just saying something someone doesnt like and get a ban. i went from everyday to once in awhile every few days. Mainly around thursday for the updates. I spend more time on other sites not so ban happy.

Same.  Though, I've only been banned twice.  Both really petty reasons that aren't remotely close to being a problem in the slightest sense.  The first time was because I failed to quote the  person I was replying to, and for some reason it was deemed grounds for banning.  The 2nd was a simple fact I'd stated, but, I'm not going to get into that.

After the 1st time, I told myself I'd not post but a single time in a thread unless it was my own.  Everyone started complaining about people leaving, so I quit doing that, but, I still don't post very often anymore.  I don't really have an urge to post anyway, so, if I'm logged out, I'm not going to sign in again for another few weeks, or longer.

I used to play games online, even administered on one of the servers.  Very fequently, people did argue and swear at each other.  I, nor anyone else were supposed to say anything to the people bickering, and swearing at each other, unless threats were exchanged.  It's simply what people do online.  Play a game on 360, or PS3.  People argue, they swear, they talk smack to each other, that's why it was all fair-game when it happened on those servers.

No big deal, and that's the mentality people had, and everything was cool.  No, you couldn't spam swear words, or you would be silenced for a few hours (still allowed to play in most cases).  But, I'm just from a thicker skinned place, and I don't see how some of you people can get so offended, then turn around and get online with your console without reporting everyone you meet to microsoft, sony and nintendo.

I don't think I've ever reported anyone before.  Here, or anywhere.  Toughen up a little.
