Poor Kyotoblue, he tries to avoid politics and trolling and still gets thrown in the doghouse. To be honest, I really can't figure out why.

Garand31 Oct 2014 12:36 p.m. PST

Who would push the button on poor Kyote!?!

No worries, I'll slip him a pack of smokes and a razor saw…

It makes plenty of TMP sense that one would be hands-off with neo-Nazis but DH someone who is consistently a voice of reason around here.

I have to agree with Tango. It seems to me that Kyoteblue was just emphasizing that discussions on the Ultramodern boards should (ideally) be gaming-oriented, not open discussions of the underlying politics, which we all know devolve to easily into Blue Fez territory.

Editor, can we please show Kyoteblue some leniency?

KTravlos31 Oct 2014 1:00 p.m. PST

Why the dunce is Kyoteblue dawghoused? This is very aggravating. Because of what? Demanding that a topic on a wargames board, on a wargames forum, actually be relevant to wargaming? The Unnameable One take the Ultramodern Boards. They are nothing but a waste of bandwidth.

Tango01, please give up on that board. It simply creates grief. Please!

This is wrong. This is simply too wrong. I understand why Bill did this (because of those people harassing Tango01 in the past). But asking how to game something is not the same thing as what those people did.

I am very very very disappointed :(

venezia sta affondando31 Oct 2014 1:01 p.m. PST

Release Kyoteblue and then go take a good long look at yourself in the mirror.

You've changed…or maybe those coming here have. But it sure sucks around that Ultramodern Board at the moment.

epturner31 Oct 2014 1:06 p.m. PST

Concur. That sentence was a bit much, in my opinion.

Please, free Kyote…

Cosmic Reset31 Oct 2014 1:07 p.m. PST

This game just went a little past old.

Tango0131 Oct 2014 1:11 p.m. PST

Venezia… you are not a kindly man in this case.

How possible I'm guilty of my friend Kyoteblue dawhouse?

Thousands and thousands of comments on Ultramodern and some people who really cross the line, as some did in other Forums too.

Or you forget what happened in the Napoleonic, Flames of War and others?

Harrasing me is not the way to write in this thread.

I'm not going to push the bottom , but you have to correct your behavior here amigo.

I call you to reflexion.

Kyoteblue???*

Are you guys nuts?!?!?

He's always been my Jimmy Cricket, whenever I go too far to the right! We don't always agree, but he stabilizes us.

He completes us!!!

* Dom said the EXACT same thing on my ebola thread, and it didn't seem DH-worthy to anyone, though he or someone else did succeed in getting the entire thread deleted!

Personal logo Editor in Chief Bill The Editor of TMP Fezian31 Oct 2014 1:20 p.m. PST

Kyotebue posted the same thing in several topics. It constitutes harassment of people using the Ultramodern board.

A five-day term is normal on Fridays.

venezia sta affondando31 Oct 2014 1:22 p.m. PST

Venezia…blah,blah,blah

Strange as it may seem, I was not addressing you and was not giving any thought towards you. In case you sincerely do not know, I was addressing The Editor. The fellow in charge of TMP.

I suspect you may be stressed and over-sensitive at the moment. You have my sympathy.

Cacique Caribe31 Oct 2014 1:24 p.m. PST

Editor: "It constitutes harassment of people using the Ultramodern board."

To WHICH people on that board exactly?

I didn't complain to you when Dom wrote that EXACT same thing on my ebola thread. And he has done that on many other threads there. No big deal. It's harmless fun.

We all took it in stride … Until he or someone else succeeded in getting my thread deleted. But that's an entirely different subject altogether.

What they said…. As CC says, I've posted exactly the same comment, justifiably I felt, and apparently someone agreed, since the thread got nuked at some point. If you really think he's pushed the envelope, a friendly warning should suffice, but even that only if he doesn't basically have a good point….

Tango0131 Oct 2014 1:27 p.m. PST

Maybe you are right my friend.
But I have huge motives to be sensitive here! (smile)

No harm here.

Bill, so if you commited a crime on friday, you have more days of punishment?

Sorry, but I don't agree.

Weekends have more trafic than laboral days and I guess that our dear Kyoteblue would suffered his punishment worst on those days.

