Guest BionicRedneck Report post Posted July 19, 2002 Coz he doesn't like Test? or Bradshaw??? seriously, people like Jerome Drake who are purposely dicks, and start threads like "POOP" should be banned, not SmarkZone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bob_barron Report post Posted July 19, 2002 Why was smarkzone banned?? I mean yea he was a jackass and a moron but can you really be banned for that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest BionicRedneck Report post Posted July 19, 2002 SmarkZone had some fucked up opinions (Booker T sucks, Test/Bradshaw rule etc.) but he actually backed them up with reasons. "I mean yea he was a jackass and a moron but can you really be banned for that?" Exactly. There should be a hell of a lot more people banned, if you can get banned for being a Jackass.

Guest BionicRedneck Report post Posted July 19, 2002 people like Jerome Drake who are purposely dicks, and start threads like "POOP" should be banned guess, I spoke to soon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bob_barron Report post Posted July 19, 2002 So why was Jerome Drake banned? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest TestKick Report post Posted July 19, 2002 SmarkZone has made some good points saying why he doesn't agree with the majority... but he included many insults in his posts, and garbage like "Booker T should tear his quad, get his ass kicked, yadda yadda" after the Nash incident. I don't if that's why he was banned... but that would be a reason to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest papacita Report post Posted July 19, 2002 SmarkZone has made some good points saying why he doesn't agree with the majority... but he included many insults in his posts, and garbage like "Booker T should tear his quad, get his ass kicked, yadda yadda" after the Nash incident. I don't if that's why he was banned... but that would be a reason to. By that reasoning, everyone who laughed at Nash's injury should be banned too. That's not a good reason for banning anyone.

Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Report post Posted July 19, 2002 Drake got a one time only warning from Dr. Tom I received a complaint in my PM about Drake yesterday...so I sent it to Tom to look into. He looked...he obviously didn't like what he found...so he's gone. I don't know why Smarkzone was banned. However...since he IS banned any other persona that pops up from him will be as well...until such time that the mod responsible comes up with a reason why he should be reinstated.

Guest BionicRedneck Report post Posted July 19, 2002 no offence, but i think it sucks that SmarkZone got banned. I mean, he wasn't my favourite person, but he didn't do anything wrong IMO. There are many more worthy candidates for banning than him. Thanks for explaining the situation though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest TestKick Report post Posted July 20, 2002 Everyone was laughing at the circumstances around Nash's injury... nobody was posting about how it would be cool if Nash tore his quad. Like I also said, he insulted posters here many times... and that is flaming. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kahran Ramsus Report post Posted July 20, 2002 SmarkZone was banned for some hateful comments that went beyond just flaming. The money comments were just the icing on the cake. The fact that he was an intelligent and insightful poster at times, made it far more difficult than if he was just an idiot. But I had to make a call, and I stand by it. I wish they were all as easy as BradshawtheHoss and company. I was considering letting him back, before he acted like a child under a new name, calling me a Nazi and basically issuing an open challenge to the mods to attempt to get rid of him for good. I do believe in second chances, so he might get one in the future if he is willing to conduct himself more appropriately. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Report post Posted July 20, 2002 After the way he acted today...I feel no second chance is warranted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest DrTom Report post Posted July 20, 2002 I got a couple other PM complaints about Drake, too. Another one last night, and one more this morning before I banned him while slogging thru a slow morning at work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest BionicRedneck Report post Posted July 20, 2002 After the way he acted today...I feel no second chance is warranted. I would agree... It's becoming increasingly hard to defend him when he acts like a bitch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
