For those who don't know he had the animated DJ for an avatar, and Blanka in his sig.. I just noticed reading over an old post.. Probably for getting into it with DS alternate account# 45335-43788 in the most known user thread. :(

Bummer, he was a good poster. A bit racy at times, but that made his post worth reading to me.

Could he really have been banned for retaliating to DS? DS is a chronic ban-dodger who makes a point trying to provoke people here; why would people be banned for reacting to a troll?

Its amazing to me that people actually care. We all know he's just gonna come back with a new name. Whoever posts in this thread with only 1 post count is probably him. There are ways to get over the ip ban thing.... I'm just sayin. Not that I would know! :O

I don't think so, there's a lot of people who got into a debate with him including myself. And Misanthropic was more tolerant than I was. Hopefully the mods understood, I hope he was banned for another reason.

There is really no evidence to suspect that that really is the case. I guess we wont be finding out exactly why he got banned anyway.

While i liked him as I said I am not suprised. His posts often drifted into the offensive and he seemed to have to talk about his personal drug use at every oppurtunity. I am sure it was a cumalative effect,not just one thing.

I was in that thread, and he quoted DS on some pretty racy posts, not to mention he had his own racy posts to come back to DS with. I think this is what caught him up, unfortunately.

The mods really need to stop doing this. The guy was a decent user and certainly didn't deserve to be banned, regardless of his moderation history or what he did in that DS thread.

I can agree with the cumulative effect as well, I just think that thread was the straw that broke the camels back.

Plus they kind of can't be biased. If they let every semi-popular user by with just warnings because they're popular, it wouldn't be as fair a system as it is now. Of course, I'm not saying that the system in place isn't fool-proof... I'm saying it's better than it could be.

There're no rules saying that a user must be banned after a certain amount of moderations, it's completely up to the mods. Enforcing rules is not the same as banning and suspending users.

There're no rules saying that a user must be banned after a certain amount of moderations, it's completely up to the mods. Enforcing rules is not the same as banning and suspending users.

It is based on what the mod thinks, but every mod takes into account frequency of each moderation in a user's history, how many moderations they have, how many total posts they have, and (I think) how long they've been a member of GameSpot.
