I'm UserLoser, but on the account UserLoser. because it says UserLoser is banned - why is UserLoser banned?
(http://www.userloser.net/wtf.png)
The forum should have something like a Bannedlist. Where the username is stated along with a reason:
iLurker - Moron
warz - got banned for being a smartass(did get banned*)
etc...
The list goes on, I can't remember the names exactly but you get the point.
Apparently you bothered some nonmember for something, and instead of banning that nonmember from the forum, you were banned? Which also points at how banning someone by username is completely useless, it's much better to ban by ip/8 and then reban any other ip range that posts using the same username.
But that wasn't the request! I was asked to ban 'UserLoser' so complied. Had he asked me to ban '*UserLoser*', his IP subnet, and his email address, the outcome would've been more complete.
So, a non member asks someone to get banned, so you guys ban them?
Because UserLoser seems to be as incapable of understanding a ban from the forums as he is incapable of understanding a ban from the channel, I humbly suggest you ban *UserLoser*, his IP subnet, and his E-Mail address.

Whatever floats your boat. I humbly suggest you work on things in life such as friends, girlfriends, taking showers daily, and the other things that a normal person does

Lmao!
I assume that includes stalking your battle.net heroes, seeing as how you have my routine down.

Sorry, I have to do this...
You're one to talk.
Okay, i'm finished.
Heh, I was banned from the vL channel for I guess almost a year. All I did to get unbanned was wait say 9 months, then asked to be unbanned. And Look, now im friendlist(I think).

Did anyone actually tell him why he was banned? I don't recall seeing it anywhere he could have read it.

I didn't tell any more than I did in this thread. And I still think it's a rather completely sucky reason for a ban from the forum. I haven't seen any posts by UserLoser that haven't been either good or easy to handle by a moderator ever since those evil karma links, which I did something about myself.
I just think we're too ban happy when people aren't obviously disrupting (spamming, advertising or not listening to complaints from the moderators)
And about that Karma thing, I think that was actually quite clever. :-)

It was very clever. I admire him for thinking it up. It increases his chances of passing a vL test if I were to hold one for him. That still doesn't mean it can go unpunished in this context.

I agree on both counts; it's like hacking/robbing a bank and getting away for it for awhile. Yes, it's impressive that he managed to do it, but it'll still be punished :)

Wasn't he punished for that a while ago? What does that have to do with him being banned?
Shit, you wanna talk about being banned?
I made one post on this forum a few months back and was banned instantly.. Not to mention I have been +z in [vL] for about a year and a half now :(
(Is now a happy +F)
What'd he do about karma?

Yes, and nothing. Or well, Cuphead uses it as a reason for banning him now, but as far as I'm concerned, he's been punished enough for that already.
I'm sure userloser will get over it.

I agree this is so unjust. >:(
Hmm, by any chance, does any non-member want to see Cuphead banned from the forum? :P
cough....sniff....ahem.... :-*
I have a cold.

Seems like a good guy.
Give 'em the boot. I have no support behind that statement.

I VOTE YES! At least here there is no 'idle ban' :P
After reading the last ten posts by hismajesty, I can safely say that I am not enlightened by what his posts contained. Boot em'
You guys are mean
We should pull up some threads about UserLoser when he first arrvived at these forums. ;D

No, mean is banning for no reason, he clearly stated a reason for his support of the ban.

What the hell, ban this UserLoser. guy too.
I can't believe how much so many of you want to jump on the bandwagon and ban people from a discussion forum, for practically nothing. How do you think it feels for these other people to sit at the other end of the connection and read what you're saying about them, after they've spent years taking part in the conversations?
Some of you just suck.

I agree; however, weren't you the one that banned UserLoser for practically no reason? Still... +1.
Edit: Added a space! :D
Edit #2: Oh yeah and the +1 is NOT for banning UserLoser.

I think a lot of it is sarcasm, but it's hard to tell.

how about you be quiet. You're always making stupid comments, and saying the dumbest things i've ever heard, along with asking me on MSN, "oh how come you don't hang out in Op [vL] anymore?", and you know the answer and why
You guys just need to lighten up. Perhaps sit in the sun on occation? Nothing good will possibly come from any non-moderator stating their -opinion- in this thread. I've been on different internet communities for about 8 years and I can honestly say the only time it has actually affected my life is when I found something/someone positive out of it(aka. Friends!!!). I've been known to joke around alot, perhaps too much at times but I can honestly say that in a day/week/month/year from now (depending on just how pathetically serious you take this) the only thing you will be able to realize from this thread and any internet argument is how much time you wasted on it. Go focus on something more productive.
Coming to a conclusion could be productive...
LETS BAN St0rm!
wow alot of hate going around. Yes lets ban Storm. This will never be settled people don't like people it's just how it is i know ive been banned before. Like they say you can't have everyone liking you there is someone who doesn't like you. i have no opinion on if he should be banned or not because it isn't my forum.
Meh, no one really pays any attention to storm anyway....
hmm, I think this thread has been beaten to death.
