Title: Dweeble
Post by: TeaLeaf on May 25, 2003, 01:46:12 PM
There was an entertaining thread in Smite's Spray Shop this morning that was started by Dweeble, friend of our beloved Trip/U-Turn.  The website that Dweeble has set up and that he pimps in his MeatHook PCS forums signature, promotes CS cheats and hacks.  Now you can colour me the happy police (again) if you like, but I believe that promotion of this type has no place on the MH PCS boards.

I recommend we immediately request that he voluntarily remove his signature within 24 hours (we should explain why) or we delete his account.  

Does anyone else agree or am I turning the forum into a controlled zone that the SS would have been proud of?  If you agree then I will send him a politely worded PM.  Cast your vote now, or I will never know how much like Secret Squirrel I am becoming.....

Just ask him to remove his signature as he can easily re-apply.
Or we can do it for him.

Also im thinking he may have just come on to ask that one question anyway.

The guy promotes cheating. Kick his TANGO and ban him from the forum.

Seems that we unanimity.  I will send him a PM requesting immediate removal of his signature or a ban will result.

Text of PM message to Dweeble.
QuoteHi Dweeble

I am one of the MeatHook PCS Admins and as such have the unpleasant task of requesting the immediate removal of your forum signature.

You will appreciate that given the ethos of the MeatHook, PCS and dMw, it is totally unacceptable to have a website promoting cheats and hacks advertised in your signature within our forums. We try to and generally succeed in providing a safe haven from such unethical behaviour, hence the great community spirit we engender between the MHPCS regulars. We therefore hope that you will comply with this request within the next 24 hours.

If you do not comply with this request, then with regret, we will be forced remove your account from these forums.

Thank you ion advance for your cooperation.

Dweeble has removed all references to cheats/hacks from his site.  He is instated (albeit with poor spelling) a statement saying that cheats are not supported.

QuoteSo long as your site remains 'ethical' we do not currently have a problem with your signature.

Thanks for the feedback.
