Another Mysterious Banhammer

[BooG690]

Dranger7070 is now banned from the FTR forums without an explanation. Does the three strikes rule even exist anymore?

For lack of better words, he got IOPQ'd. Mods, any explanation?

[kiwiMark]

I demand that he be reinstated as an upstanding member of the forums immediately, and furthermore that he be awarded the post of chief treasurer of flopturnrivertwoplustwo incorporated to make up for this disgraceful oversight by the powers that be.

[kmind]

I'm not sure what "He got IOPQ'd" means. IOPQ deserved to get banned. I don't know dranger's story to get him banned but if he was like IOPQ then yes ban him. That said, I really doubt he was and would like to hear what happened because I liked him.

[spoonitnow]

Note to self: publicly discuss every person who ever gets banned from the forum.

[BooG690]

I propose an easy way to do this: open the Mods forum to the general FTR public.

[bikes]

that would be abso retarded

[BooG690]

that would be abso retarded

Right, it was an obvious joke.

[supa]

Right, it was an obvious joke.

Not really.

[BooG690]

Yeah, upon rereading it, I guess it wasn't so obvious.

I'd like to make it clear then...twas a joke.

[jyms]

Guys, there has been a lot of pm's sent, and you haven't seen or heard all of what was said. I am sure most of you have his AIM and will get his side of the story. FTR's admins are aware of the ban. Which admin's or mods do you not trust to make good decisions here? And do you think if one mod is out of line, the rest of the admins and mods won't straighten it out?

I have said it before and will repeat, FTR is not a democracy, it is a business, with a chain of command. Things move up the ladder before they are done. If something is done out of line, the team of mods and admins have discussions behind board and WE reach the decision. FTR's forum and one or two of it's members is not what FTR is about.

[kiwiMark]

A business?! Everyone knows the forum mods just steal the freeroll mannies and cancel the tournaments. dranger probably had proof of this and so was eliminated

[BankItDrew]

BuFu - you're doing it again...

[jyms]

Kiwimark thread now added to the mod forum for discussion. He's onto us.

FWIW, I do this for the FTR gear, not the mannies

[BennyLaRue]

What's the Benny thread like? Awkward? I bet it's awkward.

[Hawk]

wait, wtf happened?

[wufwugy]

wait, wtf happened?

.

[spoonitnow]

wait, wtf happened?

Nothing really.

[rong]

BuFu

I will never tire of this.

But yeah, wtf, the angry doc was entertining.

An explanation would be nice, even if its purpose is just to replace the lost entertainment with new entertainment.

[Muzzard]

wait, wtf happened?

.

[a500lbgorilla]

He's been banned for years. Paperwork just got through.

[swiggidy]

He's been banned for years. Paperwork just got through.

Just stop mailing the checks, it will work itself out

[supa]

Just stop mailing the checks, it will work itself out

but that's my stapler.

[Hoopy]

So are you actually going to give the reason why he was banned?

[jyms]

No, probably not if it has not been mentioned already. I am sure anyone who knows him from here and IRC have already asked him, if they weren't present during the issues at hand. Anyone who gave a shit about dranger had his AIM and has talked to him already.

[BennyLaRue]

Was it his anger?

[jyms]

No, it's casue he didn't pull out like he promised and spoon ain't on the pill anymore.

[kiwiMark]

uncannily accurate burns itt

[Keith]

No, it's casue he didn't pull out like he promised and spoon ain't on the pill anymore.

so Dranger is the father of chelles imaginary baby? no wonder he got banned

[surviva316]

so Dranger is the father of chelles imaginary baby? no wonder he got banned

wait...we can get banned for imaginary treatment of chelle and/or actual treatment of imaginary entities of chelle?!?!?!?!

/me goes through my computer and deletes all the evidence

oh sweet, where'd this extra gig of space come from?

[Carroters]

FTR is just cleaning out the crap imo, polishing the surfaces, Dustin out the corners.

[rpm]

impeccable puns as always.

[spoonitnow]

No, it's casue he didn't pull out like he promised and spoon ain't on the pill anymore.

i lol'd

[spoonitnow]

I guess I should give an explanation of what happened so people will calm down and stop operating under the assumption that I pulled a rilla and iopq'd dranger7070.

