Furburt banned

[Danpascooch]

I have seen Furburt around the Escapist for quite a while, he has a massive post count, and I really like his posts, so it really sucked when I saw this:

X L e G i T X:
Sorry about that Furburt. Any way for me to end the topic?

You could PM a mod and ask them to lock the topic. If you like, I'll do it for you.

Also, it's always good to use the 'quote' function. When you do that, the person you quote gets a message. No worries though, you're new, it happens to us all.

Mod Edit: Do you think that because of your GIGANTIC post count that you can do my job for me? DO YOU?!?!?!?!!?! WRONG. Sigh..... Ok, after calming down, I've determined that it's nice to have people helping new users out. But, I never got a PM about locking the topic. NEVER. Do not lie to newer users when you promise to help them. Also, turns out Furburt means "furry policy advocate/lobbyist" in the Urban Dictionary. Eww. Permabanned. -Kuliani
User was banned for this post.(Permanent)

Is this seriously a permaban? He said "IF YOU LIKE I'll do it for you." and the guy never asked him to or got back to him, seriously, what did he even do wrong? Is this a joke, because it kind of bothers me to think a Mod could jump in all of the sudden and PERMANENTLY ban someone for a reason as flimsy and, quite frankly, stupid as this. I never saw Furburt promise anything, he said "IF YOU LIKE, I CAN do it" and never got a response.

Hahahahahahahahaha.

Ahem...yeah, that's a permaban.

And it's FOR REAL!

*wink, wink*

 

[Armored Prayer]

Yeah its quite sad that he got banned, but the question now is who will take his place?

*slowly smiles and starts laughing*

 

[Proteus214]

Check the date, that will probably answer your question for you.

 

[rezboyjoey]

1. Check callendar.
2. Apply palm to face.

 

[khaimera]

Hooray, now I can make way too many comments on here and be a celebrity too. Thats my new goal in life.

 

[ConstantJoe]

Hey look! Up there! At the top of the page! They changed the word Escapist to Gullible!

 

[Darth Caelum]

Wow......he got Banned. Never thought this day would come. Well, i salute you then. *salute*
God Damn it. April Fools. I forgot. Thanks a lot Kuliani. I'll remember this.

 

[Icecoldcynic]

Is this really something worth making a topic over?

 

[Nivag the Owl]

Obviously an April Fools joke. One of the eight kings of The Escapist would not genuinely be banned so hastily

 

[sephiroth1991]

He'll just make a new account or try to get the ban lifted

 

[lewism247]

Hahahahahahahahaha.

Ahem...yeah, that's a permaban.

And it's FOR REAL!

*wink, wink*

HEY!

This is a time for Mourning!

OP: Yeah it is a kick in the balls, great guy

 

[oppp7]

Ya, they're banning all the top posters to make way for the new people. Didn't you hear? Facebook bought the Escapist. They don't want us raising Hell over the flood of new users.

 

[StarStruckStrumpets]

This is actually pissing me off. I'm all for an April Fool's, but at least make it witty, like Bungie did this year. I for one, Kuliani, am not amused. I may well be taking this too seriously, but I've been put on false ban, it wasn't fun.

Assuming Hubilub and Furburt were both PM'd first, I can look past the joke and simply scowl whenever I read Kuliani's name, if not, this is just sick.

(I wonder how seriously everyone will take this post...)

 

[Sleekgiant]

Hahahahahahahahaha.

Ahem...yeah, that's a permaban.

And it's FOR REAL!

[sub]I know what's going on[/s]

HEY!

This is a time for Mourning!

OP: Yeah it is a kick in the balls, great guy

[sub]still knows whats going on[/sub]
I'll get the sad music and we can all dress in black to mourn his banning

 

[Danpascooch]

I know it's April 1st, so when I woke up today I just taped my palm to my face to preempt it, makes it hard to type

 

[Fraught]

Hah, I see what you did there, buddy.

 

[Delock]

Hub also got it

Didn't they talk about either 13 or a title after 13 to be the final game in the FF series?

I remember reading about it..

I believe it was here (text is a link)

Mod Edit: I've never liked your name. And that avatar just gave Spinwhiz a seizure. OH, AND HEY EVERYBODY, THAT LINK IS A RICKROLL. If it wasn't for the fact that Spinwhiz's seizure broke his chair, which I've always hated, I would have deleted all your posts. Permabanned. -Kuliani

 

[Optimus Hagrid]

The number of question marks and exclamation marks are directly proportionate to how much of an April's Fool joke this is.

 

[Armored Prayer]

Hooray, now I can make way too many comments on here and be a celebrity too. Thats my new goal in life.

Yes we should totally do that. You can have Furburt, I can have Hub, and anyone else can have the other banned members.

Together we will become the new faces of the Escapist and be very popular.
