I've been getting threatening PMs -- on this site -- for the behaviour of the Asher login on WPC. When I view the posts Asher made there, they all look 100% legit and reasonable. If anything, other WPCers have bullied him.
OMG WePLay Civ really does have the worst moderaters ever
Ive been a long time lurker here and thought I'd try WePlay Civ, and so I registered as hello.jpg and made two posts http://www.weplayciv.com/forums/show...?t=2209&page=3 http://www.weplayciv.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2219 that are still there because they WERE NOT OFFENSIVE but they still banned me and didnt even give me a reason!!!At least apolyton doesnt ban people for no reason they give people the benifit of the doubt. WTF WePlay Civ

Yeah, the abuse that Asher got without any provocation whatsoever was appalling.

What the ****? I got a 3 month ban for what, exactly?
Someone from WPC come defend this.

None of my posts had been deleted (shocking, I know, given the admin's penchant for abuse of power at WPC). People can view all ~50 of my short posts here: http://www.weplayciv.com/forums/sear...searchid=67836
Witness how not a single one of them breaks any rule they have on their forums:

I'd just like to take this moment to tell VJ exactly why he's wrong. The people at WPC are not more mature, the people at WPC are not friendlier to newcomers. As soon as I started posting at the site, I was flamed without provocation. Eventually I was banned for three months by the moderators for completely innocuous postings.
Solver & Dale & Co continue to spread the lies that anyone there is welcome. Solver mentioned something about a clean slate for all posters. This makes it clear it is all a bunch of lies.
I was banned from WePlayCiv because a bunch of people there didn't like me. They made it known, and they got me banned. How can they honestly pretend to take a moral high-road compared to Apolyton when we don't ban people at Poly 'just cause we don't like them.
Clearly, Apolyton is the high road.

I refer to my earlier post in this thread.

You have been banned for the following reason:
No reason was specified.

I emailed them asking why I was banned. Of course they were too cowardly to respond.
They're probably busy fabricating a story as to why I was banned, so they can try to protect the illusion that they're a fair & balanced website with fair & balanced posters.

And thus the great WPC experiment comes to an end.

yeah yeah, nice baiting (5.5/10), but i'm not biting.Originally Posted by Asher
find other suckers as an audience for your everyday drama shows
Uh, what do you mean you're not biting?
Do you think they didn't actually ban me for the posts on the site there?
I'm not sure WTF you think is going on. I got a 3-month ban for innocuous posts. Simple as that.
It's not my everyday drama show. Solver or Dale decided to create drama by slapping me with a ridiculously long ban when I haven't even broken the rules. That's not my fault.

Nahhh, it's just the "OMFGIMSUCHAGAYDRAMAQUEENMYNAILSPLITLOOK!!ITHURTSIT HURTS!!!" stuff that, even though you're usually right, gets tedious.

The posts and the ban speak for themselves. It's not so much a drama queen moment as it is reinforcement of what most of us already know.
I hope it shuts VJ up in the future about how great WPC is.

If maniac posted something about Dolores it's gone now. That doesn't sound like his MO, though.

The entire post has been deleted (of Maniac's). It was immediately before my "WTF are you talking about?"
It was something to the effect of "I see it's okay at WePlayCiv to call Delores an aging prostitute." It was in reply to Felch's post where he was planning on building a $50M compound in the Philippines, powered by a nuclear reactor. He mentioned he'd marry an aging prostitute to get the permission to buy the land in the Philippines.
Maniac seemed to have assumed Felch was pretending to be Lancer, which is a bit of an absurd suggestion (unless Lancer has a $50M compound?)

That thread was pretty lighthearted. Considering they often post about fellating nazis over there, I'm surprised that they had such a problem with it.

It was there, and now it isn't. When Asher mentioned it here, I just had to take a look because it did seem weird... not that it was posted, but that it would still be there.
Keep on Civin'

I'm pretty sure maniac was responding to a pretty transparent troll.

I got perma banned today because I started a thread over at CG which asked who the Asher DL was. That's it. Nothing else. Just asked who the Asher DL was.You have been banned for the following reason:

They seem to be under the impression that my posting there was some operation issued by "CG High Command". The fact that you've been posting there on and off for months apparently didn't throw them either.
They're pretty delusional...

This "controversy" actually lured me there too and I want to troll about Pandas but I've been given a warning about panda trolling so I have to play nice a bit before I return to the game.

How about getting perma banned for starting a thread at another site asking who the Asher DL is? Jesus, those people are not going to have a successful forum if they perma ban people for something as innocent as that.

You proclaimed that you troll there, and are just waiting for another chance to do it again.
What is their rule for trolling?
