Banned Topic

[Darkmoon]

He broke several rules...ignoring a mod's instructions, insulting people - but they've only come close enough together in the last few weeks for him to wrack up issues fast enough to earn a ban. Hence why in the future certain long time problem causers are going to get infractions that take anywhere between six months and never to vanish. So we don't have a repeat of the long term issues MissV was able to cause thanks to getting around our system.

I thought MissV was a pretty cool guy(?). I guess I just don't read enough posts around here to really know what goes on. I really had no problem with him, so I can't really decipher any reasons for him getting banned. Though like I said, I just probably haven't been keeping up to date.

What needs deciphering? There's a monstrously big post on the last page haha

Hay Guise!

Can you please stop banning me for no reason? It's getting rather annoying.

K thanks.

K thanks.

Congratulations, you are qualified for an all-expenses paid permanent vacation away from THIA. Bon voyage.

Who is it?

[Alexia_Ashford]

No idea, but after the topics and posts he made (most of which I've deleted), it's obvious it's one of "those", such as a topic called "Fuck You". So he's been re-banned, whoever it is.

[Darkmoon]

Given the address his IP is coming from I'd guess it was He Who Cannot Be Named...literally, because the censor thing pops up. It's a UK address so that rules out most of the usual suspects right off.

[Alexia_Ashford]

Cleggy7 is from the UK, so is "he who shall not be named". Most troll accounts on here have apparently been from the former, so the usual suspects are mainly from the UK.

[Stu]

Don't worry THIA, you can thank this great nation of mine some other time!

[Alexia_Ashford]

He has the same IP as "StrawberrySwing", someone who was here before and banned by Carn. Anyone know who that was?

[Darkmoon]

...anybody care? I don't. Like all people with skin, trolls all look the same to me. Now, taste...you can tell the troll apart by taste by just how strong the flavour of shame is.

DM, you should write a book. Seriously, literally every post you make is so well written and creative...I've never heard so many brutal, hilarious-yet intelligent ways of dealing with trolls/moderating in general. I'm not sure what the book would be about, but I know you write fiction from time to time. Anywho, until Al Gore decides to destroy what he created (sarcasm), the internet will always unleash wave after wave of trolls, which be trollin.

I know the IP solution cleared many a troll from these waters, but as you can see just recently, even those who slip through the cracks are almost instantly banned. I never had much of a problem with Miss V, but just like Member of stars, the back and forth conflicts wouldn't stop. I know most of us share a deep passion for the game and it's characters in general, but what's the point in arguing until you're unable to discuss, period?

Wow...

Come to think of it, you're right.

[Darkmoon]

I am writing a book. Two in fact. And because shameless self promotion gets me everywhere, here's the link to the zombie story I'm writing, or at least it's prologue and first chapter. http://www.the-horror.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2338

[Corrin]

Looks like I'm not banned? Sorry for shitting up the forums, guys. I won't do it again.

[nemesiswontdie]

I just noticed RagevsFans was banned. What he do?

[Stu]

Congratulations?

[Vector]

Why'd he get banned? I don't feel like rummaging through topics to find the answer.

[Carnivol]

RagevsFans is banned till the end of the year for pretty much hardly having any posts of any meaningful nature other than "hatin'" (to the point where it's borderline trolling).
(Seriously, just go through his relatively short post history for samples.)
