I assume the banlings and mods occasionally get spiteful PM's from individuals who have been banned or temp banned. Could you show some of the more entertaining ones here?
Sure... I don't know about entertaining, most are just 4th grade-esque tirades. In truth, people tend to react one of three ways when they get banned...
1) They acknowledge the mistake they made and indicate they will not try to make it again, or if they're not sure, politely ask why they were banned.
2) They go full on retard and just start slamming the keyboard with whatever 4 letter word they can think of.
3) They try to defend/justify their actions, usually with the "well other people are doing it so they should get punished too!" or some other way of thinking they should get special treatment, or that they're an exception.
Anyways, enjoy... I'll sift through for some.

the only prerequisites for becoming an admin here must be lack of objectivity, ability to play favorites, and a general overall laziness when researching a dispute
Original Message From MrProphylactic:
My but you do not stop playing father to your favorites, the gross double standards on this site have gotten EVEN worse, I did not think that possible. The reason you have not seen me for a year is because I have better things to do with my time than waste it here, and you have reaffirmed that thought .
Do not worry I will not waste any more time here. I could make 50 dollars an hour teaching chess. Instead I was spending it for free in this community . Your inability to judge the value of that is ironic This site has gotten worse in regards to favortism ; with admins like you that do not have a clue how to objectively Judge a situation. For instance I get banned for POST LIKE THAT ???? When the numerous posts I was replying to were loads more assholeish. I am done caring I won't be wasting any more time in a ridiculous place like this , Do not bother perma-banning me for this I have multiple IP's and if i really wanted to I would just circumnavigate this ban, But I really do not care to waste my time at a ridiculous place like this anymore, where the average 1Q is 50 (lower among the admins )

Hey,
Just wanted to thank you for being a brainless moron and banning me for giving an opinion, as a fora with the reputations for having the most (reliably) terrible mods, you have lived up to your billing. Congratulations, and sorry for offending you (obv you play zerg/protoss).
I literally post here once every week or so, and its usually pretty good posts, but the fact that some moron like you (who is likely like 14ish with a name like EvilTeletubby) gets offended by a post in a thread designed to provoke balance discussion, is pretty hilarious.
Anyway im fine just reading shit anyway, theres enough retardation to not want to respond as a result of mods like you promoting just a perpetuity of stupid shit.
Best,
Matt

Original Message From Qlimax_UK:
I was giving my opinion, or am i not allowed to do that? Run TL like a dictatorship? Maybe the website should be hosted in the Middle East.
Do something with your life please, being a mod on a forum is probably your biggest life achievement.
Original Message From bdictkam:
I suggest you read some of the recent post by "energies" as to what i was combating in that thread, it wasnt just me, its a general concencus on how people have been acting. And remeber you are a retard for not considering the big picture thanks idiot!
Original Message From bdictkam:
Yeh well im not goign to put up with people with sly and disrespectful attitude hiding behind being "regulars". I make really good posts, and will continue to make them in sept, until then. While your faggot regular make poor comments whenever they feel like in little cheeky ways.
Wasnt as much a rant as a sit down for that gummybear of a person. And yeh i wont put up with selective and bias policing of a forum. I dont need a reputation on a video game forum, i was just helping different people in different threads cause i was interested and sometimes have good advice and bored until uni started.
Anyways clearly you are a loser too not seeing the greater good, so go fuck your self

