Dias: It's a "seniority" thing, so to speak.
Newbies come on, disrupt the freaking hell out of the forums/newsgroups/etc., then get flamed, flame back trying to defend themselves, and continue to do what they were doing, generally refuse to listen to the rules of the community, etc.. The community flames them for good reason. I've been flaming fairly lightly, in hopes that they get a clue. But, so far, no luck.
Here is a better form of that story, and a more accurate one:
Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, there was a mystical being known as 'Synozeer.' This being was the Elder admin of the mythical spell known as the 'TMS Forums', and all bowed to his mighty presence.
One day, the Elder admin realized that the old 'Forums' were growing obsolete, and using a fraction of his mighty power, created a new form of them. However, a new force came into the realm as they were created. They were known as the most dread threat of all to the old dwellers of the realm, 'Newbie/Wannabe Spammers'. For even Synozeer himself would not defend against these stubborn marauders, hoping that they would get a clue, and the realm's inhabitants were forced to take up arms to defend against their onslaught.
However, these Marauders refused to see themselves for what they truly were, and attacked the olden dwellers of the Realm, claiming that they were "defending themselves". Eventually, a large part of the Realm took up arms against these Marauders, and even then, only one of the Marauders admitted what they were, and joined the ranks of the Dwellers of the Realm. The rest of the Marauders seemed to lack a lick of common sense, and continued in their crusade against the old Dwellers, refusing to listen to common sense or reason unless Synozeer brought out the mystical ultimate weapon known as 'SiteBan'.
I believe that this is a far more accurate version of that story.
