Only when I read discussion and a person is banned for some reason. I usually check why if the specific thread I read on didn’t have any ban worthy post.
 
Rarely , only if i see some commotion about a ban or noticed someone was banned (for curiosity reasoned). Generally if someone was banned it was for a good reason..

This is the first time I saw, and I'll probably never see again

Also, holy shit, that's a lot of permanent bans... Also², how so much people get into racist and antisemitism stuff in 2024?!

Never.

I have nothing against any of you, nor do I truly know and memorise most posters apart from a few mods cause their names are red.

I guess it’s exactly the same way the other way around.

I check it almost every day to see if I’m on it. But then I remember if I was on it, I’d get a full page notice. 🤣

Follow him on X/Twitter. He posts most of the same stuff there he would post here. I, personally, don’t miss him and if I want to get his batshit crazy take on something Xbox related, I know where to look. 🤷


Just went to take a peek at this twitter and saw this lol

I don't go on twitter at all unless it is to check out his posts.

I'm not exactly sure why but it gaves me massive amounts of self confidence as I have never seen someone so completely lost and utterly submissive towards a plastic box made by a trillion dollar company.

Sennin should quite literally be a case study for identity crisis evoking corporate boot licking

edit: when he's not fighting microsoft/xbox, he will be over-analyzing every line of lyric in the whole drake beef thing. just goes to show you what kind of underdevelopped fucking manchild he is

i voted weekends only but it's a lot more rare maybe once if i'm absolutely bored and i've run out of other things to browse and i'm stuck at work at the same time. i actually forgot about it until i saw this thread.

also there's rarely a link to the offending post which takes all the fun out of it.

it's nothing to do with beef it's just another thing to mindlessly browse that might be slightly amusing

I check whenever a spicy thread pops up. It's fun seeing who went over the edge and then the inevitable mod comment "take two weeks for the console warring."

I've been aware of it but never seem to remember checking it regularly. Bookmarked it now, it's pretty entertaining reading the reasons for the account being banned because sometimes you realize just how many times they've been warned and still repeat the same behaviour.

That said, would love to see more Post links to see exactly which straw finally broke the camel's back.

Yeah used to be a lot of links to posts just so I could see what happened. Now it's very rare.

Bring it back!!

Daily, but lately there are never "post" to check but just general bans :(

To add some clarity to this - the overwhelming majority of bans these days fall into one of these categories:

1) The user that's banned has chronic infractions, so their ban isn't exactly related to a single post
2) The user that's banned posts something which needs to be deleted (usually porn) - and we can therefore no longer link to that specific post

We've also had a big shift the last few years to using other disciplinary tools such as warnings, talking directly with the user, and reply/thread bans and only use a site-wide ban when it's obvious that user isn't getting the memo. Or makes a total ass of themselves by creating a thread to whine about us or some minor action we took against them.

I'll try and remind the team here to share relevant posts, when possible and appropriate.
 
Strange. I had some 4chanish type of posts, and they deleted them and told me to knock it off. How bad you gotta be to get banned in this motherfucker.
