SC Tiger Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 I just found out they apparently banned GamerGirl. What the actual ****? GG was about the nicest member over there. I don't think she was CAPABLE of committing a banable offense. Eric - I know you don't like us bashing GT and I do apologize - but they have lost their ever-loving minds! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was an original member, and he and I had some real throw-down arguments over there, but I never thought he was too bad. Then he disappeared for awhile, now he's back as ubermoderator, and seems to be bringing the ban-hammer down with a quickness. He's not a mod here so hopefully he'll be back to his old self. That said - Eric gives us more freedom over here so personally I try not to push it too far. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming she was based off of what I was told over there (not by a mod). Maybe it was a temp ban or something but her profile at GT seems to still be active. ETA - wait, no it isn't.

IMO she is banned for good. https://www.glocktalk.com/members/gamergirl.150634/ They had a thread going for the most recently banned members and she was one of them. Thread was also removed. Every now and then she was poking people with different opinions, and she knows how to do it well. That being said, it wasn't ban worthy, and she was never too proud to agree with the same people in other situations. If she is the new tipping point for bans, they can go ahead and remove 50% of all members. Edited August 17, 2018 by crockett Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Rabbi Posted August 17, 2018 Administrators Share Posted August 17, 2018 A few things. 1. I don’t want to bash GT. Not there and not here. 2. We can talk about it without bashing. Things are obviously different on GT. 3. I have been on GT a long time. I know many people there. I would like to keep being there even if it is less and less 4. Just for the record, because someone went really conspiracy theory in that thread, I have utterly no financial tie to this site. Eric and I are friends and hang out in the real world. I am happy he is doing this and has many other awesome things planned. 5. Whatever happens the world will keep spinning. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 I was always a quiet member on the 'other' forum, but today I let loose a rant on Rabbi's post there which may get me booted. Oh, well... Sad thing is that I have got 19 years in over there and here I'm just fresh meat. I guess that's how things roll. But it would be nice to get my time 'grandfathered' in. Anyhow, the fires aboard the good ship GT are burning but I doubt the ship will sink. Maybe roll a bit further northward hey? Ronaldo, snark mode on today 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
