I think I broke my own record at RPGNet

Post by Dogbert »

They've taken to banning me for any stupid reason, and now not even six hours passed since last ban expired when they came up with some other bullshit reason to ban me again.

...sometimes I wonder why do I even bother going back (or why don't they just perma-ban me and get it over with). There must be a similarly diverse community where I can get news on the industry and new releases.

The admin the old D&D wiki does that bullshit. He banned a guy for a month, and close to that month, rebanned him for further offenses.
He jumps like a damned dragoon, and charges into battle fighting rather insane monsters with little more than his bare hands and rather nasty spell effects conjured up solely through knowledge and the local plantlife. He unerringly knows where his goal lies, he breathes underwater and is untroubled by space travel, seems to have no limits to his actual endurance and favors killing his enemies by driving both boots square into their skull. His agility is unmatched, and his strength legendary, able to fling about a turtle shell big enough to contain a man with enough force to barrel down a near endless path of unfortunates.

I've been permabanned from RPG.net like two or three times now. Mostly because I ignore their bans and create a new account.

Was there a previous record?

A marketer generally perceives Soon as a finite, known, yet unspeakable time-interval; to a fan, the interval appears greater, and may in fact approach the infinite, becoming Never. Once the interval has passed, however, a certain time-lensing effect seems to occur, and the time-interval becomes vanishingly small. We therefore see the strange result that the same fragment of spacetime may be observed, in quick succession, as Soon, Never, and All Too Quickly.

Why would you go back to a message board that banned you?

RPG.net, despite the tremendous suckitude of mods and most forumites, has a tremendous number of posters. Order of magnitude bigger than the den at least. So it's a good place to, say, pimp your blog/rpg product/whatever.

"Quantity has a quality of its own."

That's usually where I go to be up to date on things in the hobby. Granted, if there was a place as informative that didn't suck as much, I'd be there in a heartbeat.

They have an RPG-focused subreddit, but since you can create subreddits for free on a whim that doesn't actually mean anything. I forget how popular the subreddit is.

I think I lasted 7 posts there....a mod (FVB? been a long time) said I didn't count as a person, and when I asked how to get person status...ban.

he does not count as a person
meaning he ain't seen as a person
or
meaning he ain't seen as a person that matters
read the first way, you have to attain status of person to matter.
it's snark.

Gotcha. I thought it was a post count thing, or something, but weirder.

I bet he thought you were a bot. Because only a bot would make intelligent posts.

Oddly, they seemed to find the idea that Good and Law as defied by D&D have enough wiggle room to permit rape paladins who redeem evil using the power of their holy spears to be both offensive and banworthy during the short time I posted there.
