Best ban ever. I almost reported that guy for posting the least funny picture possible but I didn't because I felt it would be stupid. Then 30 minutes later I see he gets banned. I don't really understand that ban, and I also don't understand why you're happy about it. It's the funny pics thread. It's filled to the brim with memes, troll faces etc., and noone seems to care. Then someone shows up with yet another halfway clever troll pic - and gets a ban? What's the reasoning behind that? I found the picture funny, I know I had a good laugh when encountering my very first youtube troll jpg/gif. well you get banned here for saying your opinion, so it doesnt surprise me, that a mod bans someone for not having the same humor as said mod. if i were mod, i would ban hot_bit for every "troll"interview he has ever done. So why exactly haven't you been banned for this post? Seems to be proving itself wrong. I tend to agree with the vast majority of bans, even, painfully, my own temp. (Although I would have decided to ban me for an entirely different subset of my posting than the mods did, the overall pattern they temped me for was hard to argue.) I also agree with almost every ban that I see on this site, but that one in the funny pictures thread does annoy me, I first thought it was because it was a video not a picture but when I read what he posted I looked back and realized it wasn't a video (I wasn't going to watch it) and that actually did make me laugh, I really think this is too close to the mod deciding what is or isn't funny because that certainly wasn't inappropriate. I think everyone pretty much agrees with the bans on this site. If not there would have been some kind of TeamLiquid revolution by now. The only people who disagree are probably the people getting banned and the people who like the trashy internet\meme humor. And I have never seen someone banned for their opinion on TL. There's a difference between a well articulated opinion and spurting out a shitty 1-liner. you never seen someone banned for their opinion? okay go to the BW-section and say something along the lines of "i would like it if player xyz changes to sc2". they get extremely emotional over there, because their game is dying probably lol.
Nice try. The mods do a good job of picking out the shitty posters who's intentions aren't discussion.

Can we make THIS thread not about feeding harhar? Stop assisting the trollage and making me think there was an interesting ban every time the topic is bumped :<

i found the ban bit weird since that exact same picture has been posted before and the poster never got banned

This usually occurs because one mod finds something objectionable that another mod find benign. We do our best to be identical in terms of banning, but differences still happen.
Mods sometimes discuss borderline bans in IRC and such.

lol! where am i trolling? it's not my intention to start a flamewar. the warning i recieved just now totally proves my point :D

The fact that you write "lol" at the beginning/end of your posts here prove that you are trolling.
And I am totally not going to follow Probes appeal.

This ban and the associated blog are well worth reading, if only for the rekrul moments ^_^

Whenever somebody complains on this thread about the moderation, it's usually somebody with a shitty posting history. I took a look at a sample of this guy's posting history and they're almost all terrible one-liners formatted in text speak.

okay lets analize this. first post was "well, done", second was "you, lol" and last was "lol, :D". so that makes only 50% of expression of happiness. if that is too much joy for you i suggest going back to the na/eu ladder.

My guess is because his reaction and anger is fair in my opinion.

I play on ICCup, that's why I am unfamiliar with happiness.

It wasn't fair. He offended Rekrul first (in this thread on page 3), so sending a racist PM isn't a fair reaction.
Edit: Kill me, I am wrong. Still, it was pretty racist.
