Suggestion: IP Ban Theos

[Black Butler]

That thread was funny

 

[Dragon Lord]

If this thread was made by someone else and not by you Kagutsuchi, I would have trashed it immediately. But I know you for almost 3 years now and I understand that it's just frustration and not a personal/hateful thread.

First of all, and you should all know this, the IP ban takes 3 seconds from the time of an admin but there needs to be some procedure in order to be given. A smod needs to official 'notify' us and open the case. Then all admins and smods talk about this and decide if this needs to happen taking under consideration that when you IP ban someone it is for life and also, it's not only banning this person but a potential group of people that could be invited to join the site by this same user. It is not as simple as it seems. It's not just one person. I am not taking about spam bots or situations of emergency of course.

Second, if we let every member of the forum engage into this kind of discussion and decisions about who should be banned or not, then there would be chaos. That's the reason why we have hierarchy and a staff team that's responsible for taking these decisions. And the best proof about this, is those members who posted in favor of banning here without knowing Takai at all.

Third, and more specifically about this. I do not understand why an IP ban should be given to him. I would definitely not question an RP-sections ban since in fact there seems to be a problem with Takai in the battle arena. But an IP ban is definitely not justified for someone who is not advertising, who is not stealing our systems/ideas/patterns and who is not causing chaos anywhere in the forum. The IP ban is the most severe type of punishment we have on this forum and it should be kept reserved for extreme situations only.

I will leave this thread open to discussion, in order to answer to your questions on what I posted. But please, do not spam and do not offend anyone.

i dont know what this Guy did, but i Agree, Giving him NB Death Sentence is Cruel!, some People here seem to react out of their feelings towards this person, and how they have been hurt by him, so they cant see clearly if they are being Unfair, thats why, there are Mods and Adminstrators.

comes to an end

 

[Dragon Lord]

Read Rei's post

Yes, Didnt see she was here

Thanks for the Admin Support!

to be honest, im not found of most Mods, cuz they can be unfair, Caliburn though is Great, however the Admins, Specially Versuvio, Rei, Nexus, including Caliburn, and yourself are very different, worthy of your titles, and more!

i was banned unfairly, and you guys helped me out, So thanks! (^_^)

 

[Anduril]

Wow never had any dealings with this guy but looks like the guys a LEGEND!!!
:rofl:
but i voted for other since i thought it to be too harsh

 

[Hotarubi]

I don't know. I used to be a mod in an anime forum ( in 2007 , years ago) , we used to gave one time only warning , after that, permanent ban. One person couldn't call another even "stupid"
Things are easier on NB , but even though it's none of my business, but since it's a public poll, you can go with RP-section ban , but if he continues his behavioir, you know better what to do then. =)

If the IP ban can't go ahead.. then maybe it should just be a rp section ban as he has caused a lot of problems in there and he was actually banned in rp for some things. Yet he was let off that and he does seem to still be causing problems (otherwise this thread wouldn't have been posted)

I would say an rp section ban but I wouldn't know how long for as permanently would be a bit.. mm.. harsh and he would still complain ..

Yeah.. >.> RP section ban would be okay for him considering he causes problems almost daily.

I am Glad that you came and posted, I really appreciate that you didn't close the thread too. You know I would never do this for any other member and this is Not personal Hatred. I am expressing the need of exceptional IP Ban.

Theos might be a good guy in real and when talking to friends but in RP he is, well put it like this, "Not Suitable". If He can be banned from all RP areas than its fine too.

This thread is not meant for any Offense, NB is majorly used for Rp'ing and active though NB has most active sections of Manga's but on a whole RP is main section and most active one as well During all days of week. It really bothers Sensei and other RP'er's when Theos just "Theosizes" the Thread and starts offending everyone thinking that he is correct.

I was similar once but given time I understood, though I was not this serious not even close. But he has made his own choice to go against everyone. He argued with Rag, Cali , Mugi , Scar , Nexus. God knows who else. That's why I am in for IP Ban.

