Sure, why not.
No, he can go over Niagara falls in a barrel, for all I care
Sephiroth,
Don't use such dirty tactics to get what you want.
There was no reason to close the "now playing" thread.
Since my return, I have in no way caused a disruption to anyone at Zeropaid.................in fact, the only person who seems to have a problem with me, is you.
Open the thread back up, others who posted in it, don't deserve to have it closed.
As for your problem with me, well, last time I checked, the only ZP rule I broke was the vulgar language used in my signature (the f-word). Others who have been banned (temp, and permanent) have been at least warned. My sig was there for my (maybe others) amussment, and nothing else.
Judging from the explanation post you made (which someone supplied me with), it seems you based the banning (temp ban, 3 days), more upon the simple fact that I don't like you.
So, in essence, I was banned for printing my thoughts. Thats a gross misuse of power, by nothing more than a spoiled child. Of course, I could have sent you a PM on this, but what good would that do? You certainly don't have to answer to anyone (except for those who allow you to be a mod). What's the point?
Unban Ken17625, and I_Only_Kill_On_Tuesday (or 1 of the two, I don't care), and stop banning me on sight, for no valid reason.
I came on and saw the 'now playing' thread with a little lock on it... clicked and went to see why... and hell... I don't know why. Because Ken posted under a different name, with a dedication (somewhat) to Seph? Good reason to ban someone. Maybe because he was banned under his other name, and was there with another? He hadn't started any wars, any fights, hadn't done anything in his 5 posts.
Not sure where I'm going with this but Seph, sheesh, get a dictionary and stop being so damn trigger happy.
Now stop being so freaking nice, and buy a stun gun. - Krell
Ill unban you.. Poof.. Which member are you,?? Ken the birthday boy???
And here I was, in my birthday suit, ready to take on that mighty water fall!
shawners, you warm my heart........and certain places in my nether region.
ahhhhhhhh Krell is transforming him :P
lol j/k no offence to either of ya just the first thought that came to my mind
-NEVER ARGUE WITH A FOOL; HE WILL SOON BEAT YOU WITH EXPERIENCE
-EAT AND SLEEP. YOU MIGHT THINK THAT'S A GIVEN BUT NO-IT'S NOT. EAT AND SLEEP. IDIOT.
Awww..... that's nice!!shawners, you warm my heart........and certain places in my nether region.
I cant understand for the life of me why a 68 page thread like 'Now Playing' was closed without explanation. That doesn't say much to the rest of us who didnt post perceived offensive material. Why not just censor the offensive posts?
I think humor should be taken in stride, particularly on birthdays..we all need to laugh at ourselves. But that's just my opinion. On the other hand, there's no need to bait each other..unless its in good fun, and we should respect the Mod's positions, as they are mostly giving their free time. At the same time, the Mods also need to also be respectful; I havent found that to be the case when we disagree on political issues. (See "Who would you vote for')
Perhaps the forum rules need to more clear in a community like this... A warning should have been sufficient until the (mis)communication was cleared up. No Capital Punishment for Ken!
You ain't going to impress too many with your new sig... Might help with your longevity...
Sephiroth has no sense of humor, what else would you expect from the final villain of FFVII? He has a big sword though... watch out for it! You wouldn't want to be on the receiving end. You know what he did to Aeris...
BTW... I enjoy a reason for closing a thread when it is closed by the moderator that did so. I think that shows that the moderator is a stand-up sort of human being and shows that the moderators are accountable for their actions. when I see a closed thread, I wonder why it is closed. A simple reason (even if it were a form response, e.g. #13 Closed for Trolling) added to the end makes everybody involved in the closed thread feel less personally attacked for having their conversation ended.
"There's a passage I got memorized. Ezekiel 25:17... I been sayin' that shit for years. And if you ever heard it, it meant your ass. I never really questioned what it meant. I thought it was just a cold-blooded thing to say to a motherfucker before you popped a cap in his ass. But I saw some shit this mornin' made me think twice… The truth is you're the weak. And I'm the tyranny of evil men. But I'm tryin', Ringo. I'm tryin' real hard to be a shepherd."
Kill the evil demon fight the power!! take a stand for what you believe in!
meh
My opinion about this?
None of my business really, i just worry about myself getting banned.
Im just messing with you seph dont ban me please :)
meh
Some moderators forget the meaning of the word moderate..... There is no good reason for closing a long lived thread just cos you hate someone or they insulted you. Sooner or later a lot of people get insulted here and while it isn't nice it is to be expected sometimes. Obviously it's different if it is a regular problem, a harassment type situation. If someone's sig is too offensive then just pm a warning and allow reasonable time to change it. Maybe be Sephiroth should get a ban of a few days for pissing off so many people at one time and not even offering a justification.
note: there is no "please don't ban me" plea here. Do what you like...if you can justify it.
"You have already proven what you are...
a troll chucking flaming spam out..".....who me?

No,he's just being Yoda. But I agree, the mod who closes a thread should post the reason. That way the rest of us aren't sitting here going "huh"
