Ban arthexis.
There is no loophole here, unlike arth’s own CfJ. If he really wants to be banned, he should vote FOR this.
Sometimes, it feels like the fair play rules bring us nothing but stuff like this.

If you don’t ban me now I promise to annoy you until you have to ban me! :) <—nvm. 
I’ll just go idle if it passes, then I can’t be banned, suckers :P
Explanation: An idle Bill Murray is not a Bill Murray for rule 1.10 Fair Play, which is the only rule that allows players to be banned.
Furthermore, the term “ban” is not even defined in the ruleset. Quaz, you fail at disarming my ploy.
Ah, but Rule 1.10 doesn’t mention the banning of Bill Murrays. It only says “perpetrator,” which you definitely are.
And, you’re right, ban isn’t defined in the Ruleset. Which means we just revert to the normal English definition which is, fortunately, very clear. Although if you complained and started to go all pie-is-square on us, we could just ban you again.
Might be a good idea to vote against this if you actually want to stick around.
Explanation: This is not Blognomic anymore, just people doing whatever they want without caring for popular opinion. I’d rather not play any game that accepts your logic as valid.
Hold on, that doesn’t even make any sense. We use a democratic system, it is literally impossible for people to “do whatever they want without caring for popular opinion.”
*Sigh*
I seem to have walked into the middle of a fight.
I’ll have a proposal up soon to hopefully resolve this situation :)
I will assume that arth was kidding about the annoying until banned part. CoV
BlogNomic is an online Nomic: a self-modifying game where changing the rules is part of the game. Players make blog posts proposing additions or alterations to the ruleset, discussing and casting votes in the comments: if enough vote in favour, the rules are changed and play continues.
The game has been running since 2003 and resets every month or so. Have a look around the wiki for more information and history. New players are always welcome and can join in the game at any time.
BlogNomic is powered by pMachine ExpressionEngine.
