I got Google-Banned off of TvTropes.

Yeah.

I'm trying to see why right now. This isn't meant for importing drama, by the way. I'm trying to remain calm, because I'm really confused as to why. I never did anything really bad....

 

I hope this is another troll fucking with IP's and getting innocents swept up, like what happened to Komodin...

    If you didn't get a warning, sounds like it might be one of FE's bans.

    Are you sure there wasn't a mod warning you might have missed or ignored?
  • Get someone to ask for you in Ask The Tropers.
  • It happened without warning. I got a warning from Mad, but I told her I would follow it and I would never do what I did again. I think FE just banned me without looking at that.


     


    Is there any chance of me getting unbanned? I swear, I did NOTHING wrong. I was just browsing, hit a link, and bam, was redirected to google.

  • Noim, I'm banned COMPLETELY. I am redirected to google from any page on the wiki or forum.

    Again, get someone to ask in Ask The Tropers/Edit Banned. If it's a mistake, then it'll get lifted in due time, if it's not a mistake, then you can try to appeal it. Considering how many warnings you've gotten and that you've been tempbanned before, it might be hard, but it's not impossible.

    Noim, I'm banned COMPLETELY. I am redirected to google from any page on the wiki or forum.
    You're not banned from here, are you? I'd do it myself, but I'm currently leechblocked.
  • But I did nothing wrong at all.

    I'm gonna go to the library and and try to appeal it with an alt account.
  • Be as polite and humble as possible.

    Good luck!
  • What did you get a warning from Mad for doing?

    People on the forum are speculating that it's for the stuff in the Touhou thread.

    But it might be an IP thing.

    If not, and it's for the Touhou thread, the "warning from Mad" angle seems likely to get you back.

    And the result (courtesy of Fighteer):

    "Chagen has been a pain in the neck for a long time, continually derailing conversations, trolling for sympathy, and attracting a large hatedom. Now, apparently, Chagen decided to start posting NSFW pics in the Touhou thread. This has gone on long enough; Chagen was riding the edge of Fast Eddie's tolerance for a long time and went over the line."

  • If it's for the stuff in the Touhou thread, I apologized and told Mad I would never do it again. Also, Cassie had done far worse--he had linked explicit hentai three times, I linked one ecchi picture.

    But I'll do it when I can get on a compter that hasn't been banninated.
  • Actually, it's another one of those "last straw" bannings based on what I previously posted.
  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    Yeah, it's hard to be optimistic at this point...
  • Creature - Florida Dragon Turtle Human
    As Abyss_Worm noted, this sounds like a Last Straw Ban, so just changing one thing (posting NSFW pictures) isn't going to help much.  At the very least, changing that and sympathy-trolling would probably be a start.

    My opinion on your ban

    Mod edit: That was unnecessary.
  • Look, Cassie did it too. And tell the mods I am really sorry at this point. I didn' know it would get this far. I can't be banned, I just can't. I love TvTropes. There has to be a way. I'll never do it again...oh shit. Oh fuck. This can't be. Can't they just give me another tempban? I really didn't think it would get this far. I really didn't. Why must I be banned over this?! I lost my main source of social contact now....shit shit shit.
  • yea i make potions if ya know what i mean
    Ponicalica: Do me a favor and shut up.

    This is ridiculous, honestly. You can make a case that Chagen is this that or the other thing, but this is the first time he's broken any rules, as far as I know.
  • Kichigai birthday!!
    I can't believe you got banned before Stark did. I should have reported that post where he called you an asshole.

    Posting a NSFW pic without warning was pretty stupid of course, but Cassie did it too. Even after you guys told him to stop.

    I mad

    And don't let this affect you. You can still post here. It's not as nice as the Tv Tropes forum, but it's something
  • It's nice, but it's not TvTropes.

    Shit....I lost everything. I'm fucked. I might as well pop a bullet in my head.
  • yea i make potions if ya know what i mean
    No talking like that.

    This isn't worth dying over, certainly.
  • Chagen, please don't.

    Kichigai birthday!!
    Don't you ever dare to say something like that.
  • Thanks, guys. I really don't like the whole "last straw" thing, and I think that FE overrreacted, but I can't do anything
  • edited 2011-03-10 16:06:16
    OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    Yeah, I feel like as much as your presence tended to start shit sometimes (a lot of the time not your fault), you didn't do any actual rule-breaking that I can think of before that.
  • yea i make potions if ya know what i mean
    Listen, you're more than welcome here. I will make sure of that.

    I figure, if we give the issue time to cool off, we can appeal your ban again somewhere down the line. Okay?

    *hugs*

    Stay strong, alright?

    ^That's a good point. "He's had a lot of time to cool off" might be quite a good argument in a month or so.

    Oh, and for the record, Fighteer stopped by the Edit Banned thread and said that people needed to quit gravedancing.
  • My mom saw the picture.

    She thought that it was perfectly fine and was kinda amazed that they could do administrative action over something so minor.
  • Creature - Florida Dragon Turtle Human
    Ponicalica, let's discuss that in IRC.

    On topic:

    1. I don't like Chagen's hatedom at all.  It's like, every time Chagen was mentioned, people would roll their eyes and then start ridiculing him.  STFU already.  It was getting to DLC levels.

    2. That said, Chagen, your behavior never helped.  For example, complaining repeatedly that people were going after you because you held conservative views.  What people were actually doing was making fun of you because of this reaction from you.
  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    @Chagen:I don't know what it was, but I doubt it'd be so heavy if a)The Google Incident hadn't happened and b) you hadn't been involved in so many shitstorms in the past.

    @GMH:I'm agreed on both counts.
  • Did my attitude anger that man people? I knew I had a hatedom, but people liked me too...

    I know my actions didn't help, but I was already cooling off and becoming more mature anyway.
