That's not the issue I'm speaking of grumpy ass. He was fucking around, do you really think his intent was to fuck the entire site up? Hell no...why punish him?

Question: What did Tom possibly think would happen with his little posts?
Let's play it out:
1. Nothing. The site would handle it, there would be a thread with "TomFoolery" in it shitload of times and no one would care, no one would rack him, it would die a lonely ignored thread.
2. It would be called Spam and get deleted, or moved, or something, giving bdic and all of you who enjoy ranting and stomping your feet more fodder for "this place is no different" threads. Tom might get racked.
3. It would break the site. This would definately get some kind of rise out of the owners of the site. Possibly a banning? Stripping him of mod powers? Something to allow the effect of number 2 to happen. Tom would more than likely get racked.
It seems like there's no way he could have had truly innocuous intentions. So why punish him? Well, its not punishment. If you want to fuck around you're welcome to do so (with reason, and taking down 400 sites is not within reason), but you won't be a mod. Its just stupid to have people you can't trust (sup VitE) and who might do idiotic things (sup Tom) as Mods.

Well, he's being punished by all the talk of how he fucked up the site for Lee, and how much its gonna cost him. Any one of us could have tried doing what Tom did...

I know he didn't mean it. However, he shouldn't be praised either. Not pointing out anyone specifically, but it's not "rack-worthy."

Anyone of us could have. But any one of us didn't. Welcome to the real world. He did a stupid thing, he cost Lee money, could have cost us all the site, cost 400 other sites uptime, which could possibly mean money for people making a livelyhood. Yes it is going to get talked about.
If you do a stupid thing and people talk about how totally fucking studid and inconsiderate you are, that's not punishment. Its a fact.

I'm sorry. I missed when velvet gave her login info to someone who had already had their admin powers removed, and took the site down along with 400 others. Could you go ahead and bump those threads for me?
