Wait... what?!!?!?!
WingsOfLead was just banned by pangshai.
That account was created on 2012-03-08 20:32:02 and had 2 posts.
Reason: Previously banned user.
WingsOfLead was just banned by GMarshal.
That account was created on 2012-03-08 20:32:02 and had 2 posts.
Reason: Goodbye!
What's going on here? I'm guessing 3 options:
a) pangshai and GM both banned him at the same time
b) pangshai banned him, he recreated an account and GM banned him. But if this is correct, how come the 2 names are identical?
c) pangshai banned him. Then GM banned a different account that had the same name/same # of posts?

The answer has to do with the way new banlings make bans, it's basically just a technical glitch.

At least be internally consistent in your annoying blogs. He made a blog about beating Vegeta in a tennis ball catching and cake eating contest :s Sadly his most recent blogs are annoying attention whore posts where apparently he can't even get his facts straight. I do wonder what caused Empyrean to actually go back and figure this out though.
lol
amazing find...and amazing ban reason

Still too soon, I suppose. ((I thought it was hilarious, but I respect that you shouldn't say things like that. I don't think Jews even get offended by them, in the same way that I don't get offended by cancer jokes. I think maybe Germans might take offense to that joke, though, because they've had to deal with that stigma for quite some time now. Jokes like that are just pretty bad taste, regardless.))

Wow. That's pretty bad, even for WBG in-game. I went looking to try to find the offending post, was it from a different game than the one cited in the ban reason? Or did I just overlook it?
In any case, it seems like a totally reasonable ban. I know the Mafia threads have a tradition of being a bit more insulated from general TL moderation, but that was pretty excessive.

Reason: Given your history, which is beyond lengthy, and your posting, which continues to be terrible, this time it's permanent. Please go away.
Woah.

i edited in a protest in my post that got warned once, it wasn't a big deal so i didn't bother a mod about it but it felt better that way the other warnings I've had have all been pretty justified i guess.

There really are some gems in the automated ban list.
Every single day I stop by the automated ban list and get great joy from it. Closed Threads is pretty amuzing too. It's worth stopping by just to cheer you up on a rainy day
Edit:
The Circle of [TL]Life:
One day another TL.net user will see me in the automated ban list, he will look at this post and experience the same joy I did back then...
