Banning

Post by Cakephatt »

How about we announce banning before we actually ban the person so that he/she can defend themselves or so that other people could know about it? There aren't that many people who get banned that it could be that difficult, are there?

Ok since you’re posting under several accounts take this as your one and only opportunity to defend yourself as to why you shouldn’t be banned.

ha ha ha ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh christ. I was afraid of that. Because u love me? I don't know.
Now I know that u do like cheesy bites. And hell, the forum needs livening up every once and a while. Mr. Worm alone deleted at least 5 of my posts, and all together moderators must have deleted over twenty posts, most of which I don't think were offensive, but you could at least give me a reason why and pm me or something. I don't know, maybe I just am not that big of a dos game enthusiast as you are, but you have to admit that I do help people. Even under the name Beeflyonions! Look at the posts I made. I helped somebody find some game, and I gave my input on PC speakers. I also helped people open their minds a little bit about individualism in America and the unique culture of, not only Russians, but people all over this earth. People actually do drink urine sometimes in other cultures around the world, even Russians! So what if I like to stab cats? If you don't find stabbing cats funny, and the picture of me with that knife funny, or the cheesy bites commercial funny then, brothers and sisters, I don't know what this world is coming to.
I also may have brought to attention how we need to actually talk to people that we don't understand instead of just banning them. Look at the soviet caveman. Most forums find him as a disturber of the peace, evil and insane. I decided to bring him to this forum to see if people were any different, maybe they would discuss why I can't say happy birthday to myself, or why I can't say I don't like capitalists. People need to establish themselves and understand the problem as between two parties instead of simply passing judgement so quickly. People need to be more open to different ideas so that we can have a constructive forum instead of just banning people that we don't like. I understand if something is offensive, and if we explain that we don't like Russians and give them a good reason why, then we can be constructive, we are making progress. But if we don't establish an understanding between two parties, and just go ahead and argue, we aren't doing anything but being ignorant and uncivillized. We, as Americans, have been throwing all of the progress we've made so far out the window. We've been focusing on not establishing ourselves as a people, unique in our own way the same way Russians or Indians (not Native Americans; the current civil war in America is a whole seperate issue) or the Chinese are, but as a political state which is isn't able; it is self-absorbed only be able to function by oppressing that of which we cannot understand.
That is why you and I, brothers and sisters, need to begin the revolution which is the evolution of the mind (That's a public enemy line right there), yes, even on this dosgames forum.

And by the way, I have nothing against Russians, Russia, Communists or Burgerking.

Sincerely, Cakephatt/beeflyonion/cavemaninmywashingmachine/

P.S. Can I keep the name beeflyonion? I can ditch the cakephatt profile all together, but I really like that name. :angel:

-heh, as if TSM is capable of banning people anyway. We do discuss a banning before it's done, though generally in private instead of in front of the forum. Obviously some bannee's (like the porn posters and e-mail spammers) don't get any warning beforehand. Other than that, I'm fairly lenient.

Locked, btw.

Ok I think I might just quickly add I wasn’t serious on the ban thing, it’s not my place to say who is and who isn’t banned, I was just gauging what kind of person you are.
