It was purely an hand-rolled ciggarette, no doubt about that.

Man, why does this has to be a "their picking on me"... There is no need for this type of attitude on things.. If you want to be like mature people. DO so.. the issue that Fit was talking about has been done. Lets go on something else.. Not go into the drama-lama that this has turned into being. Yes, there is a few people that aren't of "age" here.. But man, their being better people then some are now..

Guys come on. Lets be civil on all this.. Don't have to go into the stuff that this thread is turning into..

I'm not going to even bother reading this thread. Fact of the matter is, if someone doesn't follow the rules of this forum, it gets moderated in one way or another. Is it always perfect? No. Does it work? Sure does.

The only reason some people get attention around here is because they bring attention to themselves. If you feel you are being singled out for any reason, you have a misperception of how life and the internet works.

All in all, this all seems to be people bickering for the sake of bickering and attention whoring. I really don't care, I've said my piece, enjoy yourselves.

The rules were made for a reason that is very easy to understand.
To protect members from getting ripped off. Personally trying to "debate" the rules would make me very wary of wanting to do business with that person.
What's so hard about posting a proper pic in the right format?
We're talking hundreds, even thousands of dollars worth of products here.
This is not some nickle dime operation where we sell bubblegum.
People need and "deserve" these kinds of reassurances, that their best interests are being looked out for.

Dear Flyordie,


You have received an infraction at techPowerUp! Forums.

Reason: Inciting Argument (Flaming)
-------
I'm sorry, but I won't tolerate empty and untrue comments against myself.
-------

This infraction is worth 5 point(s) and may result in restricted access until it expires. Serious infractions will never expire.

You mean that?
you went a bit far erocker....

and if these are infractions given to the others, I don't understand how I didn't get an infraction ( I clearly pushed the drama further ) and how a mod did come in and say " EVERYTHINGS STOPS HERE AND ANY POSTS OFF-TOPIC WILLL BE INFRACTED!!!!"



and fits is right to tell us that he is not his puppet cuz it SERIOUSLY looked like it LOL

I didnt make the image so I cant comment what that is inside the cigarette shaped object.

It could be cow shit for all I care......however, I do think this thread needs to lighten up and if posting 3 Lego men with a lighter and cigarette is a bad thing thats worthy of an infraction, TPU's BST section is the least of this communities worries.

inractions ont matter. Their supposed to be private. He wasnt allowed to post that. What he got it for is irrelivent. Erocker was justified. He was flamminf that was clearly bait. If no one can see it get you e-eyes checked. This is REDICULOUS. Like does anyone see what is happening in this thread? This isnt a discussion. It was now its a bunch of members playing look what we can do while the super mods are asleep. You stopped "discussing" as soon as you all started talking smack about the staff. Iv been in their position its hard dude. They have to find rules that are in the best intrest of thousands of REAL people. I SERIOUSLY doubt anyone in this thread could

Handle that at all

Handle that as good as them

Please everyone (if you think you can please that many people...i lold)
