Hmmm.

First, Junior Members are stripped of the right to make topics of their own, and now some Mod on a power trip decides to amuse himself/herself by re-naming threads and insulting the people who made them.

I think I'll take my leave of this place now.

To be honest I agree with Das Scotter

Society got banned for making a screw around topic, but when a Mod does it’s OmG TEh funny!

All those fuck around topics have sunk anyway, what a pointless exercise which got several good board members banned.

Appreciation?!?!

And folks wonder why things like this happen when a meta thread like this floats to the top of the GAMING FORUM.

Y'all can't get enough of it!

Just to clarify.. ah you know, fuck it. I thought it was pretty damn funny. Honestly, not that it matters, but crazy shit like this is why I dig GAF so much. This place is not filled with a bunch of uptight pricks who hold the TOS over all. They have fun, and you just need to sit the fuck back sometimes and watch the goings on before jumping in and posting a thread that asks what the fuck is going on.

I mean, the TOS is important, but sometimes people can be well within the lines of the TOS and need to get banned. And sometimes, the forum needs to go a little crazy like these title edits. It keeps it interesting, and culls the herd so to speak.

Hey we lost one Jr. Member already. Really, wasn't this worth it then? :D

If you crazy SOBs keep doing thread titles like: "BECAUSE I CAN'T ASK "WHAT'S THE BEST THUNDERCAT TO MOLD MY FECES IN THE FORM OF" then I don't think I'll ever get enough. :lol

I'm not, but I would in a second if I owned a DS. (I don't play handhelds)

Also, what will your town names be?
What features do you hope are implemented?
If online play is possible, which GAF members' towns would you like to visit?

:lol
Very funny.

Know what else is unfunny, overblown, and very, very stupid?

Neither do I.




P.S. It pains me to ban a Firefly fan. :(

With all the towns renamed our maps are useless, and we're crashing here.

With pretty much anyone else, I'd be able to safely assume this was a joke post.

Don’t get me wrong I love clever title edits and I have never ever had a problem in the past but this was just a but too immature for my liking, regardless people shouldn’t be banned over this.

And it’s not just one junior member society and hitman got banned.

Have you seen the post some of the junior members make? If GAF were high school (which it pretty much is), some of the juniors' posts would be like a guy who walks up to a group of jocks and says "Man, Jake Gyllenhaal is so farking hot!!" Lurk before you post.

i agree that tonight's mass renaming of topics is lame though. It's one thing when a topic is an obvious violation of TOS and it gets renamed appropriately. It's another when some mod decides to bitchslap a thread with his mod schlong IN ALL CAPS just because.

Hehe. I just find it amusing that people here keep track of others' old handles. ;)

BTW, Drinky, what made you flip out like that? Was it the fighter boobies thread? :lol
