Those appear to be just test bans. If you'll notice, there aren't any relevant links to where the offense occurred and they were all given by the moderator clarkey022... and of course, the very telling Reason for the ban: Test.

Sure. This especially caught my eye because there aren't many examples like this, and most of the other examples have more than "Reason: Test".

See also the "PaddleTest" ones from a few months ago -- when the Nexus admins were still setting up Paddle as their new payment provider, and probably wanted to make sure everything got canceled properly if a paid user got banned.

(They've been mentioned in this thread before.)

Got a smile out of two apparent ban-system tests:

"Bein' our test account?  That's a paddlin'."

Ever since we selected Paddle as our payment provider I have not been able to stop saying this!

@AaronOfMpls. You were just bored and wanted to dig a little, huh? No, no, no. I'm not laughing because I do it too!

Okay, yeah, I'm laughing a bit. Hah!

This next user posted a rant that was originally in what appears to be Chinese. I don't know if it either loses or gains something in translation but it's funny either way. Where did this person come up with this stuff?

Warning: The translation is obscenely offensive. If you're thin-skinned, you may want to pass.

Yeah, there's a least one F-Bomb in there. My favorite line though is the very last! It's F-Bombingly funny!

Thanks for the chuckles, Dreamer4Life!

I dug up some cases from the past just for fun.

"Attempted bribery"

"Misreading"

"Photoshopping"

And my favorite one. I previously quoted just one line without a link.

Surprisingly often, that kind of thing is a "copy pasta".

So that wasn't a one-off? Well, that just takes a little bit of the fun out of reading it. However, the line about licking the exhaust pipes of motorcycles just slays me. What the hell? I amend what I said earlier, that line is my favorite.

That's just good comedy.
