Yeah, there are actually quite a few instances where people post something completely acceptable, but feel some strange urge to preface it with "I KNOW I'LL GET BANNED FOR THIS" in which case they get banned.

Megalisk has a long history.
BTW, did he ever get his report button? LOL. Be ironic to get it and then immediate get banned for 3 months.

I've always had this dumb question but how do you see a poster's warnings and bans?
|
You can't unless you have mod/admin privileges. We've just seen him get banned.. a lot.
For posterity here is the post that got him 90 days away + Show Spoiler +On July 10 2011 16:42 Megaliskuu wrote:DAT SOYEON IN TODAYS PERF Jgksljfglkjsdafksdkf Lots of good perfs on inki.

Poor Megaliskuu.

This is my 3rd time saying this in the thread now; Megaliskuu y u no learn from bans?

My my, why are people hating on Gretorp and InControl so much? I personally enjoyed Gretorp and Incontrol's casting very much. If any of these banned people can cast better then these two, then I'll eat my own foot.
|
It's because people need someone to hate when an event is below their impossibly high standards. The obvious targets are the people that the viewer sees most during the event.

Because they are not Tastosis, and everyone who is not Tastosis gets Flakked down by the vocal minority.

Indeed. I don't consider Gretorp or InControl top notch casters but the flaming some people do >.>
I guess if you're just watching for the commentary you'd be more ... enthused.. about it but I'm usually watching the minimap et al; I don't need them to commentate it's just a bonus.
Idk, Probably just people want to post like it's the rest of the internet and not TL.
Edit: Oh yeah, and the shitstorm from the fake reddit warp prism shit finally claims a temp ban.
pbjsandwich was just temp banned for 2 days by Empyrean.
That account was created on 2010-08-12 02:14:20 and had 150 posts.
Reason: No need to be rude when disagreeing with others. "go fuck yourself" is never appropriate.
I'm mildly surprised only one ban resulted from the whole ordeal.

Because people like to bitch and moan? TL should really be above this kind of behavior. It really destroys the discussion which could be directed towards more constructive angles. It's like we're bringing out the inner Korean netizens inside all of us or something like that. And everyone has to voice their own opinion that's the same as 200 other opinions. The brouhaha about Lindsey Sporr is just annoying. So much overkill.

Wow that was quite racist. When complaining about moaning it's prob best not to use racist metaphors. Unless there's some non-racist connotation there but I'm not seeing it.

What TL should be and is will never ever be the same thing. Unless you say it's excellent. That and possibly awesome are the only exceptions.
I see how referring to Korean netizens can be construed as racist but the addition of netizen makes it not about a race but a subgroup of a nationality- not asians or even Koreans in general. But it is stereotyping an entire demographic to make a point about brouhaha doesn't convey you're point very well.

I thought that I would like to make my last post for a while in this thread, which has been my favorite for a long time
Would EvilTeletubby please ban me for a year and a Half? And if you are wondering why, you can check out my last blog that i made  http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?topic_id=242181
Loved all you guys, and have fun checking out all of the bans without me! Edit: It is a year and a half ban and not 2 years becuase i want to play it safe and make sure i can get on TL the second i get home!

Oh, nice. I remember one time I was trying to see if a mod has managed to take up an entire page in the ABL by himself. It always seemed like another mod would always have a combo breaker somewhere. =/
edit: Oh, crap. There was a combo breaker there. =(

I don't consider people's most people's qualms with NASL to be unreasonable, but InControl and Gretorp are pretty much the last thing NASL needs to worry about. They did a fine and dandy job.

No seriously gl hf in Japan I'll miss you around here. Thanks a bunch man. you are one of the people that i will remember when i come back for sure! I leave tomorrow night, and go in to the MTC on Wednesday morning, but I am getting ready and packing all today. EDIT: Just remember that at this time, I had more posts than you

Take care Max, I expect a longer blog after a year :3
|
Strangely enough in a live report thread last weekend I thought I was going to surpass you pretty soon. That's why this is so devastating. I will never win now.
Just kidding. While I don't agree with the message, I am proud of the humanitarian deeds. I wish we all were a bit more like you in our own way.

@MaxField: Live long and prosper!
