As I've said over at EB, this whole business saddens me...

, but I'm not one who will kick up a fuss. I still read the news here, and post now and then to an interesting topic.

You would think so wouldn't you

Anyway, to get back on topic!...

"People overestimate how many people this site bans"

Just out of interest, how many people have been banned from nNVews in the past seven days? I generally try not to speculate about such things, but curiousity has gotten the better of me tonight.

**vampireuk** · 06-07-04, 03:46 PM

Five I believe and 2 of those have had previous bans and re-registered...around 7 times

PenguinJim · 06-07-04, 03:50 PM

Heh, that's not even one a day!! I bet those overestimaters feel pretty silly right now.

Edit: Ooh, thanks for the quick response, btw! I feel like I've been upgraded to first-class for free!

and Digi is over at the other site saying how much he musta ticked Mike off.. , If he asked to be banned, Why is he over on EB acting like he got thrown out of here?

Why does all this drama have to occur. We're not a buncha high school cheerleaders. It serves nothing productive at all.

I would like to close that these are hardware tech sites and forums. Not the girls highschool locker room. Some people seriously need to grow up.

**vampireuk** · 06-07-04, 04:10 PM

The drama everywhere is not helping at all and it is just not productive. Everyone just needs to settle down and realise what this is, its a hobby.

ChrisRay · 06-07-04, 04:37 PM

I agree vamp, I see over in that other thread that people are threatening to just keep coming back, after they have been banned several times.

The thought comes to mind "Do you not know your place?" Its obviously not here. If I wasnt welcome here. I sure wouldnt be here. All that returning does is pose to start new drama. And In my opinion thats all they are trying to do.

*sigh*

ragejg · 06-07-04, 05:05 PM

The personal content in the later posts in this thread... ummm....

Damn it.

That should not happen here.

same goes for the other site talky... that don't fly here... it's better for IRC and IM.

Back to original topic, or I swiftly close this thread.

EDIT: Chris, thanks for removing at least some of the stuff...
