Now you're known as the thin-skinned guy who can't take fails cuz u judge ppl based on who you think they are rather than what they say.  | I don't know where your getting that from, not me, Soundy's hackneyed post maybe. Thin skin has fuck all to do with why I don't support the fail, but this discussion has been settled by the mod staff, so time to move on.

How did the admins come up with a limit of 5? I don't think I've ever used more than 5 fails a day.

Your obsession over the fact that someone disagrees with your opinion on an issue, I never whined, I stated my thoughts. Some people agree with them, some don't; thats just the way life is.

for one, i don't have it and not sure why. | Its not a bad idea if its used correctly. In my situation when i first joined by the first week i was at 100 posts and i got my fail button the same week asianXL track failed all my posts so i message Aznboi about the situation ( i thought since he was nice on 6thgenaccord.com and since we both own 6th gen accords he could do something for me) however he simply replyed " dont take it seriously, its just the internet." so i thought ok i guess you are allowed to track fail people therfore i failed 10 of asianXL's posts ( i was kinda sketch because i didnt want to get banned) so SkinnyPupp decided to take my FAIL button away because i "abused it" so i explained to him what really happend and even forwarded my convo with Aznboi but unforunatly all mods think alike and he decided not too message me back.
So yes taking away the button from REAL abusers is a good idea however not from people that have good excuses. MODS should research what really happens before taking further action, instead of just flexing their mod muscles. And the what hell is up with mods not replying to messages? i basically messaged most mods and none of them emailed me back and the ones that did just gave me 3 word answers and that was " Talk - to - Skinnypupp"
If i abused my fail button and if they took it away fair and square i wouldnt care as much as i do right now but when things are done unfairly it gets me a little pissed.

Skinnypupp is the only one that is able to take away/give the button back iirc. Which is why they would all be telling you to contact him. No point in wasting people's time.

Don't contact me, leave a post in the support forum if you have any questions regarding fail/thanks. If I ever disabled fails, it was because the mods requested it, not because I have some personal issue with you.
If a mod asked you to ask me, then they shouldn't have. Post it in the forum, that's what it's there for.
