What happened to newbball?

[-Habanero-]

I literally only found out today that he got banned. He was a squeaky troll alright but what actually prompted a mod to ban him? Nothing in his last posts suggests a cause to do so.

[redwudz]

He was banned for a month after warnings. Some posts may have been deleted.

So what was the straw that broke the camel's back?

Well let's think a minute. Could it have been homophobic slurs? Nah, we know the mods don't care about that.

Lmao, misspell a simple word in your poll and be banned! Harsh. On another note, I just quickly looked at his posting history again. Did he seriously append the same smiley to every goddamn post? I smell an autist.

I agree that newpball's constant use (and abuse) of the polls feature was probably what did it. It got to the point where nearly every time someone disagreed with him, he created a new poll.

I don't recall a post without a smiley, no matter the tone of the language.

Who cares why s/he was banned? If trolls posting repeated homophobic slurs and other hate speech aren't banned, the mods have lost all integrity.

Since when does democracy determine technical facts?
Some people...

You really wanna know why I was curious? Because he reminds me of you. Either way, as you admitted to being a snitch in the other thread, I got nothing to say to you. Tend to your steers.

I posted my comment for the mods' benefit. It is them I have a beef with. You, sir, can go jump in a lake for all i care because you are a troll of the highest order:

1. Engage in repeated homophobic slurs
2. Attempt to shame anyone who stands up to you

You obviously enjoy some privileged status with the mods which is why you haven't been banned. They conveniently disappeared the Donald Grath thread to erase evidence. That is why I am calling them out. There is only one course of action that will restore my faith in the mods.

^^ Actually my friend, if you have ANY issue with a member's post, the correct course of action is to 'Report' the post - that is what the little graphic to the left is all about.

Dissing a Mod in an open forum, even if you think you are in the right, makes you no better than the 'trolls' who you are happy enough to proclaim since that post is, itself, guaranteed to have a reaction. In fact it is a short road to getting yourself a warning or even a ban.

And BTW mods are under no obligation to inform in an open forum why any member has been banned. They might tell you by PM but that is their prerogative. The rest is pure conjecture.

They were opinion polls, although not in the usual sense. They were mostly about expressing newpball's opinion of VideoHelp's membership.

You never swam in a lake before? It's fun. A lot more than sperging out for years on pointless philosophical debates I'd say.

you are a troll of the highest order:

Teehee! Stahp! You're making me blush.

1. Engage in repeated homophobic slurs

Crimea river, Mr. Social Justice Warrior.

LOLOLOLOLOL.

Not a very subtle mod ass-licker are you? It's ok, whine a little louder and they'll make all your dreams come true.
It worked last time when you begged them to close your thread after the replies you got made you cry too much. -.-

Well that answers my suspicions of that guy. Autism confirmed. Didn't he get a few useful members banned tho? I hope they reversed that shit. I want sanlyn back.
