Dude, I am not in the mood for exchange of blames and going back and forth.

You have made your point and I said you should try to endorse more poems.

The reason you were banned is stated on your profile and note that rule 19 still stands as a rule on Nairaland

Can you state the exact rule I broke initially please

There are 21 rules

Which one did I break?

Rule No 2 states "Don't abuse, bully, deliberately insult/provoke, fight, or wish harm to any Nairaland member."

Dygeasy the Author clearly states

DISCLAIMER: every moniker being used to create a character is purely out of the participating writers' imagination. Nothing should be taken personal and it isn't to defame you (if your username is being used) if something negative is written about you. Its all part of the fun.

Advocating for the murder of a moniker in real life violates rule no2. Advocating for the murder within a work of fiction does not violate the rules

Would you ban a contributor to this project who decided to kill people off in his own chapter?


Also, Rule 19 states: "Don't create a new account when banned for breaking a rule. If you do, make sure we don't find out."

I am NOT satisfied that I have broken any rule, so I've logged in with an alt account.

Unfortunately Nairaland has no means of Arbitration,So I have to confront you here.

You can decide to be a spineless coward and hide this post again, or you can muster a semblance of dignity and explain your power-drunk decision

I don't know why we all have to do this. Were you the one who issued the disclaimer?

Are you among the contributors?

And do you realise that even with the disclaimer, if a plot is found too insultive on a handle, that post will be hidden and the plot changed. You cannot have fun at the expense of others.

Just because you find it funny does not mean others do.

Even with all you said, you have not shown me what rule I have broken.

I have suggested that a character be killed off in a [size=18pt]work of fiction[/size].I was banned for this. By you

I am simply asking which of Nairaland's very explicit rules I broke.

Very Simple.

No

2. Don't abuse, bully, deliberately insult/provoke, fight, or wish harm to any Nairaland member.
3. Don't advocate or encourage violent actions against any person, tribe, race, or group of people.


I was suggesting a character be killed in a Work of Fiction

By its very definition, Fiction is the form of any work that deals, in part or in whole, with information or events that are not factual, but rather, imaginary and theoretical—that is, invented by the author.

Any characters in the work of fiction are not real, so rules no 2 and 3 cannot apply.
I advocated that a character be killed, not a Nairalander

Your Job as a Mod is to enforce the law, and not interprete it arbitrarily

Unless rules no 2 and 3 are explicitly stated to cover ficitious renderings of Niaraland members,I demand that my comments be unhidden and my ID unblocked

Re: Literature/Writing Complaints Thread by Mynd44: 11:00pm On Jul 16, 2013
I am going to start a story soon. In that story, I am going to insult a particular member of Nairaland and attack that member because I don't like the person.

Then I will write about how that person is tortured, and eventually killed.
And then issue a disclaimer that it is fiction

Does that break the rules of Nairaland? Oh no, it was not stated in the rules that I can't do that.



Rule 2, you wished harm on a member(you are not part of the writing team hence the disclaimer does not cover you)

Rule 3, you encouraged violence against another member.

And oh I forgot to add Rule 1 to the mix.
Re: Literature/Writing Complaints Thread by Nobody: 11:03pm On Jul 16, 2013
I just find it quite unfortunate that there is only one Mod in this section.

Absolute control by one Mod means that we are all at the mercy of poor judgment.

What a shame, I was just beginning to like it here undecided

It wasn't. And Isn't. Because any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead,business organization, events or locales is entirely coincidental

Rule 3, you encouraged violence against another member.

Intelligence is clearly not a job requirement as a Mod. I suggested that a fictional character be killed. Being a member of the writing team is irrelevant anyway as the work was thrown open to submissions from all.

You are yet to explicitly show how my statement is in direct violation of any of the rules.

I give up anyway. Like I said earlier, Intelligence is clearly not a job requirement as a mod

Dear mynd, am highly disappointed in the way you 'mod' this section nowadays, i think you're more of a dictator this days.
What do you mean by this comment?
Mynd_44:
Your next "play" might earn you a ban.


Don't make another comment here if you don't want to endorse a thread as I will consider it derailing.

Not kidding
don't forget...no one is above the law.
If you don't want me to comment on a particular thread, you too should not comment on such thread, cause we're both under the same law.
