    Don't come crying to us just 'cause the staff here's a bit more lax.
    EoFF has some of the strictest rules and harshest moderators I've seen in a forum - and I've had my share of both. This has its advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that EoFF is a fairly safe place for children and adults alike.. the downside is that free speech is certainly not held in high regard, and one often has to think three or four times about what they're going to say, lest they be banned. I mean, I can't even say basic swear words here, everything has to be sterile and clean and nice... good for the kiddies, not so good for me.

    EDIT: I certainly hope I won't be banned for this criticsm...

    On FFOnline, you can say and say whatever you want - including insulting other members, which is something that's done regularly there. It's not a 'PG13-Happy-Kiddies-Parents-Will-Approve' sort of place. There are, however, things that will get you banned - like arguing with certain members (mostly the moderating team and their cronies), or inciting fights and flame wars, etc.

    It's still pretty hard to get banned there. I think even posting pornography doesn't earn you an instant ban... not to mention commenting on someone's font colour, or something.

    Any idea what you may have done? The fact it says 'none' only means they didn't bother writing anything, not that you didn't do anything. Maybe they just thought you're lame or something. They're not a very nice bunch.

    EDIT: Well, seems like you spammed and advertised. That's a bannable offence in most forums.

    The rightful owner of this Ciddie can kiss my arse! :P

    Nope. I've never been banned before, although, I have been close at some other place for imposing Grace Jones upon people.

    correction.

    Point = fun, satisfying. Stuff like that.
    If you go round in a bad mood over getting banned for stupid stuff and moaning ahout it in a thread on another forum then you aren't doing yourself any favours, or anyone else in particular.

    I haven't been banned from anywhere, yet. I generally just leave or stay away if things get tense or out of hand at other forums.

    We used to be <I>reeaaally</i> relaxed around here.

    It's funny... like watching the USA change based on who is voted into power.
