If you have nothing to ask or answer about the forums, don't post at all.
Can we get the Marketplace put back on the front page?
when are moderators going to start banning actual trolls. you know, dickheads who make sarcastic posts whenever they can, tell people to "stop posting" and turn the forum into a shithole.

You still make the dumbest bans around. If it's to do with black people but not particularly or even remotely racist - it's racist in your mind.
TH89 isn't even black, he's a wigger.

while i agree that thaytey goes a little overboard with the racism ban sprees, they're still pretty legit bans. saying "it's only racist to you and does not seem racist to me" doesn't mean it's not racist. you're just about as in the clear as he is. "it doesn't seem racist to me" "it seems racist to me" can go back and forth as long as you're willing to argue a stupid point. fact of the matter is that he is the moderator and he has the personal discretion. as long as it can be classified as racism, you've got no argument.

Doesn't stop the fact they're absurdly OTT, to the point I think he's trying to find a racist meaning in any post that even touches on race regardless of its intentions.
Is PUI still bannable?

Moderators aren't magic, we can't tell if you're drunk or high if you still post normally. If you post nonsense and admit in your post that you're massively drunk/high then you'll get banned, obviously.

It's just that I remember a couple of years ago when you got banned for even hinting that you were drunk at the time.
what is going on here?

Just a forum bug, database had a bit of a fart
[quote]1. This rule list is not total, the excuse 'it wasn't on the rules list' isn't applicable. This is not a democracy.
2. Respect each other. Don't call each other names.
3. Don't reply to a thread just to say it's shit.
4. Don't troll. Don't reply to a thread about The Simpsons to say that Family Guy is better.
5. If someone does something wrong, report them. Flaming or attacking them will get you banned.
6. Don't reply to threads that are made with the intent of the user getting banned (ban me threads)
7. Nudity is fine. If you want to post pictures of an erect penis or penetration of any kind do not [img] tag it.
8. Don't post child porn.
9. Purposely breaking any of these rules with an alt account will get all your accounts permabanned.
10. Use descriptive thread titles. Things like 'Help' or 'Something I saw..' aren't descriptive.
[B]11. Do not link, hint or talk about warez. Discussing games that you have pirated is fine - but we don't need to know that you pirated it, or where you pirated it from. Anyone that asks for links to pirated games will be banned.[/B]
12. Do not make parody threads.
13. If you're posting a link to a news story say why and/or state your opinion. Do not just post links.
14. Do not copy and paste new threads from a website.
15. Do not post things like 'I smell a ban' or 'this is against the rules' or 'wrong forum'.
16. Spell properly. This isn't GameFaqs.
17. Do not reply to threads just to reply. Replying with things like 'uh.. ya' or 'what' will get you banned.
18. If you're replying to a thread asking for help, HELP OR DO NOT POST.
19. Advertising your website is fine as long as it's relevant.
20. Don't steal stuff and claim it as yours. Don't use this rule as an excuse to bitch if you're not credited for your work. They need to claim that they made it.
21. Read the thread before replying. If you reply to a thread based on thread title you will get banned.
22. Don't make new threads to announce your birthday. No-one cares.
23. Don't make threads to get us to make up your mind about something ie 'Should I get a PS3 or XBox360?'. Make up your own mind. Don't use this rule as an excuse to flame people for making a thread to ask opinions ie 'What is the best MP3 player?'
24. Posting Image Macros will get you banned. It isn't clever. Just use words.
25. Replying with hilarious meme's like 'Stick it in her pooper' will get you banned.
26. Replying to threads like you were the guy they were talking about in the first post isn't funny.
27. Making obvious threads to earn ratings will get you banned.
28. DO NOT ACCESS THE FORUMS VIA A PROXY. If you're viewing the site through a proxy and you have the same IP as someone using that proxy to spam you will also get permabanned. I don't care if your school blocks the forums.
29. Don't make threads about how unfair your school is.
30. Don't make threads about religion, unless it's in a religion forum.
31. Don't make threads about dreams, unless it's in a dreams forum.
32. Don't make threads asking if your computer can run a game.
33. This is not an obituary forum. Don't post threads about how your relative/friend/cat died.
34. Blindly defend Facepunch, even when you know you're wrong.[/quote]
I guess the old rules don't apply as much any more since they were removed from the site, but it's still relevant.

Benji, that mapping forum banning spree was uncool man, uncool, especially when 90% of us got banned for constructive criticism shit when the thread wasn't even made by the guy.
[QUOTE=Benlecyborg;17827901]I mean things like, "I think warez is bad". Is that still banable?[/QUOTE]
No. I had a brief chat about garry on this issue and he basically doesn't want people going HURR HURR HURR I "acquired" THIS GAME HURR
as far as i could tell he doesn't mind people discussing things like thepiratebay or warez in general, just as long as it isn't being distributed or people aren't bragging about downloading then it should be ok

I'm aware of the sentiment. Sadly, it's wrong. But I've more or less chalked it up to you kids playing FPS games when you could be reading about sociology :colbert:
But rest assured that my bans do have well-considered reasons, which I'd be happy to explain on a case-by-case basis if you like.

Nearly everyone that replied in that thread was trolling him or making shit replies at some point.

This isn't the place to discuss it, but you did go overboard a bit.

You're asking a question about the forums, correct?
are there rules about moderators making absolutely terrible posts in the oify then ironically banning people who make marginally better posts than them?
if so, then boy have i got news for you!
