guys, i'd like to let you know that i've suffered a bit in my life. that means i know what the world is like. i also never make mistakes, because, as i've mentioned, i've been through some hardship. this qualifies me to make sweeping social critiques that spans way beyond any of our lifetimes. fuck the empty media! Seriously? Who is this faggot? I thought the colored name or w/e meant he was a mod or some shit? How fucking mad are you right now, bro? User was warned for this post
He got a lot of leniency in that thread but Im not surprised at all to see Destiny banned after going through his post history in that thread.

I agree, with everything you said actually. Can you be featured while you are banned?
Yes, Idra was featured still during his 90 day ban.

i believe when they banned idra for 90 days he made a big stink about not streaming until he was unbanned (or something like that), and the tl.net staff came out and said that he could still stream and he was just being a baby by refusing to stream for his fans. dont quote me on that though. =) i remember being upset because he said he would stream with commentary then the chill thing came up and he was being a bitch about it--totally screwed over his fans who got SOTG over 10,000 views.

Good to know that we don't need to put the thread title in the report.

yeeeeeeeeah! and we're back in business. i missed monks first few bans (way to go!) ny's (i just can't remember how to spell your username) incredible 20ish ban streak and the ENTIRE destiny thread drama...
but we're back now. great banning mods.
also, i think we should start writing the occasional obituary for the permed users. joke ones for the ones no-one ever new, but also serious ones for more recognised posters, God forbid any of them fall foul of the mods.
I also wanted to say, i thought the modding of the destiny thread was really interesting, LOADS of warnings and surprisingly few of them bans.. is this a new policy for 'highly charged' threads?

That account was created on 2009-05-21 06:06:54 and had 190 posts.
Reason: There are two aspects to this ban.
The first has to do with the complete lack of respect that you have shown members of this community, including mods, during the discussion in the "Racial Slurs" thread. In that thread, if someone else's opinion did not correspond with your own, you seemed incapable of accepting that that opinion might have any merit at all. In addition, you used language and "4chan-isms" that would have gotten anyone banned many times over.
The second has to do with your opinion that words like "nigger" and "gook" are OK to use, as long as they are used in the correct context; that is, a non-racist context. This is a view that you repeatedly expressed in the thread, and one that you have expressed on other sites and on SC2 talk shows. It is an opinion that is incompatible with the values of this community.
To be clear, you are not being banned for holding that view, per se. The fact that you expressed it repeatedly on TL, and the manner in which you expressed it, is the reason for this ban.
Note to the TL community: this ban was made after a discussion involving multiple TL mods and admins. Though I am listed as the mod banning Destiny, it was a collective decision. after all the shit he said to intrigue, this was well deserved.
Not at all surprising. Nazgul made it pretty clear when Idra was temped for 90 days that while certain people get more leniency, the TL staff still isn't going to take that crap from anyone.
Not to mention, if you wouldn't say something aloud IRL then you have no place posting it on TL. Just because it's 'de internetz' doesn't make it okay. TL is supposed to be better than 'de internetz'. I've said before I don't like Destiny, and this whole situation just made my feelings stronger. His behavior and attitude is extremely immature; unfortunately I'm sure that's exactly why he has so many fans....

The lack of crazy capitalization, 1337 speak, and sexual or poop references leads me to believe you've been into PC gaming for a while. Though the random numbers after your name and the fact that you still name yourself after what I am assuming is your real hobby, I'd say it's not been too long. I'd say you've been into PC gaming since the mid 2000s. 2005 at the most?
Age is more difficult. If I had to take a guess, I'd say between 16 and 19, probably more on the younger side of that.
-edit: Btw, you guys realize I'm now up to four temp bans? Lol, next CM incoming :D :D

Also, I miss my DT I miss being a goliath dearly, but lordy was that a long time ago Also, reading your post I'm curious how old you think I am based on that Given that your nick doesn't contain any l337sp34k, pointless capitalization, pointless numbers, sex jokes, racial jokes, or "sc2"; I would say you've been into the PC gamining community since the early 2000s at least. You're also at least 20 years old. -edit: I don't necessarily mean the BW community, but rather that you've been playing PC games and in some way following the PC gaming community since the early 2000s. Wow, cool. What would you think of me? Sorry for quoting an older post, but I'm really curious. I also do know that you're temp banned and won't be able to respond. >.> I'm still curious. The lack of crazy capitalization, 1337 speak, and sexual or poop references leads me to believe you've been into PC gaming for a while. Though the random numbers after your name and the fact that you still name yourself after what I am assuming is your real hobby, I'd say it's not been too long. I'd say you've been into PC gaming since the mid 2000s. 2005 at the most? m Age is more difficult. If I had to take a guess, I'd say between 16 and 19, probably more on the younger side of that. -edit: Btw, you guys realize I'm now up to four temp bans? Lol, next CM incoming :D :D
Close. I used to fence, but changed my user to 'Fencar' on most things, though I can't change it on TL. I really like the number 710 for some reason, and my character code got changed to that when I changed my in-game name.
As for age and when I started gaming, I've been gaming since -2000, but am only 14 years old. Go figure.
EDIT: Can you guess my first video game? Hint: It's RTS, but not a standard RTS.

Interesting ban going down. tease Destiny was just temp banned for 30 days by motbob.
That account was created on 2009-05-21 06:06:54 and had 190 posts.
Reason: There are two aspects to this ban.
The first has to do with the complete lack of respect that you have shown members of this community, including mods, during the discussion in the "Racial Slurs" thread. In that thread, if someone else's opinion did not correspond with your own, you seemed incapable of accepting that that opinion might have any merit at all. In addition, you used language and "4chan-isms" that would have gotten anyone banned many times over.
The second has to do with your opinion that words like "nigger" and "gook" are OK to use, as long as they are used in the correct context; that is, a non-racist context. This is a view that you repeatedly expressed in the thread, and one that you have expressed on other sites and on SC2 talk shows. It is an opinion that is incompatible with the values of this community.
To be clear, you are not being banned for holding that view, per se. The fact that you expressed it repeatedly on TL, and the manner in which you expressed it, is the reason for this ban.
Note to the TL community: this ban was made after a discussion involving multiple TL mods and admins. Though I am listed as the mod banning Destiny, it was a collective decision. after all the shit he said to intrigue, this was well deserved. Not at all surprising. Nazgul made it pretty clear when Idra was temped for 90 days that while certain people get more leniency, the TL staff still isn't going to take that crap from anyone. Not to mention, if you wouldn't say something aloud IRL then you have no place posting it on TL. Just because it's 'de internetz' doesn't make it okay. TL is supposed to be better than 'de internetz'. I've said before I don't like Destiny, and this whole situation just made my feelings stronger. His behavior and attitude is extremely immature; unfortunately I'm sure that's exactly why he has so many fans....

Come on Toast, you should have known better. 16 year old gamers are moody and use names that reflect that
(At one point I was Dark_Thoughts ... O.O those days :S)
I use my real name more often than not for a while but then decided I wanted a monicker and picked my favourite boss from my favourite classic SNES game. Few people get it, I think I'm getting old and others are too young.

I never know if i should write anything else, i don't want to bother mods with an essay about why something is stupid ^^
This is completely fine and it's usually a pretty straight forward warn/ban anyways.
