Anyway I think that KBB should rethink his approach if he wants people to behave, because at this moment, it is actually a pleasant experience to get banned by him
Pretty sure there are longer ban reasons floating around in the distant past, if that makes you feel any better or worse.

There is, composed of thousands of swears and insults. I vaguely remember intrigue being the victim (lol) or something. Can be very wrong on this though.

I remember another ABL regular who was like this...can't put my finger on the name though.

Praetorial?
yeah that dude, cult of bans guy.
Philoctetes was just temp banned for 1 week by KadaverBB.
That account was created on 2017-03-12 08:04:12 and had 12 posts.
Reason: Please ignore the warning you got about this post and take a ban instead. Your posting is terrible and you've been here for like a week
thanks KBB, I did a double take on the warning, way too light for the stupidity of the second half of his post.

People usually use the writing style of staffs and veterans as social cues to the limits of posting, but unfortunately as they are specifically given exemptions and leeway, which deviates from the official line of treating veterans equally to all posters, this just leads to warnings and bans which are just unfair in context when they are replying to those same staff and veterans.

I chose pillock because it was extremely British. Nothing more to it really.

It's kind of like how you can call a good friend fat or dumb but you can't do it to a random guy on the street.

I'd read your posts more if you promised that each will contain a new British insult. I love those.
I should watch some vintage Only Fools and Horses. Would be a good source. Plonker, wally, sod, twonk, git, dipstick, berk, wazzock, muppet, twit, nitwit, nonce, divvy etc.

which deviates from the official line of treating veterans equally to all posters
This statement is contrary to the Ten Commandments of TL.
if the mods like your dickishness (e.g., baller), then you can get away with more than if they don't (literally anyone who ever posts in a political thread)