have a nice day

Original Message From ElusoryX:
you really have a problem with me do you. apparently you have not replied to my previous argument against your ban. i don't see why are you a mod.
Original Message From SuperFanBoy: so I get ban for calling someone an idiot? If you treated everyone like that then 90% of the forum users would be banned right now. Also nice double standard, you ban me for calling someone an idiot and at the same time you call me a douche. Lets be honest, your mad cause the koreans dominating the MLG and decided to vent your frustrations on me, not cool. Show nested quote +Original Message From EvilTeletubby: I couldn't care less about your opinion. How about the fact you start a reply off with "your an idiot" ? Original Message From SuperFanBoy:
Tell me exactly what "acting like a douche" is?
Honestly, If you can't accept my opinion that the Koreans are out classing the foreigners, just look at the group standings, its a Korean finishing at the top of each group.. I think that pretty much speaks for itself.
Original Message From Amalaxi:
You're fucking stupid. Having Mods being retarded trolls isnt how a website should be run, I see idiots talking shit all day on these forums and they go unwarned, I post in my friends thread saying Protoss cool race and inb4warning because your dumb mod warned me for saying "play protoss" you people are fucking jokes.
Original Message From PNelson: Show nested quote +Original Message From TL.net Bot:
You have been temp banned for 1 week by EvilTeletubby.
Reason: Feel free to return as soon as you figure out that non-wavering polarized points of view coupled with passive aggressive judgmental insults aren't really conducive to a discussion.
Do it again, and you're gone permanently. People like you are forum-killers.
Do not attempt to circumvent this ban by making a new account, or your ban duration will be increased. Suck my dick.. I could careless about this failure of a website or your liberal viewpoints. Ban me permanently, I could careless. You ban people who provide substantial proof to back their claims on a daily basis. I add a SINGLE remark that insults someone and I don't get a "warning" but I get criticized multiple times and see nothing done about it.. It's obvious your allow your own bias to get involved when moderating forums. People like you are the true "forum-killers." No wonder Idra thinks TL forums are such a joke, as are the moderators. I see it with my own eyes now. Fuck you and fuck your website. I won't be back, i'd rather not contribute at all then have to deal with idiots such as yourself. You're a fat overweight queer with 15,000 posts.. Get a life. The sun would do you some good. Keep moderating with double standards, i'm sure you're a real winner in the real world! WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER! I hope you hit the jackpot someday. I was going to remove the personal insults as they're rather childish, but I thought better.. You deserve them, your actions speak for themselves.. I saw plenty of undeserved bans, mine may have been deserved but others were not. You fail to ban the "left leaning" posters who merely throw out criticism with no proof. I guess that you never saw the Duke University study that says the more education you receive/the older you get(wisdom?) the more conservative you get. Most liberals are high-school drop outs, our leftist president admitted to smoking crack.. MUST NOT BE ENOUGH PROOF FOR YOU! Accepted into an IVY league school because he's black.. You're probably a High-School Dropout, that's why you took offense to my post. If I wanted to circumvent a ban on this forum it wouldn't be difficult, have fun chasing my proxies. <3 Have a good one -PNelson

How is "cool story, bro" a meme?
Looks like you guys enjoy banning for random reasons more than having people participating in discussions.
stop the god complex, it's embarrassing.

