[04:43:41] goom: great community
[04:43:45] goom: why were you banned anyways?
[04:44:25] goom: 215 bad karma?
[04:44:42] Yorick Brown: My 2nd banning actually.
[04:44:48] goom: for what?
[04:45:22] Yorick Brown: First time, I blew up at this adminstrator for editing a post of mine. Instead of being more understanding
[04:45:33] Yorick Brown: he banned me outright. I pleaded and came back
[04:45:44] goom: which admin? esplin?
[04:45:48] goom: rich?
[04:45:53] Yorick Brown: I have no idea why I was banned this second time around. Ever met someone named Morfowt
[04:46:09] Yorick Brown: It was phoenix. But in between bannings, we became friends
[04:46:10] goom: yeah i've talked on skype with him
[04:46:15] goom: he's nice
[04:46:22] Yorick Brown: This 2nd banning was probably Esplin's doing
[04:46:34] goom: you probably got banned the second time for making another account
[04:46:41] goom: what was your old account's name?
[04:46:46] goom: i see just 'yorick'
[04:46:52] Yorick Brown: No. Can't do that. They block IP addresses
[04:47:07] Yorick Brown: That was my old account
[04:47:35] Yorick Brown: He was a good froend of Morfowt and I hated him. You should see how I used to tongue lash him.
[04:47:46] Yorick Brown: friend
[04:48:04] Yorick Brown: I'm a very blunt person and I can't stand ignorant fools like him.
[04:48:15] Yorick Brown: They kpet excusing his idiocy: 'He'
[04:48:32] goom: oh ok
[04:48:34] Yorick Brown: 'He's from China! Another culture! Give him a break!'
[04:48:44] Yorick Brown: 'He's only 14! He's very naive!'
[04:48:47] Yorick Brown: kept
[04:49:59] goom: it doesnt look like your banned
[04:50:04] goom: is there a special ranking for banned members?
[04:50:11] goom: or can you just not log in?
[04:50:45] Yorick Brown: Strangest thing. Just now I was able to scan the forum. When I wondered if I was unbanned and logged back in...
[04:50:58] Yorick Brown: I couldn't go anywhere. They reminded me I was banned
[04:52:21] goom: ah
[04:52:34] Yorick Brown: Did they ever tell you what went on here about two months ago that increased the security for chat rooms?
[04:55:13] goom: no?
[04:55:23] goom: what happened?
[04:55:28] Yorick Brown: Okay then. Don't worry about it.
[04:55:42] Yorick Brown: I don't know what happened. That'
[04:55:47] Yorick Brown: s's why I was asking
[04:56:03] Yorick Brown: It was nice talking to you. I'l see you later
[04:56:04] goom: oh how was the security increased?

Yeah that is weird. It says he was active early this morning (my time) but he's still banned. Maybe it did that because he was on the chat?

Nice to see that Yorick is taking the ban well at least.

He's an alright guy, he just needs to realize that you can't openly flame members every chance you get and get away with it.

Yeah, he went a little overboard, and refused to accept that he was in the wrong.

But that does not make him immune to my friendship. :)

I like to think that he was a severely misguided young man with anger issues and a major need for attention at the expense of others.

I LIKE to think that.  :P

He's NOSEY, too! Jeeze.
The universe is, instant by instant, re-created anew. There is, in truth, no Past, only a memory of the Past. Blink your eyes, and the world you see next did not exist when you closed them. The only appropriate state of the mind is surprise. The only appropriate state of the heart is joy. The sky you see now, you have never seen before. The perfect moment is now. Be glad of it.
