Declined Rule Suggestion: No Lenny Face

I would support that too. Because you know, lenny isn't funny anymore.

(and don't worry, this guy is already banned for hacks ^^)

Thanks,
Pointy

 

We'd instantly lose around 60% of our community. Sadly.
Those damn filthy jailbreak regulars including @Starfish are also using that shit
Even tho I'd support that too

 

I don't really care either if we've got them or we don't actually allow these to be used, but yeah, those lenny faces obviously aren't funny as they were -years- ago and It's plain annoying to see them.

 

Agreed.

Lenny face used to be funny.
Now everybody use this everywhere.
I also support this.

 

How about altering the rule

to

 

So you guys can't mute people for spam or excessive use of a bind or what ?
Am I missing something?

How the fuck does this thread even make sense, I thought the original complaint was spam?
But do as you please since everybody thinks inside of a plastic bag here.

What makes your screen change exactly? How was that an answer to my post other then justifying the existence of this, do you need an even bigger confirmation that lenny should be muted ALREADY?? And by the way
WHAT IS THE POINT OF THIS, you can't justify this thread by and I quote word from word:
"Because you know, lenny isn't funny anymore."

 

Ehem, did you see the screenie?

 

I gotta agree with this. But wont bother if it occurs 1 or two times but it get annoying in length if continued.
I say yes

 

Is this thread serious?
As a jailbreak admin I see at least 300 lenny faces a day and it doesn't bother me one bit.
Spamming is always gagworthy, why even specifically make a rule for the lenny face?

 

Well. I didn't meant support like this.
If they use it once or twice. No biggy, but the spam...

Oku, I love you damnit


Regarding the Lenny face; It's a response used in the same sequence as people these days use lol; basically "I have nothing else to say about that"

The real issue here is that people use it way, way too often. It carries an aura of "memes" which usually doesn't work well when you as an admin tell someone to stop spamming.
Because 95% of the time; you just get a lenny face response.

Just make it a rule already so I can feel no remorse in gagging/muting the people lacking social skills to say anything else.

But really why do we need a rule for this? We already got the rule about spamming. Why would we need a special one for lenny?

Sadly TF2 is not a game popular by "adults" so we need to learn to live with the lenny spamming kids. I got no problem with a lenny every once and a while.

But when they keep spamming it... Gag them already! If they keep continuing after that you can even ban them for "ignoring admins".

I hope we can be mature enough not to rage at lenny spammers.

 

I agree, but problem is that some kid just never learn and keep spamming after their mute/ gag has expired. Sadly only way to deal with those is either kick or ban for a few hours.

 

It's something around those lines, as Chale says.

I'd say that someone who has the mentality to spam lenny faces, probably doesn't give a care in the world if he's TEMPORARILY hindered to publicly spread his love about a meme.
As chick says; it falls into the category of spam so just because it's a "thing" to spam it, doesn't mean we shall welcome it.

 

I agree with starfish. I don't even think this thread even is serious.

I'll dare say that this thread was made with a degree of seriousness, given the presentation

As a trade admin, you know what's worse than someone spamming their trade messages?

A guy spamming anything else that's not even remotely related to trading, even more so when it's a stupid face.


Of course, I must remind you that it's not "forbidden" to use it once in a while, like anything else.
The issue at hand is that it somehow attracts spam. One guy uses it, suddenly more people jump in.

It's contagious. Believe it~

 

The point is that spamming is never allowed, ever.
Spammers will always be punished to a certain degree.
Are we seriously gonna make a seperate rule for a face?
While things like "get rekt" and many others still get spouted around just as much?

If were gonna make a rule for every meme or piece of slang, were gonna have a looong list of rules.

 

Honestly, even if prevent a meme from spamming there will always be a new one to flood the chat with. Took a while for Shrek memes to become old but thank God they did, they were quite annoying. It's okay to send like one Lenny face but flooding the chat with them is quite annoying, specially on the trade server. I'm going to stay neutral for now.

 

lenny 4life( ͡ʘ ͜ʖ ͡ʘ)
on serious note, I dont mind 1 lenny now and then but when people spam it can get a bit annoying, so yeah what fahlo said sounds good
