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. See, I've always been something Toast related, and I'm just as emo now as I ever was... ![]() I loved your claim earlier that Toast was ambiguous, referring either to a toast (like at a banquet) or some kind for cooked bread. Seriously, it's bread EVERY time for me. I feel like i should accompany this with a poll now, but i'd hate to be that guy... It's not ambiguous. It's.... mysterious.

Idk, Warzone 2100 (okay game, you know it's open source now?), or maybe Battlerealms? (decent design, but terrible campaign) The game is actually Majesty. It's a great game, you might check it out. It's like $5 on amazon at the moment. When I was 3 I had more of a taste for fantasy than sci-fi. I've also never heard of those games you're talking about. + Show Spoiler [Stuff not even remotely related to bans] + Oh yeah, I vaguely remember hearing about that game. I have so many games to play as it is, I can't justify buying anymore right now. Speaking of fantasy strategy games, I never even beat Age of Wonders II... Oh, and Battle Realms was from 2001, underwhelmed reviewers quite a bit when it came out. It used a unit training system similar to Populous: The Beginning (if you're a bullfrog fan), but the campaign was short and kind of dumb and it just disappeared. Really cool art style and gameplay mechanics though. Warzone 2100 for whatever reason never took off. Was actually a pretty fun RTS game for 2000, units were made of modular parts and you could design and build like hundreds of different ones. Huge tech tree though. Anyway the former developer Pumpkin studios released it as a free open source game years back, you can get it and a bunch of mods and stuff off source forge now. Btw, please note that I've been back for less than three hours and already this thread has careened completely off topic. Lol. OK, then. Something I found interesting: Show nested quote + I didn't know banhammers were black and made of rubber. 0.oTheFutile was just banned by Nyovne. That account was created on 2012-05-02 04:31:42 and had 0 posts. Reason: I spy with my 15 inch black rubber banhammer a previously banned user. Do different mods use different kinds of hammers? Maybe steel or wood? maybe im just a bad person but i when a sentence starts 15 inch black rubber... i thought it was going somewhere completely different. | ||

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. See, I've always been something Toast related, and I'm just as emo now as I ever was... ![]() I loved your claim earlier that Toast was ambiguous, referring either to a toast (like at a banquet) or some kind for cooked bread. Seriously, it's bread EVERY time for me. I feel like i should accompany this with a poll now, but i'd hate to be that guy... It's not ambiguous. It's.... mysterious.

It's like $5 on amazon at the moment. When I was 3 I had more of a taste for fantasy than sci-fi. I've also never heard of those games you're talking about. + Show Spoiler [Stuff not even remotely related to bans] + Oh yeah, I vaguely remember hearing about that game. I have so many games to play as it is, I can't justify buying anymore right now. Speaking of fantasy strategy games, I never even beat Age of Wonders II... Oh, and Battle Realms was from 2001, underwhelmed reviewers quite a bit when it came out. It used a unit training system similar to Populous: The Beginning (if you're a bullfrog fan), but the campaign was short and kind of dumb and it just disappeared.

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. See, I've always been something Toast related, and I'm just as emo now as I ever was... ![]() I loved your claim earlier that Toast was ambiguous, referring either to a toast (like at a banquet) or some kind for cooked bread. Seriously, it's bread EVERY time for me. I feel like i should accompany this with a poll now, but i'd hate to be that guy... It's not ambiguous. It's.... mysterious.

Idk, Warzone 2100 (okay game, you know it's open source now?), or maybe Battlerealms? (decent design, but terrible campaign) The game is actually Majesty. It's a great game, you might check it out. It's like $5 on amazon at the moment. When I was 3 I had more of a taste for fantasy than sci-fi. I've also never heard of those games you're talking about. + Show Spoiler [Stuff not even remotely related to bans] + Oh yeah, I vaguely remember hearing about that game. I have so many games to play as it is, I can't justify buying anymore right now. Speaking of fantasy strategy games, I never even beat Age of Wonders II... Oh, and Battle Realms was from 2001, underwhelmed reviewers quite a bit when it came out. It used a unit training system similar to Populous: The Beginning (if you're a bullfrog fan), but the campaign was short and kind of dumb and it just disappeared. Really cool art style and gameplay mechanics though. Warzone 2100 for whatever reason never took off. Was actually a pretty fun RTS game for 2000, units were made of modular parts and you could design and build like hundreds of different ones. Huge tech tree though. Anyway the former developer Pumpkin studios released it as a free open source game years back, you can get it and a bunch of mods and stuff off source forge now. Btw, please note that I've been back for less than three hours and already this thread has careened completely off topic. Lol. OK, then. Something I found interesting: TheFutile was just banned by Nyovne. I didn't know banhammers were black and made of rubber. 0.oThat account was created on 2012-05-02 04:31:42 and had 0 posts. Reason: I spy with my 15 inch black rubber banhammer a previously banned user. Do different mods use different kinds of hammers? Maybe steel or wood? maybe im just a bad person but i when a sentence starts 15 inch black rubber... i thought it was going somewhere completely different. WTF.

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.

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.

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. A bit late to the punch are we. Not sure what you mean, either. As in four pages ago, Destiny's ban was all the rage. | ||

I can't promise it would have been pretty. Oy, 90% of the TL denizens don't deserve the excellent moderation they get here. Take all that crap back to reddit where they can downvote each other's posts into oblivion. I agree with tree.hugger that the issue deserved to be discussed. But you can't have a discussion when clearly half the thread isn't reading the other responses and just posting the first reaction that pops into their head without thinking of it for a single second. It's a shame, there were some really good points made in that thread and most of those posting will never see them. | ||
