Ban

[vetta64]

Uhm so I got banned for being on two computer at the same time, which I realize might not have been the best idea since now I can't play HS today, and I actually have time to play and I know I'm missing out on some awesome basing games since Brain was so awesome as to bring back the pub limit again.

 

Anyhow, what I wanted to say was that Banning might not always be the best diciplinary action by the mods. I am as I was told by HS hopelessly addicted and so Im not going to leave, but it occured to me that if I were new, and I was banned for a week that I would start playing in another zone, and after a week of playing in another zone I might be addicted there instead of HS. Or even worse I might play another game entirely..

 

Of course this will not happen to me and I'll come back and play when my week is up, but I thought that decreasing money, or degranting items, or money, or something related to HS might be more effective especially with some newer players, depending on the offense.

 

Thanks.

Oh and I was also hoping, since this was my first official ban, if someone could post on the website what each ban number meant. That way it would be clear to everyone what was a bannable offense. Either way I really would like to come back and play now. See you all later.

Dude just go play EG it is some what better then hs when your bant.

[mij]

he means that he wants every banID and matching bancomment posted publicly

 

which, i mean...lol

[Lera]

do you mean ban number by your BanID#?

because thats not like a Reason Code... thats just an ID number. +1 for every ban made

 

also most things are common sense..

like: WHY the !@#$%^&* are you playing on TWO computers at once? how do you think that that's a good a idea?

I know what I did that is not a question, I though that each ban offense had an !@#$%^&*ociated Ban # if that is not true then disregard that question, moving on.

Hyperspace is allowed to touch whatever post they want as it is their forum.

Common sense in Hyperspace? Why sir, you must delusional.

 

This thread feels like a person trying to convince mods to unban him in a non-direct way.

I'll personally ban you from these forums if you do that again.

i curse in the zone all the time, i thought the rules changed.

Also, there is NO such thing as bad language. the words (which im not going to name for obvious reasons (no not that i dont want to)) are words we use to express anger, fustration, and rage.

Say a 50 year old man who's been working at a company gets laid off after 25 years of faithful service, and loses pension, benefits, everything. Do you think he's going to sit down and go, "Oh !@#$%^&*feathers."? i didnt think so

Cussing has no place in this zone. The rules have never changed. Mod enforcement has grown lax, but that doesn't mean you won't get punished if they happen to be non-afk.

[tcsoccer and neptune]

who says !@#$%^&*feathers? is it even a word?

[Lera]

hahaha !@#$%^&*feathers

[protocol_]

!@#$%^&* feathers

 

a word of exclaimation like "$h*&!". Used most often when angry about a mistake thats been made.

 

 

 

Man 1: I totally missed that shot! AH !@#$%^&* feathers!!!

 

 

 

 

 

Urban dictionary ftw!!!!!

sounds kinky imo

[Stibbymicto]

Protocol_>!@#$%^&*feathers you figured me out!

You can read minds?

No one seem to have answered this yet...

 

The BanID is a unique ID given to each individual ban, it's not !@#$%^&*ociated to a particular offense type. Mods/admins can add a ban comment with each ban that describe the offense, but these concern each individual ban, and often contains information that should not be disclosed (aliases, IP's, etc.)

 

So yeah, disregard that question

 

Also, your argument about new people getting banned leaving or whatever... You do get a warn first (for most offenses, anyway); if someone keeps breaking the rule(s) after a warn, chances are Brain's crew don't even want that person in the zone. Quality is more important than quan!@#$%^&*y <_< 10 nice people is more fun than 200 cheaters in a zone.

thats what i thought you had the filter in place for.

no, thats the point.

 

 

i stole that explanation off of a Lewis Black rant on bad language.

 

Edit: caution, some strong language
