Here's where you can rip on each other. We don't care. If any personal information gets posted about another user, we'll delete it and you'll be banned. No exceptions.
... now we have this new intensely stupid yet-can't-STFU version of michelish shitting up the board with nonsense and consistently emptyheaded crap. Apparently the "new topic" button is like a buffet in front of an obese person in his/her case.
Also didn't know Grendel was banned. He's one of my favourites. What did he do? Was it the comment on Glammer's thread where he said he didn't care and then followed it up with saying the name that shall not be said?

Yep, he called $tevil's new policy stupid, gave him the proverbial middle finger, and proceeded to say the name anyway.

Shit! I saw that and didn't think anything would become of it.

Well, he got banned for it, unfortunately. Apparently something serious is going on between $tevil and name who shall not be said, be it legal threats or just a plain ol' feud that's got the CEO hopping mad, and we just have to accept it and move on or risk receiving the banhammer. I'll choose the former, thank you.

Awesome trade-off huh?
This town needs an enema.
I always appreciated the way you construct your words. Grendel did ask for the ban hammer although I do get where you are coming from.
I wonder how many people in total got the ban hammer over the topic that got Grendel banned? I know Wolfie did as well but I wonder if there were more. According to hungwell, wolfie is still around under another name.

Same here. I'm happy to be here. I'll do whatever is asked of me.
Honestly, I don't think I've ever mentioned their name here more than a half dozen times, if that. I think I can go without mentioning them from now on.
Nah, I’m around. I just had eye surgery, so I can’t see well and am super light sensitive. Tiny print on bright screens are a double whammy. But Grendel being banned is a major bummer. His boom/movie titles were epic. Sorry to see him go. Wolfgang, not so much.

Sorry to see Grendel go. After a break maybe he will come back. Then again, I can't believe any of us are here 18 to 20 fucking years after we first showed up.
Shit, kids under 25 don't even know wtf a message board even is.
All this comes to an end at some point anyway.
The whole suicide by mod thing is odd to me. If you care so little about posting somewhere that you really don't care if you get banned, why not just stop posting altogether? Or, if you're so enraged by a rule that you think is stupid that you MUST thwart it, again, why not just stop posting?

That's a great question.
I've always leaned towards the belief that they don't believe they could stop responding under that nym were it available to them so killing it off is the only way to vacate. At least for the mental pussyfarts like wolfgang and D-13.
It also allows for them to continue under a seldom used alt where they don't have to endure a tard avatar or a title like 'Cunty Dipshit'.
But yeah, e-immolation has always been a strange thing to me as well.

Same here. Very clever guy. I understand his reaction to censorship, but I wish he would have hung around. The situation turned out to be pretty funny.
As long as I'm learning something, I figure I'm OK - it's a decent day.

He was. He had a lot of funny ideas and many times I'd make a photoshop or video for him to go with his comments.

And now it looks like Jodi might be gone.
Yeah, she is unfortunately. From what I can gather, $tevil came to his new ruling out of legit fear after some serious threats from they who shall not be named (possibly involving legal action, which Son Of Sam I Am pointed out the possible grounds for in the thread) were made, so if this is the case then I can sadly understand why he's doing this. Either way, I'll just go along and agree and keep any further discussion of this to a minimum while hoping no one else gets banned because of this.

There is getting banned and there is pulling the trigger on yourself.
This was a Tienemen Sludge deal that made about as much sense as laying down in front of a Pyongyang Military parade.
I also can't even fathom how anyone even cared about not being able to talk about an act that few give any shits about to begin with. And the person who has given us this place to bullshit at for free for 20 years was more polite about it than many of us would have been.
Of all things to get e-pissed off about, that would seem to be very low on Sludges 'Who gives a shit' totem pole.
Agreed. I've mentioned "the band" less than a half dozen times in my 6 years here (and I probably shouldn't admit this but I liked them back in the day). I can go another 20 without mentioning them.

Same here. I like their debut album and the first single's music video for the cheesy guilty fun that that they are, but that's about it. I can go along with the new rule easily.
