    It's not a democracy.

    And your completely correct, oppression and autocracy are clearly the only true systems.

    Wrong tense. In the past, of course we were. That's why there was the Che's Fantasyland Revolt and all that stuff.

    For instance, you remember when Link was banned on orders from Stalin, even though he was not only innocent, but found innocent by the modship.

    He wasn't innocent, he did post rule breaking content. Saying you're oppressed on a forum is kinda silly, especially this one. 1 mod adding someone to a usergroup without informing the rest of us is hardly oppression.

    Guys, to solve this, we need to throw money into democracy. Who ever pays the most to the site gets the most votes. Sounds fair?

    Go to school? What exactly do you mean?

    No he didn't. He was still in line with the rules.

    That was more the straw that broke the camels back.

    He actually did break the rules, it would have still been an infraction if he wasn't banned.

    The fact that more then one person feels oppressed on an internet forum started by a Canadian who records himself playing video games is well... you feel oppressed on an internet forum started by a Canadian who records himself playing video games, I think you can finish that statement on your own.

    napoleon needs to get the fuck out of the site once and for all. the site is perfect exactly the way it is so this idea is irrelevant. and i have half a mind to track napoleons I.P the next time he creates a new account and give it to the mods. he is breaking more and more rules. as my grandfather said "when you're in a hole, stop digging".

    We have his I.P. the trouble is you can simply change your i.p or use a proxy and we're none the wiser.

    Well not exactly. We kinda knew that Kennedy was using a proxy and I knew that it was Napoleon. We were just waiting for him to slip up. We can find out.

    kara... I never said i was better than anyone else. The one thing that makes me smarter than napoleon is i know why rules are made. No matter what you say this is still napoleon's idea, we can't change the site based off of a banned user's ideas.

    Napoleon isn't a great actor, which is a benefit to the modship as otherwise they'd have to play Sherlock Holmes.

    he needs to realise that creating multiple accounts is not the way to get back on the site

    He's created more account than you guys think. I usually IP check new members with suspicious names, and for the two weeks I've been doing that, five of them have been Napoleon accounts he never got to post on.
