The VGBA Ban Registry

Those threads weren't news though, they were incoherent and really couldn't be understood as a post, much less a thread.

Isn't that your job to explain to him for a lenient mistake rather than a straight ban?

I explained to him through PM why his thread was deleted after he asked, and he responded with "There will be a lot of threads". It was his intention to post several spam threads in the Game Discussion sub-forum, and it was quite clear when they were posted a minute or so apart and contained those incoherent threads. He will return in 3 days.

What if I wanted to know what Top 7 game characters would be in the Olympics? Where else would someone post it?

The point is, it is a GAME DISCUSSION in the GAME DISCUSSION THREAD. There are no rules as to what you want to talk about, as long as it's gaming.

What I'm saying is, if the threads made sense then it would have been fine. But they didn't, at all.

Yes they did, I would have been intrigued. Being a moderator, you have to stretch out to all of the community, not just single members. I know I'm not the only one that would have liked those threads.

Please explain to me how those threads made any sense at all.

When I read them they made perfect sense, Sounds like you were just looking for a chance to abuse that power you have. Banning him was not necessary members found the threads entertaining as they were about gaming.

This.

How? I'm sorry but if I 'abused my powers' I would have banned everyone that disagreed with the decision instead of letting them voice their opinions.

That depends on how you define what makes sense to you. Looking at the threads you quoted, each had the potential for interesting discussion. I probably would have contributed to the first, describing why I find the gaming industry so appealing. I might not have shown any interest in the other two, but it's not as if I should decide what other members post as long as it pertains to the "Gaming Discussion" moniker.

Deiviuxs may have been harboring resentment over The World of Gaming being closed, but it's not as if the threads he posted didn't have some potential. The format he used in posting them is identical to those within the World of Gaming.

[GrahamZ]

What do you mean how? Read for yourself. He has been here just the same amount of time as us, he has been nothing more than a great artist and contributor to the site. A few 'spamming' posts and you ban him. I guess loyalty and commitment means nothing.

Alright then, I'll reopen the threads and give Deiviuxs his 3 days to cool down.

I find treating everyone equally on this site very important, regardless of how long a user has been here or what they contribute.

That's why you deleted threads that we enjoyed?

Again this shit? Holy fuck "abusing power" or "being on a high horse" has nothing to do with anything, nor is it true. Is there a way you can bring up your views without acting like a child? Seriously guys think about what you say.



"ELITIST PEOPLE DESERVE BETTER" is what that sounds like.

Ass kissing overload.

There is a difference in treating someone equally and banning someone for a minuscule problem. Makes me wonder if you have a problem with him.

If you are going to reopen the threads (the reason he was banned) then you should unban Deiviuxs. Can't do one and not the other.

The last time I checked, deleting threads has nothing to do with elitism.


@Grahamz, it's similar to when Stevencho gave Necromancer a ban to cool down a few weeks ago.

You're not helping whatever argument you're trying to make, here. UF isn't a person I'd expect to suck up to a mod.

[GrahamZ]

This is getting abit out of hand the point was that the threads were not worthy of getting deleted, we have solved it.

[RAiDeN-209]

This isn't very fair for SP. He's the mod. It's his job to ban people when they break the rules. "There will be a lot of threads" is clearing showing that it was Deiviuxs' intention to spam in protest to his thread being deleted. I would have done exactly as SP did. Besides, most of your arguments are based on opinions (whether or not Deiviuxs was intending to spam, or if he deserved a warning, etc.).

It's only a 3-day ban, it's not like Deiviuxs can't handle it. If anything, this is probably a good thing for him. I'd probably want to take a 3-day break if I were in Deiviuxs' position.

My mistake, I didn't read all of your post, I'm sorry.

So, is this all over now?
