We totally need a "NT just banned my friend" containment thread.

ytf can be pretty abrasive imo.

Also long term poster or not, people should read the damn stickies.

Can you name one other business that treats customers like this? I have no idea what percentage of posters buys books, but I would venture that among those posting since the 90s the number is real close to 100%.

NT! --- Move the unretarded (non-Google solvable) fix my avatar threads to BBV4L. Kipin lurks there and would probably do it if it is interesting.

it's always funny how mods who never had a problem with OOT bannings come out of the woodwork when their buddies are the ones breaking the rules.

well i think this one is awful

FYP

maybe if ryan/chuck hadn't fixed the unban notification problem there likely would have been more threads like this one and the NYplayer one before this

I have no problem with the relatively short ban, especially if he's been a tard in the past, but there's no reason the thread couldn't have been moved to BBV or Comp Tech Help or whatever.

If NT has warned him previously, I'm not sure what else there is to do but temp ban him.

Dids · #18 10-31-2007, 03:42 PM

My only point is that these are currently the rules. I think the discussion we should be (and kinda are) having is that if those rules are appropriate.

Obviously we have more than a few instances of long term posters not reading and running afould of NT's sticky. I think this has been talked to death to some extent and probably we should just get a red person to decide what's up.

this user has sent me a PM basically saying i have no right to ban him because he has been posting here for 12 years, being abusive, etc. i removed his custom title and request that he be exiled from OOT.

not that i want to voice my opinion on this or any other matter at the moment, but what was the final decision in the recent custom titles debate? is stripping custom titles not overturning another mod's actions? further, isn't punishing a user for sending YOU an abusive PM entirely out of line with respect to moderating situations which involve yourself?
