Not here. I took some argument bait on another forum from a particularly irritating user that no-one could really put up with for much longer. That was the last argument he had with that account.
No. I've gotten a forum warning notice myself though, because of this post. http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/9.188558-What-the-f-were-they-thinking?page=4#5813341
I found it to be unworthy of a forum warning notice, but hey, the Escapist isn't a democracy.

Not on here but it's happened on gamefaqs before. The guy sent me a hate-filled message over Xbox Live because of it.
Buddy unless he's your next door neighbor, I wouldn't be too worried. If you game online, you are bound to meet angry people. It's not a big deal.Adamc-mh said:
On topic: nope. The Escapist shouldn't be tainted by stuff like that, so I try not to get people too worked up. If you are having an argument, focus on the argument, not the other guy.
I recently got someone suspended after calling them an idiot.

Yes, on the Bioware forums. A guy was obviously trolling, so we made a fucking giant quote pyramid in the thread, while he still desperatly attempted to provoke us. We all got bans for doing it as well as him for his more ... agressive responses during "Operation Raptor-Laser", but the mods must have decided we had protected the interests of the forum because we were unbanned after a few days.
It was glorious.

Not on this board, which is a bit odd considering I seem to get into lengthy arguments at the drop of a hat.
Guess it's a compliment to the quality of my discussion partners. Or at least their ability to string a few sentences together without resorting to mindless flaming.
That, or the long posts scare away the mods.

Yes. I called some Marine an ITG for being unable to post in a forum without referring to "librel pussies" and suggested that he always brings up the fact that he's in the Marine Corps because he wants the admiration that the recruiter suckered him into believing that he'd get.
Of course, he flew off the handle at everyone and got banhammered. To this day, I've never seen the words "pussy" and "******" used so many times in a single thread.

You're the one that got Rolling Thunder banned?
He was right anyways, you had no idea what you were talking about and were completely wrong. How about you post what he was responding to as well, then we'll see if everyone else wouldn't have been furious with you as well.

Because I may have been a little misinformed, which I admitted to later. The content of my post was not what was important here.Pimppeter2 said:
I also did not get him banned, he got himself banned when he broke forum rules and a third party reported him.
