That thread is a feedback to warnings thread.  I don't think it's right that you banned him after I asked him a question about his previous banning.  If people can't discuss their "horrible behavior" to try to figure out just exactly what other people thought was so horrible about it and they can't respond to a staff question IN a thread that is supposed to be about feedback without some other staff member telling them to shut up, then ban them, then may as well lock the thread.  Seriously, I asked the guy a question, I had to leave for a bit and I come back to see how he responded and he's banned?

You can get an idea of what he's been doing from his answers on that thread.
I see your point, and we should take note of that on the future, but, he was unsaveable, he keeps repeating himself for a while now with that "illstop-pum! on stupid subjects" behaviour.

edit: ninja'd

but he wasn't still posting in that thread to discuss why he was banned
that was never his objective

his last three posts didn't even mention your question
all he was posting was that he would stop posting while continuing to throw in jabs


if he had legitimately wanted to discuss why he had been banned before, and that's what he had been posting about, he wouldn't be banned now

I thought you were doing your usual "airhead" gimmick in that thread and didn't really want to know about his bans.

This goes beyond the scope of you asking him a question and you wanting an answer. You should have already known about his previous bans as a moderator of this forum, as they happened when you were online and active.

As it happens I did want an answer.  I don't see everything the same way you guys do, I don't think anyone is "unsaveable" (except maybe vyx who actually managed to irritate me).  Most of you (imo) are overly aggressive in the way you deal with unpopular or potential trouble-causing members.  If you come across as being aggressive, mean, condescending, insulting, whatever else, then you can expect at least some kind of token resistance if not flat out defiance.   I don't want an answer from YOU about why he was banned, I wanted the answer from him. For him to put it into words... which he seemed to be doing.

What is the point of having a feedback thread if people get banned when they are asked to give feedback.

he wasn't banned for giving feedback

he was banned for his behavior and for his repeated failure to follow fairly clear-cut instructions from the staff

this started before your question and continued even after it

I know he was being a shithead, but permabanning him just seems premature.

I agree with this.

I wasn't explaining to you why he was banned and I never did explain to you in any post in this thread or in the feedback thread. Like I said, I thought your post was part of your "airhead" gimmick and I didn't take it seriously. I tend to do that often with your posts.

Him explaining why he was banned would have accomplished nothing. I don't know what you're getting at.

But maybe you're right, I probably should have given him a 1000th chance to redeem himself after he went into a thread to do exactly what I was trying to tell him not to do through the privacy of personal messages, as not to derail threads. Or maybe I should have let him derail Titiln's review thread some more, you know, since he doesn't like Titiln and he HAS to post in a thread that says "Titiln Reviews Characters" and was started by Titiln himself.

Having him explain why was banned and what he's not sorry about would have definitely stopped him from doing that. Why didn't I think of that.

As I said, we should have leaved him alone in that specific thread, we didn't and things turned out this way and he started his usual routine... that he was going to start sooner or later anywhere else.
I agree that the scenario where he was banned was not the best, but I totally agree with the banning, it's not the first or the second time he end up like that, it was really a sooner or later matter.

In your opinion; what is the purpose of that feedback thread?


Rajaa, he apologized for the cheap shots at titiln and he admitted they were childish.  Do you have a reason to believe he lied about being sorry for that?  He was being an idiot in titiln's feedback thread, but that is an entirely different thread in a different section started for different reasons than the feedback thread.   You can't force people to like each other, but when one apologizes for bad behavior I dont think you should reward them with a ban.

no, his sorry was not genuine
his only purpose for posting at all was to take jabs at titiln

after his half-hearted apology/jab at the community he was asked to stop posting
to which he responded with two more identical apology/jabs

i'm not saying i would have banned him at that point, but i also don't feel rajaa was really out of line

Believing in his apologies at this point is like believing in vyx enterprises international.

That's a perfectly valid opinion in that thread about a recent staff thing, and by themselves I see no problem with those posts, although not many would agree with his opinion. stating it once would have been enough I guess, but that seemed to be his initial intention, as stated in his second post. he screwed up posting a third time on that page, mgbenz immediately called him out on it, and the thing was a lost cause from that point.

I was not here in the time when he was last banned so I have no opinion on the ban itself.

when no one was found agreeing with him he went to the titiln review thread and tried to do the same there.
