How did you get banned?

I joined Giantbomb for two reasons. Gerstmann, and being banned from every other gaming website for inappropriate comments (lol). What did you say, or post to get banned from another website/forum? (And I mean any website/forum, not only gaming related) Certainly I can't be the only Giantbomber with a condemned past. (Sorry this topic isn't regarding E3 btw) Giantbomb is a great website because it allows us to speak freely without hearing it from uptight mods and censorship. Hell, all of Whiskey Media is great.
 
PS: I'm not new to GB, nor was I recently banned from any websites (I've been part of GB since it was a blog). Above is a look into my past, (5+ years ago) when I was a rambunctious teen. Thought it would be interesting to share some stories around this virtual campfire.

I was never banned from forums.

Power horny mods, killing midgets, burning kittens,burning the note that had the meaning of life on it

i've never been banned from anywhere

Im not socially inempt so I don't get banned from websites.

Why do people always have to be banned before they will join?

I eagerly anticipate your future forum posts...

Seriously, it makes us sound like the forum of gamer exiles.

Yeah thats horrible, its like saying were the dumping ground of the internet, i really hope were not seen like that.

Because then they can come here, create a thread about it and hope that everyone will join them in the "dude, that site sucks for banning you!" nonsense.

I've never been banned and I'm a complete dick.
 
What does that make you.

I got banned for saying league of legends wasn't competitive on another forum.

Not gotten banned, yet.

We're like the island of misfit toys, but for forums.

I'm smart enough to follow the rules on Internet message boards, so I've never been banned.

Wasn't banned. I did close my gamefaqs account around the time I found this site, but it wasn't until long after (when the first ER ended, actually) that I decided to sign up.

You spelled Jeff's last name wrong. I refuse to respond to you.

When I was 12, I got a warning from Neopets for trolling the Roleplaying forum as a kirby. But I was crashing people roleplaying as high school students in relationships. They deserved it. 
 
But then again, it was just a warning, not a ban or anything.

never been banned

@Gunrock: No. It means other sites have taken away our right to speak freely.

There's a big difference between freedom of speech and just plain being a douche. Mods here may be a little more lenient than certain other sites, in that they'll allow a bit of humour and trolls that are so bad they're genuinely hilarious.. but if you post anything totally inappropriate or offensive, you're still going to get banned.

I certainly don't like the idea of Giantbomb becoming the place where the dregs of Gametrailers and Gamespot come.

Yeah, the internet is full of dicks, but I can usually avoid getting banned by following the social conventions of whatever site I am on.  I am at GB because it is awesome, not bacause it is the only option I have because I am a social retard. The fact that I can write the words Fuck or shit or dickwagon is just kind of a bonus.

I killed a man. With a thumbtack.

Geoff Keighly got banned from Gametrailers.

Never been banned. I have banned people though.

As soon as the forums here went up, I went to my GT forums account and used it to post tonnes of threads with the goatse.cx picture in the first post. I used bait thread titles like, "NEW ZELDA WITH GAMEPLAY REVEALED!" and "HALF LIFE 3 OFFICIALLY ANNOUNCED." Apparently I scarred many of the shit eating fuck heads that would frequent those forums.

If you've been banned from every other gaming website, then we probably don't want you here either.

Have never been banned from a site. No idea why people brag about being banned.

These are the only forums I've used.

never got banned, dog bro.

Remember that Jeff/Ryan Cannibal Fan Fiction from a while back? 
 
I wrote it. That's how I got banned.

I've never been banned from anything. Maybe it's because I never actually hit Post Reply on two thirds of the things I type out. Or maybe it's my rugged good looks and rayon-smooth charm. Probably both.

You have no free speech on the internet.

I tend to be impulsive, especially on the internet.

Iz easy dude! Dunt say stupid and/or offensive shit and never get ban!Work 4 meee.

I was never banned but I got in trouble on gamespot a couple times. A couple time for using swear words hidden in text like s*** or shite. Sometimes I would describe a character as a total dick and get in trouble for that. And once for indirectly insulting someone by disagreeing with them on some game. I can't even remember anymore. I know it wasn't outlandish, it was just an opinion and the kid flipped shit over my disagreement and I got some message about how I have been suspended for starting up a fight or something.

Honestly though I didn't come here to escape, I just feel everyone here is far more intellectual and nice here. Also the form of news and info is delivered in a way better and more humorous form. This is overall a better site.
