I'm scared to post, that's why I stopped posting in the JUNK section for bit quite a while back. I always watch my step, cause I don't know where my next infraction is going to be thrown from! :(Quote:

the only difference is i dont care if im banned from there but here is different. i actually like this forum.
we've had a lot of crap happen here so i guess all we can do is sit back and hope that everything turns out ok. have faith in the mods to get things straight. they kinda have to.. i mean theres nothing we can do about it ..
I've been banned from loads've sites, I've even been banned here twice...Quote:

We are going to be strict for the next while to try and knock some sense into people. I have been fairly tough lately (starting to be known as the mean admin), but its all for the good of the forums.
No that was post whoring. Why would you post in a thread about Halo 3 that you "didn't have an xbox"Quote:

The rules are flexible to a certain extent. But then again I did just define it in the first post of this thread. :rolleyes:Quote:

does the joke have to contribute to the thread somehow?
EDIT: im not being a jerk. these are honest questions lol
somehow i feel that kaiser hates me.
its either that if i do something, he doesnt say anything at all about it.
or i do something, and he gets mad at me for something minor.
and kaiser. im not trying to start anything.
im just saying what i think.
Jokes are fine from time to time. We don't want to be serious prudes every waking moment on the forums. :)Quote:

All moderation decisions are made without any sort of "grudge" or feelings. Try not to take them personally. I'm trying to change your behaviour for the better. Nothing more.Quote:

the only site I've ever been banned from is the KH2 forums. I swear, they cant take a joke. I guess I should've noticed that from their game...Quote:
