Banned one staff member today, I'm sure there's more that I have missed. I know, I know; it's shocking that the people who have spent weeks of their lives moderating eye-opening internet threads like 'Sexual taboos in Zalanthas' have nothing better to do than monitor websites that discuss their game I couldn't believe it either so here's some tips on how not to lose your character or karma 1)Don't post identifying information or information that can be linked to you 2)Periodically make a new account - you can use the same e-mail address so you don't have to worry about throw-away e-mail 3)If you really feel like causing trouble, pretend to be another PC or GDBer. Above all though, do not ever underestimate the amount of pent-up aggression that the mid-forties computer janitors who run this game have. They literally do not grasp the meaning of 'perspective' or 'taking a 1990s internet roleplaying game too seriously'.

Sounds about right. Luckily for me I don't give a shit and really don't play anymore. So yeah. I'm more than happy to publicly announce my presence here.

Technically it didn't. I created one of the first boards other than the official forums and called it "Armageddon Cheaters Discussion Board' lol. They found it and nipped it in the bud pretty quick. We all posted under our real names though and we all got a slap on the wrist for it. I took the board down after about 3 weeks. A lot of good info was on there though. I remember moontug posting that if you sleep before you fight you do better and if you eat to full and drink to full it helps you in combat.

I created one after the Klestion debacle as it was referred to. This was on Yahoo and I got banned Part Deux for that, even though they had no proof it was me.

Its fucking pathetic how they still try their damnedest to try and control access to information about their game. Seriously, its the year 2013, thirteen years after the millennium, we're in the information age, and you're still trying to control knowledge of a fucking game?
This is just like that faggot that tried to deface every page on the wiki. They're so stuck in the past that it never struck them that during the time between Armageddon's conception and the present there have been safety nets put into place to prevent the destruction of information. Hey, BecauseItsABigStupidJellyfish, you're a big stupid idiot if you think it takes more than half a second to press the "revert change" link for the page you went to deface. gg no re.

Actually it is, only fedora-wearing politically correct dorks moan and complain over the use of language that they dont deem to be pc. He didn't use it in a derogatory manner towards homosexuals, at all. If someone is acting like a fag, call them a fag. This is the real world, over here on this forum. It has nothing to do with gay people.

I see nothing wrong with using the word "faggot", I just find it to be high schoolish.

It is a little, but personally, I'm not gonna get butthurt if someone says it. Unlike the GDB, where he'd probably be banned or warned.

I'm not butthurt, just made a casual observation is all. I'd like to think we our community here could come up with better words than "faggot" however. Perhaps something to the effect of "cum guzzler" would suffice.

You can either be highschool-ish, or you can collect a pension like most of those on the GDB.
