View Full Version : Probably on the "Banned" Wagon...

Just made my most recent post at AO...
I have been an AO member for sometime now, and I recently signed up for PBLegion.com. When I signed up at PBL, I was asked if someone there had referred me. It was the knowledge that RogueFactor had been banned that made me curious enough to cross the street, but in all honesty the ones who referred me were the AO Mod team by their less than mature actions.
How can they ban Rogue? AGD is not DYE or Smart Parts... it's not like they have tons of aftermarket companies just waiting to produce the next upgrade that will make more and more people want to buy a Mag! Rogue is one of the few guys out there that actively supports the Mag totin' community (and in turn AGD) and this is like spitting in his face.
While I have not met Tom in person, I believe him to be an a reasonable, mature, honorable and certainly intelligent man whom would frown upon what is happening here at AO. This needs to be a community that we can all be a proud part of, nobody wants to wear a jersey that says I surround myself by facist douchebags...
Nobody gives me hell for saying ****, crap or damn or at MCB because we are all mature enough to handle such "insanely vulgar language". So long as nobody drops the "F" bomb in every post or consistantly ****es off another member over there you will never bothered by a mod.
AO needs to wake up. We are supposed to be one of the "grown-up" owners groups. Lets clean this place up and dump the BS! Make AO a place you want to come to, a community you want to be a part of!
Steve
See how long that lasts! We need to get things back in order!

Oh now come on! How old are we that I can't say pi-double s? How many 3 year-olds can we possibly offend? and that word before crap was another word that means crap, but starts with "SH"...
Honestly its a wonder anyone can say Autococker...

"Tom Kaye come fix your House"
Toms house is in a bad neighborhood and in poor shape. Maybe an investor will buy and Flip.. although AO needs a little more paint and new appliances. :lol2:

All the shenanigans over there led me here, especially the banning of Rouge, thats absolutely ridiculous...all I did was follow the yellow brick road...
Great post Retro.

Me too, but its OK I've got alot to do this week anyway. I've only been banned from AO once and it wasn't for a post I made(I left myself logged in when I wasn't around my computer) but in all the years I've been there I've made less than 1000 posts.
And the flag is still awsome JAM even if me stealing and posting it over there may cost me a week or two.

Retro, i doubt you're in any immediate risk of feeling the almighty ban stick of Beemer, but if you do feel it then i'll probably be right on your coat tails. It seems that by standing up for the right thing and pointing out how Beemer has broken the rules more than those that he has banned has led to a few bridges being torched.

unless beemr is currently inactive i think he is finally getting the hint that banning everyone posting in you's guys's threads is a bad way to go about things.

It's ok.
I couldn't believe I got banned either.
I woke up in the morn, and wanted to check the thread.
Comes with an error saying I have no privileges.
I then go and log out, and view the ban thread.
And bam, there I am, Banned for linking a vid with mild swearing...
Good thing I didn't link them to Boondock Saints, Resevoir Dogs, or Pulp Fiction, Cuz then I'd prolly have a perm Ban.:lol2:

Haha, i actually would have liked to see someone link one of those movies (which all kick ***).
Anyway i brought you up in the one discussing how the mods are being bogus (well Beemer, last i checked Army hasn't given anyone the ban stick for a while, but i could be wrong).

rogue is not immune to the rules
bit as others have said this case was a bit absurd.
im always surprised what people get banned for or edited for, ive been surprisingly lucky.

We never said he was immune to them, in fact i think he should be subject to the same rules as everyone else, as he's still just a member. Personally i like Rogue, he's been helpful to me when i've had questions, but he shouldn't have even gotten a warning, even if he was "undermining beemer's authority" because that's a bull**** excuse.

As am i, i expected my thread to get shut down ages ago, but it's still alive and kicking. Then there's the one that was made around the same time as mine, i mean i wonder why they're just letting it go on.

Well it looks like the revolt may be getting squashed cause when you try to go to AO it just says "There seems to have been a slight problem with the database". Or is it just me that gets this?

I would say also there is a fight thread here, which imo is a great idea. You have to be allowed to speak your mind. It also it allows both partys to explain what they believe in and lets them vent there anger. You wonder why so many people go do stupid things when there mad.

I was banned on AO for speaking the truth, which just happened to have been calling someone a damn moron.

They dont like the truth. They want you to believe the story theyve told you.
In so many ways, this reminds me of that movie V for Vendetta.

It reminds me of the book 1984, though i'm sure that both the book and the movie parallel each other in many ways (i've yet to see the movie, but i want to).
Anyway, i ended up getting banned for just that, calling him out and just simply saying what happened, i didn't break any rule. Also, i find it odd that neither Warpig or I have shown up on the ban list (unless he's talking about a while ago).

I know, I found that pretty damn ironic coming from the forum that Tom Kaye described (in so many words) as having some very bright people on it who are sure to see through your bull****. He advised Billy Gardner not to jerk 'em around because it just makes it worse when they figure out the truth; apparently Beemer could have used that advice, too.
Goddamn I love being able to activate the cuss filter without getting the banstick.
