You specifically invited discussion on this banning in your triumphant "I banned Oski" announcement. You did say the discussion should go in the Faq thread, but I don't want to clutter it.

Suffice it to say, you could not justify the banning on the basis you state. I would easily prove you wrong.

The baby-boy Karak who reported, actually came at this bro for no reason. 1300 posts into that thread (with only a handful being mine) Karak trolled me like the punk he is and I had not come close to being hostile or disrespectful to anyone.(Interestingly enough he had his post erased after I got banned. Nice.)

After that, little men came after me with their little potshots and I merely responded. I even bowed out of the thread for a day, but returned when I saw how boring it was in my absence.

This is why I decided that Nut Low was the answer, as Oski, just appearing in a thread constitutes "trolling" under your new MicroClark standards. I was saving myself, you, the forum and the internet with my sacrificial move to Nut Low.

Alas, now Nut Low is High and Dry.

Anyhow, as far as Oski goes, if people abided by the rules and didn't troll me endlessly by taking their little potshots at me, I wouldn't go after them. It's that simple. Go show me an instance where I attacked someone without getting attack. If you don't come at me, I get along fine with everyone. Just ask my grandson Spaulding! He and I are regular pals.

Hell no. Even I have limits.

It's the one place on the forum where making overly verbose arguments and casting aspersions upon people's characters is encouraged..

Then why do all the Poggers get butthurt so easily when posting outside the game?

Anyhow, it does sound neat-o, but I am scared of SKYPE and all that. Plus, (believe it or not) I can't make the time commitment since my schedule is so inconsistent.

Goodness you love to type.

The one non-SE game I played was a joyous parade of butthurt. The highlight was a narrowly avoided emo catastophe, 'if you're a wolf I swear we're done forever'. The guy in question ended up being a villager. Phew.

A shame. Maybe another time.

Yep. And I've been on my Blackberry all night (I hope its not sore in the morning).

Listen, I'm just busting your balls. You run a good forum and I don't really care about getting banned here and there. I did think it would have been cool if a mod would have given me a warning in the PSU thread, especially since I was not initiating conflicts AND was avoiding "legal talk" most of the time.

It is true that every time a mod pm'd me to cool it in the past, I replied respectfully and complied.

Don't those games take a week or so?

Yes but people dip in and out, it's not an intensive game.

Its fine to not post for a whole day if necessary.

Nut Low

BASaint for encouraging Oski to come anywhere near POG. don't do that to me bro.

i'd looove to see him interact with pog regs. plus i think he'd be good at the game.

BASaint I've been drinking my 2% lately. You better be on your game come Thursday.

Because we have this nice outlet for that sort of thing, and perhaps in part as a consequence of that we have no need to be *******s most of the time.

LOL @ oski's schedule being "inconsistent." Pretty sure he consistently posts tl;dr rants here like every day.

also, you never have to Skype anyone. Just wait for them to Skype you, then reply.

Let me tell you this as a soccer obsessed Irishman - the above is pure bull****. There are some shining lights amongst the soccer contingent on this forum, but overall it's pure AIDS. And I don't mean early stage either.

yeah i sorta thought Oski was kidding there. or at least hoped he was.

i do enjoy Bo.bbo being in there though, serious or not.

Micronesia is brilliant

all three vigs should go for OSKI

Oski,

You're a weirdo

I'll do my best until the poggers FPS kicks in and we get a triple reverse flea flicker double barrelled seer fake reveal.

Then i'll Smeic it up.

hey now

you just don't know how to play this game that's all

I feel like the word oski should be a verb now.
