Yesterdays-Civil-War Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Why were TM and Broski banned? Why were TM and Broski banned? Because they broke forum rules Holy crap!

Coma16 Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Additionally, we'll be creating a "banned member" thread to be pinned and locked in Support. We'll use the thread to record the details of members that get banned, as well as any relevant history in explaining our reasons for doing so. I'll give more details in the thread itself when it's posted shortly and add a link to it here. The mod who performs the ban will make the post.Can a mod give a status on this please? hooray for transparency Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nosaj Thing Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 I, for one, don't care about that thread. Why would I want to discuss whatever happened with members that are no longer part of the forum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussTCB Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 I, for one, don't care about that thread. Why would I want to discuss whatever happened with members that are no longer part of the forum?That's how I've always felt as well, not to mention the fact that almost all bannings are a result of wildly obviously trolling and/or breaking of rules.

For example, Randy mentioned that he was banned for calling you a not-so-nice name in a PM. I'm guessing there is much more to that story as it seems inconceivable that someone would get banned from a private-message argument. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call a mod a cunt via PM and wouldn't you expect to get a ban?I would think that would be the perfect way to get canned personally.

maynard Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Transparency? People break the rules and get banned. Don't think the mods owe us any explanation. The banned people will go to MSL's site complain (and lie) about it anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because by doing so, other lapdogs and asslickers would question their actions or fuel the shit talking on another forums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree as it was behind closed doors, but that's just my opinion. What if he said 'goof' or 'asshole'? Is that still ban-worthy or do are you offended by cunts specifically?Maynard- your obsession with bringing up MSLs name into discussions is getting lame.

It would be a very simple, closed thread where the mods would post when a user is banned and that is all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
