With all the TL moderation hate going around from the start of depetrify's reddit post. Is that really what's going on at reddit? If so, it makes me all the more happy that i'm part of TL. Rofl. Oh, another gem: They have been mod nasis' since the beginning, how did you not know this Although to be fair, that one did get 2 down votes, so I guess I should give reddit more credit than I do. | ||

no that was the answer to the first question or both, really the drama will die down soon hopefully. i got a PM earlier from some 1post destiny fanboy about NrGMonk being 'mean' to him in a PM, apparently he thought NrGMonk and DeepElemBlues are "similar handles.", (yes, really.) he kindly asked me to join his revolution or whatever, something about the mods being inconsistent about bad language and just being meanies in general or something, i had to decline the invitation. (i dont think there are any hamsters in the destiny fanboy revolution and we all know you can't win your revolution without hamsters). edit: this not-so-dangerous 'subversive' has graced us with an apperance on our favorite list! ConorGreat was just banned by Antoine. That account was created on 2012-05-03 12:48:04 and had 1 posts. Reason: you're only allowed one account, chase. | ||

Your jedi training is almost complete. | ||

At least TheKefka chose a stylish way to off himself, or rather have himself banned. | ||

TheKefka 's "SMITE ME!" gave me the idea that there could be an automation to ban users as they wish. Like when you are about to unleash your wrath on someone there would be this big red GG-button on the side which you could press at the last second and save yourself from shameful behavior and in some cases a longer ban. Or just have an option in the profiles or somewhere to ban yourself in advance. I think this kind of self-moderation could clean up the forums(especially LR's) quite a bit and up the quality across the site. What a silly thought. | ||

If someone has the discipline to ban themselves prior to making a bad post, they'll probably just hit backspace. Every time I've gotten warned or temped for snapping on someone, there's not been the sort of restraint involved that would let me cockblock myself that way. Maybe to ease things up around finals, there'd be some value, but other than that, requested bans probably don't soak enough time to be worth the effort, if I had to guess. | ||

I don't think you mean cockblock, but on the off chance you do, I'm impressed by your typing skills. "banned for this" would be a pretty funny auto-ban term, although it may overlap some people quoting others saying "you'll get banned for this". Although I think it's safe to assume that posting about someone breaking rules in that manner would receive a ban anyway. | ||
