This thread is for discussing recent bans. Don't discuss other topics here. Take it to website feedback if you disagree with a ban or want to raise an issue. Keep it civil.NOTE: For those of you who want to find the actual ABL thread where the bans are posted. Please look in here: https://tl.net/forum/closed-threads/ |

:D I was waiting for someone to say that haha I want to chip in and say that I am also a fan of seeing discussion about the legitimacy of bans, like daphreak said. Mockery is definitely the best though.

Fine, I changed/reworded the mod note. I meant you just can't complain about bans here. This has been a rule forever and nothing has really changed. I'm just putting it in writing.

Ah, peace has been restored 
Yeah, I was feeling a tad reckless last night XD. I was just about to explain to one poster I think double-breasted means the two rows of buttons and bat wing is when the edge of the bottom of the jacket is the same as the sleeves... that's hard to explain. At least I learned something I guess

"Double breasted bat-sleeves" were too much of a temptation for me..

This is a light-hearted thread that focuses on the mishaps of everyday posters. Of course there will be some discussions here and there, that if for certain, but for serious questions about moderation it would be best suited for website feedback.
If every person came to this thread to argue the case of a ban, this would quickly turn into a "Why was this person banned/ warned etc;". Frequent posters of this thread would try to help out but would eventually be called out for backseat moderation leading to more moderation questions ultimately bringing out the down fall of the ABL. A light-heated place turned into a dark, miserable room of constant bickering.
This thread is more of peanut gallery with some mod stalking.

The ABL has a mod note now?! Things have changed around here...
Couldn't agree more:

Reason: There is no way you could have come to that conclusion had you actually read the article.

This China topic really delivers, I should start stalking general forums a bit more.

Yeah, I had never seen this guy until last week when he wrote a nice comment no one of my blogs. This is a bit of a ridiculous post though.

"I am dAPhREAk. And I see a whole army of my countrymen, here in defiance of moderation tyranny! You have come to argue and bitch as free men. And free man you are! What will you do without freedom to bitch and whine? Will you fight?"
"Two thousand against ten?" - MountainDewJunkie shouted. "No! We will run - and live on with passive aggressive attacks on mods in various forums!"
"Yes!" dAPhREAk shouted back. "Fight and you may get banned. Run and you will live to flame at least awhile. And getting banned in your basement many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that for one chance, just one chance, to come back here as young men and tell our enemies that they may ban our asses but they will never take our freedom to bitch and moan and antagonize them in the ABL!"
