OMG wtf?
Deffeh is banned? omg that's so not fair. i think i will cry.
In all seriousness though...surely closing the thread would have sufficed. After all, this thread was far more spamtastic and didnt lead to a ban. Seems somehow unfair.

Re: OMG wtf?
I think those posts were removed from another thread that Deffeh was spamming.
I assume anyway.

Re: OMG wtf?
I doubt it'll last more than a few hours, if that.
Still, Deffeh reminded me of Sunday in that thread, I'm pretty sure he did that sort of thing once (in his thread about most disliked forum posters or something).

Re: OMG wtf?
I dislike posters deleting threads they've started just because they find the conversation has taken a turn they're not overly fond of. For deleting that thread, insulting GD, coming into a separate thread and fagging on about the topic when everyone else had moved on and then finally creating an annoying thread in which he inanely attempted to parody what he thought had occurred deffeh got a 24 hour ban. I'd have made it shorter, like 12 hours, but I can't.
And posting a thread from three years ago to make a point is silly at best. Different times, different mods, different activity levels, different tones of threads and different preludes.

Sunday once deleted a bunch of threads he had started to try and lower MrL's post count if I remember correctly.

I was more thinking of the one you were modding in real-time (as it were) deleting every off-topic post, then you restored a hundred posts in the space of about three minutes which then made every single post seem deliciously surreal.
This thread, I think : http://pirate.planetarion.com/showthread.php?t=179138

Yes, things were BETTER in the old days. BETTER I TELL YOU.
I didnt actually check the date of the thread, someone just pasted it in irc and it amused me.
Posters are allowed to delete their own threads for whatever reason they want though, aren't they?

I've, unilaterally, decided that no, no they aren't and if requested or I deem it beneficial I will restore posts from a deleted thread, taking care of course to remove any posts from the thread starter. I feel that the nature of intellectual property and a desire for freedom of exchange of ideas back my idea but really it's just me lacking anything to do in work.
PS I really liked that thread dante. Plus my "ladies and negroes, we are black by popular demand" post is probably one of my top five internet moments.

Not having read it before, that thread is amazing.
It also features 1-X getting angry. I didn't even know that was possible

But by making those threads he made MrL post there, which added to his post count. Deleting the thread only put his post count back to where it started

This has to be the worst thread I have ever encountered. It must be the worst combination of posts, replies, sentences, words and characters ever to have existed anywhere in the universe.

Deleting threads to lower my post count was pretty pointless, because I don't actually care about my post count (does it really matter if it's 10k, 20k or 30k, or even 0k?). Even ignoring that, he deleted a lot of discussion and conversation from the forum because he wanted to spite another user. The fact that he failed just made the move even more shit.
