Google bans

Vorpy · 2011-03-20 23:47:15

Private Browsing can be used to get out of a Google redirect, and hell, an IP ban on 4chan (which isn't that hard).

To the best of my knowledge though, it only works once (due to only getting 1 pseudoIP from it) and if that gets banned, it won't work.

Why is it even called "porn mode"? Chrome's private mode is the only mode I use anymore.

In Private Browsing Mode, all the sites you go to won't be recorded in your browser's history. Do the math...

Bob · 2011-03-21 02:25:56

Rhetorical question, I get the implications.

Internet Explorer's In-Private mode did not work when I was using it. If I visited a certain site too many times, the URL showed up as a suggestion if I was in normal mode.

If Fast Eddie implements the PM for a thump idea, can he call "brick of awareness" just for me?

GLORIOUSLeader · 2011-04-22 10:45:04

^^ The Chrome one works, and AFAIK the Firefox one works, too.

OT: Why can't he just use the code for permabanning someone and use it to permaban the fora?

Vorpy · 2011-04-22 12:07:31

What does AFAIK mean?

As far as I know?

Elbeem · 2011-04-22 12:09:01

^ Yes (AFAIK).

I'd have to agree with Chagen on this one (surprise surprise). Also Did Tnophelia just invoke Tropers Law and Godwins Law at the same time?

Vorpy · 2011-04-22 12:24:25

Who's Tnophelia?

Tnu1138 · 2011-04-22 12:26:54

I think that would be you Vorpy. I was reffering toyour "Like wikipedia nad logically we should clone Hitler" post on the first page"

Vorpy · 2011-04-22 12:30:01

Well logically we should. Hitler accomplished more than Martin Luther King Jr. ever did when it came to Tv Tropes' forum drama.

If we had a modern day Hitler think of how much better the forum would get.

Tnu1138 · 2011-04-22 12:32:09

Uh..... Your Crazy Awesome you know that?

BaronGrackle · 2011-04-22 12:34:06

Of course Martin Luther King didn't accomplish very much. His son, on the other hand...

GLORIOUSLeader · 2011-04-22 12:34:23

We all know that.

BaronGrackle · 2011-04-22 12:45:48

Well, the capital of Assyria was (at different times) Ashur and Nineveh. Did you know that? Or were you thrown off the bridge?

Vorpy · 2011-04-22 12:50:12

I knew that the entire time.

Tnu1138 · 2011-04-22 12:51:39

~worships Vorpy~ don't mind me I'm bored as hell.

Hyperion09 · 2011-05-07 22:23:04

I originally posted this on the "Ye Olde IJBM the Second" forums before realising it was inactive, so I'll post it again here.

I don't know the details of the Starscream incident, but are you sure that criticism was the reason she was banned? She could be a bit abrasive, and rudeness is never OK anywhere on TV Tropes.

Abrasive and straightforward, yes. Deliberately rude, no, not unless someone has personally offended me. If the mods had a problem with my tone (especially considering the area of the forums I posted in), then don't you think I would've been kicked off earlier? And the ban clearly wasn't vandalism-related, since I simply don't do that kind of thing (I don't know whether my edit history is still there, but if it is, you can go verify my claim yourself). Evidently I must've inadvertently pressed someone's buttons, and I suspect I know why - catching on to the downward spiral of blatant power abuse site's administration fell into. The complaint about the constant layout changes must've been the trigger that caused someone to notice.

I have no intention of apologising for that and no intention to return, not while Fast Eddie and his band of sycophants are in charge. I'm quite amazed that I ended up staying for as long as I did, honestly; the signs of insanity started to show in mid-2010 (and also slightly amused that people remember me...)

(if my userpage over there isn't yet deleted, then feel free to do so and say it was a personal request from me.)

TuefelHundenIV · 2011-05-08 02:52:15

Oh of course you could have never done anything wrong by being rude and the mods and admins are evil crazy power mad loons out to get you. Kwar: Is one of the mods btw i wouldn't even call him close to being a sycophant. In fact he is most likely to be on our side of things in view.

Bullshit. I'd never claim anything of that sort. I actually kept my mouth shut for as long as possible until that point.

Gelzo · 2011-05-09 01:52:31

Hey guys, I got banned from TvTropes.

It isn't a Google ban, but I didn't see another thread for this, so there you are.

(Also it was just my Pedobear sockpuppet that got banned. Not my main account.)

Forzare · 2011-05-09 01:55:02

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

ninjaclown · 2011-05-09 01:55:17

Whoa really? WHY GOD

Forzare · 2011-05-09 01:56:38

What did you post with it that pissed off the mods more than any other time?

Gelzo · 2011-05-09 02:05:22

The last posts I made with it were in the My Little Pony thread. They weren't even all that offensive, especially compared to what the mods let me do before.

Gotta say I don't know why this happened at all.
