Oh for the day when "banned without warning for such posts" was a thing that actually happened.

I do think that banning without warning is in bad taste unless there are EXTREME reasons to do it. You're just going to alienate the user whom won't come back to the community. A warn and then ban at second strike is more likely to make the user think about his actions and go towards the right path in order to avoid being actually banned.
Then again, this is my personal opinion through moderating experience in this and other forums, but seeing how the specific rule had never been enforced prior to my joining the moderation here, I don't feel bad for not enforcing it as strictly as the rule says; I personally think the rule is mostly there to give us the power and entitlement to take action whenever needed, but it's best not to abuse of it.

We've got no problem doing it.
The huge problem at the moment is for people who don't watch dubs, fansubbers do a better job at releasing anime than any Japanese disk we could buy. When you consider typesetting, styling etc. Then on top of that -- it's free.

Crunchyroll and other such streaming services would like a word with you. The bit of it being free is a whole other can of worms.

I don't think this thread is going anywhere good.

You do realise CR has no typesetting in it's releases, and it's a stream....again, weaker releases than elsewhere.....

Yeah, which is fine since you don't need typesetting. And it's a stream... duh, you're either not paying for it in general or paying the small fee for hd. You're not entitled to a file unless you actually pay for something. Crunchy is perfectly watchable as is. And on top of that -- it's free. :roll:

I watch all new anime on Hulu .-.

We have Hulu Plus so we can watch it on our 360 and PS3 and it updates with new anime within a few days of it coming out in Japan. Then again, Hulu is also available online for free, just without the full library :P

I know the certain countries have certain blocks in place but to that I say STOP HATIN' FREEDOM AND MOVE TO 'MURICA. :awesome:
