Uhhhh... no... While I have been sucked before, that wasn't one of them.
I think I may have a new sig.
My brand new sig, written by Mr MarkG. (he didn't like the one about Ming being a goofy toofy.
"ok, fine.
from now on, i can refer to this thread whenever someone mentions acol as a place of freedom where you can post whatever you want and where noone is banned...."

My world has just collapsed, my unshakeable belief has been destroyed. I will never be able to trust you again Ming.
The best stings never get found out.
One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.

For the record, can you recall who it was?
because of the thread on ACOL claiming I'm an AE of RC.
I respect your honesty Ming, but doesn't this incident show that bannings of this type should wait until after the suspects have been given a right to reply/comment? It would prevent these incidents which rather show up the board's moderation policy.
===========================================
BTW - come back and post some more at you know where...
Actually, I think there's a little bit of appropriate kharma when a noted DLmonger gets one of his friends in trouble as well as himself. It's just "collateral damage". I don't blame the mods as much as the miscreant.
If you expect the mods to be perfect, you're still a little kid who wants to get mad at Daddy for giving a wrong punishment.
Stop trolling GP. Is that last comment directed at me?
Where did I say mods should be perfect? I suggest a way forward to avoid these accidental bannings and I get trolled. Sheesh..... grumble ... grumble ...
Is it just me, or does somebody find it odd that GP is so quick to defend the mods every...single...time?

Umm...ok, boss.
Actually it was more of a general shotgun blast troll. I don't really notice you that much. I'm referring more to the earlier MikeH episode. So disregard...unless you're an AE, yourself.

Are you accusing GP of being sycophantic?
Never.
Gasmaske was closer with the troll accusation. It's more the fun of messing with the Brat Pack (now that we have a new one) rather than any needs from the mods. Those beers that Ming and MTG bought me had no influence either...

Now be nice...or I'll stop putting your name in for plush server consulting contracts to Gamestats.
No offence, but from what I've seen from the performance on this server, working for the tech part of Gamestats would be like studying physics at a zoo.
And I don't do IT stuff for a living.

Well I am just glad all this has been clarified and sorted out. I think NMJ is a nice enough lad but just gets carried away a bit, I'm sure he will be a good boy from now on. If not, I wouldn't like to see the consequences.

I disagree...
First, we are right about 99% of the time. (yeah, mistakes happen)
Second, in many cases, if we don't shut them down fast, they keep causing trouble until we do shut them down.
Third, in those rare cases where we do make a mistake, we can correct it as better information comes to light. Again, we have NO PROBLEM admitting when we are wrong, and correcting our mistakes.
So, just because we make a mistake, doesn't mean we should change what has worked most of the time.
There seems to be a string of mistakes in a row here.
Mark L was banned for a sarcastic comment taken out of context.
This.
And red_jon was originally banned a week for implying somebody was gay, even though this is now "only" 3 days.
