That sucks. I'm very surprised. He seemed like a nice guy. CleanPlayerHe is a nice guy. I never thought he would be the kind to end up banned like this :(

[QUOTE="Jaks_Secret"]I'm going to agree with Wilfred_Owen on this one. I've never seen teh_destroyer do anything out of line.Samwel_X
But the mods... They're coming outta the walls, they're coming outta the Goddamn walls!!!
Who said it was a mod that banned him? There's a reason behind the banning and it may be resolved soon. I say a suspension would've been better, but... *shrugs.* Not my call.[QUOTE="Yaeven"]I mean,they can never even take an HONEST opinion, about them,so I wouldn't be surprised if I got suspended for this post. =/GabuEx
I don't think anyone has ever actually gotten moderated who said something like that, but that doesn't seem to compel them to stop saying these things. :P
you...you tyrants! :cry: *shakes fist* [spoiler] please dont ban me [/spoiler]he is in the heaven now: giantbombesbastica:lol: haha
:( I liked him. I'll never forget when the green text from his sig turned everyone else's posts green right when the wide forums started.FalcoLXI remember that. Gotta love the bugs in the new lay out. a UCB Admin can turn ALL the posts in the board to one color if they want. Loads of fun to do that in a not main board where you get modded for it
You assume much... and have nothing right. ;)Let this be lesson to you all!
Never blaspheme the mods or Admin, lest ye be banned!

he'll be back...Anti-Venomare you sure? 30k post is quite a lot for four years. He'll probably give up and move on with his life.

Ummmm....Wrong thread? Did you want the racism thread?No, I was just referring to the reason as to why he was banned

Spill the beans. If you don't want to tell everyone, then feel free to PM me. Thanks. :wink:This is what annoys me. The moderation/administration team must've saw him do something or he was reporting doing something that breaks the TOU. You're giving the guys that uphold the rules too much stick. They're here to do their jobs, which is to keep troublemakers out of the forums and the site, regardless if they break the littlest rule in the book. Just think, if moderators/administrators weren't here, these forums would be chucked into chaos and that would be bad for everyone. Diehardgames2
Sometimes a little chaos can help break up monotony.
A little lenience on the rules now and then wouldn't spell doom for GS.

Diehardgames2yea, but you can't live your life by other peoples rules 100%, intentionally or accidentally breaking them. I don't know whether or not he deserved a ban. but the rules are the rules and i guess if he did something bad then he gets what he deserves. I think the mods try to be lenient to users unless your a repeat offender. And someone i think meantioned he had a long list of moderations. which of course with as many posts as he had might not be too bad. Now if I get banned w/o doing anything like posting naughty stuff or something extremely hateful then I will change my opinion. I have very few moderations and plan to keep it that way.

There were no aliens. The thing you saw was a dog on a gorilla carrying a pinata. Theres no such thing as mods either. Banning is caused by aliens...I mean um....the government

You are on the internet. That is your life You probably haven't been lost for years :P :D dont take that personally. that can sound mean if read that wayWat i dont get is this, he has so many posts. Well I check out the mod forums sometimes cuz I used to want to be a mod. Well on the forum it was said by a mod (I believe it was either you Gabu or Aspero) that the older the member theytry not to ban them and give them a lot of warnings cuz they are a bigger part of gamespot, well in this case it seems like he was just let go with no thought. I mean look up there that one mod (sorry I suck with names :P ) says taht he feels taht he shouldnt have been banned, well if this is the case that means that soem body banned him without even consulting their group mates.
Now I dont see the mods doing this as they worked hard for there positions, so the only explanation I can come up with is that like Gabu said
It was an admin.
But still I have never known the admins to be too strict....
But I also avoid the public forums like a disease :P
And people are making an awful lot of assumptions here. Don't jump to the wrong conclusions, people.MAILER_DAEMONWhen no-one tells us reasons behind bans, what else can we do? :| Anyway, I remember him, he was a pretty decent poster.

I think that in most bannings, the mods inform the admins that they would want to have a user banned. Since I've seen mods around nearly ten times more often than the admins, I don't think the admins understand specific members as much as the mods and take a ban request with a grain of salt.
On that subject, I feel that the tenure of the modded plays a major part in the severity of moderations.
NOTE: Not a knock against the mods or admins. Just speculation on my part.
Ok new deals peoples: Whoever spills the beans will get a friend request and I'll promise to comment on every blog they make for a month. Now that's a deal. :wink:MetalGear_Ninty*Spills beans* Yay I got a new friend :D But what was the purpose of my action?

You can hunt for information for me if you want you know.
