The fact that some of you can't see why this is more than just "an insult on the internet" scares me.

Two wrongs don't make a right. There are lines you do not cross...this is one of them. I think the point you are trying to bring up miracle is we need to be more consistent with these cases, but in reality, when people don't speak up and let us know there is an issue, there's no action that can be taken.

A very sick metaphor to this miracle is if someone got raped and didn't say anything because they felt no one would do anything and it's whatever, it doesn't make it right. example"i got raped, so it ain't a big deal..why u making it a big deal about it?" it's a big deal miracle.

I think it's already been predetermined previously that the line is crossed when making fun of deceased family members.

I think you are more frustrated in the consistency of rules being enforced on these kind of things and admins are always trying their best, but they can't be everywhere miracle, someone needs to step up and say something.

Honestly, on all levels, nuke/blackout both crossed the line here.

I believe it all comes down to character. These comments clearly lack character. Nuke I know has said/done similar things several times over the last couple years he has been around -- I don't know if he has much of a character to understand why some of the personal things he says cross the line. Blackout I think understands, but his comment still lacks character and should not have said what he said. There is zero excuse to respond the way he did even if it was in response to nuke pulling first strike.

I have always been a proponent of 'Don't let words from others dictate who you are or how you live your life'. I think anyone can overcome hateful words and obstacles you face in life. You cannot police everything people say while angry or what have you, but there is NEVER any excuse to go too far. A person of character should know instantly when he/she is going too far. Character, I believe, is the most important thing a person can have and the one thing that is essential to keeping our human-side alive. You can make all the jokes you want and get angry at each other, but don't make it personal. Think for a moment before you hit enter whether what you're saying is personal or not.

just my own take on this

This thread was so stupid until PACO graced it with his presence and set things straight. This is the kind of leadership the UT community needs, and it makes me really happy to see this.

So madness gets a perma ban (relatively unknown player) and Brian gets a slap on the wrist (very well known player with a worse history in this game than the far majority of the community) for pretty much the same offense?
Not trying to be a pain in the ass, but I don't see the congruency here.

That's like comparing a school shooting with shooting a 'suspicious' minority hanging around outside your house

Completely different things

And remember that time someone was talking about his kids(was it Nick?) and you told him that you hope they died

QQ more it's only words, nuke's been asking for it

How is this surprising? Blackout has been toxic for over a year now and nothing has been done. :roll:

blackout...... 2 times caught cheater, 1 times caught toxic human waste, when he will learn? He might as well be still cheating, cuz blackout doesn't and can't learn.

48 hrs blackout ban? and ban nuke aswell? wtf is wrong, we can see blackout is admins pet.

RJ steady there bro. You're in danger of burning off your taste buds with all the PACO ass licking. Your subtle forum digs at me are becoming quite tiresome to be frank.

holder If you have a problem w the ban, it was my final call. I gave the instruction to rain, slightly delayed through Shitty connection, as I was away all weekend. feel free to leave me a long winded message on who my pets are so I won't get reported to the RSPCA next time I go on holiday.

Regarding the thread: Some lines you don't cross. Digs at dead family members are unacceptable. You know the difference between a yo mamma joke and something upsetting. You're all old enough to distinguish the difference.
