Saint wields the ban hammer very well. Well deserved too.

Nah.

Couldn't think of any other reason he'd be missed!

It was like reading the scribblings of a serial killer.

Gorotsuki · « **Reply #8 on:** January 10, 2010, 04:14:35 pm »

Was he really that bad?
I've read a lot of his stuff
under 2 different names.
He's a bit different but,
entertaining to read.
How much trouble can
you really cause typing
stuff on a forum?
Oh, well
not really my business.

Gorotsuki always types in Haiku , or doesnt realize the forum does word wrap automatically, or both.

Typing on a forum
Can cause Saint to ban Ummon.
Is that my business?

Fixt.

The screwy type
is just my thing.
I actually did the same
here before as Naru.
Was just getting familiar
with the place when
a drunk driver crashed through
my house, the gas line
and obliterated it.

It's taken a year or so
to get back here but,
I was unable to log back in.
Forgot the password or got
pruned for inactivity.

Anyhow, back to the fun.

What was the reason he was banned ACCORDING TO THE RULES?

I mean I def got a vibe that everyone thought he was a knob, but honestly, I have seen worse.

I some (very rare and small) instances he was funny and I really loved his workout video..... I lost 12 pounds in 3 weeks!

Looking like a spider crawling upside down! $:-\$

I'm betting the answer lies in Post Hell, so we may never know. However, Saint vary rarely bans people, so if he was banned, you can be certain it was for a good reason.

I've lost exact count, but he has been banned, in his various incarnations, either 4 or 5 times now.

I think it is 5 ... I believe one of his accounts was reinstated after a previous banning.

That would mean Ummon has been banned as much as or more than all others combined (that I can think of) in all the time that I have been here.

I saw a number of the events that lead to some of his bannings and they were all pretty clearcut and I know that I was thinking that he should be banned again in the first weeks of December, even though I wasn't involved in those dustups.

You missed the unwritten rule. Saint pays for it. He/his mods can do as they please, without having to explain reasons to us peons.

Don't annoy the guy that foots the bill. Good words to live by.

saint · « **Reply #20 on:** January 11, 2010, 04:42:13 pm »

I appreciate the support but I have a pretty thick skin.

Other than spammers I think I can count the number of permanent bans on one hand. The number of times people have annoyed me however...

ark_ader · « **Reply #21 on:** January 11, 2010, 06:34:52 pm »

Saint,

Can't you just IP ban him instead?

I mean just do the last octet.

Worst case scenario he changes ISPs.

Just hope the guy isn't using your provider....

saint · « **Reply #22 on:** January 11, 2010, 07:43:45 pm »

If someone is determined they can get around the ban with a different email and/or IP (using proxies if nothing else). It doesn't cause me any grief to ban multiple accounts however. It's a bit of a silly game but meh.

thatitalian · « **Reply #23 on:** January 12, 2010, 04:50:32 am »

Hehehe, that was quite funny. I think I actually saw that. To be honest, if he was that annoying ALL the time, I would ban him myself, so I don't blame you!

The reason I asked is that if I ever lost my rag and ranted on I wouldn't want to get banned. I know how quickly things can turn nasty... was just curious really.

Aside from spammers, I have never that I can recall banned someone without a whole handful of warnings.

Ohh, my dear boys. If only it were that easy...

(Actually, it's easier than that, but would require an emotional re-profiling on your part.)

It became time to stop coddling them. And you. Be glad this is a virtual environment.

PS: I have long understood why some women hate men. I do sympathise with them.

He PM'd me with some incoherent rambling about hanging with stoners and me being a conformist.
Meanwhile, he non-conformed his way off the best forum on the net.

Way to stick it to The Man, Ummon.

Hoopz · « **Reply #30 on:** February 10, 2010, 06:06:07 pm »

I was blessed to hear from him also. Funny, his new ID originally had three posts but, in typical fashion, he found himself being edited by the man again.

I tried to google translate what he typed but they dont seem to have "crazy person" as a language to translate from
