NationStates Jolt Archive

Might I ask how the decision was made/will be made on that nation name?

Isn't that an obscene name?

(and before I'm mod-slapped: no, this is not an attempt at mod status consideration)

What is obscene about the name?

Stripper is not obscene. We might not all approve of such a job choice, but it is not obscene.

Blow is not obscene. It refers to cocaine, as you'll see from the slogan.

Strippers who Blow, maybe. Strippers and Blow, not obscene.

Thanks.

Purely wondering since I've been gone for so long and still wouldn't consider myself "back" (I just have mono and therefore a ton of free time)...

Is it common practice now to "mod-slap" someone for reporting something? I'm just confused as to why this was brought up in an otherwise typical moderation thread...

I was confused about that myself.

Not that I'd noticed, Steel - though there's always the few who expect to be treated poorly by 'the man', or are looking for more attention than they warrant, or hoping for a fight or some such so they can retroactively claim they were abused, or those who report the stupidest things time and again when they've been told previously not to be frivolous about things, yet can't seem to resist crying here every time someone looks at them wrong. *shrugs*

Is it common practice to make your brief reappearance an opportunity to suggest mod bias again without evidence, having not gotten enough satisfaction previously with the effort? :P (yes, had to tease - it's been a while.)

Oh Nathi if you must know, I was more concerned with "mod status consideration" in my ongoing and neverending ploy to become one. I'm currently in Phase XIV, aka, "act like you're not interested by not posting for months and they'll ask you." ;)

Um, hello? Since when is cocaine not obscene? That is, unless, suddenly everyone in this forum became pot-heads. Cocaine is also promoting illegal activity. 'Scuse me, but I've seen people banned on this forum for much less than that. ;)

And pleaaaase don't just give me "time off" if you don't like my comment. I want to be deleted! Geeze!

'Cocaine' is a word. It isn't promoting anything at all, except perhaps dictionary sales.

Sounds to me like he's promoting it.

Why is it so hard to get deleted around here when you want to be? They always delete the people that don't want or need to be deleted. :headbang:

JUST DELETE ME, POT-HEADED IDIOTS! :sniper:

You don't get deleted on request. If you don't want your nation anymore, just leave it and it will die after 30 days.

Oh... that explains a couple of things. :D

That's like accusing me of promoting Communism through my username. Or you promoting misogyny. In other words, it's wrong.

I had just posted wondering if there was an active mod search out. Hence I thought it might be a show of an attempt at garnering attention.

And mod-slap was me translating the "stop trying for mod status" response.

I still don't see how you would have been "trying for mod status" by reporting things though. It's pretty much the job of each of us to report things that would harm the game in one way or another. There's no way the mods can scan every thread in their never-ending search for "forum evil" lol.

Like friendly nations named, oh, I don't know, Muslim Terrorism?

JUST DELETE ME, POT-HEADED IDIOTS!
