Congratulations, you know absolutely nothing about Nazi Germany. People would say it would be difficult to pass through all those years of schooling without actually learning just a teeny bit of history, but people would be wrong.

In no universe does bad customer service = slaughtering of millions. In no universe does lacking people skills = genocide. The word is thrown around enough, you don't have to be ignorant enough to pick up the banner and throw it around yourself.

It wasn't an attempt at humor.

PS, stop being a literal, history Nazi.

How about Gestapo(sp) attitude? Would that have been a better choice for him to use?

Maybe you're right, it's obvious you aren't actually sure what humor is so it probably shouldn't be considered an attempt.

Hey, let's all revel in our ignorance! Woohoo!

Firefly · 2004-01-22, 12:14 PM

I'm sure if we abuse the term Gestapo, the history Nazi will come down on us like the Gestapo.

"No, Majik, the Gestapo was a secret police. In no universe does banning = the arrest of people for looking at someone wrong. In no universe does taunting a CSR = arresting, murdering and charging with treason the innocent."

PS, I know what humor is. You aren't it.

Jubei · 2004-01-22, 12:14 PM

take it from a friend bro...

Based on your track record that would make me the funniest man on earth.

Firefly · 2004-01-22, 12:49 PM

Based on my track record? I'm guessing you think you know what my track record is, like you went back and looked at all my posts... stalker, anyone?

No, let's see. I don't find amusement in simpleton crap. If your sense of humor walks the line of honking in tunnels and teasing dogs with a laser pointer on the floor, then you're correct. I don't find it humorous.

Being a sarcastic cynical bastard, however, and mocking satirical comments that redirect stupidity on my target, however. That's hilarious to me. Once you gain a jaded view of the warped world we live in, when you've seen humanity at its "finest"... then come talk to me.

Wow, how incredibly worldly you are. I was obviously way off base about you, you're a regular renaissance man.
The problem is redirecting stupidity on yourself (odd since I wouldn't think you'd be your own target, but to each his own), which seems to be your talent indeed. It doesn't take much effort or intelligence to be an ignorant ass, and often times people like to take the easy route. How's it working out for you?
In the meantime, thanks for the bedtime stories about the tunnels and dogs. Fascinating stuff with absolutely no relation to anything. I find little surprising about that as well, when people don't have much to say that seems to be the time they can't keep their traps shut.

Um.. Madcow - I understood everything Firefly said, in the context he meant it. Not hard if you're smart enough to understand basic sarcasm.

Firefly · 2004-01-22, 02:18 PM

Some people enjoy being the minority, Kaymon.

All I have wanted was an explanation. That is all, and to know when I can use my account, because at the moment I have not gotten any emails from SOE other than a reply to an email I sent to spork about the situation, he said nothing other than to stop posting and let him handle it. I don't care what happens to Dan, I just want to know why I was suspended and why I couldn't talk to his lead when he had the ability to talk to him. I sent an email off and got no reply, his lead was there and banned me, why couldn't I talk to that person?

I'm not looking for attention, SOE only listens if you put it out in the public. I simply want an explanation.

I have nothing against DanB except for the fact that he wouldn't let me talk to his Lead, I was pissed off Ok? I wanted to use my account. Now I don't care about getting back my account, I just want to know why it happened. Supposedly you're supposed to get an email from SOE explaining it which I did not.

I was told I was suspended because of my character name, that could mean ANYTHING.

Spork has said nothing other than to stop posting about it, Tom has said nothing, Dan has said nothing, SOE has said nothing.

Firefly · 2004-01-22, 03:38 PM

Sporkfire works for SOE. Therefore if Sporkfire says he's handling it, then SOE's official stance is "It's being handled", via the Planetside subordinate. Planetside is a subordinate branch of SOE, yes? Spork works for (or is the point-of-contact) for Planetside, yes?

That's your answer from SOE. If you're expecting the CEO of SOE to say "Yeah DanB is a pud and Tom Jones The Leader-Guy was on his potty break so he couldnt talk to you", then keep on keepin' on, roger that hooah?

Why are they getting pissed when you fucking pay to play this game. There childish little brats if they cant stand a stupid little name mentioning a damn acronym that describes a fucking one of there jobs. Oh no whats next you cant use the admin of death or the developer from hell. What are they going ot do when another crt or admin or whatever come and play and are inspired to make a name about it. Ban the guy who jsut spent atleast 50-200 dollars to play there damn game just to kick him for something. They dont have a damn copy right on it and its something that many people have been. Who cares what teh point of hte name is. It only means something if there childish enough to act like it matters. ITs not like it cant be an apropriate name for a hacker character or anything.

There is no reason for so called profesionals running an online game for a major company to act like that. This is a game!

Just my opinion!

Most of the time i dissagree with you but you hit the nail on the head this time, if they have a problem with the name they should have just told him and gave him an option not banned him, this banning with no warning stuff is crazy and I'm seeing alot more of it in MMOGs oh well im sure his account will get reinstated(sp?) but the fact of the matter is this moderator or whatever he is was out of line and overreacted. (two r's?)

too lazy to spell check.
