I've requested clarification from Tyler on the new troll/gwc rule as it relates to Rule#1, but do not yet have a response.

I consider this a personal attack. Yet I dont know if this is a joke or not. I have seen many locked threads that were locked because someone called another out by name. This seems no different? Unless its a joke?

As I said before, Dan Hood is 'Special'...

He's better than us and gets away with murder here on MM, but as the great 'Dan Hood' would say and has said before, "If you don't like it you don't have to stay, it's not like you're paying for this site"...

Yes.  Guy with camera.
Referring to a guy who just wants to see boobies so he gets a camera to take pics of some models' boobies.

Just because you are called an instigator GWC doesn't mean that those words are taken lightly by Professionals in the field of Photography.  To a Professional Photographer, being called a GWC is offensive.  You should re-think your position on this, because someone may call you an asshole, and to me and many others here on MM, calling someone or being called an asshole is not offensive.  Get my meaning?

What is right for one is not right for every-one.

To be fair one should refrain from calling 'anyone' any kind of name.  Calling someone a troll or GWC is just as immature and childish as calling someone a 'penis' or an 'anus'.

It wasn't just my position on them it was others and the big guy himself. No real pro is going to be bothered by GWC. They are just options not facts.

So if it is say my opinion that someone is an asshole and I can't prove it as a fact, are you telling me it's okay to call them that?  I mean it would be my opinion, not a solid fact...

If thats a fact then why not put him in the brig or cancel his account? Why call him out on a forum? I really dont get this. Being honest please explain.

I quit a few weeks ago. I walked into work. Decided that I no longer need it. So I just walked out. Now I have plenty of free time on my hands.

Nope asshole is not on the approved list. It was discussed today. I'll tell you one thing my experiment is working about like I thought. If Tyler changes policy I'll lock or modify the post.

Only Troll and GWC are on there. those will most likely be the only exceptions.

Right????

Everything about you as a person just screams "I have an asshole!"

It's about being fair, even though I don't like the person Dan Hood called out in a public forum, I don't agree that it was right or fair.  Had you or I done it, we'd be suspended... 

Once suspended, we'd complain and all Mr. Dan Hood would tell us is that we, mere members of the MM community were in violation and if we don't agree we don't have to, we can just leave...

How the fuck is that fair???
