My friend Goldenbear got a timeout for saying e-bay only not in that fashion last night, and has not been able to come back yet. So how much longer for him?
And he was wondering when this rule was put into place? I've seen threads where twenty people say it with no harm. I also don't understand why it's banned??
And what's the difference between saying e-bay, egay, etc., than without the extra stuff?
He was not banned for using the word, he was banned for deliberately defeating the language filter. This is not a new policy. He knew full well what would happen.
