God man... you get 1000 posts in and you decide to spend the next 24 bashing Plexa? Not a particularly good way to stick around.

And of course... I couldn't possibly not include this one, since it appears to be a self-toted masterpiece. I can only imagine what great things could be done in the time this man devotes to writing these things. But if 'onlys' and 'buts' were candies and nuts, then every day would be Erntedankfest...

DUI_ was just banned by Chill.

Reason:

SnK-Arcbound was just temp banned for 2 weeks by Kennigit.

That account was created on 2005-03-18 15:52:12 and had 150 posts.

Reason: I'm banning you based on your views on homosexuality. You have no right to complain.

The guy was already on our radar for other things. But yeah, insulting one of the biggest site contributers is a good way to seal the deal.

I actually can understand parts of R1CH's posts. Though most of the stuff is complete gibberish, I can usually make out some of it by inferring meanings of these outrageous terms...
On the other hand, I'll vote no.

I'm in a network and telecommunications program, so I guess I do understand the majority of his posts.

Aside from that, I really recommend the JF vs Terran game if someone still wasn't convinced.

It always brings a smile to my face whenever someone on TL mistakes someone else for me.

That's how legends are born, first through acts, then through exaggeration, then through people mistaking others for you, then through stories, then through..... a bible.

I cant believe someone was banned because of their views on Homosexuality, unless he spammed "Fags are evil" or something, seems completely ridiculous to me.

Should I reveal the secret behind the third IRC comment?

Of course not! That would ruin the mystique :D

I usually appreciate making an appearance on PE but I would just like to note that the blog entry for me (YouTube!) isn't as promising as it sounds, as they have since contacted me saying that since I don't own the rights to StarCraft I cant post extra long videos (or own the rights to OGN... or something).
