[notabanme] I can understand why users fed up with Facepunch are doing it, going out with a bang and all that. But why the new users? Is it some sort of idiot cull? ARE THESE BANMEERS IN LEAGUE WITH THE MODS IN AN ATTEMPT TO BAN IDIOTS?! [/notabanme] [highlight](User was banned for this post ("Dumb thread" - Benji))[/highlight]
There was one ban-me thread were [b]every single poster[/b] got permabanned for posting in it. I don't remember the ban-me, but the mod who did that must have been idiotic. It basically makes successful troll successful, considering how he knows that he's responsible for a whole bunch of long-time users being permabanned.
Idiots. All of them. [QUOTE=Leaf Runner;21662259]There was one ban-me thread were [b]every single poster[/b] got permabanned for posting in it.

so when they go down they can take others with them
Attention whores that think like "If i'm going away forever, then i'm taking more people with me!"

Apparently an idiot cull The mesage: Post on banmes
Ban-mes are basically a "If I go down, you will too." thing.
I think I remember the mods saying that the more obvious a ban me thread is the harsher the ban, unless it's a harmless thread turned into a ban me while theres posts in it
To get others banned.
They make banme's in the most popular forum so they get as many possible individuals banned for posting.
Attention, basically.
Stick it to the man

COMEDY HURR OPTION THAT GETS YOU PERMABANNED got a LOT of people
they usually are embarrassed and want to say "fuck you" before they leave. except, that doesn't change the way we feel about them.
[QUOTE=krobot700;21662629]Hezzy you monster![/QUOTE] That' nothing compared to the Great Idiot Cull of '08. Something like 500 people permabanned in a single day.
[QUOTE=The Chef;21662480]I think I remember the mods saying that the more obvious a ban me thread is the harsher the ban, unless it's a harmless thread turned into a ban me while theres posts in it[/QUOTE] I got banned like that once. It was a perfectly normal thread then about half-way through it was changed to a ban-me while I was offline. [editline]4:57[/editline] For [b]seven[/b] fucking days.
