why?

why does everyone have funny DL names, by the way?

seems like every funny login name should be suspect to DL

I've oft considered making DLs and doing things that would obviously get me banned (ever seen 20 threads in the OT by one person?)

the mods must all be sleeping, these threads usually never make it past the first 5 minutes.

and I've never been banned, although I did ask for a GP about a year ago.

i was banned once because sarcasm doesn't travel well in text.

especially when you don't add a or a or what not.

some took my comments on arabs as racist, when i was actually using the post to make a point against some right-wing argument.

quote: Originally posted by Kramerman well, in short i got in a scuffle with che. i dont want to whine or criticize ming, so ill just say i called che a name and was banned. the craziest part tho was the correspondance that followed for the next couple days between me and ming. i was really upset at the time, not about being banned ( i coulda cared less about that, i needed a break from 'poly anyway) but over the circumstances. It was very, very frustrating, like the feeling when being falsely accused (but that wasnt the case, just similar feeling) Oh well, cares seem to fade with time...

because people then get into contests of who can be banned for what, people think (stupidly) that it will make them a celebrity, and upon their return they crow about all the trouble they made

That's why.

h tower, i actually took the contest to real life and tried to see how many times i could get kicked out of class in one semester. out of 39 classes, i got kicked out about half the time. the best part was i was having a contest with another guy which was great.

after that semester he dropped out of school and i met up with him cleaning my backyard lawn in the morning about a year later. good times.

it was so weird! i remember him calling out my name, and not remembering him at first and then going, "oh ****, whats up steve" i was in a robe too.

it was one of those "i gotta do something with my life" moments.

If I ask Ming to ban me... will he ban me? is that a good reason to ban someone?

(And no, this is all hypothetical.. in case ming is reading this)

I've been banned befor, but not here, It was over at Pbreview.com In the Off Topic forum, one night I got extremely bored, and declared my self a moderator and all the power that comes with it. I made a thread named "Poogas's rules" and claimed the Admin smells bad etc... at the time to deal with spam they put a 10 post limit on everyone so I declared the "brass Eagle" forum Off topic #2, and Comideered it for about 3 minutes befor one of the mods banned me. (If you don't know about Paintball Brass Eagle is a low grade entrance marker)

Since I was IP banned there wasn't much I could do about it, now and than when I'm at a friends House I go back there and create a "Revive Poogas" or "Unban The Poogas" thread, but to no avail.

I would give a link, but this is as far as I can go

http://pbreview.com/forums/

I get a "Sorry. The administrator has banned your IP address. To contact the administrator click here" message.


Anyone want to help unban me .... you know you want to

I think my IP address changes every so often with my cable ISP provider.

I should try getting back onto FFZ again. Anyone know the address to ffz?

I was banned once. My very first thread on Apolyton got spammed by the OT people, and me, being young and impressionable, joined in. I was out for a week and got a 100% pcr.

And then, for some strange reason, I was more irritated by the pcr than the banning. I would take the opposite view now. Wouldn't care at all if I were sent back to settler. But it's been almost two years, I've changed.
