Win a date w/ Willa Ford contest...

The bashing here is getting out of hand...posters can't be calling fighters "douches assholes" etc.

If you want to say "Such and such treats people disrespectfully, seems arrogant" etc. this is an acceptable form of criticism.

The line is not that fine, name calling denigrating etc. is prohibited and will result in dubs or ban depending on severity.

Bottom line, criticism is ok - bashing is not.

I take it the gloves arent off if a fighter refers to "internet retards" no?! Also is "he CAME ACROSS as a douche" acceptable as opposed to "he is a douche"

Acceptable: "So and so acted like an ass".

Unacceptable: "So and so IS an ass, his mother puts out", etc.

Guys please don't get cute with this, you're not stupid and we shouldn't even have to tell you these things.

Translation: You can bash a fighter's actions all you want, as long you don't bash the fighter.

* Karo's bullying of Nate was a douchebag move = OK
* Karo is a douchebag = not OK

* Nate looked like a moron when he wanted to throw down over over 'Suck it Team Pulver' = OK
* Nate is a moron = not OK

Seems simple enough.

Yeah obviously I see this getting out of hand too. Unfortunately this isn't really a black and white issue.

I see nothing wrong with, "Karo was acting like an asshole." But stuff like "Karo is a knob gobbling shit eating ****." is not acceptable.

Apparently not too many people give a fuck about this sticky, so I've pulled and closed a couple threads. Some of you can also expect bans for racism eventually.
