will need to get used to it but its for the best
No more reading "My account is banned for cheating/trading anyone know the iRC?!"
Thank you.
Btw, why is Stellar disabled? He seemed a good guy to me.
yeah, i'd be curious to know why he got disabled.
Because he gave the OP in the PSone thread an invite and posted his email.
or at least, thats what i presume its for
Yep, confirmed by the staff.Quote:

He got temp disabled for trying to give an invite to a new member, which so obviously broke the rules in public. It was a little harsh so it's gone now.
Yeah? Well why don't you report them then. I disable as many of them as get reported with proof. If you're not a trader I wouldn't even know how you can make the assumption that there are tons of scammers right now.Quote:

Hey, I've got nothing against Stellar, ffs I've even invited him places. He got the standard infraction for what he did and now it's been reversed cause it was a little harsh. Didn't think he needed a warning originally because he had another active infraction. Hope that explanation satiated you. Now don't be a troll, piss off eh?
I just replied to your question(s) without sucking up. If that's 'trolling', it's fine with me.
I did notice however that you removed the 'ban'. Kudos for that.
Wouldn't it be grand if I nailed you on rule 14? I'm not as much of an asshole as you think I am and don't like suck ups either. Guess I'm just misinterpreting your vagueness and naivety in "she got disabled for being nice" with trolling. :dabs:
Anyways this has gone way off-topic.
Do as you wish, it's your choice.
Just for the record though, I never said that you are an "asshole", nor did I imply anything like that, I don't even know you! And I don't even know who banned Stellar in first place. I just strongly disagreed with the decision, and refused to suck up, that's all.
I agree however that this is going way off topic.
Whats the porblem T.S.O.L is only up holding the rules, but even he thought it may have been a bit harsh and reversed his dicision so whats wrong.
That's a nice addition, it will keep the BT section cleaner. I just hope people will think of visiting the sub-forum to help others.
I was actually kinda thrilled that I'd have more time on my hands for the next couple of days. :lol:
Anyway, I can't wait to see more topics in the support forum (yeah weird I know). It's young so there's not much to contribute at the moment, but I'm sure some clueless people will come stumbling in soon. I put a link to the support forum in my sig to bring attention to it. ;)
Ya I hope this one will catch on :lol:. I'll be leaving redirects if users post their problems in the BT forum to hopefully get people who skip over this thread to realize we have a new section for help.Quote:

Yes, but policemen are dicks. No need for dicks on the internet. Shouldn't we get a reprieve somewhere for crying out loud?Quote:

Sorry to butt in, but can we all just get along? Come on folks... hug it out. :wub:
I'd like to talk about the pressing issues that face the BT support forum.
Why do you equate having a simple discussion with not getting along?
No wonder you were disabled.:rolleyes:
Well in the previous pages there appeared to be an argument. Or maybe it was a friendly conversation? :P
The hugs thing was in jest, obviously. I'd rather have all of you spilling gore.
Just for the record: I only didn't reply to your post IdolEyes787 because there have been enough off topic posts in this thread already, as mentioned earlier.
This said, I didn't see this little discussion as "not getting along" either, even if I have been accused of trolling, for whatever reason. I disagreed with a decision and expressed my view on it. So to sum it up: I'm cool. You cool? We cool.
I hate them then, too. Blanket statements make you look stupid.Quote:

Fantastic idea, a really useful section :)
Maybe someone could gather trackers irc channels in sticky topic ;)
Ya we've got one of those already. The only reason I haven't copied it over into there is that I haven't done the work of compiling it and it hasn't been censored at all or anything. I guess it would be good to have it'll be in there soon.Quote:
