On December 1st, 2012, I met Neil deGrasse Tyson. I shook the man's hand, and even made him laugh. Not much else to do with my life now.

Wait, two stories. What did he get banned for?

No, he just knows how to make a point.
By banning himself?

It's the same as a guy shooting himself to show he's boss.

At least he has a week-long break from moderation. Lucky him.

No it's not. It's like if there was a mandatory jail time for pickpocketing, enforced by police, and a police officer is caught doing it. Mandatory jail time.

Case and point: don't worry about it. Girls start getting boobies pretty soon, and then you'll have plenty of other things to think about. Being an Inheritor is not a life goal.

Oh for the love of.....that's stupid. He used it in a mature and informative manner. There's no reason for him to ban himself just because a bunch pipe up the ass 10 year olds want to see a ninja ousted.

It's only fair, and it shows the users that no one is above the rules.

Lol, That is halarious!

Feel free to send me messages, please be willing to wait 6-8 years for a reply.

1-7 hours if you at least tried to make it readable.

Immediately if you are Yax, Telec, or legendary.

Never if you are mythic, you guys smell funny.

He could have just put "adult themed movies" in place of the word he bypassed,to be fair.

What did he DO?

  • 09.06.2011 1:13 PM PDT

I like shorts. They're comfy and easy to wear.

For this?


That wasn't actually him. You can tell because when you quote the OP, it shows that the "edit" was manually written. Real edits don't actually count as part of the post.

*Gasp!*

Recon is trying to tell us something!

Or it shows that the rule in question is really -blam!- stupid.

It wasn't even a real edit. Its out of the question.

I think I respect Recon a lot more now. If I must say, this is something that will be marked in Bungie.net forum history.

Recon should have banned himself for 3 days though. I don't think anyone deserves a whole 7 day ban for just bypassing one word in the filter.

He could always appeal the ban.

Check Rokit's link on first page.

Already did, and seeing numerous posts in this same topic in private groups.

LOL, he can still moderate. He proved nothing other than the fact that the Community has a lot of whiners in it.

It doesn't matter; he can still moderate. Ninjas don't post that much anyway.

Did that ever, or does that even, require proof?

Yeah. That should be reserved for more serious offenses, like Futurama discussion and dead baby jokes.

Filter evasion should not be a bannable offense unless it is abused. If it has context to the OP it should be permitted.

Ex.

Punishable:
"You're a [word] OP!"

Permitted:
"While I agree that [word] should be banned in public...."
