Tell Us Who Got Banned Thread Closed?

Sirkickyass said:
Threads that get started specifically to continue a discussion in a locked thread should ALWAYS be locked/merged/deleted. That's been standard practice for virtually the entire time I've been a moderator (which is running up on 6-7 years now, so this isn't a small sample size). Otherwise the lock power has no real purpose because people will just continue the conversation even after we've locked it down. To be clear, you and Archie are not the first people that have tried to continue a locked thread and you won't be the last. That's what we (or at least I) always do in that situation. You may have thought you were being singled out, but you were actually being treated like everybody else. Not merging/locking would have been the special treatment.

Like I said earlier, I recognize that you probably got hit a little harder than you normally would have because you and Archie were working together and he pushed it farther than you did. There was probably room for differentiated treatment and instead you got universal treatment. I understand that perspective. I hope you understand mine.

I understand that but I guess I don't feel like it was a continuation of the thread and/or types of posts that got locked. Some people were legitimately confused as to whether our "fight" was real or not and we were making it abundantly clear that it was all a hoax, but then you immediately merged and locked those threads and before I knew it I couldn't even sign on to Jazzfanz...

That's a judgment call. I made it one way. You might have made it another.

At some point it's clear that the call has been made. Your recourse is to run it up the chain to Jason or colton, not to make more threads and/or posts in unrelated threads.

Hard to do when I am already banned and can't access the site.

A) That was your recourse before you started making more threads.

B) The e-mail address is always available to you regardless of your ban status. How do you think perma-banned posters contact Jason to get back in?

I have told you publicly that if I were to do it again I would have not put you on time-out at the same time I put Archie on time-out. With a little hindsight I can see that was a mistake. That's probably as close as you'll ever get to an apology on a message board so you should just take it and move on.

I will get caught up on my Jazzfanz handbook. I am not an expert on how to contact mods and or admins when banned seeing as I hadn't received an infraction in several years let alone a ban...temporary or permanent. I will move on now though since you guys have at least acknowledged my side of the story and I received an "almost apology" from you.
 
I still think it's funny that kicky was one of like two or three people that thought our fake fight was real, to the point where he PM'd multiple about it and checked up on honz's well being.

I'll admit I thought there was a chance that it had some truth value to it. I had assumed it was completely a joke for several days. PKM sold your joke for you. I hope you've at least thanked him for doing the heavy lifting.

I'll also admit that I'm the douchebag that actually cared if someone was being evicted and his jerk of a landlord was making fun of his poor life situation publicly. That's an ******* that I'll take credit for being every day of the week.

Lol. The more you post, the better it gets.

First, I like how you're in honz's corner now with your "almost" apology and you make it seem like what I did was so much worse than what he did because I made one more post (I'm gonna get to that) than him as if he wasn't sitting right next to me posting in the same thread and after he submitted his post he's the one that found out we got banned.

Second, the post that according to you was annoying and pushed the turd over the hill was my post in the, Who are you thread, and it was essentially thanking/making fun of how PKM sold the joke to get our thread locked.

Silly rabbit, you may have da brains, and the lights may be on, but no ones home.

Boom, son. BOOM!
 
OK, that's enough of that. Don't make me close the "Tell Us Who Got Banned Thread Closed?" thread. Then we'd need to start a "Tell Us Who Got Banned Thread Closed? Closed?" thread.

It's clear that you were trolling the board, and as such deserved an infraction. It's also clear that you and honz disagree with how kicky handled the situation. Even if you are right, the minimal hours suspension you received was, as kicky said, at worst a slap on the wrist.

And if you keep this up and you'll get another infraction, this time for back seat moderating.
