Here's to a warning free future!
*fingers crossed*

Kidding, kidding, kidding. 
Also, that giant FIRST warning message was amazing.

Do all the mods/staff have a clean history without ban and warnings? If they don't, what staff member has the filthiest mod notes?

I used to be a big time criminal. Called one guy retarded once, with bad grammar no less. Not an inch of my face is smiling when I think back. While banned I played the role of a snitch some, got some of my former colleagues put into disneyland. I can't lie, it felt good. I guess the ones in command saw some potential and handed me that hammer. It fit.

Reason: You make TL moderating hard. Usually i can scroll through a page and can catch the idiots with short posts....i actually have to read through yours to see that you are generally over aggressive and just want to argue instead of discuss things. Please calm down.
I advise some deep squats (none of that 90 degree BS), 45 mins of cardio, fap and a long hot shower. Wow, I'm impressed. Kennigit has this shit down to a science. It's like he's the aggression doctor prescribing treatment for being a dickwad on the Internet.

oh, me me! i got 1 warning once when i posted that a thread should be closed. it was shortly closed. ruined my streak! :[

I have two bans and I think a secret warning ):

Every time kennigit bans someone suggesting squats I can't help myself from laughing hahah <3

I'm planning on avoiding bans by - never posting in the SC2 strategy fourum (ban trap, that place)
- avoiding any religious/political discussion threads
- lurking in the mafia forum
It's worked well so far.

I think avoiding being banned can be easy. You just need what i call response inhibition, which in general means thinking one hundred and forty two thousand, eight hundred and fifty seven times before hitting the post button. When a post seems suspicious to me, i consult the commandments before posting, in which case, i am always intimidated by the very first. Then again, refraining from posting as much means a bit less contribution, since it elliminates risk and reward. But i am ok with it. I don't really want to get to the highest of the TL contribution ranks, unless i somehow become a profesional SCII player.

Why would you need to avoid bans? It's not like they're flying around looking to catch anything and anyone they can. Metaphorically speaking, you have to be a giant magnet walking around in a room full of iron banhammers in order to catch one.

Assuming the "this is their house" mentality works fine for dodging bans imo.

User was warned for this post
Kind of disappointed to only see a warning for this tbh, such a douche-y post. Plus it has an added "pls don't ban".
Further investigation also shows that like half his posts are about who idra and nada have presumably slept with :')

TL bot is down to 4 posts. Though, unless the pace increases suddenly, it looks like today is NOT the day of the rapture.

I got warned once for joking about protoss balance. Guess it really didn't come across that way. I was so upset to see the red. You have been warned. Post below my already joke post.

I got banned for +1ing a +1 post and banned for putting a trollface of Donald Trump in his thread.

michaelhasanalias was just banned by JWD.
That account was created on 2010-05-16 11:12:30 and had 952 posts.
Reason: By request.
Oh God, how do these always get me? I see it coming when I see someone martyr themselves, but it just gets a chuckle 100% of the time with the reasons given.
Stay hilarious, mods.

Yeah, I really love it when the reason is "By request" and searching shows that it was martyring. Somehow it's always identifiable which ones are the true "by request bans".
