anon_98513 saysGoran_K saysYou can use the word libtard all you want as long as it’s not directed at someone personally.
Ok:
“Libtards are ruining the country.”
Not ok:
“You are a clueless fucking Libtard.”
While ‘you libtards’ or anything along those lines is perfectly acceptable, because err, well fuck I don’t know.
Show me the post.

Pretty much every post ever made by TPB for starters.

Patrick allowed a few posters to be so beyond rude and disruptive that it’s ridiculous to ask that all of a sudden, everyone else change course.

Maybe Patrick now wants a site where people are NOT vulgar, rude, and obnoxious.
I could be wrong about the vulgar part.
@patrick Do you consider vulgarity uncivil?
I do.

So the actual problem isn’t the policy, it’s that you don’t understand the policy.
Or more accurately you’re plying at being obtuse because you think it makes a point(it doesn’t)

No, because the “rules” are not remotely applied even-handedly. The mere fact that you’ve popped up to chip in pretty much underscores my point given your posting history.
patrick Do you consider vulgarity uncivil?
Not necessarily. Vulgarity can be good natured. Consider AF. Usually vulgar, but rarely if ever uncivil.

He is a good barbarian. I like him.

I agree. He's opposite of me on the political spectrum, but he is by far the funniest poster on Patrick.net.
I see quite a few have him(her?) on ignore, and I think they are missing out.

So far I think the new rules are working. The deleting of personal attacks seems to be working a lot better than “uncivil”.
However certain members are still having a hard time understanding the new rule. I’ve had to delete 5 straight personal attacks from errrc.
Should we institute a 24 hour ban for repeated offenses? Like being deleted 3-4 times and warned with no improvement?
