it's very easy not to get banned- just follow the rules.
I do, most of the time. Badspot has a personal grudge against us though, especially Robo. For him, something people do every day on the forum results in a permanent ban.
Here; he jokingly called a forum member fat:
How are your ribs visible but you still have mantits and a flab-ass gut?
User was banned for this post
I mean, yeah, he could have said it nicer, but there's no way you can't deny that a regular forum member wouldn't have been banned for this, and if they were it would not be permanent. It's not even flaming.
i don't understand why you feel the need to shell out so much cash just to ensure you stay on the forums.
Why not? 40*20 = $800. $800 over 6 years of playing this game comes out to $133 a year, or $11 a month. That's the subscription fee for Robo Noob and I to play this game. To play World of Warcraft, we each pay $15 a month and neither of us open the game, ever. It seems worth it to me.
