Disagree Oddboy, take away the picture and would the play on words still work? No, so it is the picture that you are ultimately laughing at.

Oddboy

Well it depends on your sense of humour... personally I think what I said above is true, but then I like crap pun jokes so maybe that's just little ol' me being me.

Hey don't get me wrong Oddboy, I wasn't judging you or anyone else, I wasn't even going to go into an arguement over what is or isn't funny. Comedy is purely subjective to the individual and not everyone shares the same sense of humour. I was just wanting to stir up a debate over what is and isn't deemed as an acceptable post on the site. Heck! I just want Scojo back and was trying to use this thread as an excuse to crowbar my opinion on the board. C'mon let him back, I'll even act as his parole officer and monitor his behaviour. Things have been pretty dull since he left.

Oddboy

Yeah why not?
He's easily killfilable/ignorable when he's at his most excessive.

Art

Oh please no. I was quite liking being able to use the messageboard and chatroom.

The Amstor Computer

Exactly, Art. It's easy to ignore his threads about his scripts/whatever John Wagner's done wrong this week/how we don't understand his genius, but he posted on every damn thread. It gets to the point where, if you don't want to listen to him, you have to leave, because his nonsense is *everywhere*

Fuck that.

stodge

IMHO the board is a much nicer place without him.  i got very sick of reading his rants and being pestered by him in general.  i know i can killfile him but quite frankly why should i have to?  his behaviour was consistently annoying and abusive so he got banned end of story.....

Gamespot just for voicing my opinions on  old threads. I got a warning and suspension, applogised in a polite, reasonable manner but they banned me permanently just for having a 'disruptive account. I could understand if I'd be posting threats of violence, was being constantly verbally and racially abusive, sticking porn up, threatening to upload a virus or making bomb threats. If they didn't want anybody responding to the old threads they should have locked the them!!! :-X :-X :-X

JOE SOAP

so you like posting on 8 year old threads huh?, that'll get you banned, it's as bad as posting porn.

HOO-HAA

Wow, this is an old thread...

Interestingly enough, I find that Amercian forums are a little more sensitive when it comes to religion/ politics. Patriotism is a HUGE thing in the US and a snarky comment about their god, president or Army can cause considerable upset.

I've learned a lot from this cartoon:




Professor Bear

My brother got banned from a certain high-profile videogaming website on three occasions.  Once for accusing the site of doctoring comparison footage between Xbox 360 and PS3 games (which was proven shortly afterwards by other visitors to the site with technical experience, prompting the site to delete the video and deny the incident had occurred despite the original comments still being visible), another time for accusing the site of pro-American bias in its coverage (which is a bit like calling water wet given it's an English language website whose main contributors are based in the West), and lastly (by which I mean he gave up on the site entirely afterwards) he was banned for posting the content of private PMs on a thread - the fact that the PMs were a series of thousand-words-plus essays from the same user quoting several hundred posts across several years to back up his rambling, threatening accusations of gayness fell on deaf ears.  It was the guy who posted the PMs who made the complaint, too - and still frequents the site.

We should all be thankful that this particular forum is what it is.

I still do this now but its not a waste of time because the subject matter is very important plus the website and comments get very high viewing figures which are much higher than mainstream media.

If it was trivia like arguing about Transformers and that type of thing i wouldnt be that proud of myself at all.

As for being banned i was temporarily banned from this forum plus previous to that i had one warning from Wake about my conduct.

Other than that i havent been banned from any other forum.
