without the idea of actually discussing in them
Actually, I did. Apparently you were too caught up in contriving your accusations to realize that, however.
I don't believe that. I believe you would discuss them, but I don't believe you made them with the intent of discussion. They are two very different things
Also keep in mind, that they made the rules
You went from saying you didn't believe in rules to now believing in them? At least make up your mind.
No, I never changed my view. But we're not arguing about my view. It's about yours. From what I understand, you're arguing that what you did was not against the rules, and I'm saying that essentially, this is a dictatorship and the rules are really just the whims expressed in text. If they are misrepresented, they need to be changed, it does not change their actual whims, which are what matters.
Regardless, I have talked to Mal. Extensively. We've come to somewhat of an understanding. You're arguing moot points that are both skewed and false.
I do no believe them to be. However, regardless I shall drop this, unless of course it happens to come up again.
Edit: By the way, what is your avatar? It's really familiar, but I can't place it.

Boy, that makes the above quote ironic...

I spoke to HSR at some length about this, and I feel like we've reached some common ground. For the sake of those reading here I want to reproduce a short section of the conversation so that you guys understand the perspective we approach decisions like this from.
You may have noticed that the Wowhead forums don't actually HAVE a lot of rules. Rules aren't the basis on which we moderate. All our moderators are human, and people will always be a little inconsistent--and if moderator actions were based on a by the book, black and white set of rules we would constantly be opening ourselves up to the most common type of troll: people who break the spirit of the law while holding to the letter, and then throw a fit when the moderators take action.
To avoid that, the moderators have been granted a great deal of leeway when taking action on the forums. We are all empowered to take any action necessary to ensure that the forums are a fun, happy, healthy place to browse, and if anyone takes action counter to that goal we have the right to do something. It's subtle and sometimes we make mistakes, but we try and moderate based on the
intentions
of the user rather than the actual action the user is taking.
HSR rightly pointed out that regardless of what I may have thought of his intentions, most of the threads he posted actually DID have legitimate responses. I'm reinstating those threads now, so post away. :)

I'm sorry to anyone who I may have offended or caused annoyance to in any way today. People often take things differently than you expect them too; I should have stopped to think of the repercussion before beginning what I did. I won't say that my grievances were unfounded, but the means I employed to deal with the issue were rash.
It was not intended to end up like this, but it did, so I'm sorry.

Apology accepted. I'm okay with the threads... It's really just the spam.

I've gone through and restored as many of the threads as I could find, with all the spam-related drama removed, so post away. And I love Snickers bars.

Heh, aye.
Yeah, my younger brother is too. Growing up, we had to keep the peanut butter on a high shelf and we were only allowed to eat it when he wasn't around. Otherwise we were stuck eating his Almond Butter (one of the few nuts he could eat) :P

Almonds, Cashews and Pecans here; so from 5 to like 17 I had to stay away from all nuts as they never did a full allergy test on me, my first reaction was due to a can of mixed nuts... of course, I just stay away from peanut based products on the principal now, don't want another late night trip to the emergency room, throwing up my guts to keep the airway open....

Im allergic to scallops, too bad resturants never say if there's scallops in the food, thus causing me to be vomiting after almost every meal.
Scallops are usually pretty noticeable... If you have a serious problem just ask the waiter before you order.
