That account was created on 2013-02-04 22:12:15 and had 749 posts.
Reason: Previously banned user. Zero improvement over prior account. Jeez. Also the guy with the name I can't pronounce above Hitch got banned also, anyone find the post he got banned for (for both of them I mean)?

Plexa who was his original account? (Wojciech's)
Never considered the option that someone so dumb would be a PBU allowed back...

farvacola was just temp banned for 90 days by Nyovne.
That account was created on 2011-01-23 05:46:54 and had 5722 posts.
Reason: Seriously, what the hell is wrong with you?
obsessive compulsive typo-quip disorder, it's pretty widespread on tl (congenital -> congenial). why did it merit a ban?

90 days is amazingly long for a good poster like farv. Kinda tempted to dispute it on his behalf.
|
Good poster? ...
Although 90 days does seem a bit harsh for that post alone.

I don't usually see anything much wrong with his posts? Maybe I'm looking in the wrong places
|
Yeah, but there's also a lot of pretentious pseudo-intellectualism in that he purposefully complicates what he's saying sometimes just to make himself appear smarter.
Personally I don't support any of that. He's not a shit poster by any means, but still let's not feed his massive ego any more.

You're right, he does do that a lot. It doesn't bother me particularly though.

a 90 day ban for a harmless joke seems a little harsh.

He's unbanned. No worries, just a slight misunderstanding

Not really... I'm sorry you feel that way but I'm not a hypocrite and your "no u" post doesn't change that. :/

Nyovne not distinguishing between facetiousness and seriousness? Wouldn't be the first time... ^^

Not much to explain. Nyovne misunderstood the post and went ahead and banned farvacola because he thought the post was terrible.
It wasn't though, so we unbanned him. All is well in the world again! hooray.

I assumed it was a joke, wasn't sure how you get from a 90 day to a 0 day based on it though.
Oh well, one of TL's charming mysteries.
|
my bet is that nyovne did not pick up on the meaning of his post (making a quip on the typo congenital -> congenial) and in the end what the fuck was wrong with farvacola was that he overestimated the moderators diligence. maybe some sort of spoilered explanation would have helped.
@mop you could have worded your post in simpler terms, yet you "purposefully complicated" what you said. i actually considered the option that you wrote that post the way you did as a joke pertaining to farvacolas magniloquence, and it would have been a clever joke. ;>

So all's right with the world now I like it.
|
Damn, almost had a small heart attack there. I really enjoy having farvacola around, but I know he occasionally walks the fine line between acceptable and unacceptable. I was just worried that he might have finally gone off on somebody in the general forums.
