Subject: Have the Ninjas ever been banned before they were moderators?

I think signatures are stupid....Oh wait...

I was wondering if any of the current moderators have ever been banned.

"I will show you how a true Prussian officer fights!"

"And i will show you where the iron crosses grow..."

- "Cross of Iron"

Of course! Them being banned just increases there skills as ninjas they have learned from there mistakes...BEWARE!

Obviously. Even if they just have a warn they have participated in some form of rule breaking.

It's likely. Remember, at one point they were humans too, and humans make mistakes!

I remember most of the newer mods turning, but I don't recall any of them being banned anywhere close to the time before acquiring their ninjaness.

Old school Bungie, born and raised,
In the Septagon is where I spend most of my days.
Relaxin', maxin', posting all cool,
Talking about Halo, life and some school.
Got in one little argument, and the mods got scared,
they said "You're gonna get banned and your member title'll be bare!"

I recall there being a joke some long time ago going around about one or a few of the moderators being banned. Can't recall who or under what conditions.

I remember Urk being banned before becoming an employee. That was pretty funny.

There was a lot of drama surrounding him and complaints of the Halo 3 Beta Friends & Family fiasco.

That situation went through a Wildcat destabilization quicker than you can say "Can you stick it?"

Anyone but Foman. He smells like cheese.

My last ban was from the guy who hacked Pezza's account, and that occurred almost 8 months before I became a Forum Ninja, before your account even existed. I think you're misremembering something...

Anyway, before that, I did receive a couple of warnings and a ban for various bad activities. Warnings/bans certainly do not prevent you from becoming a moderator, especially if you can demonstrate that you've learned from your mistakes.

What are we supposed to be discussing here?


"Nothing in the 'Verse can stop me."

Oh god, some of them many times. Hell, some of them were banned while being mods. No one is perfect.

"I don't care if it's God's own anti-Son of a -blam!- Machine or a giant hula-hoop!"

Actually, I don't know a Moderator who hasn't been banned before. I'm sure there are a few, but no names come to mind.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

EEVERYONE gets banned some time or another for something on Bungie.net.

I you don't get banned, you are either VERY lucky or very inactive.

Guess I'm VERY lucky.

I'm sure there are a few moderators with a sizable ban history.

I have yet to be banned. :/

Anyways, I think almost all of the mods have been banned at one point or another before they became ninjas. I know one in particular who's had something like 8 of them I think. Don't quote me on this, because I don't remember 100%, but he had a decent number of bans under his belt.

I went 6 years without a ban, including some time as a moderator in between.

It's very easy to avoid being banned...

Quite a few of them were.

  • 08.17.2011 9:16 AM PDT

I'm sure a few of them have been banned before they were given moderator abilities. I just don't know any specific names.
