Too many... I'm pretty sure I only deserved one. And "Long term members and recognizable names are left alone"? Bullshit. In fact, most of the long term members are no longer here because of bans, just search the subject and you'll see.
Many warnings. A few bans. I recently got banned for a week for hinting that the OP of another thread was mentally challenged...

Ok, so I made fun of his spelling and called him a retard, but everyone else was thinking it. The mods on these forums have become garbage. In my book, garbage is a euphemism for opinionated fairy fuck. Let's see how many weeks I get for this one.
This is a sequence of characters intended to produce some profound mental effect, but it has failed.
Called a poster an idiot, and not even upfront but more like "How much of an idiot do you have to be to believe this stuff", or something to that degree.
To be honest I have done far worse on this site and gotten away with it but as people have said, attack the post not the poster, it is the same thing in any case.
I do not think I have anyone that I consider an antagonist on this site.
Sure there are people who have opinions that differs from mine by bloody lightyears.
But most of the people that fall into this category and are people whose posts I bother to read are either intelligent or interesting, ( or both ), enough that I like them anyhow.
Trashing a moron just is not fun, I am anti PK and I do not like attacking anyone without the means to defend themself.
Allthough I have been known to make exceptions to that rule.
Just realised I got a bit of topic here, sorry for that.

One ban. Was overturned in 24 hours via contacting Kunou. Most of the newer moderators here at the end of my moderation in my opinion didn't know the proper way to deal with things, or to even really read and understand what was going on.
Kunou's a good guy though, hopefully through some time he can show them old-school moderating and how to keep this forum from being an inferno, but still retaining our freedom to speak.

Haven't posted much lately though, so I've been clean for the last month or two.

I have 2 warnings and 1 ban. The mods are over zealous and only regulate people they don't know. Long term members and recognizable names are left alone. MMORPG needs to regulate their mods, or allow us to defend ourselves. When I get issued a warning, its based entirely on the discretion of one person. I have no way of explaining the context or defending my opinion. I try my best to stick to the forum rules, but it seems like people here are trigger happy and looking for excuses.
It's completely untrue to think that only new members get banned and warned, as I've been a member of this community for some time, and I get warned and banned all the time. It's more amatter of whether or not your views jive with whatever mod happens to respond to the report that was issued on your post
ps. I hate wireless keyboards
Your argument is like a two legged dog with an eating disorder...weak and unbalanced.

Hahahahaha! Now that true comedy.
Hate to burst your bubble, but I've had warnings and bans ( including a 14 day one ) in the double digits.

Did you get a warning for what you wrote in that thread?
1 ban, apparently the mods don't like visual jokes involving women in 2 piece swimsuits. Dang thing wasn't even a bikini
No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee. Hemingway
Four or five suspensions, 2 of them overturned almost immediately.
So I started to walk into the water. I won't lie to you boys...I was terrified. But I pressed on, and as I made my way past the breakers, a strange calm came over me. I don't know if it was divine intervention or the kinship of all living things, but I tell you, Jerry, at that moment ... I was a marine biologist.
Oh i should add...none of my bans have come from religious or political threads. They have all been a result of comments made in threads related to stupid stuff like sports and games...I got banned for responding to a post in which a guy called football a "wussy girl's game" when I told him that he didn't know what he was talking about and that he should just keep his mouth shut...meh.

No bans. No warnings. No deleted posts. No moved posts.
(Knocks on wood.)
One 3 day ban, or was it 5?
Related to the vanguard release.

I believe i've had 2 warnings and 1 ban for sure. I dont believe I should have been banned because they should have just sucked it up.