But if you can ban him from RP system, let him VM his friends read manga and discuss manga than I would be satisfied as well. Rei you know that how much bad he has done, how much he has insulted and how many time he got banned. I made this thread while he is banned is only to protect HIM and this thread from getting "Theosized".

I understand that you are an Admin and want to protect all Members, it's sweet and nice of you. We all know your nature, but some people need permanent solution. But since you say IP ban is Harsh , I say Ban him from RP'ing.

Thanks for your time, and leaving this thread open for discussion. Let this thread be open for sometime and we see how poll decides than its upto Admins to take action.

I love NarutoBase, it has given me Entertainment during boring days, But the Friends I made are priceless, I want this place to be a calming place rather than a place where Theos lurks around corner .

 

[Escorpiius]

I don't know him personally but from I've read with the 2 links, he deserve a Ban for brain frying of NB members
Now, even if a long Ban will be justified, an IP Ban will be a bit too cruel regardless of his actions yet. That's my opinion. A special Ban will be more considerable and justified - like Bans in specific sections.

 

[Rei]

@ Kagutsuchi

thanks for your reply. I will check Theos' latest activity, talk with the rest of the staff members and we will hopefully all agree on a decision.

 

[Gatsndshanks]

I say eradicate him. So that it sets an example to all the imbeciles and for our own pleasure, of course >:] *gets his burning torch ready*

If you'd like an ex-mod's opinion, I strongly advocate an RP-section ban. ^_^

I suggest a Life-Ban.

That "person" (in favor of not saying anything bad) needs to be banned from life,it burns my eyes just looking at his username.

Also,I am saying this with big appreciation,but you admins and Higher ups need to wake up and have a look around,because it isn`t all rainbow and sunshine.

You people do not participate as much as normal members in the forums,by common logic we can judge better if Theos is a threat to the well being of the base or not.
When you have 19 people,and not just people who joined last month,but people that have been here a year,two and even from the beginning,saying that they want this guy out,it means something you are doing is not correct.

And again,saying this with much respect.

First of all, IP-ban wouldn't be so effective. He has dynamic IP. That means his IP changes like every hour or so.

He has been an active member of the forums for almost two years now, and since day one, he hasn't been much liked, and he has been screwing up. A special little fella.
The only thing that has changed about him is that his English skills have become a little better, not by much, but we can see an improvement.

Let him serve his two month ban, and when he comes back, he'll have one last chance and he screws that up, it'll be permanent ban from the RP section. (And he'll whine about it so hard).
He's only active in RP section to begin with, so it'd be almost as effective as getting banned from the whole forum.

Thats what I think would be best.

I mean he has gotten so many chances in the past. You would think he's the kind of guy who would choose death over dishonor, or ban over dishonor. But as soon as he gets banned, he gets down on his knees and starts begging Nexus to unban him. As I said, he's a special person o_o not necessarily in a good way. He really tries to do right, but as soon as something doesn't got his way, he freaks out and puts on an act.

Wrong,it happens whenever he restarts his Modem Router.
But,the vBulletin and modern day technology offer many kinds of banning.
For instance,there is a way to ban his Network card,that way,even if he changes his connection,he will still not be able to create an account here.

 

[Pervyy]

I agree on the RP section ban but not permaban. Most of his antics are seen in the RP section so ban him from there atleast.

I also find it funny how people who don't know him are posting here :|

 

[Kagutsuchi]

@ Kagutsuchi

Thanks I will wait for it..

@All Senior Members, ( Emp, Mugi ) : Thanks , But he has being given so many chances, He always does that. Since in RP post count is everything , Banning his account would resolve this problem.

Again thank you all for participation.

I was under the impression that IP Bans were meant for people who intents to harm the site with their actions I.E hacking, posting too much mature contents etc. IMO IP ban is a bit too harsh surely his actions might be nuisance but not that harmful if we exclude insults(for which i'm sure he's treated accordingly). RP Ban should be more then enough, he wont have anything to discuss/argue with that.
