OMG @ the Army getting skull dragged so severely in the Beyonce VMA Vanguard thread that they had to close it why couldn't they just congratulate and move on?
Just because there were different rules when you joined, doesn't mean you should be put on a pedestal above the current rules. But that's none of my business.
They're not - and you know that I have no motivation to preserve some absurd deification of members. Both are warned according to current rules and in a manner consistent with newer members.

The point is that they shouldn't be permabanned for it either. They should be warned like everyone else.

You could've used that Kermit image/gif for this part, damn it.
According to the 2014 census (http://atrl.net/forums/showthread.php?t=650421) which has a good amount of votes already, only 4.4% have Britney as their main fave on ATRL. Yet let's take your lower boundary of 10 out of 167 banned members being Britney stans. That's 6.0% of the ban list being Britney stans. If we take your higher boundary of 15 that's 9.0% of the ban list being Britney stans.
Using basic maths we can conclude from this that on average Britney stans get banned more than other stans. I'm not sure if that was the conclusion you were going for.
Hence why we generally call bullcrap on the claims of bias towards us.

Why was my thread closed? It was a completely valid discussion. If you think the title is too "prone to cause a mess" can I at least edit it to something like "Has media coverage of shooters affected your perception of white men?".
EDIT: A "disruptive" warning point? SERIOUSLY? This is an important and relevant discussion.
why couldn't they just congratulate and move on? 
just like all the monsters who were spamming katy's prismatic thread did.
Such a long thread. 
Woo lord, y'all were feeling some kinda way this morning.
