I got banned from gamespot cuz I commented on how I can't stand the sight of a co-host in a show there and Bang! without warning even though I never got suspended before . It just wasn't fair at all like they never appreciated that I'm an old member . Giantbomb is not a replacement since I'm an old member here too but It would mean I'd spend some more time here

Good choice, but you should've left Gamespot a long time ago.

Don't think of it as being exiled. Think of it as coming home.  And who doesn't like coming home?*

This is fantastic, there's nothing more exciting than getting a member awful enough to get banned from that shithole.

When you say generic avatar, you do realise it's the standard avatar you start off with when you choose sony as an alignment...right?
 And on Giantbomb, when you get banned, unless you are mentally retarded, you should realise why.

What, you guys don't have the balls to come here unless you get banned from Gamespot? 
You might as well just fuck off since we're not important enough for your kind unless it's because you get a permanent ban from another site. Fuck you 
 
Just kidding, welcome to a community where teenagers leave "forever" and come back an hour or two later. 
And people are all loving and helpfu... I couldn't write that last part with a straight face, sorry :P

Don't say exiled.
 
Say upgraded.
 
I was also banned from there (even though they later wanted me back, and reinstated me), but I was here while also going to Gamespot. 
 
Yes, Giantbomb is the better place.

and thats why its generic... you know what that means right?

 maybe we should just make a template for them to smooth the process
 
hi im (Username here) and i was just banned from (other forum/website) for (excuse/no apparent reason)
i really want to start off here at giantbomb on a good note. fuck (other forum/website), Giantbomb is where its at!

oh yes...it certainly can be on some websites.  Gamespot included.  I got banned there a long time ago.  Got banned from a MMA (fighting) forum for liking a fighter that wasn't popular amongst other people on the forum.  Luckily, it's the internet...so there's always somewhere else to go (and most of the time you find a better place)

and welcome sir, sorry for the couple of jackasses that have already insulted you.  It doesn't represent most people here.  They think it makes them look cool to insult new comers, at least that is how I understand it.  Even tho this thread is probably you just venting about how shitty Gamespot forums are.

I found when I was on Gamespot (back before Giant Bomb) there were certain mods in the community which were just plain overly-strict, a shame you were banned but welcome to (what is at least in my opinion) a much better place. Try to pay no attention to the people who have insulted you in this thread so far, don't take that as a representation of how discussion normally is on the forums here. You seem to have already read the rules so you're doing a lot better than most of the newbies here and I hope you have an awesome time on Giant Bomb.

I'm with roofy on this one: nothing against the topic creator, but holy crap, we don't need a thread every time someone gets banned and comes over here. We get it, they ban people. Why cares? 
 
And why say 'exile?' I'm pretty sure I came over here on my own accord, and still visit gamespot.com every now and again. You know, because I haven't been banned.

You should have made a mob of people that follow your every whim and beg for your return to system administrators. I was literally asked by Gamespot to come back. So now I'm back, but I don't really know what to do now since I moved here.

wow what's goin' on here ? I just wanted to say hi for a good beginning  saw the first replies , went to work  and then this ?. Sure threads here are crazy.  
 
@roofy: what's ur problem ? I'm pretty sure my thread didn't take the space of your whole monitor to ask you to post some pointless comments . Or was the point to be against the tide so everyone would notice you "online" ? I freaking hated all those cool-obssessed kids back in GS's OT. Get real , and so will I , cuz it's after all a website where people recreate and not try to make up for their  life's misaries. 
@others: I don't need your sympathy , thank you very much.

@Ben99: We get a lot of "I just got banned from Gamespot so now I'm seeking refuge on Giantbomb" threads.  Aside from the fact that people get weary of reading the same threads over and over again, seeing that Giantbomb is your "plan B" as Xeiphyer so eloquently put it, is a little...discouraging?  
 
Regardless, it's hard to reprimand someone who doesn't know any better.  So, instead I'll just ask you to enjoy your stay.  Good day to you.

I've read their reviews from time to time but I was never a member of their community. I didn't know who any of the staff were before coming to GiantBomb. 
 
Anyway, @Ben99: , welcome to GiantBomb. Change your avatar! Have fun and don't take the trolls too seriously. This site is tons better than GameSpot ever was. Don't let the Naked Cartoon Pussy hit you in the face.

Go away...my god.. that avatar is the default avatar you start with, boohoo some people don't change it right away before posting. If you're gonna be a dick to new members leave the site...please.
 
Welcome to GiantBomb by the way, read the forum rules and such. And don't listen to what that roofy guy said.
