Hello nickel. How are you doing?

hey, you knew! wasn't sure, but then you always were a sharp cookie. 🙂

we had some crazy hatefests there, huh? i still think you'd like me irl. 😉

I am a lot closer to you now. I live in Manhattan. Care to get a drink sometime?
 
I've been banned once, and that was just recently here, apparently some of the mods have really really thin skin.
 
One time on one of my car forums for a parrot thread. I'm pretty mellow and find that following the rules works best in the long run.

/sheeple out.

I can only think of one vacation from here. I forget what for though.
Spamming.

😕

Really? I thought I said a naughty word. I wonder what I spammed.

Edit: Never mind, weird how fast the brain works. It was PM spam, and it was to a personal friend. I remember being very frustrated with that ban since it caused no harm and wasn't even a public offense. Oh well, tis only the internet.
 
1 temp. ban from AnandTech because of a buyer who went back on his word and made me look like I was lying.

0 bans elsewhere!

I believe I got a 4-day vacation (reduced from one month) a few years back for massive neffing/parodies. So did a few other people that night (that was the first of many for Dug, as I recall :laugh:[/i]).

I post pretty infrequently these days though.

I don't know what you are talking about.

*walks away whistling nonchalantly*
 
I was just banned from GLP for posing as one of thier retards and then calling the alter ego a "PACNfudge"
 
I think I have 2-3 vacations. I got a PM after the last one saying the next one would be my last. Gotta love walking the line...
 
Once got an accidental vacation here that was reversed.

Got banned from the old Cinescape/Harry Potter forums about 4 years ago. Was kinda weird, they banned me from the Harry Potter half because I was mean to the emo girls, but they kept me as a moderator on the Cinescape half.
 
Adding them all up, I've had three one week bans here, a one day and a permanent ban from Nationstates, a permanent ban from TFNN, and a global deletion from Forumplanet.

EDIT: Two of them here were for quote nesting and one was for telling a member to kill an annoying girl at a bank.
 
Once, and from here.

It was a heady time. Off Topic was still a monster, #neochat was in its prime, that tomato girl had just gotten engaged, alkemyst had been exposed as a closet case and Syringer had failed to squash a spider.

I remember coming to the board right around the time viceland was closing and there were no real predators on this board so I set up shop pretty quick. I think a lot of it went unnoticed because I was rocking the same avatar as Samps0n. Those were the good old days.

There were a few warnings for the insults or hate speech and I finally got banned for a retarded toilet humor thread. I could have done a lot better and honestly I had big plans for my return. But...with all the forums since broken up and everything slowed to a crawl there's really no reward for epic threads. I have more fun driving niche boards into the ground these days.

& once from here for an extremely long nested-quoting incident.

I got a vacation from that one as well. It's the only time I've ever had a vacation from an forum. Never been banned either.

Banned from AT years ago (prior to this account even being created), a vacation or two. Banned or given long vacations form a number of web development forms for calling out scammers.


Now that I think of it, I don't think I have been given a vacation from AT in years. I must be doing something wrong.

you dont post enough top get notice any more 😉
