yea he won't be banned long.
the issue I have with the whole thing is tony didn't actually break any rules. the only rule he could have broken was
"10. No pyramid/referral schemes - No one is going to give you money or an iPod/flatscreeen monitor/xbox 360/whatever just for getting people to click on some crappy link. It's a scam to get you to spam forums for them. Stop posting this crap. "
unless I'm mistaken, asking for money doesn't apply to this rule.
i knew it was against the rules but I wasn't about to warn him about it tho lol
rule 10 doesn't apply here
