MuteSignals Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 I had no clue there was a thread to discuss folks getting warned/banned, and here I thought I was odd sometimes taking a peak at the reasons why. It's something I bring up with my small community on how to behave when they're on this site. I always see folks getting warned/banned for insulting/verbally attacking someone and it should be really easy to avoid doing but it happens anyway. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's funny is the folks that admit to having a cracked/pirated game..... when the policy on that type of thing here is spelled out in no uncertain terms, in several places..... The level of unintelligence of some folks never ceases to amaze. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. I started it several months back because I like to point and laugh at stupid people. It's sort of my alternative to trolling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirCadsimar Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 (edited) Some user is trying to advertise a drug for erectile dysfunction... in the Site Support forums, of all places. I already reported it. Edited August 15 by SirCadsimar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a spammer who slipped through. Erectile dysfunction med, CBD gummies, call girls, pirated movies. Anything like that is either automated spam or someone being paid by a scummy company to post their nonsense in random places online. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlienSlof Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 I thought encouraging and endorsing piracy was a banning offence, but: Is just given a warning and no restrictions of any type? Sometimes I do feel that there are consistency issues from time to time. However, I kind of understand why people pirate; games have become hellishly expensive, just like everything else. I remember when a top PC game was £20 at most. It doesn't make pirating games right, but it does show why it's done. I'm lucky as I'm a modder and I use DPs to get my games more often than not, or I wait around for a good sale. DPs are a godsend for me as I'm a retired oldie with not much spare wad to wave around!

I've seen others get banned for discussing and promoting piracy. This one not only discussed it but posted a link to where others could download a copy. So, I don't know. By the way: How did you link that post to open a new tab? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
