ETC and Squanto were always butting heads, ETC had his strong opinions like many of us, but his sarcastic asshole ways were quite uncalled for most of the time.

Squanto called him out a few times and such and decided it was best to take a break, calm down, and maybe come back, we'll see.

What do I have to do to get banned, or even get a warning? This is something I've never experienced, so I'm not even sure where the boundaries lie.

This is only a half joke as I think knowing what is unacceptable is very similar to knowing what certain people were banned for.

It's a little different here than on the old boards I think.

On the WSOD, we had a code of conduct. You broke it, you got shit for it.

Here, it's a little more liberal than that. Basic rule, as Ice put it so well, is pretty much "don't be a douche".

The vast majority of people in the ban list here are spammers. There's a couple bans I don't recognize, and the others are Yhoshi's accounts.

Yhoshi had plenty of chances to knock off his bullshit.

He got a couple timeouts, polite PMs, then slightly less polite PMs. Wasn't just from me either.

His shtick of pretending he didn't speak english wore thin, especially when he spoke it quite well when he wanted to. I intentionally chose words in some posts that didn't translate well into German, just so see if he would ask what they meant. (It helps that my GF is has a degree in linguistics.)

After all that, he started personally calling out mods in his sigs, and just being a general prick. He got chances to knock it off, and more rope than he probably should have.

But whatever. It's done.


He definitely deserved it. I'm not questioning that.

I was just making an observation that these bans seem to happen and I never know about them. I got people pretty upset with a thread I started last year that MikeinABQ was banned for prior, but I had no idea.

Maybe we should start a thread and post members who have been banned with the reason(s) along side of each user name just so people know.


I think thats a good idea. As a small community its nice to know what's happening to some of our more unruly members. :P Some people may not like being put on a pedestal like that though.

Well, to be fair, looks like he actually did put the billboard up, and didn't steal the money.

He's still getting railed on over there for doing nothing but pimping his website. That amuses me. :)

Sad thing is that people are STILL donating the guy money to donate to Hunter's Hope. No doubt that if he actually does donate that money, he'll be taking a nice tax deduction from it.

Once he had some misinformation in one of his write-ups, so I left a comment correcting it, and he just deleted my comment and edited his article to the correct information. RUDE.
