[QUOTE="dracula_16"]After what he did with his last few posts Matt definitely deserved it. Doesn't matter if he was nice or not to you.Pirate700
What did he post about?
He repeatedly called someone a child. Must've done it at least four times. There's a link to it if you can go find the official thread about his banning.

If you get so attached to a site that you're actually scared about getting banned, you should get banned.

Hint: people are attached to the folks they interact with here, not to the site. And being social on forums is not, in fact, disallowed by the ToU, so folks who enjoy coming here should not, in fact, be banned...Says the person with 117 posts. :P After a while you get attached to this site.[QUOTE="Bloodbath_87"][QUOTE="Bullet-XVIII"]It's just a website... who cares if you get banned or not?Bullet-XVIII

I don't see the logic in that. It's not like people are quivering in the corner. :P Just worried that they will get the boot.
I'm surprised I'm not banned yet 8) :DBrainkiller05
Actually you are. We have a completely separate mirror site that banned users are directed to now and we just have bots that do all the posting. They don't get upset and the user doesn't get to post on the "real" forums.

It's just like hellbanning on something awful's forums; they ban people but don't tell them. They continue to be able to post and see their posts, but no one else does ^_^[QUOTE="duxup"][QUOTE="Brainkiller05"]I'm surprised I'm not banned yet 8) :Dxaos

The logic is that if you spend so much time posting at a site that you become 'addicted' to it or otherwise attached, you should definitely take a step back and realize that it's only the internet, it's only a website.

addicted and atached are different things, jusst posting lots won't make you scared of being banned, this site is much more close nit than alot so if you're banned you get cut off from people you know

I'm not addicted, I can stop anytime! I swear! Ok, I see what you mean. Like xaos's said though, it is more of the people you are interacting with.
[QUOTE="Bullet-XVIII"]So then don't get banned, and you have nothing to worry about.SavageM2
That's the point, people aren't trying to get banned. They are worried they will. (well, except suicide threads. They know what's coming to them :x)
They shouldn't be worried unless they've got a moderation history of Hitler.

Just saying not to be worried doesn't always work. That is why there is that fear aspect always there for some. (you want to speak your mind, but not over step your grounds)

So then speak your mind, but do it with respect. I for one like to swear and talk smack, but the rules are against it here so I won't do it.

:) I know. Sometimes it just feels like a lack of freedom. (I do it with respect, at least I hope that is how I come off, because that is what I am trying to do) Sometimes what one person sees as funny, others might find offensive. You don't want to step over that line.

Consider the minimum age of 13, they have to protect themselves from certain liabilities. It's all understandable.

At the same time, I find it ironic that these minors are allowed to post in game forums that are rated mature, which can involve talking about certaing things within the game that is not suitable for minors.
