You break our no spam rule almost daily and rarely, if ever receive any punishment for it what so ever. I took this just today. Yes, sometimes you're treated poorly by other users, but don't go saying they get away w/ more than you do. Well in his defense, that screenshot isnt even bad, he's having a little fun. For starters, this is just an example. And the rules are rules. Whether you're having fun or not, there are limits to what you can and cannot do.

Another example of this would be if someone had fun posting porn on the chat. That's their, and some others, form of fun, but it's not allowed therefore they will be warned and/or kicked/banned.

I don't see how the "no spam" rule is any different nor do I see any reason we should make exceptions for one rule and not another. If Mark truly doesn't want there to be any "people getting special treatment" then we should enforce all our rules equally, should we not? Yet it wasn't spam, was it unnecessarily repetitive? No. If we look @ what our rules say, "repeating the same words/phrases repeatedly". Therefore, I do believe that this example is spam and could be given a warning and/or kick for it. I have also said this was an example and is, compared to other times w/ Mark, minor. I'll also inform you that there have been people in the past who have been kicked/warned for posting similar things in similar amounts therefore, I feel, just as mark says, there should be no exceptions.

Now, I'm not saying we ban and/or punish Mark for his past ofenses, but instead we drop this argument (the forum) as there is no substantial evidence supporting Mark (screenshots) and leave this as it is, as it is simply a warning and enforce our rules as they should be in the future. :^) No exceptions. Just like Mark said, we need to stop "people [from] getting special treatment and not getting in trouble". :^) Or you could stop mini-modding, while I stop arguing with you,  and we both let the REAL staff do their job, sound good? I wouldn't call this "mini-modding". I'd call it providing evidence and supporting my case :^) And to clear up any misunderstanding, when I said "I'm not saying we ban and/or punish Mark for his past ofenses" I meant that I wouldn't go to an admin and ask them to punish Mark for this (the spamming), not that I would be going to ban him using some fake power.

Also, just to point out, but the "REAL staff" did their job and we're simply debating on the thread they made warning Mark. :^)
