Now get the fuck out before I ban you just because I feel like it.

He is one of the best shmup enthusiasts we have on this forum, and his posts are always insightful.

He disagrees with one of the mods and that somehow breaks new ground and causes him to be banned? Bullshit. You have people making threads calling mods "retarded" and they are still active. You have people making 20 threads a day about BK sandwiches and they are still active. But God forbid we talk about PHOENIXING A CPS2 BOARD.

Do we need to walk on eggshells around moody mods?

I'm curious as well, it seemed to be over nothing at all :conf:

BRING BACK CALI, BRING BACK CALI!

Wow...never saw that one coming.

Battlesmurf · Mar 26, 2008

seriously. Unless there's something behind the scenes that I missed (which I strongly doubt)- I think we're gonna need some sort of an explanation. Cal is a great guy- and it goes without saying that unless it was some kind of bad joke- he didn't deserve a ban.

hahahaaaa

Damn, I had no idea califoreigner was banned. I can't say that I fully agree with what he said about Phoenixed boards, but he's always been a good member. It seemed like a harmless opinion, and we all have them. Bio's always been a great guy as well, so it's a bit of a shock to me if he's responsible.

Hope the ban's lifted soon, because it doesn't really seem justified.

I agree, BMU has always been fair. I don't understand what happened here. A personal opinion about CPS2 collecting that differs from the opinion of a moderator doesn't mean that member deserves to be banned IMO.

themisterfalcon · Mar 26, 2008

What the fuck Biomotor?

You're going to ban a perfectly good member because he has an opinion that differs from yours?

Why don't you use your mod powers for something a little more productive, like cleaning this site of fucking retards and jackals.

themisterfalcon · Mar 26, 2008

This is such total horse shit.

I am going to keep bumping this thread until we get an answer for this completely irrational behavior.

A) It's a joke

B) Something bigger happened we are unaware of

I hope this turns out to be option: C) A mod makes an ironic comment by temporarily banning a non-offending member to persuade the community to ban people in the future for... irrational behavior.

I know Casey very well, nothing bigger happened.

A. Not funny.

B. Doubt it. Cali is a stand up guy and I talk to him outside of here everyday.

C. Fear tactics maybe? There's your joke, the administration on this forum.

I'm a pretty nice guy and seldom say shit to people on this forum but this really crosses the fucking line. I look forward to an explanation.

I was hoping someone would have something to say by now...

In my perfect world of option C, the temporarily banned member would have been in cahoots with the mod and green lighted the plan from the get-go.

RAINBOW PONY · Mar 26, 2008

bio banned me once back in the day because i told him to go shovel his driveway and STFU.

same old, same old, by the looks of it.

dude should not be a mod.

i'd rather have qube over him.

Battlesmurf · Mar 26, 2008

seconded. Is Casey unbanned yet?

DZ · Mar 26, 2008

So...lemme get this straight..

Cali gets banned for one post and SF4L, a guy with ties to a know scammer, runs free for a week?? Guess cause he didn't make a comment about cps2 boards he wasn't a concern huh?

BULLSHIT! :very_ang:

Oh, nice fucking reasoning on this ban. What a bunch of shit.

Way to go BMU. Keep up the good fucking admin work.

I always wondered what people saw when I banned them.

I'd write some really nasty and creative shit, and I always figured it was just me and Bobak reading them. Like a little competition to see if we could make the other mod laugh. This revelation is saddening.

Or hilarious in hindsight?

Sounds like it's worth of a coffeetable or crapper book. Do you have these archived in some way?

Dr Shroom · Mar 27, 2008

Hmm, a mod who abuses his power, this feels very familiar to me.

Seriously BMU, wtf? Thats more wasabi-style if you ask me.
