I do fear it, but I always try to leave thoughtful posts. Sometimes, I'll type something out and decided not to post it all. Other times I might skim through all posts and make sure what I want to say hasn't been said a million times. But if you think about it, it is really a great thing. Because you must be so careful with what you say, it makes TL a great community!

I kind of want to get banned. I want to fuck up unintentionally and just to see what it is like to be banned for 2 days. Mostly I want to see the PM.

I don't want to get a gag ban or something. I want it to be 100% real.

As long as your opinion is the same as the mods you should be fine!

If you actually worry about getting banned, you're probably safe.

I actually agree with him. What the fuck is this chode shit?! An internet forum is like the lowest social pressure environment i can think of. If you can't relax and be uninhibited here, how the hell do you plan on dealing with real life pressures?

Half the people who posted in this thread deserve a smack on the face. You're men, not pussies

User was warned for this post


I could care less really if you agree with him, it doesn't mean it's still not a terrible post. THAT is what you want to contribute? Really?

Yours is just as equally poor - regardless of your views on it being the "lowest social pressure environment" (I'm not saying otherwise), it's the manner of the posts. When trying to build a productive community, "uninhibited" posts just waste other people's time. It's the exact opposite of what we want. Telling people they deserve a smack in the face for posting their own opinions and calling them pussies? Aren't you being hypocritical?

I got warned for questioning a thread that made no sense once.

I was one of many in that thread that got warned because apparently EVERYONE doesn't know how to read except that one mod. Not to mention the thread got closed for how stupid it was after 3 pages.

Other than that... I don't think I'll have to worry about getting banned anytime soon.

it's really hard to get yourself banned in TL than most people make it to be

All you have to do is not act like an idiot. I mean how hard is that?

tbh TL needs another purge

That fear is what shapes you into a good poster. Best way to never get banned is to think twice about posting. I don't think I really started posting on TL until after 3-4 years of lurking.

And your contribution is accusing and criticizing me, without saying anything relevant otherwise.

Let me tell you what my contribution was, apparently it's too subtle to grasp if you're thick as a brick.

The manner in which many users posted in this thread denotes that they live in a petty little universe, with extremely low comfort zone and social inadequacy (this is just the impression they give, not saying it's entirely true, take it with a grain of salt). You don't have to micromanage yourself at every turn, analyzing your every thought gesture or word. You don't need to seek other people's approval.

In the grand spectrum of things, being banned (even perma banned) from an online forum is like the tiniest, most minuscule thing that could occur in your life. It is not, in my opinion, an advantage worth giving up your freedom of thought and expressing yourself in the manner which you want to, not imposed by others. And if the mods encourage this sort of behavior, they are unknowingly creating even more introverted, awkward, pussy whipped - insert beta male "qualities" here - people.

All i tried is to give a wake up call, because i'll be completely honest, reading this thread disgusted me. I could already imagine myself walking all over most of these people IRL, and they wouldn't have the balls to do anything about it.

Cheers
Its only after we’ve lost everything that we’re free to do anything

Sometimes I think the mods don't do enough banning. A lot of the posts in tourney threads are absolutely pointless and are usually made by fanboys or haters. So much pointless off-topic debates go on as well. Atheism debate in the SOTG thread? Really?

Also a ban would probably actually help me get stuff done this weekend. I can't be the only one with a ton of crap due Monday.

Not true. I've probably banned more people I agreed with than disagreed with.

I got a 2 day temp ban for getting into it with a guy who started turning a cool comic about a marines life, into how marines are op. I did lose my cool a bit, but I shake my fist toward you JWD!

I think that it's a good thing that people have that hesitation to post. It allows them a few extra seconds to think before they hit that post button

Yeah, TBH, banning isn't really that big of a deal.
And if they didn't ban liberally, what would be the incentive for not posting badly?

Lol I just don't post. They're some discussions like balance stuff that I want talk about, and maybe something enlightening might come out in the discussion. But I just avoid it all together. I mostly use this site like a SC news outlet. You really can't have a discussion here I feel.
