In memory of dead --- R.I.P. circa 07/17/2005

[wacki]

Since dead is now long gone and never to return (banned 4 life), I figured it might be fun to list your favorite (or least favorite) dead post.

This one is mine:

Dead compliments Ray Zee (http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showflat.php?Cat=&Number=2825672&page=&view=&sb=5& o=&vc=1) (read Ray Zee's post first)

*I hope this thread doesn't fall under Dynasty's big 3. Technically he isn't a poster anymore so I do think I have found a loophole.

EDIT: HE GOT BANNED FOR ACCUMULATED OFFENSES. I DIDN'T DO IT SO I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE STRAW THAT BROKE THE CAMELS BACK WAS. TRY TO KEEP ON TOPIC PLEASE. DEAD NEVER BOTHERED ME. HOWEVER I DID FIND MANY OF HIS POSTS (SUCH AS THE ONE ABOVE) FUNNY IN A MORON SORT OF WAY.

[Macdaddy Warsaw]

Wait, what happened to him?

[Jules22]

i hope hes banned 4 L

[wacki]

He go banned. He's still alive.

What'd he do, if I may ask? Seems like a lot of stuff should have gotten him banned.

[Bulldog]

I can't find the words to express how much better my life is now that Dead is banned.

Oh wait, it didn't change it a bit. Never mind.

[jason_t]

Why was Dead banned? I am genuinely curious.

[CCass]

Dead was one of the few posters I seriously considered ignoring. I don't think one of his 6,000+ posts were worthwhile.

[-Skeme-]

He offered nothing worthwhile to the forum. I don't know why he was banned, but I don't really care either.

[HopeydaFish]

I don't follow OOT as religiously as some people, so I didn't happen to notice the post where Dead finally got banned. Or was it perhaps his whole "body of work" more so than any one individual post?

[eric5148]

Wow, great work! Now instead of everyone just ignoring him, he'll make a new account and we'll have to read a bunch of his posts before we figure out it's him.

[-Skeme-]

I don't think his annoying personality + high posting levels can be duplicated or hidden.. he'll be sifted out fairly quickly if he decides to make a new account.

It was accumulated offenses.

He'll come back as Undead.

[lighterjobs]

the only user i have ever ignored is not even here anymore. i knew when i saw he had ~500 posts in his first week he was trouble.

Then be the first person NOT to hijak this thread and post some!

[KDawgCometh]

i figured that you'd be extremely happy

[SHUT UP DEAD]

I hereby announce my retirement. My job is done.

Live long and prosper.

*rides off into sunset*

[SpearsBritney]

who was that masked man?

I was DeadIsARetard.

That account has been banned, so, I cant retire it. But, I would if I could.

Also, it's kind of funny that this was by banned message:

"Your account has been banned or locked: gimmick account to insult poser "Dead""'


(it actually said poser)

There have been many, many misogynistic posts in OOT that make Dead look like a kitten. Sure, he was a pain in the ass sometimes, but if we're getting into the business of policing OOT, there are going to be waaaaaaaay more indians than cowboys. IMHO.

[Felix_Nietsche]

He was quite funny without intending to be.

[partygirluk]

you should ip ban him. on which note, have you also banned his alias "jakesta"?

[wacki]

account unbanned feel free to retire him.

wtf is nobody posting any links? Not 1 [censored] link WTF?!?!

Well, he wished me well just before the end, and I'll wish him well too.

[/ QUOTE ]

I was very fair to Dead. In addition to banning that gimmick account, I deleted quite a few threads/posts which were created soley to insult him.

"poser"- that was an accident.

[CallMeIshmael]

I. CANT. STOP. LOVING. THE. IRONY. (http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showthreaded.php?Cat=&Board=sportevents&Number=289 0673&Forum=,All_Forums,&Words=&Searchpage=0&Limit= 500&Main=2879527&Search=true&where=&Name=27370&dat erange=&newerval=&newertype=&olderval=&oldertype=& bodyprev=#Post2890673)

That is definitely one of my favorite dead posts as well. What a fucktard.

The best part of that was that you had Talk2BigSteve on your cool list.

[trying2learn]

i wonder how upset dead is...i mean, it was pretty clear that he lived on this site.

but that said - good riddance.

[[censored]]

bad timing for someguy2 as I happened to open this post to see his ghost bump.

Just so everyone knows, this is a permanent ban.

[[censored]]

I'm a burst of energy right now and I feel like ranting a little bit. I actually remember thinking 2-3 weeks ago that someguy2 sure does seem to suck but I didn't want to ban him because I thought that would be unfair. Well enough of the self doubt as time and time again my wisdom shows itself to be true. For now on if I think you suck, i'm banning first and asking questions later as clearly I'm like truth serum when it comes to sniffing shithead posters out.

[Voltron87]

is ghost bumping not kosher? what if its a good ghost bump of a particularly appropriate thread (dcifrthis's unfortunate combo of threads, for example) or a memorable one?

im just looking for a clarification, im all for banning stupid ghostbumpers.

In the examples you site I would expect that a traditional bump with comment like "this thread is appropriate to the current discussion in X thread or something along those lines. It doesn't at all require a ghost bump where the poster bumps a thread then deletes his post. Basically once again I only require posters to use common sense and once again there will be plenty of idiots who prove themselves incapable of doing so.

[Voltron87]

that makes sense. [censored] away.

The policy was clearly established yesterday when one poster went on a ninja bumping spree. It was [censored] annoying and he got caught red handed.

I have to say [censored], OOT has been really good lately. I think you should definetly trust your insticts. There has been a marked change here since you became a mod. All you need is a cool way of banning people. [censored] in the banned poster's title is cool but maybe you could get a calling card of sorts where you respond to their last post. A good image comes to mind. Think about it.

The differece was that Dead was always like that and for 6000 posts in 6 months. He seemed to be a professional troll and his omnipresence affected the mood here too negativly to be tolerated. I think we should give the mod who did it a prize of some sort.
