once for making a parody of a thread about skittles and making mine about pot

once or twice for night crew neffing

i think once for nested quote stuff, maybe? :shrug;

i don't remember...any mod wanna verify?

3 on the record. Would you like some more punishment?

Mod

FWIW i know i've been banned 4 times, once for telling people (quite insistently, rudely & drunkenly, admittedly) to keep the Terry Shiavo crap in P&N, once for a ill considered joke, once for allegedly (😉) neffing with the Night Crew, and of course my permaban 😱

There may be others, but if there are they escape me right now.

5 + 2 FORMAL warnings and uncountable PM hints

The last time was for posting a funny pic of fromunda cheese - the mods deleted my post and didn't notify me so i posted the thread again... then everyone starts replying you're gonna get banned, etc. I asked why? Then all of the sudden my thread is locked. Well, being the persistent guy I am I decide to post it a 3rd time. Needless to say I got a nice PM from a mod saying enjoy your month vacation. It turned into about 40 days instead I believe. Ok, that's my story.

Same happened to me... though I just got an asshole PM. They just delete the thread and dont even bother with simply saying it got deleted. Thats the problem with the mods. Are they really that lazy? Or just assholes?

Best. Poll. Evar? idea 😀

both? thats why i think the mods should use regular sn and just have 'the tag', that way we know whose accountable.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We know who is accountable when threads are deleted or posts modified.

This thread can easily be locked if people choose to change the intent.
Those that cause it to lock will get the added bonus of increasing their ban count.

IIRC, my knowledge of the Fusetalk backend isn't vast but I believe that the Mods can perform all of their functions under their own, normal account. They just use the Anandtech Moderator account as a frontend for interacting with us. If they each use their normal account most of the time they can sort of keep tabs on who does what.

And if something goes awry I trust that there are enough of them to keep each other in check.
 
All my bans seem to be revoked just around the time for the tax thread.

Go figure😛
 
only once when i stupidely joined that massive quote thread about that woman who wouldn't live her captor. what about Goku? is he permabanned?
 
zero. 😀
Do I win something for good behaviour?

1st one- i forget what for...
2nd one- was that for killing the 1!=0.999 thread before multi post was disabled?
3rd one- not suer
4th one- being a jerk to a nice guy because I was having a bad night

I wonder if that count is correct....
I'll never forgive you for killing my baby.

*sniff*

Attempting to communicate with Mango in language that he may be able to understand is very difficult. Most ATOT people may think that it is redundant.

Once. I got a one month ban for nested quoting. It was only 2 quotes deep though.... a little excessive don't you think?

---------------------------------------------------
Did you learn your lesson?

If not, then it should have been longer

Anandtech Moderator


You misspelled been noob.


picky, picky

Mod

 
Um.... none so far. Some posts I was wondering.... I remember a thread about how to nuke a laptop I thought might have done it 😛

Anyways... cool thread. Now if only I can find a better "you're banned" quote in here 😀
