View Full Version : So...
So Ven, one of PSB's good posters, was banned for having something about Words in his signature? Did someone in power warn him to take it off? I say bring him back. Because that's a bullshit move.

Eh. I don't really care much. Whoever did it did it because he felt the need.

Jak banned him for putting offensive content in his signature. Dave clearly stated that such content is not allowed on the forums.
Jak also pointed out that the ban would be lifted as soon as Derek agreed to remove the offensive content. Although I think a straight banning was a bit odd a simple warning would have sufficed, Jak *did* point out that he doesn't have access to edit the signature directly.

The stright up ban got me. Like you said, a warn would've been ten times better, then if he still didn't comply I'd say ban. But one slip up and you get banned? Not necessary I say :monster:

Well, Jak didn't want shit so he outright banned him. When he decides to take the stuff out if his sig, he'll be unbanned and everything will go back to normal.

Or maybe Dave will change something.

Thank you Words, I am looking into this and taking the appropriate actions. As of now, he is unbanned with the WoI information taken out of his signature. He is also being "watched" for now.
I would like to inform everyone that harassment, in any form, is a very touch subject. As you know, we like to kid from time to time, but when asked not to, YOU MUST COMPLY WITH THE REQUEST. If you have
Also, using these forums and their services as a replacement for a MSN drama or so is NO exception to the rules. Any harassment is not tolerated, especially (to say the least) when a member requests you to stop. No one is above PSB law.
Words could have started it, or Ven could have. That is unknown to me and I care not to know. All I know is it was continued at PSB when it is against the rules, and it was Words that apparently asked for it to stop. I can't go into anymore detail due to privacy reasons.
I give great kudos to Jak for his actions in this case. It prevented anymore issues from arising, until s Administrators could investigate the case.

I've banned Ven and left in the reason that theres no need for his signature and he can email me when he is willing to remove it, untill then hes banned. I mean I would remove it myself but I dont have any permissions haha.
A warning was given, via Email. Banning isn't permanent, just a temporary solution so abuse won't continue.
I never recieved a warning via E-mail. :monster:

Since vBulletin can't track that, I'll never know the truth if you did or didn't... :(
I swear I didn't. Thought I might not have been notified since I recently changed emails, and I logged into the old email account and nothing was there.

Actually, a quick glance will show all actions of a harassing nature (both on PSB and off) were on Derek's (Ven, not the admin) behalf, and Derek alone, unless some statement to the contrary can be provided.

Because it was the right thing to do.
Wait, why's Ven banned again?
You don't honestly think such light dramaz and such discreet flaming earns a permaban, do you? xD
I was the one who took the ban hammer this time.

Use the infraction system, straight up banning is unwise, especially with a community of this size.