Can we reduce his penalty for 3 days?

If this was the intent of the rule, the rule is broke.

Let him out.

"And he has done that on many other threads there."

- Just a minor point, but no, no I haven't…. I think I've made a similar comment on precisely *one* thread, which turned into a Dawgbouse filling serial train wreck exactly as I'd predicted…. (Likewise I didn't hit complain or attempt to get your thread nuked, but it was so completely unrelated to anything remotely military that comment felt appropriate….)

Cacique Caribe31 Oct 2014 2:10 p.m. PST

Dom,

Maybe not many, but I've seen you do it a few times. Anyway, the point is that it's not offensive. There are hundreds of other things I would call offensive and that's certainly NOT one of them.

You had every right to voice your disagreement. Like my wife and I tell each other every once in a while, "if you and I agreed all the time, one of us would be unnecessary." :)

"Teach me to feel another's woe, to hide the fault I see, that mercy I to others show, that mercy show to me." – Alexander Pope. Kyoteblue is a gentleman who slipped up. Can we not find it in our hearts to forgive?

"A little bit of mercy makes the world less cold and more just." – Pope Francis. Wise words for the secular world as well as the religious one.

"Computers are like Old Testament gods; lots of rules and no mercy." – Joseph Campbell. Will Saul smite the Amalekites once again in order to keep his king's crown, or will he have the courage to show mercy and fall as a simple mortal man?

"There are three things in the world that deserve no mercy, hypocrisy, fraud, and tyranny." – Fredrick William Robertson. Kyoteblue was not hypocritical nor fraudulent nor tyrannical. He had some moments of human weakness and was exasperated. Can anyone here say they have never been in the same boat?

"Amnesty is as good for those who give it as for those who receive it. It has the admirable quality of bestowing mercy on both sides." – Victor Hugo. Let's all be better for an act of kindness!

The point has been made. Let the man go, please.

Rrobbyrobot31 Oct 2014 3:48 p.m. PST

I don't see how what Kyote said was offensive. Even after Bill's remark. I just don't see the problem…

Winston Smith31 Oct 2014 4:01 p.m. PST

When kyoteblue goes to the Dawghouse , you know this place had gone insane.
HOW can asking for a gaming tie-in on a gaming page possibly be considered "harassment"?

Goonfighter31 Oct 2014 4:16 p.m. PST

I'm Brian! Or…… How is this related to gaming and how would we game it?

Personal logo Editor in Chief Bill The Editor of TMP Fezian31 Oct 2014 4:18 p.m. PST

OK, in honor of Halloween, I'll let him out… evil grin

Rod I Robertson31 Oct 2014 4:21 p.m. PST

thumbs up

wrgmr131 Oct 2014 4:36 p.m. PST

Sensible choice Bill. He really didn't deserve that long a sentence. Possibly a PM from you regarding posting the same thing more than once.

Charlie 1231 Oct 2014 4:39 p.m. PST

Yeah! Three cheers for Bill!

darthfozzywig31 Oct 2014 4:47 p.m. PST

More like three cheers for kyote.

The Gray Ghost31 Oct 2014 4:50 p.m. PST

perhaps we should avoid discussing miniature wargaming here, it seems to upset so many people

John the OFM31 Oct 2014 4:54 p.m. PST

PS. don't stand to close to me or John the OFM as we both could use a long hot shower..

I brought the soap you really like.

darthfozzywig31 Oct 2014 5:07 p.m. PST

Would it be awkward to offer scented oils?

Mako1131 Oct 2014 5:34 p.m. PST

Glad to see he's freed.

The usual answer is with 15mm, 1/300th, or 1/600th scale minis, and either commercial, or home-made rules.

I was here at Noon today, and nothing happenin'.

I come back this evening, and 1)Offense Committed, 2) Perpetrator Bastilled, 3) Perpetrator Receives Imperial Pardon, 4) Drinks all 'round, and 5) I missed the whole show.

And here I was, about to deliver some ringing oratory about the need to keep the lands open for free ranging blue kyote's, and it's all taken away just as I stand up to speak in defense of my Ancient Associate.

I close with the Immortal Words of Emily Litella:

"Never Mind…."

What has this post got to do with wargaming? How do you game it?
