Bansheebot banned?? - and weirdos talking about the Moon

Re: Bansheebot banned??

Go home sb your drunk.

Bansheebot has always been stand up in my eyes.

 

Re: Bansheebot banned??

Damn this sucks, I guess I will be seeing banshee on Instagram still
One more nail in the coffin for this board.

 

Re: Bansheebot banned??

It actually appears that he was never banned..? coulda swore he was.. Maybe he just doesnt post anymore because everytime he did, people would start up with him again. I mostly try to stay out of shit like that here and have nothing to say about the guy.

but you can view his posts and be your own judge of character if you like..

Re: Bansheebot banned??

You can't kill me that easily.

What happened is disappointing on so many levels but I'm happy to have my account back thanks to the work of James. It's sometimes interesting to see what happens when you mix power with a knee-jerk reaction.

Thanks to everyone for the kind words.

 

Re: Bansheebot banned??

Yes!! soo glad man! hope all your posts are back too..?

 

Re: Bansheebot banned??

Thanks, me too. Unfortunately not -- James will be working on that. He's the man.

 

Re: Bansheebot banned??

All right! I know I'm new here and all. But, man, phew. That was a close call. Seems all is well in the SB kingdom now!

 

Re: Bansheebot banned??

seriously that blows.. james help us out!!

that sucks that you have to redo your wants too, there's no way to just restore everything for you?

 

Re: Bansheebot banned??

What the shit?

I was literally just now sitting down for lunch and reading a horror mini-book I snagged here that I think Chad had a hand in writing.

Regardless of a suspension or ban or whatever why would someone erase years of posts? If they were acceptable at the time why would that change now all of a sudden? One of the only frustrating parts of this place is when I am looking through neat old threads and come across page after page after page of broken images/links. I get why that happens but doing it to someone on purpose seems like it would just hurt the entire board.

 

Re: Bansheebot banned??

I'm glad the kingdom has been restored.

I totally lost my temper. But that can be easy to do when some people act like total dickheads for no reason at all.

I might sell junk from time to time but somebody bought it or traded it away from me.

I've also never ripped anybody off or gouged anyone on this board.

I hope all of you can say the same.

 

Re: Bansheebot banned??

Well if it's any consolation...we do have his insightful commentary from 2009 about the GENERAL KYOUFU toy.

 

Re: Bansheebot banned??

The major lesson here is that we need new mods. Mods that actively moderate instead of only having their name symbolically in yellow. James is doing a great job. We need a few more like him. Andy? Steve? Bill?

 

Re: Bansheebot banned??

No, the major lesson here is that if people would be less dickheads and act like adults things would never get out of hand.

Obviously, you still don't get that.

 

Re: Bansheebot banned??

You banned someone for questioning your status as a mod when you seemingly aided in the post of a trade flipper instead of enforcing a rule on him. Unless there's something in PM's we haven't seen, I wouldn't classify anything Bansheebot said as "dickhead."

 

Re: Bansheebot banned??

Nothing to do with Bansheebotgate, but you are posting on a forum who throw money at plastic dolls like it will get 'em laid!

Dickheads are a given!

 

Re: Bansheebot banned??

^^^

This is the first I've read of all this story, had no idea. Banshee a Dickhead? Just my two cents but if Jason was banned I for one would've considered it unacceptable (and tough to believe): not that I know Jason personally but he's been among a handful of board members that have been kind to me and helpful across these last few years.

 

Re: Bansheebot banned??

I had a post typed up with a little timeline of events but I don't feel it's right to post publicly. PM me if you want to know what happened... Funny screenshot omake included free of charge.

I hope everyone has an awesome Sunday.

 

Re: Bansheebot banned??

Jason should be the new replacement mod

 

Re: Bansheebot banned??

My whole point is that people on this board should be just a bit nicer.

I already stated my mind in a post above.

Bansheebot, if you would like to continue, we can.

 

Re: Bansheebot banned??

Nope, I'm good. I hope whatever your issues are, including anger, get straightened out.

 

Re: Bansheebot banned??

Here is a post I made in March of this year - viewtopic.php?f=5&t=47764

Toothaction - No, we shouldn't give shit to bullies, homophobes and flippers. We should ban them.

Scary Andy - No, dickheads should not be a given.


For the record, I certainly wasn't aiding the flipper in question that set this whole confrontation off in the first place.

Maybe, I should be more of a dickhead. But I really don't want to do that...


I do think more stringent rules are in order. Rules that are clearly laid out and acted upon when a violation occurs so there is so speculation of what caused the resulting action.

Everybody makes a mistake once in a while. But, after two or three times, there is an obvious problem.

 

Re: Bansheebot banned??

Some folks may remember this quote from a response thread to S&S88

Spoiler

(Heil Hitler? yup, he was all about the Nazi SS and 88ing, apparently.)

and Bansheebot (plus myself and others) having words with Scumbags. S&S got pretty scummy and Chad nuked the thread.


Chad, why is that your go-to reaction when you moderate? Twice in a year seems pretty frequent.

Oh and yes, everyone in this place could use a little more civility, but what are people really afraid of when we aren't? Is Obama going to bust in and shut the place down?

 

Re: Bansheebot banned??

Fine, I surrender.
