Grampz was just temp banned for 1 week by p4NDemik. That account was created on 2010-11-30 04:04:27 and had 1498 posts. Reason: Chill. There are ways to express your distaste without slinging insults. Leave Chill out of this!  | ||

Not that I'm necessarily defending him, but am I missing something? I don't see anything that's especially offensive to women there, unless it's been edited. At least, not any more offensive than it is to anyone... | ||

That made me laugh because I'm stupid. Also page 1000 was amazing, it and the thread about destiny have made today hilarious. | ||

What is most surprising is, this isn't even front page on SC Reddit....honestly that thread should just get closed. Making more problems than it could ever hope to solve. I disagree, I think it's good that we have these discussions. | ||

That account was created on 2010-09-07 13:44:14 and had 95 posts. Reason: Seriously, if people are angry enough they can figure it out themselves. They don't need fucking roadsigns saying "THIS WAY TO E-MAIL RAZER." Great call on that temp ban. Also: Damn you Destiny thread! I am actually missing TakeTV Reloaded Invitational Games! | ||

Nrgmonk off to a good start. The destiny thread is starting to leak out though it will consume everything i think. | ||

Eh, I don't think there's much getting discussed in that thread - more like a bunch of people making ignorant remarks with a few decently thought out opinions that mostly get ignored. It's certainly good entertainment though. | ||

The bans are amusing, though. And most of the people who got banned on page 1000 should be back in a few hours to comment. | ||

Now, other than for the sake of discussion the only other ulterior motif I could think of is to raise awareness of the shenanigans Destiny pulls in order to get him un-featured on TL, since randomly un-featuring him would cause a storm in and of itself. If only people would just discuss that instead of the mayhem it would be interesting! | ||

It's like a honey-trap for rabble rousers and drama queens =) | ||

Its the way society is now apparently. People get all up in arms about stuff that REALLY doesnt concern them, (does destiny calling someone a name really have any effect on you going about your daily life?), calling for blood, then getting bored in a week and forgeting that it ever happened or that they actually "cared." Just look at Ozzy Guillen and the castro situation in baseball earlier this year. It isnt isolated to TL or the internets at all. | ||

And knowing the age of many people in the community, especially the ones who registered recently, I'm sure they have no idea what real maturity is. The bans are amusing, though. And most of the people who got banned on page 1000 should be back in a few hours to comment. Well although the Destiny thread doesn't look like a "civil" discussion, these kinds of issues are going to continue to occur as the scene evolves and more personalities enter the business. It's good to get a perspective of how people react to certain controversial incidents, so that it serves as a lesson later on. In the meanwhile, we here just enjoy the occasional clever ban reasons by our witty mods as they crack down the downright silly and unfit individuals in that thread. | ||

Ten Commandment has about 500 pages, the automated banlist has about 1000 pages. Does this mean that 2/3 of the people don't read the rules and get banned for it? | ||

Yes, but how much of that 500 pages is idiots begging for Dota2 keys? Seriously, that's got to be the absolute single stupidest ban reason ever. Just for the sheer amount of facepalm. | ||
