[Done! â€"Snarky]

Yes, I want to take a break from forums :D.

[Done! â€"Snarky]

Well, I haven't ever been banned from the AGS forums as far as I recall, so let's consider this.
One one hand being banned might just get me to stop refreshing the forum constantly so that would save energy and time and possibly the whole planet, but then what will I do with my life? Stare at a wall? Hmm, on second thought I might not want to ge baaAAAAAIIEEEEE~!!!

[Done! â€"Snarky]

*Puts on safetygoggles*

Let's do this! 8-)

[See you on the other side! â€"Snarky]

This could be great for productivity.

[Don't let us down! â€"Snarky]

You don't have the guts to ban me.

[All I ever needed was an excuse! â€"Snarky]

Dave made me do it.
:sad:

[Excuses, excuses!]

I haven't written a line of code since the 31st May, PUNISH ME!!!

[We have such sights to show you! ... The first to have taken the trip to banland should be returning right about now. Maybe they have some exciting testimony about it?]

I tend to ragequit with deleting everything... Been trying for over a decade now, but no - just cannot control it... Maybe the ancient Chinese ban therapy can cure this annoying habit?

I posted an NSFW image. I should be banned now. Thanks.

[To the banister with you!]

QuoteGo on, do it! I dare you!

At first I was tempted to try it but then I chickened out.

[Mmm! Creamy chicken!]

Snarky, you flatulent son of a-

[Just for that you're getting an "extra" 12 hours! (That's 24 hours from now.)]

I pressed the button and it did nothing!

[Do not question Big Red Button]

No! Not Ryan Timoothy! He's too pretty to survive prison! Take me instead!! :shocked:

[Why not both?]

No, Ponch!  Don't do it!  I mean ....shit!  I posted again! 8-0

[Let's define "sucker for punishment"...]

Are you sure you want to do this? I mean, I have some powerful fr...Ahh who am i kidding? I'm a game maker, I don't have any friends! :-D

[Friends do not let friends post to The Forbidden Thread.]

Well, prison was tough. I had to join a gang to keep my virtue. I had to do a lot of things in there, to be honest. Do I regret shanking Creamy in the shower on the orders of gameboy (who I'm pretty sure was acting on the orders of Tzachs, who is running their criminal syndicate from outside the prison)? Sure. Do I regret selling Ryan Timoothy to Stupot for a carton of smokes? Yes. But you do what you have to do to survive in there. :=

[What, I gotta deal with recidivism as well?]

Was I banned? I don't know. I somehow skipped a day and didn't even check the forums. Did banning me make me miss a day in my life or something? Thank-you Ponch for trying to catch the bullet for me but next time sell me for at least two cartons because I'm worth more than one piddly carton.

[Let's see if you notice this.]

hey snarky, I always enjoy talking to you, why don't you reply to me here and don't edit around in my posts? <3

[Who bans the banners?]

Ban me for two weeks if you like Snarky. I'm going on holiday. 8-)

[Don't tempt me!]

I... am Frodo... the RING BEARER!

I have braved stab wounds from Ring Wraiths.  I have braved poison from Shelob.  I have carried the burden of the One Ring.  I have seen unimaginable horrors that would destroy a lesser hobbit. 

A simple ban?  HA!  Bring it on.  :tongue:

[Do not meddle in the threads of mods, for they are subtle and quick to ban you.]

Dear moving thread. My dog just nipped at someone today while I was out walking. She's never bit anyone before. It was an old man walking with his wife. He didn't show me the wound nor did I ask, I was mostly frozen with shock and fear of what would happen next. I was focused mostly on my dog as once I processed what was going on, I held her mouth shut looking into her eyes like she was in some serious shit. He was holding his hand so I had to ask him if she bit him and he said she did... and that he was bleeding. He asked where I am living now so in case he needs to come back if anything comes of the wound. I didn't even see it happen. Girlfriend and I were standing on the sidewalk talking to a woman we know and my dog jumped at the man who was quietly walking towards us from behind. My dog is super playful and oftentimes likes to jump on people she's playing with, so since my back was turned that's what I thought it was, until I saw him holding his hand. Now I realize she definitely shouldn't be jumping at people and it's my fault I've allowed her to continue this as I roughhouse with her a lot, and now I feel I may have to tone it down. I also don't know how to treat this and I'm fearful of what the future may bring. At least I know that he's a nice man, as he used to live 2 houses down from me while growing up and he was always friendly. Makes me start to believe those old tales of dobermans going vicious with age.

[It's the most dangerous thread of all: Moving Ban Thread!]

An uncle of mine, great dog lover, was in a similar situation, and decided the dog had to be put down. If a dog can't be controlled and attacks people, that's just not tolerable.

And since this post puts me off the forum for the next 24 hours, I'm locking the thread in the mean time.

Oh moving ban thread... I am very upset! Shortly after I posted that message of my dog, my girlfriend had made mention of the old man bending down kinda taunting her behind my back with his hand outreached, with a look that said "what's wrong with you". Since my back was turned to the whole event I didn't know these details and since she hadn't mentioned them immediately, I simply assumed he was walking by ignoring the dog and she decided "hey, I'm gonna play with him". Then the day after the supposed attack the doorbell rings with some government worker at the door. She handed me some kind of rabies quarantine contract saying I can't give the dog away, put her down or let her out of the house for 10 days, aside from going in the backyard to do her business - but she must be leashed. I was furious! Why would you taunt a dog with your hand out and then get upset when it jumps at you?

Then to make matters worse, today my girlfriend and I started talking about it once again and she elaborates even further on the actual distance he had gotten to her. In this conversation she suddenly had said "he got in her face" and of course I say "woah, I didn't know this, you didn't say this! How close is: in her face?" and she moves her face a couple inches away from mine and says "like this". On a side-note: I've obviously learned that my girlfriend isn't very good as an eye witness unless you ask for specific details or she won't give them. Originally she had said he bent down kind of taunting her, and I think any person would assume any sane person would be like 6 feet away or something. But no. He got right in her damn face. All behind my back.

Ugh. I'm furious with this man. Now my dog is a recorded "biter / scratcher" (the government lady had said a scratch or bite is treated the same way, since I told her that neither girlfriend or friend saw her bite him, only that she jumped at him - and she loves to paw). It's not like any of us could see a wound on his hand. If she does it again, it'll make her look like a possible threat when all she wants to do is play! She's a good god damn dog and that man is obviously an asshole. I hope to hell he doesn't try to sue me. That explains now why the friend we were talking to on the sidewalk had said "I will be your witness if anything comes of this", but I was confused with what she meant since I thought my dog randomly nipped at him. Maybe I was too caught up in the moment to hear what either of them were saying to me, or it was this woman's strong Dutch accent, I don't know. Once the quarantine is up, I have to get her vaccinated for rabies, and also pay to have her registered with the town (things I am legally supposed to do as a dog owner, but most people I know don't do this crap), but now I have to because some old man wanted to taunt my dog and then call the government after she wanted to play and possibly hurt him.

You need to ban me. I need a break from life.
