Got banned from The Escapist for three days for posting pictures "without context" though they had context to me...oh well, I'm not disputing it.

And I got a seven day ban from WoW once because my brother used my account and said some nasty things to another player.

(Pumping weights, exposing his prison tats and massive guns through his ripped shirt)

Yeah, I've done time. 3 days of it. C'mon, guns! Push it! Sorry, I like to talk to the boys. Yeah, it was a wild time. Some guy posted a thread with a false link. I didn't know at the time that he was packing it, didn't click, didn't care. Wrote my little ditty and I thought that was all. Next day, screaming down with their sirrens, the fuzz turn up, smash up the place. Took at least 5 of 'em down with me, the bastards.

(Spits)

They say, "Promoting a false link!" Whatever pigs, whatever. They threw on the shakels and chucked me in the slammer. 3 days man, 3 DAYS! You haven't seen what I've seen! You haven't been through the shit that goes on in here!

I'd never really thought about, but I've never been banned from anything.

That feels good.

I have also never been banned from anything universe.

Well, except one thing. I got banned from a CS (or maybe UT, I don't know) server permanently. The message I got was:

Banned Permanently. Reason: "Fuck"

I was a bit pissed.

I was a very different 15 year old. So I've got scores of bans under my belt, from game servers to forums. I was that guy. You know the one. If there's a mod on, I have a mystical ability to find and antagonize him.

I just remembered I was banned from CS. Apparently my skills with a sniper were considered cheating.

I haven't been banned from the Escapist yet. Maybe if I make an offensive thread, even though no one pays attention to the threads I give...Maybe I should change my name to Happy Argument Man....

Best ban message ever, maybe.

I think I can top it. I got banned from a CSS server and got this message

Banned Permanently. Reason: "No reason, Douche Bag"

I like it how he seperated the words, in a "I'm so going to emphasise this" way....

I've been reported a few times, in WOW, by idiots, then when a GM has contacted me they've realised I'm actually capable of stringing a sentence together, unlike the accuser, and can usually explain that I maybe annoyed them by asking them to stop griefing/ swearing/ ganking/ whatever, and they realise I'm not the type to cause trouble, lol me and leave me be. Certainly never had so much as a 'dont do it again' tho, never mind a ban.

I was perma-banned from a counter strike server for accidentally shooting a teammate in the back of the head at spawn. I was aiming for a window and, you know how guns are inaccurate when you're moving, right?.

I was also kicked from my guild a few time in Guild Wars during one of the leader's kicking sprees. He was pretty insane.

Banned from corporate christmas parties. It was a big race weekend and three of us started drinking about 9 or 10 in the morning. By the time the corporate function rolled around at 7 we were flat out stumbling out of the car (one of my mates family members drove us). It culminated in one of us (the tall lanky 6 foot 9 guy) walking around yelling "Hey [Gits], You see her? She likes to suck the...." I'll leave the rest up to your imagination. Me, I tried to get with my manager and the third guy made suggestive comments about the CEO's wife (60+ yrs of age btw).

Put on probation just last night for DUI. I had a couple beers and was on my way home, figured I was right (the limit in Aus is 0.05) but was actually blowing 0.06. $440 AU Fine and 4 demerit points on my license.

And in game I was banned from a UT or Quake server (I forget which - think it was QIII) for axing a server admin with the fist when he had the BFG. While I was drunk.

Heh.

Now I just play privately, far easier.

I got banned from a server in America's Army for team-killing. My defense is that the guy shouldn't have been on the same hill that three enemy soldiers had just run over.

I had to leave a pub a few months ago, but it was my friend that got kicked out, not me. Letting him walk around the bad side of town on his own while we were all having a grand old time inside would have been a bit of a dick move.

In my entire time playing games online, I've been temporarily banned three times. All this year, always on the same server network on the same game, always for swearing. Can you see a pattern here?

GamingSA.com's Call of Duty 4 servers have an absurd swear filter. If you utter any word on the blacklist, you get a warning, and three warnings equates to a ban. That doesn't sound so bad until you realise that even such relatively tame words as 'shit', or 'ass' are on the blacklist, and - even worse - that it's a "smart" filter that looks out for certain combinations of letters within other words so you can't circumvent it. At least, that's how it's supposed to work. In reality it considers ANY word containing the letters also belonging to a swear word to be blacklisted unless it's told otherwise, which means the admins have had to go into the filter and specifically allow such words (like "assault", for example). It gets worse, they don't only have to add the word, but also any variations of it, so even if they whitelist "assault", you can still get banned for "assaults". There have been countless complaints about wrongful bans. One of the times I was banned, it was for saying 'assume', and I've heard dozens of similar stories.

Not only that, the timeout period for the warnings is absurdly long, something like three or four days, so you might let a "holy shit" slip out one day, a "ffs" the next... say you're going to go and mow the grass after that, and you're GAWN.

It's all a bit rich considering the game is rated MA15+ in this country to begin with.

I've been banned... once. And it was totally unjust!

It was in Call of Duty 1, United offensive. Ponyri map. In the train station, I tossed a smoke grenade. The smoke dispersed, but not over the floor. I went prone, shot someone (admin) in the foot, killed me and he and went all bitchy on me how I was cheating, how it wasn't possible, and all that, yadda yadda. And I was banned. He had no proof, he was claiming how I had a hack that I could turn off and on at will and bla bla bla. I even tried to relift the ban by defending myself in the forums with a few friends from that server, but it was in vain.

One ban in my entire life. I've always been a good girl, but still I can't do it right! :(
