This post is 100% SPAM.

Spam (shortened from spiced ham)[1] is a canned precooked meat product made by the Hormel Foods Corporation, first introduced in 1937. The labeled ingredients in the classic variety of Spam are chopped pork shoulder meat, with ham meat added, salt, water, modified potato starch as a binder, and sodium nitrite as a preservative. Spam's gelatinous glaze, or aspic, forms from the cooling of meat stock.[2] The product has become part of many jokes and urban legends about mystery meat, which has made it part of pop culture and folklore.[3] Through a Monty Python sketch, in which Spam is portrayed as ubiquitous and inescapable, its name has come to be given to electronic spam, especially spam email.[4]

In 2007, the seven billionth can of Spam was sold.[5]

Serious question here: If you guys are so continuously scared of Community Issues, why don't you just shut it down for good? You've done it already with the Gutter so there's precedence, and you could always claim that other sites don't have one subforum for these grievances.
It's been discussed as you can well image. It seems like redefining what CI is about is a better step in my opinion. Also, "you guys" might not be as accurate as you think. I am coming here by myself and do not talk to the guys about stuff before I post here. That's why Nai and I
aren't saying the same thing and why I am not committing the anything - we have different ideas about a lot of stuff. In the end though we huddle before anything happens and the feedback we get here is discussed.
"You Guys" means iridium.

I mean I guess I'm not high on the "list of people staff is going to heed advice", but the point of CI is to have feedback from the community about the site's features so that the staff can improve their policies/show the userbase they care about their opinion. At this juncture either the userbase is too aggressive or the staff at large is not capable of interacting with the userbase, and we get these repeated complaints that the userbase is too abrasive and that CI is a festering wound on MTGS.

I'm not even pointing fingers here. I'm just saying that you (as in iridium you) seem to have a problem, wether it is your fault or the userbase, but instead of taking actions and fixing the problem (either by locking/deleting
CI or by having a thicker skin) you guys seem content to keep complaining that the userbase harasses the staff on a daily basis, etc... That hardly seems productive which is why I asked you the question in the first place.

As for other sites with a CI forum, may I point out the obvious that this site has one? we have made it insofar in this site, to date still no thread about userbase harassment. Though you could argue we have several orders of magnitude samller userbase. this said we have some prominent CI warriors posting regularly in this subforum, and these walls have yet to crumble.

No, Spam is made out of the stuff that isn't the loin. The good meat is packaged separately and sold to local food cooperatives.

Fair enough. I did kill your joke, so I guess you should have killed it deader. :/

I withdraw my post that was above on the grounds that I thought wat (G_R) said was funny, but failed to appreciate it properly.

I would like to replace it with:

FTR, kpaca, I've decided this is a drama-free zone for me. So, this be the last time I will bother talking about that kind of shits.

I'm not talking about bannings, CI warriors, you, me, or anyone in real life, etc. #nomoreforumdramaz

The ban appeal policy (here) has been updated slightly.
Instead of a default one year off, it's a default six months off until another appeal is considered.
Similarly, if you are denied after six months, it's another six months off.
Evading the ban doesn't add time on top of those six months, it just resets the timer back to six months.

Yes. Inevitably I have bias. No matter how hard a person looks at things objectively you will approach things with bias...

I can tell you that we do not all see eye to eye on a lot of things though. I am more obnoxious and uptight about some things and much more Laissez-faire about others.
