That would impossible, since I've tracked him over the past few days and he hasn't made any. That's because out of the Tech regulars, he's the most level headed one. I always kind of figured he'd be first, or at least best bet. He's probably going to keep it to people who absolutely fail at civilized debate, truly malicious advice, and closing duplicate threads. And even then, we're more likely to see closures, warnings, and possibly temp forum specific bans. That's always kind of been the trend there. Hell, he even gave an unofficial warning the other day, after getting the hammer, instead of a red text warning. Heh. Who's the least level headed forum vet?  Actually, now days, probably skyR. There was a time it was unquestionably me, but not anymore, unless you count not having the patience to post in Tech much as being less level-headed. skyR?! He seemed like such a nice guy, but then again the last time I visited the tech forum was when you were still a marine.
The less I post, the more like my old posting he gets. Especially since before, moderation was, on a good day, hit or miss.
The more times you hear the same stupid, the harder it gets to rebut it politely.
Don't get me wrong. I <3 skyR, and I don't think he's excessive. I just think he's the least calm these days of the regularly posting tech vets.

:O Yeah, this still happens to me every time there is a PM ;; cLAN.Anax and I occasionally send each other PMs that look like warnings as jokes. DAPHREAK PMs me all the time and tells me I'm a worthless human being. Even if there is merit in his criticism, I must say it does cut deep.

Should we start sending you hate mail so you can become as thick skinned as KwarK? You might need some practice.

XD the burden of a banling. Meh, I assume that most people that post threads that get closed are either A. in the wrong section or B. not substantial enough in their current form. On the most general of curves it would seem like neither are worth engaging in a dialog.

-- everytime I get a PM now I am expecting hatemail--
Number 1 reason why I never want to be a banling.

Then why do you obsess over your efficiency in reporting

You think that because I value my reporting I want to be a mod? I've said it before and I will say it again: I'm happy with having the power my shiny report button brings me, moderation is just not my thing, all the needless hate being the number one reason I don't want to engage in it.

You don't need to be a mod to get hate PMs. I've got an inbox full of them. Eight of which I still haven't opened because the subjects read, for example, "Are you on crack?" So, without the responsibilities, prestige, respect, or power, I am in a way living the mod experience

I used to get a lot of hate PMs before but now these guys either have disappeared or banned and most of these people are the same guy lol.

I wished the same, then I got into a PM argument with a batshit irrational idra fanboi. The only warm and fuzzy feeling was the rage slowly building up in me as I witnessed the unfathomable stupidity and disregard for facts. Sigh -_-
Careful what you wish for etc.
EDIT: Actually IIRC it was two idra fanbois, pretty much in the same timeframe as well.

I'm pretty sure I'd laugh for a good two hours. Unless someone was trying to troll me about it *cough cough*

don't be stupid, its not fun to get hate.
rasers was just temp banned for 1 week by semioldguy.
That account was created on 2010-02-12 08:54:19 and had 512 posts.
Reason: I'm just going to copy this from a previous ban of yours:
"You are still making horrible, incendiary posts in topics where SC2 and BW interests intermingle after repeated warnings and bans."
lol, I knew why he was banned even without keeping up with his latest posts, he always gets banned for the same reason.

It is fun when the other person's hate is backed by sheer stupidity. I actually enjoy reading their illogical points simply because you wonder, how a simple argument you made affected the other person so much that he is compelled to write again and again to disprove your point and maintain his pride. It is highly amusing to see adults write with the reasoning of teenagers.
