Why did they ban GoldenBear and GoldenGuppy?

[Martin]

I liked those guys. One was a hyper nef with an over inflated ego and the other was the meanest, funniest S.o.B. around



I saw this link in gopunk's sig.....


We cannot disclose the reason for banning any member. If we choose to disclose 1 banning, then we would have to explain all bannings. We are not about to do this. This matter is not up for discussion.

banning is running rampant from what i have seen, lately... what gives?

what happened that they got banned?

 

[kikokam]

a week of vacation, is that it? or something more than that?

I'll be damned if I'd sign a petition without knowing both sides of the story. Hell, in this case it would be nice to just hear one side! But personally, I HATE hyper neffing with NO exceptions. If it had something to do with that, then hanging's too good for 'em! :frown:

I agree. I may have many posts in less than a year, but i usually post more meaningfully than just to say hi.

 

[mztykal]

I signed. I don't know why, but I signed.

Even though I know people have their own opinions/reasons.. I struggle to find out why people actually care what other people post.. it's like you have to read each post in the forum or something... I just don't know.. I don't care.. why do others?

it's a free country (for the time being) so lets not snap on other ppl for posting something.

 

[DannyLove]

who knows. but for some reason, i'm enjoying my stay better when they're not here. too many random posts and neffing involved. =)

danny~!

The apparent un-doing of GoldenBear...

GoldenBear's final message posted via GoldenGuppy

As for what happened to GoldenGuppy, I can't find any info...

 

[EXman]

I cannot believe you have to ask about GB.

comes down to $ though too much bandwidth for their nef fests I would guess.

 

[CraigRT]

Ridiculous... I didn't read it all but from what I saw it looked pretty innocent.. at least it wasn't in the highly technical forum...

they've been gone for much longer than a week.

pr0hawk is the one who set up the petition btw, props to him.

if you're going to say that neffers should be banned, there are a LOT more people that should be banned before goldenguppy and goldenbear.

You are all dumb idiotic morons. I can't even believe how people could be so retarded and post such idiotic questions. Your parents should be slapped silly for bringing such stupid idiots into this world. Wanna go play some Scrabble?

example of why Golden bear was banned.

 

[drewshin]

hmmm goldenbear, goldenguppy? sounds like berkeley people.

me thinks the mod is some dude from stanford who doesnt like the fact that he paid all that tuition so he could wear a red bird on his t-shirt. heh heh.

actually i see no less neffing now that they are gone. if you actually read their posts, most of them were insightful and interesting. of course goldenbear did have the random comments that pissed people off (for what reason, i have no idea).

personally, i think they should be unbanned. they didn't do any real harm right? i think i know both sides of the story, and yes they should have been banned but not a permanent one.

yea, have you guys forgotten all the philosophical posts goldenguppy made? i have yet to see any posts as insightful and thought provoking since his banning.

 

Don't really know, don't really care.
No offence to anyone.

[mithrandir2001]
