I was suspended for two weeks for calling everyone in a particular topic the "other" F-word. It was so worth it.

You have the gall to suggest that I would use my grandmother's illness in such fashion? She was there to give me the ring my grandfather gave her the day he left for the war before his ship was lost at sea. I planned to ask Mercedes to marry me that day.

I used to be in a clan on Ghost Recon (actually won a pretty big league, got free copies of the crappy Ghost Recon 2), I must have been around 13 years old and I insulted some idiots on a forum and they threatened to track me down and break my legs, started harassing the mods for my IP address.

They were all 30+ years old. Lol.

Sure. I always try to be respectful and courteous, but if some smart ass starts mouthing off to me for no reason, I'm going to jab back. It's generally a bad thing to do, because when you start throwing elbows online, everybody jumps on the pile and it just turns into a big mess and then the mods come in with ban threats and all.

But I still can't help it.

I've been given a warning once, but I haven't been posting that much this year to really get myself in trouble.

Seeing that your avatar is Big the Cat--I find this rather amusing.

Yes. On the Twilight Princess Social Board on GFAQs, way way back before TP came out, there was a user who insisted on posting in every single topic with a reall awful, superior attitude. He was way into bass guitars and insisted that bass made every song come together, like it was the glue that allowed the earth to continue rotating. In threads which would have a matter of opinion (like "Hey, I saw a movie today, it was really good!"), he would often disagree for the sake of it and make fun of the topic creator.

Eventually I got pretty sick of his constant spewing of bullshit and I called him out on it. Specifically, I called him an elitest, which was the most grave insult that you could hurl on these boards. It went farther than that, but he ended up getting really pissy, and then a few days later making a topic asking if he really was, and saying he was sorry, that he was having money problems and needed a place to vent sometimes, how we were all his best friends, so on and so forth.

He continued to be a prick, so I left. On the request of some of the people who I still talk to from the board, I visited a community that consisted of members of the Twilight Princess Social Board, and the first thing I saw was a drawing thread (you know, "Post and I'll draw you!"), and this fucker had posted in there saying, "I demand a ridiculous bass solo!" This was late last year.

So I never went back to that place. Also I was 11.

I've seen my fair share during previous stints as a mod and then admin on a very small, but dedicated forum. It was more like trying to manage a really weird and dysfunctional family. I walked away from that 4 years ago and went straight here. The only drama I see here is the occasionally snarky rebuttal or the odd angry dude here and there, but as far as the internet goes, things have been pretty tame for a while.

How do you guys say something that causes people to PM you? I wish I had that effect on people....or even just the ladies...

I'm sure I've been involved with drama at some point but I've outgrown it for the most part and find watching it unfold a lot more fun.

Haha, I got into it with this one guy in a topic, (nothing too major), and it went to PM, and quickly turned into him accusing me of being unable to accept the advice of other people at my career-job and I was an asshole because of it. Keep in mind that all I ever told him was my career, and then it basically devolved into that somehow.

Nothing that I'd say was serious, had someone that seemed genuinely angry with me and kept calling me a bitch for not finding Zac Efron attractive.

I want to agree with you but this other mod might ban me for personally insulting that guy! 
If only I were a mod(oh god no) then I could insult everyone I wanted without anybody being able to do anything about it, just like he does.  
I strive to be like him!

Linked to a funny image in a fairly large forum I used to use, turns out they had hotlinking prevention though and turned the image into goatse. I got IP banned from the website and my account deleted. I emailed the site owner to explain, we ended up arguing for about 3 emails but then he eventually removed the ban and I made a new account. I also got temporary bans on that website all the time but they were no fun police.

@pyromagnestir:

It's not my fault that Mercedes loved me. I tried to make myself clear, and I would have made my intentions clearer if I could speak English. But apparently, she has a thing for heterochromia. Maybe you should have been more direct with her. Flirting games get you nowhere. You gotta be upfront with this shit!

To be fair, only a bitch wouldn't find Zac Efron attractive. He's dreamy...

I fought with a bunch of people when I was 13 years old over on GaiaOnline, but never here.

I fought for Jay444111's right to use the forums a lot and nobody ever actually made me fight them back on that. He still seems to have disappeared after years of harassment. That's the closest I ever really got to our drama. (Oh, and reading through stuff like the #onereasonwhy comment thread that makes me want to start some drama.)

Last forum I was active at was decent five years ago. Now about 90% of it's population is people waiting around fishing for arguments over trivial shit that nobody really cares about other than themselves to make them feel superior to everybody else. It got to a point where any post you made was nitpicked to all hell and you got called out on any opinion you had because it wasn't the same as somebody else's opinion. I couldn't fucking take it anymore and left a couple of months ago.

I would have told her of my feelings sooner but her father, the evil oil baron, threatened to fire my mother, as she is his personal masseuse. Of course if she lost that job we would lose the health insurance which pays for the hospital bills for my younger brother Victor while we wait for him to come out of his coma, caused by an unfortunate accident during a sexual encounter with the bakers wife.

I got angry at a mod at another (long since dead) forum because he banned a friend of mine with no reason other than they didn't get along. My friend hadn't actually caused any trouble, though.

I've tried to stay very far away from forum drama since then, though.

I remember I was put on probation(or whatever) because some user told a mod my sig image was five pixels over the max limit. So I then made another sig equating the "draconian" rules with a certain regime from Germany, because I was a stupid teenager.

I eventually left that forum because it was dying, and some dude would always respond to my posts saying until I actually made a film I didn't have the grounds to criticize a film, Michael Bay's to be specific, and I was being relatively soft towards them. His constant insistence that he helped composed soundtracks and was listed on IMDB multiple times without ever actually providing a link, so he would have the "right" to criticize films, also didn't help
