[QUOTE=Chris122990;21950573]Why did the bunbans go away?[/QUOTE] Most of the people who got unbanned managed to get themselves banned again. It became too much work for the mod team.
I have a question. Shouldn't the moderators get their ban lengths in order? People who are intentionally trolling with a 100% shit-post ratio, and are here for no reason other than to piss others off, should be permabanned on the spot. Look at Soviet Beef, every single one of his posts is a shitpost, and yet he gets no punishment for tons of bans and shit threads every month. But yet people who are quality posters like Lankist get permabanned for small jokes. Even "First 10'r" is shitty.

There seem to be a lot of dedicated trolls (Soviet Beef, KmScMT, etc.) who seem to keep getting banned but get banned again for trolling as soon as they get back.

[QUOTE=Takkun10;21962373]Mods pick and choose who they ban on there own terms. Get over it.[/QUOTE] These people do nothing but shit up the forums and stifle legitimate discussion.

They get banned, yes, but either learn their lesson or never return. then there's members like Doug, Asher Roth, SovietBeef that post wittily to stir people up. They're picky and post things that are inflammatory, rude, dumb ironic shit, or otherwise things people don't do on this forum. You can ban them, but they know how to get back. They're not idiots at heart, they post on the edge. Honestly seeing one of them ruin a GD thread is worth more than 25 news threads containing boring discussions with pseudo-intellectuals and angst teens. Deal with it and ignore them if it bothers you. let the mods handle them

oh god he has been banned for trolling so many times.
On the topic of trolls and fucktards. Why isn't ph0ne banned yet? He has been banned repeatedly in the HW&SW forum for being a fanboy/ troll/ idiot. And yet, he does the same thing in the same place every time, at least the good trolls generate a chuckle or two, this guy just shit posts like a 12 year old all day. Hell, the only reason he came here is to advertise his griefing videos.

Complaining about trolling.
If you have a problem with a user's posts, report them
On the topic of the report system: I know it takes 2 reports for it to show up in the queue, but do they have to be 2 reports of the same type? Would a Flaming/Trolling report and a Spam report make it show up in the queue, or do they have to be 2 reports of the same type?
Nope.
[QUOTE=compwhizii;21967235]Nope.[/QUOTE] Nope, they don't have to be the same type?
So, if Garry has obviously been a member for over 2 years, and has more than 2,000 posts, why isn't he a gold member?
[QUOTE=Penultimate;21967928]So, if Garry has obviously been a member for over 2 years, and has more than 2,000 posts, why isn't he a gold member?[/QUOTE] He's an admin, he'll be in his own special group.
[QUOTE=Penultimate;21967928]So, if Garry has obviously been a member for over 2 years, and has more than 2,000 posts, why isn't he a gold member?[/QUOTE] I think because his "admin" usergroup overrides other groups, like the "Gmod.com admin" usergroup
He's the only admin. He just hasn't bothered with the usual red colour Admins have on forums.
There are primary and secondary user groups. Primary is the one that everyone sees you as.
I was looking around in the event log before, and found a load of people who had been banned for 700 days for, 'Losing lots of smartness in a single post'. What was this for?
It was if you lost ~5000 smartness in single post, you got the ban Also having really low smartness resulted in 4 days bans that didn't have event
There was that thread by Garry a little while ago about changing the forum software - is that gonna happen? [QUOTE=Dougstein;21950056]i have been on facepunch since jun 2005 and easily have 5,000 posts spread across like 150+ accounts[/QUOTE] I can beat that.
[QUOTE=opaali;21969295]It was if you lost ~5000 smartness in single post, you got the ban Also having really low smartness resulted in 4 days bans that didn't have event[/QUOTE] And to add on, smartness was basically your post count, and if you misspelled a word then you lost smartness.
