kittykat: Also btw I rather thought we had fun in WhiteElk's contest thread...didn't we?
I knew it was the Rager, seriously! and I was just playing, man..I meant no offense. Peace? =D

EDIT: They probably deleted everything, because they don't have enough man hours to go through everything you posted..You are quite prolific my friend :p ...As to why they banned you..Sorry man I don't know that. :\

kittykat: I'm sad....I made that whole you break it you buy it experiment thread which was civil and full of amazing replies and many other good threads and it's all gone now. :(

I feel so bad...I dunno what to do now.
That is to bad, I for one really liked the "You break it you buy it" thread...it was a very interesting topic. Tell me you still have access to your games at least?
Maybe the topic about priating games was close to them being in violation of some law I don't know about...I have no other idea....It's okay Rage, and when in doubt I'm sure there are other fourms and places where you can post your ideas and stuff when you want that won't ban you....I'm not overly educated on the subject but, I'm sure you can find some.

kittykat: I'm thinking it's because Lukipela got banned(by the spam bot so they say because his rep was low and his post marked as spam so many times) and I made a thread calling them out on it.

BTW I did find a forum where they aren't as banhappy....it's duke4.net's forum on DNF....i'm DN4EVR there, btw. There they don't mark posts low rated and hide them when people hit downvote too many times, among other things.
Good ol' Lukipela....I read some of their post, and they did sort of set themselves up for people to bash on them. I, for one would not do that, and didn't, but, sometimes when one goes looking for trouble, one finds a bit more then they thought they would. Not saying it's right to ban them for it...I mean, it is peoples choice to participate in threads, and to read them, and when it was the person who created the thread, well? I don't see why they can't talk about what they will within reason, since it is a general disscussion forum and all.

I'm happy you found that site and, if its anything like how long it took them to come out with Duke Nuken Forever, than it should be around for a very very long time to come! :D

EDIT: Gotta go Rager, hope things get better for you, and I have a feeling I'll still see you around. Good Night :-)

KOCollins: I believe they are the next person to be banned from GoG

Am I right?! =D

kittykat: Wtf is wrong with you? I did nothing wrong, and all my posts are gone. Yet gog will sweep this under the rug to placate the longtimers and get more sales from them. I didn't break a rule, and received no staff warning. Also why was everything deleted? And not what they found offensive?

Also btw I rather thought we had fun in WhiteElk's contest thread...didn't we?
Because here is not a public forum (there is no designated moderator) but a private one, and on a private forum, owners of the forum are free to do whatever they want without warning. It's the rule.

And while I always find it sad when somebody is banned, you played too much with fire and GOG didn't want to bother with keeping what was worth it (and there was a lot) and deleting what was not (and there was also a lot), so they chose to wipe you entirely.

Navagon: There's no such thing as communism. Yes, the people in the countries that have had so called communist regimes were simply lied to and mislead, but it was never, nor ever would have been communism. It's simply impossible for communism to exist.
Got to be on a commune for it to be communism...while feeding home made sprouts to your children Understanding-Jedi, Santa-Rainbow, Orion-Moon-Beam and lil Wind-Song.

And communISTS are scary beings from another dimension who can travel to our world from inside your closet when you turn out the lights.

kittykat: XA, stop being blind about what's going on here & acting the part of a mod apologist already. Thing is, they can do what they want, but banning and clearing someone's account for doing nothing is a load of crap and you know it. If it were you or one of your friends here i'm guessing you wouldn't have such an opinion, but because it's me it's ok?

Also yes they can be unfair and all, but it will lose them customers in the end, as they ban more and more people they don't like.......how is that preferrable to a regular modded forum? Is it because it's the most convenient for you?
Oh, I'm not saying mods were right or wrong in banning people, and frankly, I don't care AT ALL. I was just explaining that they had every right to do whatever pleased them, whether it is wrong or it is right.

And honestly, if they ban me from the forum but I keep all my bought games, I couldn't care less... I'll certainly pass for a grumpy old geezer, but the "classy community" that was GOG went downhill when they thought it would be a good idea to do a PR stunt about GOG definitely closing. Oh yeah, it created the buzz, but it also irremediably splitted the community between those who were mad at GOG for such a trick and those who found it funny.

From then, trolls and unpolite people multiplied on the forum and one can't say that GameRager was the nicest addition to the community in his first months here

Maybe this ban-rush will make GOG lose customers, yes. Who care, as long as they remain in operations? And if not, well, too bad, but at least their games are DRM-free so you just have to download them and if GOG goes bankrupt you still can play them.

So all in all, this is much ado about nothing.

What was your nickname here before you got banned?

It's fine. And what are his assets in GOG company to have right to demand this?

xa_chan: What was your nickname here before you got banned?

kittykat: What does that have to do with what I asked?
Might make the difference between me feeling truly sorry for you and me not caring at all. ^_^
It's not a demand.....and being unfairly treated is wrong regardless of the venue. So you're saying treating people unfairly is alright if you're the owner of a private forum?
Yes it is. Noone is forced to be here. If you think it's unfair, why you're still here?

When someone is treating me wrong I shut the door and never come back.

You can communicate with your friends by IMs or e-mail.

Also IMs and email aren't as personal to me.

GOG forums - private hands
His bed - private hands.

Perfect analogy.

EndTheLies: GOG Forums - Open to the public.

His bed - Not open to the public.
It's not. Forum is opened for registered users who are not banned. Ergo: Forums are open only to the pepole GOG wants here. And forums are closed to the banned people.

Same as his bed I suppose.

Just because you can enter to a mall/cinema does not mean you can stand there as long as you want and do what you want. And whine when somebody kicks you out.
