No, it just means don't do stuff that will get you banned. Simple?

 but the people who get banned now (or the most) never got banned before for those reasons....Since the VG$ introduction a lot of users got banned for strange reasons like  QFT, LOL, ROLL etc...

Can't you just take some VG$ from them?  Like 25VG$ the first time...Do they do it again 50VG$ etc...

Yeah yeah ioi you are doing great work but I think this is going to far :s...

You think it's about the money?  That is so funny.

It's about post count.  Everyone knows that getting banned=loss of money (sometimes lots of it) but you never lose your post count.

The vg$ is not part of the problem by any means.  Right now the money doesn't have much purpose so it poses no threat, either made or lost.

A ban does take off vg$.

Listen, this forum is meant to be open and fun. We don't want to censor people too much.

However, we do have a line. And there are too many people spamming threads and generally creating pointless topics. If you do so you will be banned, similarly if someone ask you to do something and you go against them (however funny it may be).

Like I said, mods can have fun as well. Remember that they are in charge here.

 But you could say it before without being banned...I have around 3000 posts and I think I said like 20 times Lol, rofl, QFT that would mean I got banned now 20 times and that is around 20-60 days????



@ Super Etecon yes...Why do some get banned now, why they didn't get banned before?:  

Reason for ban:  Spamming...  and if I see the last post of that person I see that he made a thread like others before "Say something about the person above you'.

The guys who were banned for their "lol, rofl" etc. today, were banned because they did exactly this in a thread that asked people to not do these things by a mod. The reason why DKII asked people to stop this is because we had a thread by leo-j today which nearly exclusively had posts containing of "lol, rofl" etc.

Regards people who were banned for spamming: you should take a look at their posting history and view at least their last 15 posts, not just the last one before they were banned.


 Thats why they should take money from them and not especially ban them...but in Leo-J's case of course ban him...That was way to much...

Yup I checked some...And that bomberman avatar guy got banned for making a thread like 'say something about the person above you'.

I don't really have a problem with that, but you *can* edit your own posts, you know. ;>

I don't see what is so hard to understand in ioi's simple demands; adhere to the rules. It's like half the site has dyslexia or "Illwill-itis".
Let's not make this burgeoning and great site another Gamespot! The forums there aren't filled with text; they're littered!
