They're not referring to an issue with Border on the game server. That is a fairly simple ban to do. Regardless of what his IP is, or his player name...he won't be able to get on the game server with his current GUID. However...the problem is with him registering on the forums under assumed names and posting his little heart out. That's why the GUID doesn't come into play on this issue :D
I thought Border had been banned from the game server as well as the forums. However, I saw him in-game earlier this week and realized this was not the case. I guess the rules don't apply to both servers - just one or the other. Nice to know that I can harass people here and get banned from the forum, yet can still go into the game and harass people there if I so wish.
I will consistently sacrifice political correctness for an attempt at humor. If ya can't deal, then ya need ta stop being ign'ant.

No he is banned from the server as well. I just did it a couple hours ago when he was on.
Only Joey can ban someone when they aren't on the server. The rest of us have to wait until the person is on the server and then we can ban them.
So border_2 is banned from the server and forums for continued harassment of players. If he has a problem with that he can talk to Joey.

Hmm....yes...I was under the impression that he had already been banned from the game server.

NOTE: Grrrrrr! who did these smilies...they're tickin me off. Sometimes when I type words....smilies show up


OK Thanks for the 411! Could you also please see that this is communicated to the other admins? When I asked Puppy the other day, he didn't know if Border was supposed to be there or not...

We just didn't say anything to anyone so border would show up so we could ban him. If we said something about it on forums he would stay away and hope we forgot and come back later on.

Oh I completely understand that, since he needed to be ingame for any1 other than Joeyz to ban him. IMHO some1 could have informed all admins via PM so they knew to do it when he was on. I just think that all admins be as informed as possible as often as possible of any such intent, so they have some idea exactly what's going on when the time calls for it.ZombieSlayer wrote:We just didn't say anything to anyone so border would show up so we could ban him.

(and I realize that may have come out sounding A-holish, which is not my intent here, just putting in my 2 bits)

Of course I would not know that, not having access to that area of the forum (just stating the obvious here). But it's nice to know that at least the effort was made, even if Puppy didn't read it right away (so it seems).
So I'll just sit down and STFU then... for now! LOL!
