todd2r did not deserve his ban.


Agreed. 5 days for someone with a clean record (?) is ridiculous aswell

todd2r has, so far, been a public nuisance, mostly because it's impossible to tell where he stands. First he seemed an honest but earnest X1 fan, then he seemed like an obvious shill, then he seemed to mock himself as if he were just trolling this whole time. This is confusing, and leads to confusion among the community.

He has five days, then, to resolve his identity. Fan, employee, or troll?


Is that really your reasoning for banning him 5 days?  He was confusing you???  Does it really matter what his identity is?? Shouldnt a ban be based off a specific misbehavior and not because you were confused about his identity?

A very mixed setup, then suddenly he comes out like he's just been playing us the whole time or something.

Either way, this history was accumulated in under 2 months, so something's clearly up.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

Seeing his ban history, yeah... that seems fair.

Yeah, a lot of these things make more sense when you see the mod history for the user. Jumping to 5 days would have been very very harsh indeed!

I want us to start using 90 day bans.

Just because we can.

Im certainly not disputing the ban, I think it is perfectly justified.  I just think your reasoning for banning him is weird.  If he is trolling, just say he was banned for trolling.

Why exactly is it 2/3 stickied threads are Nintendo ... why not XB1 Gamerscore league/Playstation Trophy league?

Why did your XB1 undertracked thread get locked? It has no mod reasoning in the posts.

Think it was Smeags (only mod on at the time?) not overly bothered, I guess he thinks it was unneccsary. Considering all the hoopla about it at the time I thought it was an interesting point of discussion personally.

None of the mods lock threads without an explanation. The stealth locker is most probably ioi.



Signature goes here!

Unlikely. Thread questioning the sales of the site, no mod note...I'm 99% sure that your "mystery locker" is ioi who couldn't be bothered to post a ban note and decided to just sweep the problem under the rug.