Original Message From Ivanero: So... you mods never commit mistakes. Ok. The only thing you expect for are apologies, instead of users trying to say that maybe you were wrong and try to be constructive to improve the way you administrate your website from someone who already has nice experience on it too. You know what, I'm not going to make any move against TL, I just wanted to demonstrate a moderator that they shouldn't deal with their users like they were shit. Yeah, there are lots of negative and destructive users, but that doesn't mean that everybody is going to be like that. I didn't have any intention to be destructive or negative, and I always try to be constructive. I'm sure I could have made some real mistakes that maybe deserved a warn or ban, but in my opinion this is not the case. From your point of view yeah, maybe I made a mistake. From mine, moderation on TL is just excesive. As I already explained, it's ok to warn/ban guys who just flame/destroy/troll and doesn't put any effort on their posts (LR threads are a great example of that last thing, being more like a chat instead of a forum), but that doesn't mean to ban everybody who talks about anything balance related word, even when it is with no malicious intention and it's argumented from common sense and respect. By the way, read my first PM, I think It was balanced in respect while me being annoyed. So you've already didn't reacted positively to that. And well, you keep talking about balance whining, and I could keep saying to you that it was not a whine. It's just a thought, it's what I see and maybe I'm wrong, that's why I have no need to complain about it. SC2 it's not my job, it's just a hobby, even if there is a real imbalance I wouldn't care so much about it, but it's something I like and I prefer it to be balanced and competitive. Just that. No need to whine or complain. I just think you mods see whines/complains even when they doesn't exist, because you're so tired of dealing with that. I didn't remember why I was banned before, but I remember that the last time was something similar to this, I also speaked with the mod and he also had that kind of obstinated attitude, being so closed to think that maybe he judged so fast about an user. Since that, I tried to be more according to TL's strict rules. But seems to be not enough. Yeah, I admit I made a mistake from the point of view of TL strict rules, but from my point of view, that rules (or the way you mods ban people) are so much excesive as I think I already made it clear. But it's ok. In order to avoid being banned again I'll just try to avoid on posting anymore. Thanks for reading and sorry for my english, I need to review it and it's hard for me right now. Show nested quote +Original Message From EvilTeletubby: Lol, you're still attempting to threaten to get your way. You know, we're generally up for issuing ban reversals when we get a reply that goes something like "Yeah, I'm sorry, I made a mistake and it won't happen again, promise!". But yours is going more like "I did nothing wrong, and you need to unban me or I'll tell everyone!!!11" Guess which approach gets reacted to positively, and which one doesn't? Quite frankly I don't care when you joined the website; the point is that for YEARS AND YEARS now we have not tolerated off-topic balance whining in live reporting threads. This is the THIRD TIME you've done so (at least, that we've noticed). What would you seriously recommend us do for a third time offender??? You obviously didn't learn the first two times. So again, you can either admit that you made a mistake, or keep whining. I really don't care at this point. Your threats are still LOL worthy and indicate a complete lack of maturity on your part. For someone who is trying to paint a picture of moral superiority, you're doing a fucking piss-poor job. Original Message From Ivanero: It's not a threat, it's just I thought that I would make sure that ALL SC2 community knew about this censoring and banning issue. I just gave an opportunity for you (or TeamLiquid) to correct, but I see that obstination it's maybe something that characterizes TL. Or it's maybe just you, we'll see it soon. As I said I have several websites, I know SEO well, and I have the tools for it, also friends. But first, I'll get to TL staff, because I'm not sure if they're ok with obstinated and no-sense banning mods like you (I saw other no-sense bans from you too). Obviously, If you have looked at my register date you would knew that I knew about TL just about 10 months ago at much, so no, I couldn't have paid attention at all in the last SEVERAL years. And yes, sticking warnings/bans forever for each user has just (again) no sense. Should it be an individual purge for an user every 2-3 months if you knew something about community management. To end this, don't worry about my ban. I'll just wait 1 week to have my stream back and I'll never post again here unless this is not the real way of acting from TL global staff. Original Message From EvilTeletubby: So threats are a valid way of attempting to get a ban reverted? Nice job. That's all the more reason for it to stand. And for the record, our goal is to keep any balance discussion out of live report threads for obvious reasons. If you've paid attention at all in the last several YEARS you would know that. And yes, all your warnings/bans from before stick with you. Original Message From Ivanero: Lol? Banned previously? Really? Can you just look when that ban was? 4 months ago dude. And the first warning was... 8 months ago!! Are you saying to me that, If I get a warn 2 years ago, it still remains to now? Come on, seriously? Also, I DIDN'T complain. Tell me where I complained, because I didn't see that anywhere. I didn't even start, I just answered other guys with arguments and with no complain dude!! Saying "I think Protoss are stronger than they should be" based on the games we're watching and lots of past events, is that really a complain? I accept it like it is from my thoughts and I don't complain about that. I'm not that kind of freak-guy that takes a game/hobby as is my life depended on it. I don't understand that no-sense balance censoring, It just ruins the game to be better balanced, censoring players about discussing it with respect and education just ruins the game. It's ok to warn/ban guys who just talk bullshit about balance in destructive and disrespectful ways, but man... THIS? Can't be serious! You know what? I administrate several websites, and I know how it works, but if this is TeamLiquid's way of acting, I just won't post anymore, and that's ok, but remove my ban so I can still have my stream on. Take it like a deal and I won't make all the SC2 community to know about this kind of excesive and no-sense censoring methods from TeamLiquid. I'm sure it's not easy to do that work, and there are lots of trolls, disrespectful guys, spammers... But hey, don't pay it with users with some common sense, please. Original Message From EvilTeletubby: Nope, no mistakes. You were complaining about balance in a LR thread, and the reason it was one week is because you've already been banned previously for balance whining before at the 2 day mark. If you're not going to learn from a 2 day ban, hopefully this 1 week ban will sink in a bit more. Original Message From Ivanero:
Hi,
I received a ban from you and I think it was a mistake.
You banned me for a week basing on "balance whine", but I didn't make any whine, I just expressed a thought with arguments, without any whining or complain.
Also, you banned me for... one week??? without a warn or something before.
Also, I was just answering other guys, I didn't even started with that.
Well, I'm sure it's a mistake because it does not have any sense for me, and it seems to be really excesive.
Thanks.
That's from the most recent 12 pages I have.
