Well, I'm not so sure. I mean, they let Ripster do it all the time, right? Or maybe Linkbane is Ripster. Makes sense. He was a little kid when I met him.

Then we should definitely ban him.

A shame for ol' Linkbane too. If he could only get off of tp4's nuts, he wouldn't give up the evidence needed to know that he is who he is. Maybe next time, Premonition.

That must be it. I think he wanted to buy my other CCs too. But I don't think fencers make money, do they?

I believe he was also upset because I would rek tp4 in every interaction between us, and hurting his god hurt his feelings.

Don't you guys have a better system to prevent things like these? There's nothing that really stops me from making several different accounts for whatever I wish, just using one of a couple emails each time. Glad to see moose is still objectively acting like a bitter child. Was fun, noticing that the exact same opinion was regarded completely differently when it came from someone who seemed new. Anyways, nice to be able to talk openly for once, would be nice if members had some sort of equal treatment. Hope the forum improves, later.

You're confused as to why someone who acted different got treated different?

I'm so bitter. This is how bitter I am: I never said anything to Linkbane the entire time he was a member, until I let him borrow a CC, and gave him a free keyboard. Then, I noticed how he was acting toward a lot of people. Once the terms of borrowing a CC had been met in my eyes, I asked for it back. Yet couldn't get it. So bitter.

Do you even know what the word "objectively" means?

Honestly, this has been the refrain from this dork the entire time he's been here.  "people were mean to me for no reason, those *******s don't know true keyboard greatness and don't deserve mechanical keyboards because they type so slow, I don't know why people are being mean to me, it must be because I'm new"

He's incapable of stepping back and examining his own actions.

Permabanned members? What about Magic Meatball aka MMB aka Bro Caps (http://deskthority.net/off-topic-f10/beware-of-magicmeatball-t3766.html)?

What about something that is ancient history that didn't lead to him being warned or banned on either forum?  Or more directly: what about something that happened on another forum?

Hmm...in so many ways...this thread is like reality TV (worthless but sickeningly fascinating). Not relative to keyboards in any way, nor really to GH, after all, those people MADE THE CHOICE to be perma-banned-holio. The constant moronic-drama-queen-aggro-meaningless-behavior wears thin, and that's what I say about the peeps I actually like, LOL.

GH needs to find itself, create and strictly apply a 5 strikes system, and not be afraid to possibly "lose" some hacker talent. Not one that has been banned, should not be, and some that should be, are not "yet".

And anyone sneaking back in is just lame on all levels.

My opinion of course. If you disagree, don't hand me a loaded gun.
