On this account I've only been warned 2 or 3 times. Once for posting "First", once for martyring and i forget the reason for my oldest ban. Oh well, at least this account is still ban free.

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


Of course. I only signed back up because of the lineage 2 thread. Otherwise, it's been made clear that the mods don't care about about the forums' intellectual value so I wasn't planning to ever post here again.

The funny picture thread is what keeps me checking in though

Seriously just stay mannered and normal and its all fine.
If you have fear getting banned you probably already are a bad poster and shouldnt be here anyways.
I mean its not like TL.net mods are just banning randomly without a solid reason.

Behave like a normal person would behave in real life and yournot getting banned, its not hard.

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).


Your edit just made your post a hundred times worse by complaining about the mods. You may be a man of principle, but there's being principled and there's being a principled jerk. Which may not be your case, but there's certainly an attitude I'm picking up from this one post...

I try to think my posts through. I'am not a coherent speaker or poster by any stretch of the imagination, easily losing my point. But I do try an extra notch on tl. Mainly to not look as a buffon because theres so much good posts and to say anything and not thinking it through would mean its a waste of typing ^^
I wonder how long I've been here, 2002/2003? did this exist back then? I think its been very very long O_o
Just because you can now store where everyone was and is, what they like, what they fear who they talk to and who they love. It does not mean we should so spy upon our fellow man in a dystopia far worse then 1984

well ive been posting for a little while now, i dont post that often though... and ive only gotten one temp ban, although i dont think i really deserved it.

in relation to what was happening to the thread, the comment i made that garnered a temp ban was a bit over the top. i have had no warnings on my account, i made a stupid comment that insulted someone well-known in the community so i got a temp ban. i thought it was pretty ridiculous that i immediately got temp banned instead of getting a warning, considering i have no warnings on my account at all but eh, whatevs

as long as you try and post something constructive, nothing will happen... although i do think the admins are pretty overzealous quite often... but id rather have over the top admins than no admins at all, i guess.

I made a meme post once and got a warning, I reread the 10 commandments again it will never happen again ><
I felt so ashamed.

Also had a thread closed once, but in retrospect, that was for the best.
I have the utmost respect for the mods here and appreciate the atmosphere they are trying to preserve on this forum.

I realised that political discussions and opinions are not wished for in political thread here. It will get you banned, even without getting personal or insulting in any way. Ever since I indeed wonder "what are they going to ban me next for?", even though I'm usually a very considerate person on forums up to often beeing suggested as a mod on boards I'm very active in. I practically never got banned anywhere outside TL (exept for a single readmore 3 day ban for a balance complaint in SC2 beta in match comments).

What's your old ID? I'd like to investigate some of these unjust bans.

I read this thread as "Fear of Baneling"

You really shouldn't be worried about getting banned so much that it keeps you from participating in the forum. From what I gather, the mods here are very understanding and don't unleash the ban hammer unless you post something that's clearly offensive or you're an obvious troll.

Yeah same here. I have a total of one ban and one warning (both were completely justified) and I've tried to clean up my act a little since then. I post alot when stuck at work though and it's easy to let work-related irritation get the better off you resulting in shitty posts. So far the mods have been merciful though

Ive been banned once for being stupid (not reading thread properly + hangover = mani ban) and then one for a meme iirc

Im unsure i deserved the one for not reading thread (but mani was on a purge so I gues it cant be helped, and I havent been banned / warned for a half year soon so its going good =D ).

I been banned for something else, cant remember what though

if you are scared to post a comment thinking its borderline, you are probably wrong, and shouldn't post it. just be a normal sc fan without elitism, and without a big mouth, and you'll be fine.

4 years and i'm fine

I've been banned once since joining in 2008, and it was because I was posting in a bad mood. I don't really fear being banned because 999 out of 1,000, I haven't been banned. I think those are good enough odds to not sweat it.

However, I also lurked without an account for about 6 months and read the 10 commandments a couple of times before signing up. EZPZ.

And for the tiny 2 day ban that I got, I could not believe how much I need to be able to post. I still visited during the ban and came across 5 threads where I could have contributed positively and I couldn't and I started to have withdrawals (the bees are on my skiiiiiiiiiiiiin D= )

I'll probably get banned for saying this, but martyring is pretty much an auto-ban on TL that a lot of people are victim of.
