I never really have to deal with people like that though. I usually get left alone.
That brings back some memories. Good times. ^_^

She's always talking **** to me and one day, We were in the auditorium hanging light fixtures. I drop one, and she yells and laughs, "People like you are the reason why we can't have nice things!" and I retort with, "Really, Well people like you are the reason our chairs smell funny." And After that, she never talked **** again. Just shut her down.
OMG YES!

I'm suspended on Live because supposedly last night I uploaded malicious content to Halo 3...

How the *** can I do that if I'm fileshare and matchmaking banned for no reason.

God *** damn this *** **** *** *** ***.

EDIT: I hung up after being on the phone for an hour and a half... MS team told me after 7 transferred calls they cant unban me, but they are stumped because instead of having a set ban date, it gives me an account information incorrect message....

They don't know how long I'm banned for... How I uploaded malicious content after I'm fileshare banned for no reason...

Also I'm account and console banned... But since it shows an account information incorrect error instead of a ban one, for some reason it will throw that message on any account that was on my 360 and won't allow me to sign in, but when i made a new gamertag... It let me sign into to live, despite the error it showed...

So I have a banned 360 that can connect to live?

Lame... I'm deciding on going to get a new 360 and a new gamertag... Or just selling my console and saying *** it.

Veegie: So he got banned from something he apparently did weeks ago?
Max: Could be.
Max: You realise if I go investigate this and it turns out he has done something bad, that reflects badly on you?
We have a very, very low false positive rate on banning.
If he has ever done anything wrong, then he can't be surprised if at some time he gets banned.
It's not like there is a grace period of 10 days and if we don't catch you within that time then you are safe.
We can do more than you think.

It can only be fixed with anti-biotics, or if it's bad heart surgery.

It's caused by bacteria entering the blood stream =[

I paid SuperModder $100 (Gave him a capture card worth that costs that much), to make a perfect emblem system just like Halomods on my forums. He did it and it works(ed) amazingly. Now, my Admin comes along, installs a "medals" mod, that fucks it the hell up, and doesn't know how to set it back up. I talk to SuperModder, and he's quitting modding/coding, etc.

That's fucking great.

Also, DeToX won't <3 me anymore, because he says all I do is talk to him when I need something, which is partially true, but when I ask to repay him for it (Usually with $), he says "nononono it's k". So, I don't know what the fuck he wants. I guess he just wants me to play with him on Halo. I'm sorry that's so important to you, I'll play with you today if it makes you feel better.

I'm sure you'll then say, "It's not that, it's that you ditch me after saying you will."

And I don't. You're offline when I get done doing what I had planned earlier.

Also, my Admin absolutely fucked my forums in the ass and so everything you do, you get an error, which is fucking fantastic.

ALSO SCHOOL STARTS TOMORROW. Which means I have to go to bed early tonight, get up at 6 in the fucking morning and sit in a classroom for 8 hours.

I have to keep banning sites from accessing my achievement generator because people are dumb. I'm annoyed by the 12 year old kids that make videos on YouTube advertising my script, because then I have to deal with the other 12 year old kids from YouTube, the dumbest fucking place on the entire internet, making stupid shit.

Having school in August isn't a big deal since that is how its been for me forever. Having it the first day is another story though.

I feel bad for the people affected by poorly practiced moderating...

My recommendation

Don't erase posts until you have PM'd the creator what was wrong with it otherwise the poster will feel that his post was unjustly erased and if indeed it was he would have the PM as proof...

A PM was sent clarifying the situation, said member continued to defy rules and staff orders, even after warned. This discussion is over, I'm not going to deal with arguing with people outside of the situation, so don't start.

That sucks sir :( Is this your first time? But it sure does suck...But because I can, Australia's fixing service is great! But that may be due to us having less than 10% of the amount America has :P

You paid someone $100 to do something you could have probably learned yourself?

You offer DeToX money for helping you with modding?

Are you an idiot? Or do you just not have to earn your money, 'cos if you did you wouldn't be throwing it away like that.

Yes, I did. I have no other way of paying him back for everything he helps me with. You don't understand how much he's done for me.

Yes, I have to earn my money. No, I'm not an idiot.

I didn't let him. I sign onto AIM and I get, "Hey! I upgraded your forums from phpBB 3.0 - phpBB 3.2! But, there's alot of errors."

I can't complain much, though. He pays monthly for my domain, 1500GB Server, with a 250GB bandwidth. I don't have to pay a dime. I don't even know the guy, so it's cool. He fixed most of the errors anyways.
