Just out of curiosity, do you still visit /b/?
Sometimes, but usually only when I'm in the mood to do some channing at four in the morning and the less-popular boards slow down to a standstill from the lack of users. Well, that, and also for when I'm not feeling very particular about my porn. /b/ was my introduction to 4chan (as I imagine it was for most) and I stayed there for two or three years, but after a while, even pure chaos starts to look the same, so the appeal of themed boards eventually clicked with me. It's nice to have a general subject (even if it is uncommonly adhered to) and a front page that you can refresh without having literally every single thread replaced by completely different ones; /fit/ in particular has been a favorite for the last few months because health has become a very large focus of my life, and there's a fair amount of useful information to be found in between the troll posts and general faggotry that afflicts all of 4chan... plus, greentext fatty-raeg threads. I love how each one has its own sort of subculture, and have been meaning to branch out to others once I'm willing to ingrain myself in a new sort of madness.

I guess the only thing that compelled me to stay at /b/ for as long as I did was a combination of instant gratification and a sense that I was going to discover something new every time I went on... but then the magic wore off after seeing the same reposts of reposts of reposts of reposts for years on end (I've seen tons of image-limit YLYL threads that could have come entirely from my old laptop's hard-drive). I completely agree that it was always shit, but for a while, it was novel and entertaining shit; now that it's run out of ways to surprise me, it's just the regular kind of shit. I'm sure it's still churning out its fair share of brilliant OC, but my tolerance for the flood of shit surrounding it has worn down my ability to patiently seek it out.

About 1200 po- wait ...
...

why am I telling you this?

My post count is over there

<---

Okay so anyway, two warnings so far. The first one I saw coming and I deserved, the second one was a complete surprise. It was for an `offensive' post, where I briefly stated that I generally disliked the majority of the people who live in my country. I was under the impression that posts were considered offensive pretty much only if we go attack some specific forum member, or if we were being really really racist or whatever, but obviously I misinterpreted the rules and I should go read them again and be more careful in the future.

2866 posts(67 after this one) and absolutely no warnings ever. I think I'm doing fairly well. And I have been a member shortly after my birthday back in January of '09.

Didn't look for my post count, but I'm pretty sure ~10 and believe it or not,
No warnings! A true work of art, if I say so myself

Roughly 1700 posts and two warnings. Made significantly less impressive by the fact that at least 1000 of those posts can be attributed to an RP group I'm in rather than the 700 odd forum posts. And even then, all that says about those 700 posts is that they're relatively inoffensive. Can't remember what I got the first warning for, but the second was admittedly well warranted on account of me acting like a sarcastic ass (more than usual).

2168 before this post and no warnings. I've had a thread locked before, but apparently that's a little different. The thread that was locked was "Sexual Misadventures of the Escapist" Basically asking people to tell funny stories about sexual or sex related encounters, because it seems like sex and odd things go together a lot.

I am actually a member of two groups (and founder of one of them) that advocate free speech here on the Escapist. The hope was to gather enough support to get the mods to try to slacken the rules a bit.

When Spinwhiz came into the group that wasn't mine, I saw my chance to discuss things with him and I came up with the idea that we should have a place to voice our opinions on the rules and suggest new ideas. The idea is that this would allow us to be more of a part of the rule making process. Since then, the larger free speech group (sadly, not the one I started XD) has pretty much gone quiet, and the "Ideas for The Escapist" group was formed. So if you have any suggestions that would improve the site, that's a good place to go.

Also, for those of you who don't know, Spinwhiz was the top staff member here on the site itself. Since the group was formed, he's moved on, but the person that replaced Spin is an active member in the Ideas for The Escapist group.

Uh,about 100 posts and 3 warnings...yeah,it's pretty bad compared to most people out there,but let's see what I've been warned for:

Saying that christianity is WRONG(I'm atheist) on a post related to Stephen Hawking going like "Oh,there's no heaven or god,etc".So when people say that Hawking is WRONG it's alright but when I come in and defend him apparently i'm insulting everyone.

Going like "JIZZ IN MY PANTS" on a topic related to Assassin's Creed:Revelations(it had new content at the time).I was expressing how excited I was for it(I think it was a teaser trailer or something),not just being "gross" and trying to get my post count up.

This dude posting something weird then me going like "weird" and him calling me a retard and a troll(again,THIS IS ABSOLUTELY FINE),then me suggesting he has mental retardation(again,when I do it it's COMPLETELY WRONG).

EDIT:Apparently i got another warning,for advocating piracy.Yes,a tiny little reference joke is now advocating piracy.Great.

Watch me get another warning for this post.Or not,because I just suggested it would happen.Or maybe yes,because I suggested that it may not happen.Or not,because GAH NEVERMIND...
