speaking of trolling, Jibba just sent me a PM with the subject: Notification.

I laughed. he had me for a second.

should've known it was too good of an opportunity for a mod to pass up.

As long as you don't go out of your way to BM people, you shouldn't have to fear the banhammer. (:

I decided not to post certain times because of it. It usually lets me calm down and decide that what I wanted to post wasn't worth it later on. It's a good thing when you're pissed off and it gives you time to calm down.

If I ever have to question the value of my post, I end up not posting it. Usually.

I post this hoping my ban request got through and I won't be able to send it lol.

Other than that, no. The easiest way to get banned is to just post lazy useless stuff that's already annoying people around here. I mostly mean memes and balance whine.

I've posted some slightly aggressive stuff in General, basically telling people that not only were they wrong, they were so wrong they probably shouldn't post at all on the issue. Somehow I always got away with it
Worst I got was a warning for going off topic and "responding to a troll".
Can't say it was unexpected or undeserved

Common sense goes a long way. As long as you respect the goals of the site and those who contribute to it you'll be fine.

But I think I'm doing better now.

I don't think the mods are looking for reasons to ban and are pretty forgiving with warnings, so not too worried.

No, I can't say that I have a fear of banning. But then I lurked a year or two, mostly because I had nothing to say but it did allow me to see the culture of TL. That, and ever since making my foray on to the internets, I've always tried to be a thoughtful, reasonable, poster. And I really didn't nor do I see how I could get banned or even warned for that. It's one of the reasons TL was attractive to me after coming out of a few hell-hole forums in the dark recesses of the internet: TL consistently and fearlessly bans dumb people making dumb posts.

The only thing I'm perhaps concerned about is making a thread and getting it locked- but I think that's the entire point. I have a few ideas rumbling around, but if I'm still concerned about it getting locked, then the quality isn't there yet. Better to think about the theoretical thread longer than to fire out a garbage thread that'll generate no discussion and clog up the forum/ get locked.

The mods here don't scare me and that results in a new ban for me every few months. I'm a man of principle and I truly believe that stupid posters should be told that they are stupid posters. Or banned. But I'm not a mod.

Apparently wanting threads to have intelligent discourse is too much to ask.

Anytime I get a PM, I know immediately what it's about. No need to check anyway, it's just a warn or a temp ban. You get redirected straight to Disneyland's website when you get perma banned.

As far as the forum moderators, I'm not terribly impressed. They often seem childish and emotional when "moderating" (or censoring, depending on your pov).
Incoming fire has the right of way.

I got a temp ban for the following post:

Brian R. Wood, lead designer of Company of Heroes Online was killed in Seattle, Washington on Friday night in a car accident. He and his wife Erin were driving when they were hit head-on by 21 year-old Jordyn B. Weichert. Wood was 33 years old. His wife has been hospitalized but is in good condition. She is six months pregnant. Wood died at the scene.

Jordyn B. Weichert, who was driving a Chevy Blazer at the time, is believed to have been driving under the influence of drugs. According to reports the crash was triggered when Weichert removed her sweater or jacket driving while on a 2-way lane. While she was removing it the front-seat passenger, Samantha R. Bowling held the steering wheel. During this Bowling lost control of the vehicle and swerved into the other lane, hitting Wood's car. Three other passengers in the Blazer were killed during the accident. Washington State Patrol...

IOW, this girl got the Wood, but she was Bowling in the wrong lane.
which I still think was uncalled for...
but yeah, it's not really so hard to avoid getting banned or having your thread closed. It's true that mods are a lot harder on new posters, though, so you have to tread a bit more carefully for your first hundred posts or so.

Never scared, I say what I feel and that has gotten me banned a couple of times but I usually expect it.
Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

I'm not worried about that. If your not a dick when you are posting then you have nothing to fear.

Do you happen to be banned right now? Just noticed you only have three posts.
