President of ATOT **WINNER: Rubycon**

404 sense not found?

I am so epic 404's resolve.

He is? Where did he go? <insert detective pic>

Perma banned. Part of a plan to change the culture of the forum, is what I'm told. Speaking purely from a change-management perspective there will always be old-timers that don't want to change. One way to induce the change is by lining up a few 'untouchables' up against the wall and putting a bullet right between their eyes. I teach students to re-story the narrative instead; But while you may be able to argue methods you can't argue effectiveness. The goal, as I understand it, is to avoid letting this place become a shitty knock-off of 4-chan.

Here is a list of some of the dead, there's a fairly clear pattern, though (as hamburger boy points out) not all are related to the change-management activities:

RIP

Whether it was necessary or not to ban them (note to mods: not questioning the decision(s), don't ban me), I like all the users on the list, except the few I don't recognize. Even Nik, though he was abrasive most of the time.

Some of those bans came from an entirely different "era", and the Change of Culture (or anything like it) has little to do with a lot of those.

 

[brianmanahan]

tristicus was like my bff

also dividebyzero was high on my list of awesome pepole

 

[Joseph F]

Well, there's a place you can go where you can talk to all of those people. :whiste:

 

[mafia]

Dividebyzero was awesome, he provided good blackberry support

Only a retarded tech forum administration would ban someone as knowledgeable as him.

The change of culture thing was years ago, even when the mods were still unknown, almost all of those perma-bans are recent (past 12 months)

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Weren't mosh's and a few others six months + apology like theflyingpig's? LoKe was banned long before those, shinerburke had already been temporarily permabanned once prior, and there is a lot of suicide-by-mod in there.

Mosh's was, I'm not sure about any of the others. Suicide-by-mod is pretty popular with that crowd, a couple of them came back to do it a second time.

wow bro, most of those idiots got banned because they are dumbfucks.


I'd think you would know that being a soon to be PhD making $150k after living on welfare.

 

[alkemyst]

tristicus was like my bff

also dividebyzero was high on my list of awesome pepole

tristicus decided to fuck with me when I was about 30mins from his house on travel.

dude is a plump fuck, his jeep and cars are owned by his mother.

 

[SSSnail]

no one that has ever been to band camp would ever be king.

Must be pulling that out of your repressed memory, I've never been to band camp. A few shady karaoke places though, do those count? :awe:

It's alright though, you're the permanent jester in my court. Now dance for me monkey.

Why yes, I will be your friend. We can be 5%ers together.

QFT. They were all almost over the same event. A couple people were foolish and wandered into a forum area they weren't supposed to. Instead of keeping quiet they spread the details.

Then when vacations were handed out a few decided they could make or break the entire forum...they were sent on their way too.

It was really petty and childish. At the end of the day, there are no personalities here that the forums couldn't survive without.

if there is a president, then we must appoint a supreme court and congress.

Tell the whole story. You went over there to fight him and his mom kicked your ass.

I don't think being a dumb fuck is a reason for bannings. If it was, you surely would have been the first one sent packing.

lol really? awesome

i always knew alky was a poser
