May I ask as to why he got banned?
Wow! I tried getting to djmnv but the sites down so iI cant get to him. He kicks ass....wonder what he did?
I believe he and quzar were arguing.
He threaten a mod or two and he was breaking the rules all the time.
EDIT: heres what happened http://www.dcemu.co.uk/vbulletin/sho...5&postcount=87
generally being abusive to staff, myself included
Well fair enough. Gotta respect the rules, no matter how many posts or releases you have.
man i liked vettacossx
his mods were awesome
I still respect him... He helped all the time, helped everyone... Im sure there are still many members who respect him loads...
I do...
I have upmost respect for him, but rules are rules are rules!
well hes busy in colledge how ever u spell it anyway i also loved his mods but there was too much drama at the end, but i dont think he should have got banned he was really cool and i wish he was still around:(
Is he banned forever?
Looking at that post, id say that,even if he ws unbanned, he wouldnt even come back... I hope im wrong though.
yeah that's what I was thought, but I was just wondering.
He did the following...
REMOVED, I'm not supposed to tell you
I liked his mods, but if he is an idiot, then screw him! No DCEmu staff deserve that crap! Also, why aren't our names bold anymore?
it's not like his mods aren't gunna be anywhere else, he's not gunna stop modding cuz DCEmu banned him :rolleyes: well i hope not!!!Quote:

I wonder what happened to the Dcemu weekly too.
My article wasn't in the one and only issue,kinda hoped it would be in the second but it was never released.
i talk to vettacossx regularly on aim and im actually surprised that he got banned he is a very helpful member and contributes loads just look at all the mods. he was like one of the first members on dcemu and he's wicked funny i enjoy laugh's with him on acation..........they should relieve his banned and just simply make him apologize his senority on this site has at least earned him that much
i agree vetta was one of the coolest members on this site, i'm sure if everyone is willing to be grownups about this it can be resolved, there have been other members to post stuff that was against the rules and even had a few "disagreements" with mods/staff memebers, so what is so different about this?Quote:

I do believe that anyone here who doesn't think he should have been banned has not really read what he wrote (I don't blame you, it's quite difficult to read). Here are some of the gems, starting with a pm I sent him and his response:
Mind you, prior to this, I had removed his signature at least twice due to it being about 4-5x larger than it should have been.Quote:

That was all the 'sig problems' that had been had. After that DS69 managed to calm him down a bit, then he sent him a PM that went something like this:Quote:

Two of those I undeleted today, and were previously not visible. He had delted them to make it seem like he hadn't done anything wrong. To be clear, there were no disagreements or arguments between him and staff. He had huge sigs and posted warez links, and when they were taken down, he went ballistic. I didn't even ban him after all that. After he 'left' sometime around a few days ago, he posted a warez link in some random forum, and another senior staff member gave him a warning for it, saw he already had a few, and banned him when they say the 64 emu thread. If you still think he was such a great guy, well....
Wow, it's too bad he had to leave, I really liked him in the forums. All in all though, if what you guys are telling us is 100% of what happened, then you did the right thing to ban him and set an example for others. I just hope we won't be seeing this type of thing again here at DCEmu. :(
wow i didnt relize he did go a bit over board.......heck even my names in this but when soully pm'ed me bout changin my sig i did so respecfully and i commend vetta for sticking up for me but he went a lil too far with the ranting he's still my bro............he could have just avoided this by changin his sig
funny how something so small turns so big
That's the problem when people let thier ego's get a bit too big.
The staff here are cool people and don't want to ban people for no reason obviously, we want the site to be popular, so if he'd have changed his sig like we politely asked him to do numerous times he'd still be a posting member.
(The sig rule is to help everyone read the site, as it gets impossible sometimes with huge sigs, way bigger than the actual messages and you have to think of the poor people still on dial-up.)
Heck we even stayed calm after he'd flown off the handle more than once, but if someone is being abusive repeatedly it's in nobody's interest to keep them posting on the site, so he got banned.
As far as I know it's a temporary ban, so if he comes back and behaves properly he'll be fine.
well rules are rules i guess and it was nice of you guys just to give him a temporary banned. what happened to shadowprofet i was gone for a while and when i come back he's retired staff whats that about
I think he was going through some stressful times in real life and needed some time away from the computer. It was all his decision, that's about it really.Quote:

He was permanently banned actually. He abused the rules far to much and thought he could get away with it because of his reputation and status.
I remember him being a model member at one point so it saddens me he turned into this.
yea.....i too remember him too being a model member kaiser.... me and him use to be good friends...but i havent spoken with him since this all happened.Quote:

This really just came out of no where...i was kinda shocked when i noticed that he was doing all these kinda of things ( going against the rules )... its completely oppisite of what he was and how he acted.
WOW! I wonder what came over him! Thank's for undeleting the posts, quzar!
well i'm still gunna be looking for his mods, i mean everyone has a bad day and says stuff they don't mean but it's not my site so i have know say...he did make some valid points though, i'm sure some of u would agree(and by some i mean like 1 or 2) but we all choose to obey the rules even if we do use "ice-ohs"(thats for u SP :D) and other things not allowed to be on this site, we keep it our business
Well you see. He's doen this many times before. It seems more then just him having bad day to me. If he made a proper apology directly to the staff he insulted and cleaned up his act there is a chance we'd let him come back. However it would only make sense that the decision to pardon him would be entirely up to the people he insulted (namely Quzar and souLLy).
ohh, well i guess we'll have to see what happens thenQuote:

Please just calm down and apologise. Your mods were great and were in the perfect place, here at DCEmu.
Props to all staff for enforcing the rules fairly. You don't get that a lot nowadays
Just to make this clear this did not all happen in the recently, it was a month or to ago, when we had the problem with the sig (and then the abusive pms).
Its a real shame that this happend, but like Kaiser said, if he apologises to the staff, he could come back. We have no hard feelings against him, us staff have pretty thick skin (you need it), but we can't tolarate flaming for the sake of the forums, and community.
Its wierd to read these posts by Vetta because its like a different person writing.. He's a really friendly, helpfull, happy-go lucky, kinda guy who I consider a friend :eek: Rules are rules in the end and we all know them and the consequences of breaking them... Ive spoken to Vetta since and he's definately going to continue modding and contributing to the scene (he'll be at DJMNV still) :) Its a shame it came to this but I can see why and that type of abuse is unacceptable :(
Dammit.. I drew his sig for him :( I did do various forum friendly sizes for him though (in my defence!) :o I hope my sig doesnt piss people off too? :eek:
Anyhow.. Vettas actions were bad but his work and contributions to the scene were good so lets focus on that and await his next release :D
In at least one iteration, the size of the picture was fine, but then he had a good 20 or so lines of text along with it, which made it huge.
yay i hope he comes back well got to go im in school
Yeah vetta is in his on web now. By the way nice sig. Just remember i am your father.:eek: LOLQuote:

It would be quite a stretch to claim that both times he happened to break rules were on days where he had been subjected to some sort of trauma.Quote:
