowballs at eachother while screaming and shivering "IM GONNA CALL THE MODS" repeatedly until someone passes out from sheer excitement.

Guys, its called blocking eachother. It's a thing. It works.
