Seriously, Mod's should use this whenever they ban someone. So when they ban someone, they should give them this as a gesture of good "Mod" behaviour.

http://www.loki7.com/banned404.htmlAs cool as that thing is, I don't think the staff are ever going to be cool enough to use it, or Chris' smilie. Heck, we're lucky if we get a witty comment nowadays.

That's because banning is not meant to be a humourous thing :p

So do we get an example of these "stupid things" to which you are refering to?

Bert, I think you of all people should be keeping out of this.

There was no one banned who didn't deserve to be banned.

That's a cute smilie, Chris. I might use it sometime. :)

There was no one banned who didn't deserve to be banned.I can think of at least three people who are banned but do not deserve to be, but nothing will change if I drag them back up again, so I choose not to name them. :fpdirt:

I can counter with three who should be banned but aren't.

I thought it was a little unfair when Triple T was banned. I just didnt see the point of it.

Yamaneko
07-24-2005, 09:36 PM
Maybe because he was a previously banned member?

escobert

Really? huh missed that one

He learned his lesson. Its just a videogame forum.

Yamaneko

So what you're saying is that anyone who was banned before, but has "learned his or her lesson" should be able to come back?

Destai

Oh my, he did something wrong two years ago when he was a lot more immature (which was a dubious banning in the first place, in my opinion) and hasn't put a foot wrong since and was becoming a valued and popular member of the community, and even had the decency to admit to the fact that he had been previously banned. Let's ban him!

Yamaneko

But that involves allowing banned members to register again and show that they've changed or whatever. And if we allow exceptions for one person, then we should allow it for everyone.

The same logic can be applied to why it is so important for a person to need to come back. It shouldn't be a big deal either way, so, since the forums have run pretty smoothly under the current system, that is the way it is going to be. People who break the rules will get banned, and everyone gets on with their lives, or e-lives if you'd rather.

I just dont think you should have bothered to ban his triple T account in the first place. Video game forum after all.

If theyre not breaking any rules of course.

Sounds like that's exactly what you're suggesting, Destai. Allowing him to stay on would be the same as allowing banned members to reregister.

His second account shouldnt have been banned because it was unnnecessary. Especially if he admitted to spamming and breaking the rules.

I dont need to rules the decide wether thats fair or unfair. Ive got common sense. But I understand why you'd be expected to uphold the rules. Just didnt see it as necessary under the circumstances.

Leeza
07-24-2005, 09:55 PM
It was necessary because a banned member is a banned member regardless of what name he decides to use. If he was allowed to stay, every other banned member would want to have the same privilege.

It makes me sad how nearly every topic in feedback ends up being about who should and should not be banned, and whether or not the rules are justified, yadda yadda.
:fpguilt: Saaaaad Panda.

If he was allowed to stay, every other banned member would want to have the same privilege.He didnt deserve to be banned Leeza. He admitted to spamming ages ago and showed he had become just as good a member as me or you. Its unnecessary. I've seen things through your point of view. Give me a sign that you're returning the favour for him.

Leeza
07-24-2005, 09:58 PM
Makes me sad as well, Azar.

Give it up, Destai. You don't know what he did.

Destai

Its unfair. If you cant see anything besides what the rules say theres a problem with your system. Because the rules say so is a terrible excuse and it doesnt make it right.

Cz
07-24-2005, 10:01 PM
I like Triple T, and if I had it my way he wouldn't have been banned. The problem is, I don't have it my way and he's not coming back, no matter how much we argue. So could we please just drop the subject and use the feedback forum as it should be used, for rampant spamming and oldbie jokes?

Leeza
07-24-2005, 10:06 PM
I think you'll find as you go through life that rules are put into place because it has been proven that they are needed. Such is the case here.

I agree with you BM121, which is why this thread is now closed. We are not going to rehash the same story again any more today.
