Important -Antipoint Abuse

Xmas comes early......:) Thank's JP

Thank God that matter was cleared up, Im glad people see I wasnt giving out antipoints for no reason and thats why I made the thread.
They got what they deserved.

;)

thank god for JP.... finally the matter has been cleared up.... the world is at peace

for now! :firedevil

Yay. Hebriss is gone, I didn't deal that much with Schmoo though. Well, there's not much stopping them from returning with a different name... but you can always do a few tests to figure out if it's them if your suspicion is aroused.

My take on it:

Yay. They're gone. If they come back under another name, and you never get to the point at which you'd suspect it was him/them, then they must've learned their lesson anyway, so why witch-hunt?

As for APs... They seem to be the most contentious topic around here. So many threads. Head hurts. I hope it will settle for a while before the next thread.

I must say, I'm very surprised that Shmoo was doing that. I never would have figured that in a million years. He simply didn't strike me as the kind of person who would do something like that. Oh well. It's always the ones you never suspect.....

JP, savior of Antionline, has saved us. From the filth that had infected us. Seriously, how low can one get to impersonate a rightful person and do something so ugly? Hah!, they thought they had it going...:blast:, yet the outcome was different. Justice has conquered once again. Peace be amid us from now on.

:drink:

evilseed must be giggling now that hebris is gone.....

as far as anti-points, who the heck cares how many you get...
i haven't given even 1. i just read the posts, maybe post a reply and i don't get all unglued if someone gives me negative points, b.f.d... if you're that insecure you should never post.... just a new members opinion...

i've been giving out positive antipoints with my name in the comments....i've only given out positive though...so if you see firefemme in the comment box and they were positive comments...then they WERE from me...k?

so, we ARE NOT supposed to add our names to the comments or they will automatically be considered as fake?

As a few of you are aware......I always sign my handle and leave a short message when I give points.I've not been around for awhile and am certainly not a big poster due to a busy schedule,but was disqusted to read this thread concerning antipoints abuse.Many of the active members here write informative and many times amusing posts and I do enjoy the reading.I'm glad JP took this situation under control.I still think this is a worthwhile system.There will always be someone trying to abuse things,it's unfortunate but a fact of life.I guess from now on I'll not be putting my handle to any of my votes,but I'll try to post a positive reply.Hey.......you heavy posters out there.......keep up the writing........it's what keeps me coming back.And JP,again I thank you for making this forum available to all of us.

Later,

diz iz rediculous. ppl r dealing wit sumthin dat can be as trivial as antipoints and someone still feels the urge to mess up sumthin wit diz forum. the worst part bout diz iz dat itz on a site that focuses on the prevention of things like this. i think that the some senior members and veterans of diz forum kud somewhat look out for diz kinda thing so dat we can maintain wut we set out to do in diz site.

I was dismayed to see this thread appear as I thought that people would have the guts to admit when they disapprove of a post by at least signing their own name or, if they wanted to remain anonymous, merely not signing anything but their comments. But to sign someone else's name is appalling.

If I were to say that I was disappointed that Hehbris/Debris was removed from the system I'd be lying. I was pleased. He bordered on harassment a few times in the IRC chat with me and was scary at times. While nothing went beyond what was in the IRC and I probably let things go without putting my foot down, it was still disturbing nonetheless.

Now for Shmoo, I'm quite shocked. I never pictured or conceived that he would do that. And in conversation yesterday in IRC it seemed to be a shock to him. JP, while I do not question your choice to remove Shmoo, I ask as to what lead you to him? Are both hehbris/debris and Shmoo prevented from ever logging on to the system? Or can they under new accounts?

Just some random thoughts.

folks, I must admit... it is better to lose your account on AO and feel the shocking effects of your mortality at a young age, than to have your life shattered because you went for so long and never got caught that suddenly the feds are at your door and *poof* whatever happened to the fun times. Well let me tell you, you will be sitting in jail with other losers talking about the good old times and salvate at the sound of a dial tone, because you know that is the closest they will let you get to the internet for a long time!!! The two of them were not smart enough to not get caught, largely by using their i.d. to distribute the points. Let's all hope this will be a lesson for new joiners of AO.

I never suspected Schoo for a moment but there is proof of his guilt so I suppose he had to go.

As for hehbris despite personal disagreements [quite a few to be honest] I would never expect he would try something as sly as this and now he is paying for it, no more messing about he went a little too far and Im sure he now realises this.

Are they kicked out forever our could they register a new account?
I was just wondering

Hehbris aka Debris is someone you could expect this from, I know who he hangs out with and I know he is very agressive.
The minute he said e-mail me [email protected] I knew it whas him.
They could register again, bet they have tried but then again how long will it take before we figure that out? who knows, maybe he even has multiple accounts that have been running for quite some time.
As far as the abuse, people still keep giving me antipoints for reasons that will make you laugh and still they don't harm the amount of points I have.

GO JP!

If they do register a new account (and they can, and the probably will) they will act like fools again, and get booted. More work for JP, but thems the breaks!

haha i even got the funniest reason for a negative antipoint today.. some kidd gave me a negative and left a msg "you stupid convict sum" hahah

i see that guy made a research on Australia... and yeah Australia did start as a prison island where all convicts were sent.. but heck.. what do i have got to do with them? first of all im Filo.. i aint aussie.. but i do live in australia and do have australian citizenship.. big deal.. i also have american citizenship and 12 passports.. so go ditch all the countries i live in if u want. hahahha..
