Norse was the most civil and clever forum troll I ever knew. It's a damn shame that he's gone.

Have you even read the thread?
He suggested (with no swearing, or any offensive language whatsoever) that white people are cleverer than black people.
Personally, i think thats balls. But why ban him? People could either read it, not read it, laugh, agree, disagree etc
YOU are curtailing OTHER peoples freedom, by not letting them make their own minds up.
Christ, you must hate yourself so much-as you clealry have no regard for ANYONE else.

I am Norse.
I just want to clarify why I had been banned...the last straw was making racist comments in the "freedom of religion" Thread.
I would also like to clarify, that no "rape" comments had been made to marie antoinette, despite what little miss frilly knickers has said.
Anyhow, Thanks suggs, very heart-warming..I will miss the great majority of you all...It has been fun.
Narky, Daz, Suggs, Hari, Mustard. VI, Jiminski...I salute you all....I will be back.
Over and out.

thank goodness. that deserved a ban, more than any outrage I've ever seen on CC. disgusting.
I have to concur with wicked on this one.
It wasnt that, so stick that up your self-righteous, vindictive, hateful orifice of your choice. With respect.
Norse got banned because he liked free speech, and didnt think other people needed "protection" from his views-maybe he was silly enough to think that people could excercise personal responsibility and choice, or even debate the issues with him.
How silly of him-he should have known that we all have to think the same, and say the same.
And people moan about these forums being boring?!
Its because anyone with a spark of individuality gets kicked out.
I agree with everything the Mods say, like when Wicked called Dancing Mustard a piece of shit. Not very nice, but shes a Mod, so I agree.
Have to agree with this post. 100% Agreement.

He has summed himself up beautifully in that one post. He shall be remembered with the greatest respect.

Keep in mind these were all made after he was told his very next indiscretion would result in a permanent forum ban. And he was actually given one more shot. Back in November (I believe, going off memory here), he was told then the next time he crossed the line he'd be gone. So yeah DDS, he did get "one last shot" and he blew it.
Pffft. This stuff is mild, and actually quite funny. The sexual harassment is far more banworthy.

Uhm suggs....there is no such thing as absolute freedom on an internet forum. You can't post whatever you want if the site-owner doesn't think you should.
It was pretty clear that racism wasn't allowed, even in flame wars. I wouldn't do the same if I owned the site, but really it's lack's and the mods' decision and they have every right to have the policy.
Anyway, bye Norse, I love you.<3<3<3<3

Free speech is allowed, just look at the plethora of controversal topics in the off-topics forums. All we ask is you keep it within the guidelines, so no one will feel attacked. Keep in mind this is an international community here.

I realize that I'm self-righteous, but vindictive and hateful? Norse was never anything but complimentary to me personally. Why should I be vindictive?
The moderators, the people charged with the responsibility of making this website viable, must protect the users from predators. Marie Antoinette didn't come to this site, I would assume, to be sexually harassed. She never ever came to the off-topics forum, where such behavior is generally tolerated. I'd imagine an experience like the one she had with Norse would make her hesitant about doing something like... buying premium, an action that helps allow CC to exist.

Well she has premium, but you're indeed right that such an experience probably wouldn't convince a newbie to join up for premium.

You must be quite delusional over the loss of your boyfriend.
Explain to me how that monologue was not a textbook example of sexual harassment. And remember: he was joking is not an acceptable answer.

It was probably best he got banned now. He was having to go to greater and greater lengths just to get a laugh.
Still, he was funny when he wasn't being a racist twat.
Norse, you shall be partially missed.

While I am aware of the fact that wicked is a biased mod who often does not take into account all the facts regarding a situation, I have to agree with what she did in this case. Norse recieved numerous warning and kept crossing the line. He was told specifically that he would be perma banned if his acts continued, he kept at it, so he got banned. Gotta listen to the mods, whether they're out to get you or not.
I was beginning to like Norse. I enjoyed playing games with him, and exchanging feedbacks. Don't worry though. He'll be back, with a different screen name and different computer.
