A reminder to the forum...

eaeolian · 12-09-2011, 10:27 AM

...two long-time members with huge postcounts got permabanned this week for thinking it was OK to ignore - or provoke - the moderators. To put it simply, we don't have time for this crap, and we expect the long-timers to behave better, not worse, than the n00bs.

Xaios · 12-09-2011, 12:59 PM

I know Adam of Angels is one, which was the other one?

Pooluke41 · 12-09-2011, 01:14 PM

Daemon Barbeque?

But that was last week..

thedarkoceans · 12-09-2011, 01:31 PM

pretty mad,i didnt knew them but they are some pretty huge users.what have they done?

eaeolian · 12-09-2011, 01:32 PM

Actually, Stealth just got two years off, but it's basically the same thing.

thedarkoceans · 12-09-2011, 01:41 PM

yeah,Randy told me of this

Oh c'mon now, we all know that Stealth getting banned is because he's the resident chew toy.

You guys DO two year bans? Damn.

The Reverend · 12-09-2011, 04:29 PM

The only thing I'm worried about is whether or not mods read what I write when I report spam.

Also, it sounds like it'd be a no-brainer, but is there a way to appeal being permabanned? I wouldn't figure that there is, but I had to ask.

I'm fairly convinced they actually take reports quite seriously. I've reported a few things in my time, and it never takes long before the perpetrator shows up in the Public Ban List for exactly what I reported, at least if it's a banable offense. I think they do quite a bang-up job with it.

So yeah, kudos.

the angsty tween on the emo/screamo thread is gone for a while too, thank god. Hes probably shopping at hot topic and or rereading some twilight.

I kid I kid. The mods did well

We read it, and I'd be lying if I said that the tone and language used in the report didn't effect how, and how fast, I go about the issue. I am human.

If by appeal you mean sending a calm, well worded e-mail to one of the Mods to plead your case in a sane matter, then yes. Hounding us on Facebook, other forums, and making duplicate/troll accounts on the other hand are not too appreciated, especially when they're yelling (all capz) obscenities and insults in l337 speak.

For the record, there are rare cases of a permaban being lifted.....unfortunately it's really yet to work out too well, at least in the case of the user being banned for outright dickishness/trolling. A few users who have created duplicated accounts in an attempt to change usernames and were banned have been allowed back, but they were users in good standing who didn't really mean any harm.

Thanks for the info.

I'm not planning on getting myself permabanned, but it's nice to know that in the event I did, there's a chance, however slim, of being able to join the community again.

As for the recent permas, honestly the guys that have gotten perma'd have also been doing the same stuff over and over and over and we finally got sick of dealing with it. If you're on your third+ ban then yeah, odds are the next one is going to be permanent

It appears that there's been a tear in the space-time continuum.

The mods run a tight ship around here. I for one welcome the strict hand wielding the ban-hammer of justice as it makes the 777 forum an oasis in the vast desert of the inter-webz; this forum is more free of ignorance, racism, belligerence and all that other annoying shit internet trolls do to get their jollies on because of the lack of leniency exhibited by our mods.
