Codified anti-stick law
Jul. 30th, 2003 09:41 amThis law is intended to prevent the use of virtual weapons or threats as goads to cause ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
jmtorres to work on any particular project. jmtorres dislikes this practice so intensely that such threats are more likely to cause her to delete all files relating to the project over which she has been threatened than to work on it, but because no one seemed to understand this, jmtorres stated she would ban users who did so, and then did.
The original law was aimed mostly and sharp and/or pointy sticks, as this was the most common weapon. (The only acceptable reason for carrying pointy sticks is with intent to build a really little fence.) This law now covers any object which is commonly held in public opinion to be a weapon (gun, knife, sword, candlestick, etc) or an object specifically stated to be a weapon or instrument of pain, torture or annoyance--including spoons,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ladyvyola. kernezelda said something about eating my brain out with a spoon awhile back, so spoons are right out. (There is no acceptable reason for having a spoon. There is no spoon.)
Final judgement on what objects violate this law rests withjmtorres. If you are unsure, ask.
Readers are not permitted to use any such objects onjmtorres, nor threaten to use any such objects on jmtorres, nor carry them on her journal. jmtorres cannot police the carrying of such objects on other journals, but if she is threatened or attacked in the comments of another journal, she will still ban the person doing the threatening or attacking from commenting in her own journal.
People who for some reason still do not take this seriously WILL be banned from commenting in this journal for an amount of time to be determined byjmtorres.
Banning does not automatically meanjmtorres hates you. jmtorres has a hatred of sticks and other prods that no one seems to take seriously, but does not generally hate the wielder. Here are some examples of what various lengths of banning mean, in combination with other measures:
All sentences will be declared at time of sentencing, althoughjmtorres reserves the right to increase any sentence due to continued annoyance.
Am I awareveritykindle was joking? Yes. Did I ban her anyway? You bet your ass I did. Am I aware she did not know of the original anti-stick post at the time she made her comment? No. However, I would not have granted any further leniency for it. veritykindle has the unfortunate fate of being made my example. I said the next person to do it would be banned, and I banned the next person to do it.
Honestly, kids, didn't your moms ever tell you you can catch more flies with honey than with vinegar?

Here are some examples of what various lengths of banning mean, in combination with other measures:- banning for one week--jmtorres still likes you but would really like you to cut it out.
- banning for a month--jmtorres is really pretty frustrated with you, actually, but expects to have cooled off after some time apart.
- banning for any length of time + turning off anonymous commenting--jmtorres is not interested in your excuses and would like you to shut up now.
- permanent banning + removal from access list--fuck off and die.
