join the band! (not music) Questions about tsn, life, or anything else you would like Neo to answer. He's got the answers, but not necessarily the *right* one.

yo neo, ever banned anyone from the spot?
just out of curiosity, you know.

[Neo]

I don't know why you're asking it. If and when we do ban someone, we keep it under wraps...so that it's not a big deal. So I guess you'll never know if we have or not.

[Anonymous]

aw man... but i don't think you've ever banned anyone anyway... at least not since may 13, 2004

[baka sushi]

Hmmm....I don't think I would want to know, because then I'd wanna' know everything...it'd have the same affect that someone would get if they told you, "Guess what! Guess what!" and never told.

it seems you are just flaunting that you know something grey...even tho NEO stated he hadnt banned anyone, and if he had, wouldnt tell you...its okay grey, it doesnt matter...im just sayin it seems like you are tryin to say, hey, look what i know...and its highly irrelavent (sp)...anyhow...thats my two cents

[Anonymous]

no, i don't have any special knowledge of bannings, i just mention that date since that's the date i first came here and since then i haven't noticed any fights/spam /flame wars/nasty stuff immediately followed by a hiatus of those involved.
that's what i get for wondering i guess.

[Neo]

even tho NEO stated he hadnt banned anyone

I didn't state that. Read my post more carefully. I said I wouldn't say if I had or hadn't.

And the policy for banning is, that, in the very unlikely event that we let the person come back, they must not mention it to people on the site, make a big deal about it, or otherwise cause any kind of problem to disrupt the friendly nature and flow of the conversations in the website. So the rest of the members will never know if someone was banned or not, because we don't make it an issue that is talked about.

We don't need civil wars to break out over stupid issues.

We don't need civil wars to break out over stupid issues.

In my opinion, slavery was a stupid thing to fight over in the first place. But wasn't that what the whole civil was about? It's stupid. Civil wars havehappened for stupid reasons.

[Neo]

I was refering to the website

[baka sushi]

.......................I know.
I was simply saying, that people are always gonna' start fights over stupid stuff..hahah, it's inevitable. Geez, NEO...grow up! Haha, I'm joking, I'm joking!

[Anonymous]

not a bad policy. better than just putting a sign that says "BANNED" over their avatar in all their posts. some sites do that.

[Scyfris]

haha, when when/if i ever get my customizable title...its going to be Banned
anyways...it sounds like the policy is very thought-out...almost like it's been gone through before...hrmm.......TacoBell is good. Hey Neo, does the code allow you to ban people from just certain forums? Or even from certain threads? Just wonder from a coder's stand-point.
Neo Knows

[Drunkensailor]

I know on something awful the made you custon title a big, bold, red, capslocked BANNED!!

[baka sushi]

Heeey....you sly little..

How'd this post end up here? Well, anyway...I think at this other forum, they do that, too, DS...kinda' makes you feel stupid...yeah, tell everyone I'm an idiot that doesn't know how to read the rules...

[Anonymous]
