I am the voice of reason... It's why I keep my mouth shut
Posted by: Cannonman1944
I feel like the reason everyone was banned is because they didn't read the 343 rules and got banned. Sounds like a case of over reacting to me.
Rules are made to be broken. Especially unreasonable ones. Fortunately, Bungie always had reasonable rules.
Don't tell me you've never broken an unreasonable rule. I once had a bus driver try to tell me I couldn't have a water bottle on the bus - that was her rule, no food or drink on the bus. I contended that it was unreasonable to deny me hydration and took one on anyway, and she tried to give me throw me off. Fortunately, the other passengers had a massive go at her, and after a grumble, she told me to "sit the f*** down and shut the f*** up". I called the bus company on the ride and complained about her, and apparently she was disciplined.
Unfortunately, the forums don't even have an appeals process - not only that, but a suspension removes access to your inbox as well, so you don't get to find out why you were banned until you're unbanned. No explanation, just booted. It's nothing but a power trip - I understand the being a forum mod makes one a God of the forum, but it's the only time they get to be God and sometimes it gets to their heads. One day they'll wake up and realise that the only place in which they matter to anyone doesn't really matter to anyone.
And like I said - I intend to post some really obnoxious stuff in there so that I get permabanned, cuz I won't be back anyway, but it'll also make this ban worth it. Like I said, all I did was give a whiny player a little sarcasm. They're banning people for more than just what's in the rules - they're enforcing their own morality, which is absolutely pathetic.
