Wrong on many different levels.
1) Some Rippers have been warned and temp. banned.
2) The "people who point out the people who are doing this" are not all innocent. Some had gone into really personal attacks. There is a difference between "Rippers are going crush your team!" and "You are poor, stupid, and will always work in McDonalds."
3) There was guy who sent several insulting PMs to a Ripper, then immediatly blocked all incoming PMs from that Ripper. This guy was attempting to game the system by baiting the Ripper to respond to his jerk comments in public, thus getting the Ripper banned. The guy trying to game the system got off scot free.
4) If you hadn't noticed, all of the Rippers were taking it easy until Mike Rogers decides to throw a unprovoked cheap shot at several Rippers for no reason. It is inaccurate to say that there are Rippers that are only trolling in WEPL and nothing else.
Thats true, Rippers are not the only ones making the forums a waste of space, they are possibly the most visable right now, but only because they clump together and it looks worse than it is.
But it wasnt an unprovoked cheapshot, the provocation was there, if you (Genral usage of you that refers to everyone not just you.) post that you deliberatly want to make a reputation as intentionally making a forum a hostile environment, then dont complain when someone calls you out for it.
Its NOT just Rippers, but you cant say it NOT ANY Rippers, so there is not a lot of morale high ground to be had.
PS: You might want to re read No1 on your list, and then this thread again, personal attacks are fine as long as they are not directed at Me then I take it?
