This is a formal petition to end the ban placed upon NSFCD user "Custom." NSFCD has become dull as poop since his formal banning, and the only way to fix this would be to bring him back.
It's okay, Silverhawk79. It is all going to be okay. Just lift the ban on Custom, and everything will be great again.

Uh, exactly what happened here? Did Custom do some kind of thing that is beyond more stupid than Bear does all the time?

Please get rid of bear.
I say you ban everyone under 18.
But not me!
That counts for something!

it's actually really funny that I come into this thread after forgetting about you guys for like a week and you're still whining about me in something entirely irrelevant.
i was vaguely considering the idea of just rarely posting but poop like this keeps me inspired to be here more often
so yeah disgaea fag can go cry blood and masturbate to his animu porn, I ain't leavin'.

Well, on the good side, your existence proves my point: Silver doesn't care what happens here.
He has a point. And what is the meaning of this forum again? All im seeing is a group of people who are falling into disarray with neglect from a leader. Look at what has happened, if some of you who have been here for a long time actually realize this and aren't denying the fact its falling down the tubes. I may not have been here the whole time, but i've seen plenty of things hit rock bottom. Its been trollfest trollfest, random ban, restore, trollfest trollfest trollfest and recycles all over again, no real reasonable point to it.
This is what you call a nostalgic replacement of Nsider? Check again. You're far off the map from where you think you are. Sure wasn't like this 2 years ago when i came here.
trollfest?
I'll be blunt:
You guys really do not know what trolling is if you think that a vast majority of what this forum has to offer is trolling.
Also the cycle you mention just doesn't make any sense. Especially considering my earlier point and the fact that the banning of Custom is the first ban we've had in quite a while. It wasn't "random" either. He was making posts that were huge in size, scrolling, giant, and red. Frankly I'm surprised that Coasterkid wasn't banned because he was doing it too, but thankfully he wasn't.
There is no cycle.
All I see here are a couple of nerds once again blowing things out of proportion. OH NO ROCK BOTTOM.

Ok, maybe not a trollfest, but several of them are butting heads. And again, look at what happened when Bear didn't get banned. Was that surprising also? Then again i could say Bear is far worse. When it comes to control of the forum its not some of the people only, its Silver. Yeah let people have their fun but only ban someone when they piss you off?

I was banned temporarily, but Custom was able to persuade Silver into letting me back. If you read the "I'm Offended" thread, Mack LEGITIMATELY states that the moderators reserve the right to ban a user for whatever reason ("piss off a moderator") even if said user isn't breaking any of the rules. This is complete bullpoop and, for the most part, really points to Custom's banning as being done on the grounds of pure individual contempt.

But this guy's got it exactly. As much as we love having Custom around, it wasn't too big of a surprise with the absurdity of the posts we were seeing from him. I don't mind having any of these around because they can actually at times hold intelligent discussions about games, etc. which is what we've been trying to hold onto since the time when we were a replacement NSider. It's not that way anymore, but we still like talking about gaming, because that's the common ground we all came from.
Seriously guys, stop whining about it. Custom would be allowed here if he just behaved himself, but obviously the mods were getting a little too tired of scrolling down about two feet of useless crap just to see any post below his.

We reserve that right, Coaster, as we provide the service. Especially seeing as the service is free. It's not unfair at all. Walk into your fast food joint of choice and act the ass: they can refuse service. As the manager of a museum, I've kicked out *paying customers* for things they may deem arbitrary (ie. using flash in their photos). We have that discretion and I'll be darned if we don't use it.
What Mack's saying is that you don't really have a right to be here, that is to say, absolutely nothing in the world is granting you permission to use the forums other than the administration's indifference.
Silver doesn't HAVE to run this place, y'know. He pays for this place out of his own pocket for the benefit of all of us, so he can do whatever he wants for it. If he wants to pay for it to allow only three specific people to use it, he could do that as well. If he wants to pay for it to allow anyone at all to do what they please, he can do that too. It's his choice. But he's at the middle ground. He pays for this place so that people he tolerates can use it. And he just doesn't tolerate the bullpoop you guys are giving him.
Customers will just go to another proprietor if the one they go to fails to meet their requirements.

Then leave. Seriously. This stupid doomsday nay-saying bullpoop drives me absolutely nuts. If you feel that this place is so poopty, has gone so far down the tubes, and has no reasonable point, stop coming.
Why should I have to listen to you ninny and moan if you don't think there is a point to being here?
There is a point to being here for many of us, and it doesn't simply involve being an nsider replacement. You think we're being deluded? Into what, exactly?
You know what I think we have? A small internet community. It's got a good number of people who share a common background from Nsider. Most, if not all, love video games.
Yeah, we intercourse around and ninny at eachother and shake our internet fists in consternation. People get banned and invited back, people leave forever for a few months, people log off for a day and come back two years later. This is fine.
What's not fine is this bullpoop right here, were some pretentious vagina cleaning device comes in to insult everyone and expects his word to be accepted as some kind of truth from God.
You know what I'm seeing? Someone who thinks his opinion is worth a lot more than it actually is. Check again. You're far off the map from where you think you are.
You are free to go.
I still like Silver...
just shorten custom's ban to something reasonable or something. Maybe until sometime next week?
fair compromise right?
slap his wrist again and tell him no to the giant walls of red scrolling text and we'll be good

Or put him on "Moderated" status for a while. Then if he behaves, make it like a probation; he does one thing wrong, he's gone. But if he keeps his act together, he can stay.
How long was he banned for?

Not long enough for this much of a ninnyfit.
I understand why he was banned, but I still miss having him around.
I hope he is allowed back in the not-too-distant future. I'm not going to make any demands, though. If I need a daily dose of Custom I can go to his Tumblr.

This is nothing new; the forum has been in a state of slow atrophy pretty much since Metroid!Fucker decided to throw a temper tantrum and Silver was forced to create this place as a replacement. There was a brief period of stagnation (as opposed to decay) in between that point and the point when Snorkel sold us out. From there, it was pretty much a long, slow slide downward, especially once Vaatix left.
The stupidity has always been here and has never left: in the beginning it was M!F, Lamemaster, and several other 14 year-old boys who projected an aura of faux-niceness while being generally poopty moderators and administrators. It has since morphed into several 16 through 18 year-old boys who post walls of giant red text, horrible punctuation, etc. for no other purpose than to 'joke around' or get a rise out of people.
You have two choices when dealing with these people: the method that I used to use and Silver's method. With my method, you give a painful slap on the wrist followed by a (almost) no-exceptions permaban. Eliminates the poop holes and retards pretty quickly, but it reduces the amount of forum traffic, and everyone (correctly) accuses you of being Orwellian. And in an Internet with thousands of Nintendo or VG forums, your chances of getting a large influx of new, well-behaved members to replace the ones you banned are very remote unless you have some kind of unique killer app or feature that no one else has.
Silver's method is the Almost-Infinite Second Chance Method, where you ban people, cave to the forum whenever they start whining that a ban is too long, and then scratch your head and wonder why the forum is filled with poop again once the people at fault are unbanned. Lets you keep a reasonable amount of traffic, but the amount of good or even kinda-vaguely-funny to crappy posts ratio drops dramatically.
The forum is effectively darned if you do, darned if you don't.

Because the people are whiners who don't understand that the person you banned did anything wrong, and they're too blind to see the stupidity of their posts. I don't know why you give in to all the whining, because the fans of the problem user are usually just as bad as the user himself. So should you ban all of them? Absolutely not. Leave the one user banned (Why the intercourse would you shorten it) and just say "Let this be a lesson to all of you". You don't have to give in.
