Post Contrary Ban Question.
I'd like to say something in place of my bud Contrary because he does not have a way to communicate with the moderators and admins of Data Realms Fan Forums.
The banning process as is doesn't allow the banned to speak with someone about their ban because they cannot view the banned subforum. If someone wants to plea their case, they can't, nor can they find out what or how long they were banned for. As an added salt to the wound, they cannot even view contact information of any of user son datarealms making it unjustly and unfairly difficult to communicate and get information about their ban, that is all.

Blame Weasel, not us. He changed it to this retarded way, it'll most likely be changed again.

The Banned section might return, we'll see. I'm not sure what you mean about contact information - Contrary can (and already has) contacted me via private message while banned, so I'd say he's perfectly capable of making a plea to be unbanned.

So then what are the restrictions of being banned?

Are you just not aloud to post and that's it?

Correcto.

You can still PM anybody you want. Just no posting and your name turns gray.

I think there may have been some special circumstances on your ban. Weasel banned you himself, I believe, so I don't know what else he may have done. But yeah, being banned really just turns your name gray and disables posting right now. Also, if anybody is wondering, Contrary is banned for two weeks.

I was banned by weasel at some point, does that mean I get unbanned?

I mean, its silly to even argue about him being. He was being a ♥♥♥♥ in posting, and he got banned. It's what happens--speaking from experience here, people.

Play nice with the upper management, and you don't get banned. If you like the community enough to not get banned, don't act like a donkey in it.

Besides which, I'm pretty sure you can be a total ♥♥♥hole, as long as you're actually saying something worth saying. Which perhaps negates the status of "♥♥♥hole".

Not really. Sustained assholery will get you a ban.
Also, /topic.
