Hey, everybody! I've been banned! :D

    now let's talk about vikings

    Reason being that I was talking about what-is-wrong-with-tv-tropes/what-sa-has-noticed-about-what's-wrong-with-tv-tropes/how-poorly-tv-tropes-is-dealing-with-what-sa-has-noticed-about-what's-wrong-with-tv-tropes.

    (It has been on my ctrl-v for the past few minutes.)

    EDIT: To explain, I have actually been perma-banned, so I can't see the site at all.

    Being perma banned looks like this by the way.

    What sort of ban was it?
  • LegionnaireLegionnaire 2011-10-22 21:39:20
    It appears that the King of Heroes did not, in fact, have enough swords.
    Where did this take place?

    I was permabanned, so I can't see any part of the site at all.

    It's ironic because Shichi does not have my type of ban so he's able to pm the mods complaints and make alts, yet my type of ban doesn't allow me to do that.

    Essentially, I was given worse punishment than a racist.

    there has to be more to it than that

    I was thinking of piling on additional insults in my previous post, but decided against it because it would be immature.

    Instead, I'll have the moral high ground here and laugh at this sad excuse for an admin.

    "Oh, of course not. I guess I would say that may of us don't really consider Fast Eddie's thread zappings to correspond to "wrong to talk about" so much as "okay to talk about as long as he doesn't look at it, because even the rest of the administration doesn't seem to agree with it much of the time""

    Damn, it sure is passive-aggressive in that thread.

    So how's the PYRT thread doing in my wake? I'd hate for it to be my fault the thread got locked. It was one of the only sensible places left on TV Tropes.

    Come on, Malk. I don't see anything wrong about laughing at idiotic neckbeards and the retarded excuses they have for admins.

    You mentioned SA, there's no guarantee that the mods and especially FE to act rationally whenever they're mentioned.
  • TachikazeTachikaze 2011-10-22 21:50:14
    Well, one of the latest posts was Tzetze's bit that Abyss_Worm just quoted, with a bit on the end about how someone saying someone was gonna get banned for this was right. Followed by someone saying it was an interesting turn of events and someone laughing.
  • MalkavianMalkavian 2011-10-22 21:50:24
    What's crazy is this world.
    Kink: Laughing would assume there's something amusing about it, rather than just a headache I'd rather not deal with.

    SA really shouldn't come into it, really. What has to happen is that the community, and moreso Eddie, have to realize and address the problem.

    I know. Like, holy shit

    But anyway, I've realized that while TVTropes is an awesome site, one must stay as far away as possible from the forums as is conceivable. 
  • Abyss_WormAbyss_Worm 2011-10-22 21:51:25

    See above post.

    It always was the one I posted in the most after the fall of IJBM I since it was one of the few places where you could have more leeway in speaking your mind.

    One thing that annoyed me about the forum was not just the mods. If you tried saying anything critical, there would be several users trying to shut down the topic with thought-terminating cliches or shitposting (one of the reasons IJBM I fell).

    ^The trouble is that you need to use the forums to (attempt to) effect change on the wiki pages. Barely anyone uses the talk pages, after all.

    It was only a matter of time. I was getting increasingly pissed off at TV Tropes for letting racists and misogynists exist on their site.

    I'm actually more pissed off about the fact that Shichi was not permabanned and I was, rather than soely about the fact that I was permabanned.
  • JuanJuan 2011-10-22 21:52:08
    "No wonder you were on your own for so long" "It's the only way of getting useful conversation"
    Yeah, by now i'm with Malk. This whole thing reeks of bullshit and inanity. 

    Also, I wouldn't recommend basing your actions on such things as bitterness and to mock TvT just because they'd banned you. but whatever rocks your boat.

    It is amusing, in a schadenfreude-laden way. Because to be honest I don't see much hope for the community.

    Looking at the circumstances of Anne's ban again, and recent bullshit in the last remaining Troper Tales topic. I feel the urge to jump ship over to SA completely.

    I'd do that too, if only $10 weren't a fortune here.

    Also, they seem to be banning all the sane people. Of course, I'm immune, because I left quietly and I'm not sane anyway. ;)
  • StormtroperStormtroper 2011-10-22 21:57:31

    Also, what's that thing about SA's links to TV Tropes? I'd click one myself but at this point I wouldn't be surprised if there are consequences.

    It's only a matter of time before the site becomes a blithering hugbox entirely and solely composed of blithering hugboxes, after all the sane people have left or been banned.

    Whelp, no feelings of pride or loyalty left to that place. Were it not for the RP and two threads I'd probably just jump ship.

    Replace the RP threads with the TF2 and Warhammer threads, and you'll have my situation.

    I bitch about TV Tropes bitching about SA.

    Which of course I realize is no better, but god I hate TV Tropes.

    There, I said it. Fuck TV Tropes and its blithering hugbox of pedophiles and racists and otakus (using the harsh Japanese definition here and not the cutesy American definition) and misogynists and people who dress like they're in a hastily-put-together prohibition-era LARP.
