pft.

banning one of the respected members for what? sigh

It's possible he did something elsewhere with 1 of his posts or that the Mod is only joking and didn't give him a vacation.

possible. who knows.

I find it funny either way though. :D

[looks around hoping Mod don't get any ideas :eek: ]

Well it has taken you a while to hit Lifer,
reachable status, so I would say your worthy,
and not a post hound.

Discuss. :)

That means nothing. My profile was updated on my one week vacation... why would it be any different for a permaban?

you like to start things and assume things, in other words you are a troublemaker.

do you have knowledge that he was banned or not?

Question:
Did he pull a dannylove or did a mod give him a vacation?

I never said that he was banned. My post was just stating that even if he was permabanned, your previous post would still be worthless.

the mod quote doesn't specifically say it. though it may be implied if you want to interpret it that way.

if he was banned over that it's ridiculous.

you of all people shouldn't be labeling someone else's post worthless.

sometimes the mods are cryptic and don't always say "you are on vacation" or whatnot.
i took it to mean he he got a vacation so did others.

I'd look at your post per day and conclude that you're an old timer. The label has its benifits (free taco night w00t!).
