I'm sorry! He's dealing with a new credit card fraud detection thingy right now because of that dipshit who keeps re-regging and crapping up GBS with like 35 garbage posts an hour, he should have the bugs worked out by tonight. Throw him a DM and maybe he can help you out!

I'm guessing this guy because he was permabanned with the reason "gently caress off with your credit card fraud." I've been wrong before, though...

No, well I mean there might be a plot twist or something but that's not the one re-regging 50 times a day and being a schizo in threads. DARE is that guy. Or at least the one I've seen, who knows if we've had another person throw a tantrum.
Tactical Urban Homo was a long term poster who got into lots of slap fights and got constant new titles/AVs from folks who hated him.
He was permabanned for fighting a war of :10bux: and pointing out he'd always win since he as chargebacking all of his purchases.

Serious question for zdr: Can you make it so that you don't lose account upgrades if you get banned? Or is this not a technical issue and it's intentionally to make bans worse? I wouldn't mind the rereg fee, but I don't want to buy archives/plat if they just go away.

archives actually persists through bans expressly because of some strange radium-related technical issue, as it turns out

the issue is probably fixed by now but I think archives has been left to work how it does because of precedent

I think its very much intentional.

Losing av and plat makes you a bit more careful about things. If i could just pay $10 and get everything back id be tempted to post more obscenely.


Also 10 dollars in 2001 terms could buy a speedboat. Inflation has made a ban hardly a punishment at all.

Yeah but my wages for the last decade have all been in platinum so they haven't kept up with inflation at all.

The commit logs for semi popular goon game space station 13 are loving hysterical, they alternate between gouts of barely coherent profanity and outright suicide notes. One of them was just the word gently caress, in all caps, 157 times. So yeah I'm guessing the commit logs for the forums are a treasure.

But should those who buy platinum get punished more for breaking the forum rules than some random idiot? I think not.

Hey ZDR can you make it so that when somebody makes a bad post a little gif of lowtax shaking his head pops up on screen and maybe going "shhhhhhh" like a librarian? Still brainstorming on this one open to suggs.

Can the little Lowtax head pop out and yell "Toasty!" any time there's a really sick burn?

When two people are fighting in a thread, can Mortal Kombat pop up and they are forced to fight it out and whoever loses dies in real life(if it ends in a fatality)?
