I got a warning for making a low-content post, and a probation for stating I used Adblock Plus.

My next suspension/probation will likely be this troll argument I had recently though, when the mods wake up and see it, or someone gets fed up and reports it.

I got a probation for a versus thread in my early days. I should have gotten a couple recently, but I'm not complaining.

And that was all your fault. <_<

I got a warning for derailing two threads. Another for making a low content post in a thread where two people posted, an op where there was nothing to discuss and was buried for a week.
Oh and a probation for saying that Top 5 with Lisa Foiles was "meh" and not for me.

I seem to get probated for trolling every time I post. Mods have a major-league hair trigger lately, and I'm not so sure I like the new order around here. On the bright side, however, being a polarizing figure means I've got as many big fans as mortal enemies, and nobody ever got anywhere by being mediocre and invisible.
Well, below you can tell my reason.

Another guy justcalled something retarded and got probated so... yeah. Getting kind of ridiculous.

In order, it was
Warning: Insulting
Warning: Insulting and Flaming! Final Warning!
Warning: Insulting! Final Warning!
Then a 30 day suspension for: Trolling.

To be honest I deserved them all, really.

Not if I can help it.

On topic: I've got a clean record thus far. And I really don't give a shit either way about it.

I made an amusing joke about trolling in a thread that specifically asked us to show how we troll. What made it worse was that the joke consisted of a totally harmless image from Princess Bride.

I don't know what annoys me more; the face that someone thought I was being a problem, or the fact that the mod clearly had never seen one of the greatest movies ever made.

Here is a link to that fateful post. [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/18.195976-Poll-The-Art-of-Being-A-Total-Jerk#6296160] (User discretion advised. Apparently it was enough of a problem to incure mod wrath, so I should put this warning on).

I got a moderation warning for the low content post thing on a thread entitled "Which games today would have been bad by the standards of the 90s" or some such. I said "Farmville", which I thought pretty much said it all without a tl;dr post about casual games. I wrote them back about the warning, because I figured it must be a mod bot thing-- i.e. one word = low content post. No response, so I figure it either got lost in the daily PMs, or they just don't like deleting warnings.

But in all seriousness, the warnings can seem a tad draconian, but by internet standards this forum is a haven from the usual flame wars, etc. Unless you want to post in one of those threads about why girls or piracy, of course.

replying with just a picture.
Now I add blocks of text full of drivel to make it look like I'm contributing to the conversation!

I'm very cautious when I post, and haven't received any MOD warnings as of yet.
I've said some things before that I thought could've earnt me a warning/probation.

I got warned for making a rather rude post about the fella who plays everyone's favorite sparkly vampire.
