I was just talking to elklander on GT chat, who was talking to stackny on AIM. Apparently stackny has been banned. To which I say, "Why, God, why?!"

Seriously, though. I'm really gonna miss that crazy little bugger. We had some good times. Now who am I supposed to carry on entire conversations between asterisks with?

*sigh*

Well, I was waiting for the appropriate time to post this pic, but now it looks like that day will never come. I was gonna wait until stackny said something really wild again (like that time he said Canada was useless, or that time he insisted all foreigners learn to speak English), and then post this:

*sniff*
Goodbye, my friend.

That was scary. I think I almost got banned too. :(

I was wondering where Stack had gone...

Oh well, looking on the bright side, we have a week's respite from heated political and religious debates! :rolleyes:

The GT rules exist for a reason.

When Mods post something it is a good idea to take notice and it is a really bad idea to try to argue with them.

He got a slapped wrist nothing more.

However people who are continually disruptive need not be surprised if they end up being banned.

It has happened many times before, and getting PMs from mods that have words like "official warning" in the title is a sure sign you are walking the line.

Just for elaboration, Simon doesn't mean that you can't debate with Mods when they post something like "Eric Clapton really isn't that good." What he means is when Mods post something like "we should all calm down here" or "this may be going too far" the intelligent response is not "you have no sense of humor" or "sod off" as the English say.

We are considering permanent banning several of you.

We are tired of having to watch certain people over and over again to make sure they don't cross the line.

Please make sure you stay well within the spirit of our forum rules.

When people are banned, are they banned from signing in or the site all-together. How does being banned work out for high bandwidth users...just curious.

No. I think the only prerequisite for banning yourself is mental retardation, and unfortunately, Pony doesn't have that.

I didn't know all these people had aim, but oh well... I talk to entirely too many people already. I'm going to go read the GT rules right, because I'm not even sure what they are. I'm sure its mostly common sense, and I just feel like apologizing if I have crossed the line ever. *cries* :o