In some threads, dranger7070 was harassing and flaming. He was asked in PMs to stop harassing and flaming, as per the FTR rules. His reply was more harassing and flaming in PMs, followed by some more harassing and flaming in various threads.

I asked an admin for advice on the situation, and was given permission to ban.

And yes, the rumors are true. I do, in fact, got dranger7070's nose.

[BooG690]

Alright, I'm satisfied. Can we now turn this into the Dranger jokes thread?

Yea cuz the 6+ months of abuse/trolling that I put up with from you didn't have anything to do with my trolling/flaming. Seems standard.

I don't honestly care, keep me banned. I just like how spoon leaves out that little detail and thought I should fill in a pretty big gap in the story.

Have fun everybody, let the ***Official Dr. Anger Jokes/Puns Thread*** commence.

BooG

[surviva316]

^^ you know multi-accounting is grounds for getting banned

[dranger]

Apparently egotistical mods abusing their powers isn't.

[dranger]

Half-assed explanation for my ban in my blog.

[dranger]

Oh and holy shit Jyms actually is a colossal dbag. I never really had a problem with him until he made those lollerable posts.

Enjoy losing your ass at 50nl and living out of your friends basement you douche.

[Carroters]

So much hatred in americas, no wonder you all haz civil wars all the time imo.

[a500lbgorilla]

We have civil wars to stay sharp for world wars, softie!

[BooG690]

Dranger just made this thread worthwhile. THANKS DRANGER!

Now, if we find a way to get iopq to post in this thread, ZOMG!

[ehkay47]

you were an inspiration to me dranger.

big time lurker over here, gonna miss you.

[rong]

you were an inspiration to me dranger.

I think you've confused him with someone else.

Still sucks ass though, rip dranger

[spoonitnow]

I'm glad he went ahead and did that so now there's no doubt whatsoever as to the legitimacy of the ban.

[jyms]

I guess some people haven't figured out that we have the ability to ban for 1 day, 3 days all the way to 1 month as well as the perma ban.

[d0zer]

fucking lol at this thread

[kiwiMark]

bah new "dranger" obviously a plant by mods to make it look like the real one isn't an upstanding and tolerant citizen, full of patience with all mankind.

Confirmed.

Smoking gun*: IP Trace tells me posts were made via a Quebec-based IP.

*Important Note: Smoking gun not actually smoking. That would be drangerous.

[BooG690]

^ That's enough evidence for me.

Lynch Jyms

If he's not a wolf, instalynch Spoon.

[kiwiMark]

the join dates don't even match! the real dranger joined over a year ago! what an amateur mistake, ftr

[BennyLaRue]

lol, I read waaaaaayyyy too many Robert Ludlum* books for this kind of shit to work on me, FTR.

* - I read two.

[jyms]

Gotta love benny's ninja footnotes.

You caught me guys, it was all me. Even in IRC it was all me. Now that I'm outted, I'd reinstate him, but he just but blasted me in this thread too, so I banned that account instead. I feel better.

[ehkay47]

I think you've confused him with someone else.

nope, dranger definitely inspired me.

basically i smoke a lot of herb, and have been slowing down my poker play as late. guess he was sort of a motivator for me.

Spoon is too good at endgame to lynch and you know that so lynch boog


So, if I read the thread correctly drmcboy is now the only Doctor in the house? It that's so we must now be in Canada cuz it will take FOREVER to cure what ails me.

Jeez, you know it's bad when trolls got jokes.

[ehkay47]

[bjsaust]

I'm confused, did I have the ability to ban when I was a mod?

[Micro2Macro]

o noes

bettur not ban me

congrats. you well on your way to never becoming successful at anything.

[donkbee]

Mods got the ability to ban when the forum was upgraded.

[flomo]

sorry, i have to correct you courtie but he is in the southern hemisphere, so he had the ability to ban before the upgrade and not after.

[ehkay47]

congrats. you well on your way to never becoming successful at anything.

yeah I'm well aware of that. shit needs to change. although I do believe I can be successful at poker while still occasionally smoking, cutting it down is something that needs to happen if I want to make something out of this game.

keep up that real talk in your blog like someone else said. you're part of my new inspiration.

[spoonitnow]

Only if you were a mod after the switch to vBulletin.
