pcock Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 beneboi was the only justified banning in my opinion, telling someone your mate is an idiot for getting hit from behind by a rolling van on the pavement and dying is utterly despicable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Blanket Fort Collapse Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 its the fucking internet..... I don't know how someone could post that a friend they said they had not been close to died that way and not expect a comment like that from the fucking internet it doesn't say in the rules that you will be banned for being insensitive, it wasn't trolling, he was just being honest. If I died like that I would lol @ people calling me an idiot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Blanket Fort Collapse Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 lol and again this wasn't his wife, they did say it was someone they had not been closed to for a while amirite? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubba69 Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 does buying a membership to EKT go towards this? In fact, I'll buy one right now. EDIT: yay! don't know why I never did that before, I guess I forgot about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I died like that I would lol @ people calling me an idiot who cares if its the the fucking internet the reason i come to this place is because its not four chan, and therefore generally not filled with angsty, bitter, horrible bottom feeding teenagers whos only repose for having an awful life is to try and rile up other people in a format where they wont imnmediately get the shite beat out of them like they do in school. troll all you like, be mean to people if you want, but shit like that crosses a reasonably obvious line, and if you cant see that line, your a scumbag and i dont want to know you.

pcock Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 also. it pains me to come back to this, but how does it even fucking remotely make the guy an idiot? a van with its engine would be silent, do you constantly check behind you as you walk along to check for random large metal objects rolling silently towards you? complete and utter cunt of a thing to say. i actually quite enjoyed beneboi on the forum but that single comment ensured that i never want to speak to him again under any circumstance. got no patience for genuinely unpleasant human beings, if its a joke you can be as nasty as you want if your audience is right (i often am, as long as its clear it is in good fun), but that? sickening. dont take the piss out of peoples dead friends. simply common decency. engine off# Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Blanket Fort Collapse Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 I am undeniably an extremely nice guy and definitely don't think that was ban worthy at all. Again he said it was someone they had not been closed to for a while on 4 chan they would say fucking horrible shit even if that was your grandma who you had been taking care of for years. I know bene wouldn't have said that if he said it was someone actually close to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joyrex Posted May 4, 2010 Author Share Posted May 4, 2010 I agree with most things you have said but one tasteless comment does not make someone genuinely unpleasant human being lol, this I can guarantee What a lot of people forget or fail to realize is, it's not just one event that 99% of the people get banned over - it's a long chain of events/circumstances that lead up to being banned. I really take banning people seriously, and in most cases don't do it with any sort of haste (42Orange was an exception), so to say Beneboi was banned over "one" thing is simply not true.

Deepex Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 But Lion! Was Lion not banned for the actions of Theo!? Lion brought nothing but original and frequent lols. FREE DA LION Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chassis Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 I have no idea why everyone loves Lion so much. But I find the Idea of permanent bans a bit over the top, especially if it creates such a rift between members and admins. But, admins decision Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcock Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 why dont we try a nice civilised idea of a vote? a vote between, should bans be permenant, or should they last 1-2 years, depending on admin discretion. is that not fair enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest hahathhat Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 why was lion banned? the drama over the first three pages was a good read, then it trickled off to a snooze. except... its the fucking internet..... I don't know how someone could post that a friend they said they had not been close to died that way and not expect a comment like that from the fucking internet it doesn't say in the rules that you will be banned for being insensitive, it wasn't trolling, he was just being honest. If I died like that I would lol @ people calling me an idiot this is actually something i've pondered. my parents will say like "such and such relative is in the hospital" and it's someone i haven't seen or spoken with since i was 8. and i am expected to care, perhaps go visit them in the hospital which is extremely awkward and depressing. am i a bad person for saying, "nah, i'd rather stay home and play xbox?" a week ago they weren't dying, and i was not expected to care. this week, they are and i am. caring is not a fucking lightswitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A relative is dying, so you may not get another chance to see them, its not something you're expected to want to do. What kind of sick fuck enjoys visiting people who are dying?! Its about respect.
