I got banned.

...from gamefaqs.

Lately I was getting tired from all the trolls there, so I decided to add some flame, so I can kick myself out of there. Apparently, I fullfilled my objective.

Now, I will be able to stop wasting my time.

I've never liked the forums at gamefaqs. all people do there is flame others. GTP is so much better anyway.

 

[CDailey]

Exactly. They tell a n00b to use the search, but you have to be a level 30 member or higher to use the search.

I was almost banned from Gamefaqs once. I think if was for calling something gay But I was 12 or 13 so it's understandable.

Whereas with GTP I've already been banned before .

But not again!

 

[GentlemanDriver]

I've been banned too but @ granturismo.de they sad I spammed too much...

GTPlanet rulez, cuz it's more interesting for car freaks.

 

[ShobThaBob]

I dont think I have ever been banned from any message board. I almost got banned a couple times at 3.8mustang.com for posting MrGoatseman...same here probably, but Im generally not a bad member.

It's all about psychology guys.

Ingroup/Outgroup Bias.

 

[ShobThaBob]

Yeah, that is very true. Its hard to break the ice some places.

Postwhoring?! W0t you mean! I not postwhoring!

 

[Famine]

You've made 175 posts today alone.

Let's savour that one.

ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY FIVE posts. In ONE DAY (so far)...

 

[ShobThaBob]

Well, I've been here well over a year, and I felt that it was time for me to actually start getting involved in the community. I try to make my responses more than just incoherent babble that has nothing to do with the post that Im responding to...so yeah. I am a productive member of the community

 

[daan]

I must commend you on that. When I saw the number of posts, I thought they'd just be "Yes", "No", and assorted smilies, but they are actually useful posts!!

Well done!

 

[ShobThaBob]

Well, over at 3.8, we have a member that does posts like that, and he averages 500 posts a week, so I decided that if Im going to post that much, I better make them worthwhile, otherwise, Im likely to get banned, and I dont want that.

Manic?

 

[ShobThaBob]

Manic? What do you mean by manic? I just dont have a very good sleeping schedule, hence the reason Ive been posting since like...3am

What? Sorry, I don't understand that

 

[ShobThaBob]

Yeah, wtf?

 

[GentlemanDriver]

Didi is the admin there, I just wondered what et al means...

 

[ShobThaBob]

Oh ok. What is all that karma stuff that they have on the boards? And how do you gain 'ranks' as a member?

 

[Famine]

"Et al." is Latin - it's a contraction of et alia and it means "And others", but can be taken to mean "And other people".

It's most common usage is in references - when referring to a book/paper/article you name the first two authors and then put et al to signify that there are other authors.

 

[ShobThaBob]

0o0o0o0 Famine = infinite wizdom.

 

[Pupik]

Hey, it's not not post-whoring if it's actually contributing to the thread.

 

[ShobThaBob]

I suppose, but then again, I have made quite a few posts today, and it doesnt seem to be letting down. Any way for me to check how many so far?
