Title: Stupid admins Post by: Brain on July 28, 2003, 07:48:38 am yea, i know i'm not supposed to be whining about being banned, but do you really think this link deserved a 30 min porn banhttp://www.boners.com/grub/790101.html (http://www.boners.com/grub/790101.html)
maybe the other shit on the site, but i didnt post a link to that Title: Re:Stupid admins Post by: *NADS Capt. Anarchy on July 28, 2003, 07:53:51 am Yes. Look at that word on the top... "porno."
....you're lucky to get away with 30. Title: They're not Stupid, compared to others... Post by: AK_Rap1d on July 28, 2003, 09:07:00 am Ban well deserved. ;) Lucky you weren't banned longer. :o Title: Re:Stupid admins Post by: Saberian 3000 on July 28, 2003, 01:29:51 pm Well I'm not sure it deserves a porn ban, unless i am missing something here hehe
Title: Re:Stupid admins Post by: Supernatural Pie on July 28, 2003, 03:09:16 pm "You may not transmit any offensive material to any area or user of GameRanger."
That's the quote out of the Terms and Conditions. Now, whether or not it qualifies as a porn ban is debatable, because the link was right on the page. I dunno. Could the image you linked be considered "offensive material"? Title: Re:Stupid admins Post by: Brain on July 28, 2003, 04:08:19 pm only to a hard core christian (or muslem i guess), because i'm christian and i sure as hell didn't mind (i'm assuming that there aren't many people who find the trees. white signs withred or black paint, or the phone pole to be ofennsive)
Title: Re:Stupid admins Post by: kos.viper on July 28, 2003, 04:26:47 pm There were a couple of people posting those links a couple days ago and no one seemed to care...
Title: Re:Stupid admins Post by: Mr.Mellow on July 28, 2003, 06:57:03 pm Well, they can't catch them all, unless they're Pok?man masters.
Title: Re:Stupid admins Post by: Cutter on July 28, 2003, 07:22:31 pm i was on last night and saw that ban. the admins were stoned. ppl were posting real porn off that site for 30 minutes and didn't get banned, brain posted only 1 link, the 1 you see above, which is not porn and he got banned. pure bs!
DWE! :-[ Title: Re:Stupid admins Post by: *DAMN Hazard on July 28, 2003, 10:06:56 pm Wtf, It takes me 45 minutes to get Crass to ban me. ;) Anyway... a lot of people have been posting porn links lately, it seems like the Admins haven't been cracking down on them like they used to. Its a conspiracy Brain.
Title: Re:Stupid admins Post by: Brain on July 29, 2003, 01:47:44 am yea, i know
evill hates me he always has and he always will wouldn't be too surprised if there was something in the admin guidelines that said 'if brain slips up, ban him' (but i would be sightly more miffed) Title: Re:Stupid admins Post by: Maniac on July 29, 2003, 02:27:19 am It's ok brian so people are bitter, nothing yu can do about that.
Title: Re:Stupid admins Post by: kami on July 31, 2003, 02:22:30 am I think you all got this wrong, the ban was probably based on the URL... it says 'boners' after all and it's a notorious porn/rotten page. Mistake or not, it's just 30 minutes.
Title: Re:Stupid admins Post by: Jackal.aHa! on July 31, 2003, 05:42:41 am I would have to agree with kami. If someone decides to click on the porno tab thats really not your fault. Maybe their just jealous..i mean that tree is large and robust....
Title: Re:Stupid admins Post by: S.p.i.d.e.r. on July 31, 2003, 06:01:44 am You were banned for posting a link that caters to people who were looking for that particular subject matter, and would be easily accessed by simply clicking a link on the page that was posted.
In a sad world of business, I think that would be refered to as covering your ass so that some idiot will not get offended, go rant about it somewhere else, and make gameranger look bad.

Title: Re:Stupid admins Post by: S.p.i.d.e.r. on August 02, 2003, 04:44:54 am Feh, Gameranger is not like here, adminsitrators can ban you just for any reason they can think of.
In general, don't be an idiot. Title: Re:Stupid admins Post by: Snipes on August 02, 2003, 04:55:19 am Heh, That's nothing Brain.. One time I got a 2 day ban for posting www.vagina.com (lol). I think I was hooked on caffine that day, was too hyper.. Couldn't help myself! :-X
Title: Re:Stupid admins Post by: Brain on August 02, 2003, 06:03:52 am i was referring to the go rant about it part
