@IlDiavolo
Depends on how the joke is used. For example, what did the gay santa say on Christmas?

Hey ho ho.

It isn't an attack, it is a fun laugh. If you use them in a bad way or offensive, then it is wrong

The New Reign #4 | The Stolen Gem
"Yes...with all my power in the Artemir universe, I will officially become the champion, I have obtained the 2nd gem." shouted RaMos. That is when a sneaky man named Mopac comes from the clouds of heaven and steals the gem from RaMos.  "Hehe sucker," said Mopac as he ran away with the 2nd gem.

"CURSE HIM!!!!!" replied RaMos as his strength disabled
-------------------------------------------
Dudz banged his head on the table along with thett, Vaarka, and Alec. "So this is it." said Dudz
"Yep. We lost the gem." replied Alec
"We don't even know who has it. Or even why he wants it!!" replied Vaarka
"There is no hope..." replied bsh. "We lost the fight." 
----------------------------------
Artemus is furious, pacing around the office as he mumbles angrily to himself.
"ummm you ok?" asked Bsh.
"NO I AM NOT! THE ISLAND HAS 6 STONES! 1 IS WITH RAMOS AND THE OTHER IS IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE!!! HOW DID YOU NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS?" screamed Artemus.
"i...i....i tr... tried being lassiez..."
"No, I have had it with you and your excuses. Bsh1. I am hereby removing you from mod duties until further noticed." Artemus proclaimed. "A young man by the named of Virtuoso will take your spot. Study the mod law." 

The door slammed shut on bsh1. Rain and lightning surrounded the sky. bsh sat...and sat...and sat, until he couldn't bare to look at himself in the mirror. "What have I done?' asked bsh. "I ruined the island. I have to repay my duty to this state. I must hunt far and wide for the gem." 

Bsh walked into the rain and down the path to a small cave. Bsh took out his book of magic spells and lit a light around a great fire. He waited until the Ghost of Airmax appeared out of a rock. Airmax was wearing a sombrero and shaking his maracas around, then he turned around and saw bsh.

"Help me MAX!" shouted bsh
"Holy fuck I thought I got out of the mod life. I spent my entire 5 months in Mexico getting drunk n wild and having such a good time not having to worry about brats on this site." replied airmax
"Just this once. Pleeeeaaaseee" begged bsh

Fine. Ill help

@David
(1) Require 3 debates that have at least 3 rounds, are not forfeited, and are not troll debates; OR
I don't like this one. A debate takes countless hours and days to do something, and people do not have the ability to continuosly debate for that long. Some people have lives. A vote would require at most 1 hour, but a debate drags on for 10 days at least with lengthy arguments. I believe comparing debates to votes is a bad analogy
(2) Require at least 500 quality forum posts; OR
Define quality
(3) Prove to the moderator team that you understand the voting process by giving us three quality RFDs plus 200 forum posts 
This is the best option here. It shows a clear understanding of a debate and a full comprehension of what is going on in the debate. This definetly is the best option. It is an actual vote and it must have some time experience in order to level a vote. This should be instated.
(1) The ability for the moderator team to view full email addresses (currently the moderator team is not able to view email addresses); and 
(2) The ability to view the entire IP address for accounts
No offense to any of y'all, but I don't trust random internet people, even if they are moderators of some sort. Especially if the site isn't "verified". This means if a mod is hacked or info of the site is breached, (which could be common due to foreignness of bsh and Mike) all my info is out there for the world to see. And what if the mod is some sort of pedo trying to get into my account(not saying you would be). I just am not comfy with that idea, especially for teens on the site

I'd prefer email if it had to come down to that. A new email address could be made

Socialism is the reason why China was far behind. Once the economy was capitalist, they were booming. Once they fix their government to democracy and capitalist, they will overtake US once they increase their foreign influence

disgusted is a delusional nihilist. His philosophy is very contradictory to politics and he believes his view only matters and he is always right bc he believes in nothing else

from my expierence, nihilists are nothing but trouble. they harrass you and try to bring you down to their level.

He will ultimately get ridiculed by the false media and the bias of the news and when a democrat comes in with a worse solution, they will be the next George Washington.

I am in agreement, but it will ultimately lead to a fail

The ban log question was considered in a MEEP and failed to pass the required threshold to be adopted. I understand it's appeal, but I also understand why someone might reasonably object to it. I think it is important to respect the MEEP process that the community adopted.

I think it should be re-meeped. If you are specifically trying to avoid
these cal

out posts
(like discussed), a ban log would be helpful


Finally, I do think moderation is generally laissez-faire. Users are almost never banned for after their first, second, or even third warnings. I don't usually ban people for individual infractions, but rather usually only when they accumulate numerous infractions. It usually takes somewhere around 20 individual, noteworthy infractions (i.e. 3 warnings) to trigger a first moderation response. To me, that seems fairly lenient. Most reports are never even acted upon because they're judged to be too minor to warrant moderation action or because they were never really violations at all.
I do think a 3 strike system is good in some cases and I think that is fair. I think the words and sayings that some people say should be leaned lassiez fair. If not, there should a clarification from what is right or wrong to discuss this.

I believe saying things like "Fuck you little prick," or "Stupid dumbass alert," is not provokable enough for a warn or notice or even an infraction.

I think we should set a session to determine what is warnable and what is not even an infraction so that moderation can be debated

I don't know much about the Poly ban, so I am not to say whether the ban was good or not.

An eye to eye approach is justified in certain scenarios. While I don't agree it is right to kill these prisoners, because it teaches them nothing, but sometimes it works in a society

Idek anymore. I have not seen any provoking actions to trigger a ban, so a link to the posts would be helpful

But more or less, I think banning people and banning people is not a healthy way to deal with the solution. This why I advocate for a ban log, but it won't be implemented. That way all bans are recorded without Bsh complaining about call outs.

Lassiez fair is the way we need to operate. If everyone gets an RO that isn't needed or something like that, then the activity decreases
