TheFlyingPig quotes

[Number1]

Seriously, the quality of any one of his posts is better than the combined quality of all 4K+ of yours.

Maybe you should get a room with TFP. I hope you're not overweight.

 

[Number1]

really? he was banned for this?

As if it wasn't bad enough and add to that the multitude of warnings he had received in the past.
Now he won't come back because he needs to write an apology.
Sucks to be him.
LOL

i think the mods owe us all a public apology for taking away our flyingpig

 

[Nik]

You make it sound like he got unjustly punished.
Here is the actual quote you fuckhead:

Theflyingpig to somebody who just lost his cat in this thread:

i'm a big wuss, i can't find my cat, and i want to cry Update: still no cat =*( wahhh

"Oh, I know he was awesome, but he's dead now. That soft, furry body that gave you so much love is now a ravaged carcass, rotting in someones yard. I'm sure that person is going through their own personal hell right now, trying to decide what to do with the body. It's not easy, I know, but it's something you just have to get over."

and the resulting comment from the mod:

Take the next month off. Before coming back, you will be personally and publicly apologizing to the OP for your astoudingly cold-hearted ignorance.

He got what he deserve and I can't wait to read his apology if he ever decides to come back.

That doesn't deserve a month off. How typically pathetic.

The Flying Pig has been sighted!

mods gone out of ctrl on this forum

Suck it loser.

TFP needs to come back. As much time as he spent being a part of this place, he should just get his mea culpa over with quickly so everyone can get back to business as usual.

...or, the mods could offer an amnesty for all banned posters. Those that behave would get to stay on a trial basis. It certainly would bring some life back to these forums that existed prior to the ATPN split.

Agreed, I've read much worse.

You're kidding right? No fucking way he got banned for that. How have I not been banned?

I disagree, someone that insensitive deserves a ban for that. I don't think he'll ever apologise he's too pathetic. Being an offensive moron isn't funny no matter how hard you try.

You would know

No I wouldn't.

 

[surfsatwerk]

No I wouldn't.

Exactly

 

[HAL9000]

Exactly

Yep.

 

[Delita]

If only TFP went the "small minded asshole" route instead, then he would still be with us.

One week off for the mod callout. Think carefully next time before hitting the send button

Someone clear this up for me but how exactly do you post a public apology if you're banned?

I believe that if he chooses to come back his first post needs to be an apology... :sneaky:

 

[child of wonder]

Weak.

He shouldn't have been banned for that. Maybe a PM asking him to be a little more thoughtful was in order, but that's all.

 

[Arcadio]

People get banned in ATOT for the stupidest reasons.

 

[IAteYourMother]

That's why these forums have sucked ass the last few years. Thank the mods for their "change of culture"

No, people get banned for pissing off the wrong people. Plain and simple. Target someone directly that a mod has a hardon for, and your ass is toast. Maybe it wasn't that post that fueled the fire, but I would wager that the mod that banned him either directly or indirectly had a friend who TFP pissed off in the week or 2 previous to the ban.

Such is the nature of power on the interwebs. Don't read too much into that particular post. Consider it a cumulative thing.

Pretty light here actually TFP would be long gone anywhere else...most would not understand his dark comedy..it was subtle so it took post count to realize, post count that would not be afforded to him most places.

 

[OVerLoRDI]

Taking a man who talks about farting on his cat seriously? I wouldn't, and neither did TFP. Sadly the mods did. I miss him.
