Considering Caihead has been active here even discussing the bans related to the Connecticut tragedy, I'd have imagined him to know better. >_>
Also thanks for answer Kwark, guess I've never noticed that only admins revise ban lengths.
edit: ooh it was an edit, wonder how this will end up.

I am truly amazed by the number of people who think this can actually work, saying your opinion and then immediately saying to take it to another thread like that makes it ok. I've seen about 5 posts like that already.

Who unbanned me? I was just gonna sit out my ban like a good boy and I made that edit because I realized I was being stupid rather than trying to circumvent the ban and I didn't pm a mod.

I click report on that post and it came up with red text.
I think reporting is unnecessary in that thread. I don't understand why so many people use these opportunities to become so argumentative - but then again it makes perfect sense.
:'(

I think only admins are able to unban. IIRC chill got tricked into banning someone and then couldn't unban them and had to get an admin.

Heard about the shooting at work today. Not surprised it's got 20+ bans already. I am surprised the first one's farv, though. O_O
Just got off work and I'm slowly working my way through the ABL discussion.

I didn't speak to the moderation staff, they spoke to me. No bitching was actually done, the tweet was very matter of fact, plus it was clarified in a follow-up tweet.
So whats the problem?

Clearly I need to inform myself better. Apologies sir.
Edit: Read your twitter, you were bitching and "and if you have the nerve to speak up against it? BAN" is very unfair considering we have an entire subforum devoted to feedback.

That quote is taken out of context. As to whether or not you think that's bitching well that's just like, your opinion man
