Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
More like "Necroing 3 threads to prove a point".
I even responded to one of your comments with this.
Ciao CG, pop into IRC every now and then.
@Kiranio: I'm glad you enjoyed it. Seriously. It started out with me responding to his posts with rebuttals, but eventually turned into me just making up stuff in the quotes.
I'm flabbergasted that you are so oblivious that you would think it was because of what you mentioned. Why wouldn't I have deleted that posts? Why wouldn't I have banned you immediatly right after? Why would I have gotten into skype with you and joked around that night?
Stirring up baseless pointless drama on the cblogs is just going to get you banhammered here as well. I'm sure you will make some some reason why Hamza hates you when it happens too.
Maybe others will disagree with me, but can this please be changed? Totally deleting the entire history of a person's contributions is overkill.
Forum posts don't get deleted on a ban.
See ya, CG.
Hm, I'd probably know that if I spent more time in the forums. >_> My complaint stands for front-page/cblog comments and cblog user pages (http://www.destructoid.com/blogs/USER, not a specific post they made), though.
Call me defensive of my friend, call me argumentative, call me a cunt or whatever but this is just the latest in a long line of poor decisions. Techno, you are a fucking nerd on a power trip. I'm done.
That being said, there are lots of people here who I really like. There are a few of them I like so much that I get up at 3am to play video games with sometimes. Josh is one of those. The kid is pure gold and totally harmless.
I'm not suggesting anyone should be immune to being banned for acting like a cock but he was warned, and subsequently banned for pretty minor but harmless horseplay because he made some comment about certain fucked up sexual arrangements.
I really fucking hate to go down this road again but I used to come here for light relief while I was at work. I came for the luls and stayed for the great people, now the luls must adhere to an interpretable set of rules enforced at the disgression and whim of a idiot with an inferiority complex and the great people are being banned and driven off.
Yours Sincerely

You liked him, so you had a bias in his favor. You can't judge unless you are completely neutral, as you will not have much of an opinion either way. I don't know CG well enough to like or dislike him. He was trolling, no two ways about it.
Also, it's more my fault he's gone than Techno's. Techno was just doing his job. I mean, I could have just ignored him and he probably would have lost interest. Unfortunately, I decided to respond to him, thus making him respond, and it kept repeating. Eventually, he decided to necro around 5 threads. It just kept escalating, and I could have prevented it. I don't feel guilty in the least, but I thought you should know.
If you want to blame someone, then blame me. Don't take it out on Techno.
