They ban themselves for fun :>

SPOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!

Doubtful.

Though they may seek out infractions in order to hammer themselves slightly frustrated. May, being the key word, because I doubt any of them would bother with bungie.net if they were having a bad day. They'd play games or do whatever it is they like doing to make their day better. I doubt they'd want to put moderating a website on top of an already frustrating day.

I have enjoyed banning a few people in my time, but not for any real sadistic reason. I was just usually happy they finally got what they had coming to them for blatant and multiple violations. It was a ban with some slight malice, but not because I was in a bad mood or anything.

I have thrown out some harsh bans when I was feeling overwhelmed during particularly bad spam attacks before. It gave me no pleasure. I just thought it was necessary to start the clean up process those jerks put on my table for no reason.

Since you cannot do good to all, you are to pay special attention to those who, by the accidents of time, or place, or circumstances, are brought into closer connection with you.

Banning is fun.

How is clicking a few buttons fun?

I doubt they would take out their frustrations on B.net. They probably just sleep it off or go hang out with some friends. That's what I would do.

Bnet provides an infinite supply of ban worthy infractions everyday. One needs only to look for them.

And the kind of idiots whose maturity level is low enough to things like that don't become Ninjas. (this is not without exception)

I know a few of them have banned themselves for fun. And then there was that that Stosh v. Tinman episode... that was pretty funny.

Only regret is I didn't play more of it.

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm sort of a jerk.

Qbix gets his kicks by giving out bans and warnings.

I am human, I am good and bad as well. But I try my hardest to stay good. And some of the things I do and say may be bad. Or just not too good, but I do try.

So with that said I don't fault you. I mean your only human, good or bad.

I imagine that banning someone who deserves it, is fun (usually). So maybe banning could be fun.

There are many powers in the world, for good or for evil. Some are greater than I am. Against some I have not yet been measured. But my time is coming.

Imagine you are a ninja (or if you actually are one, all the better). You come home from your real job, log on to Bungie.net. Only today, your boss chewed you out and your in a terrible mood and looking to blow off some steam so you decide to take it out on some poor innocent new member.

Despite their pleas to the contrary, you know that there are so many threads entitled "ZOMG I WAZ BANN3D 4 NO RAZON!" that nobody will listen.

Okay, so maybe this doesn't happen, but have Forum Ninjas ever just been mad and banned people for rather minor infractions?

So my fellow members, do you think either of these have happened before?

Yes. *stares angrily at TU*


Yes. I wouldn't say he was mad, that's just how he moderates. My most recent ban was from him because I posted in this topic that was pages long. He came to the conclusion in his infallible moderating mind that my one post in this entire thread (and when I say this thread was pages I mean PAGES) somehow lead directly to the derailment of the thread because I didn't respond directly to the OP and instead was a response to another post in the thread despite the fact that the thread was more or less derailed by the time I got there.

Also I found out he likes the Cowboys and I am from Philadelphia. *glares*

They count all the threads about ninjas on the front page of the community forum and then set a goal to ban that many people that day. It's a game. It's called Ninja-Ball. There are no balls involved. It's as confusing as the real meaning of HFCS.

Left here a long time ago.

yeah.avi

No group of people is ever perfectly efficient; there is always someone who screws up somehow. The Ninjas are a group of people. Therefore at least one of them screws up somehow. This seems like a plausible manner in which a person with moderation responsibilities might screw up.

Sort of common sense, I'd imagine. :\
