So lately I've been pretty idle on the Escapist, I think yesterday was the first time I've been on in nearly a month.

Naturally, I had a whole bunch of messages to sift through, and one of them (actually, one of the only ones I actually read) was about... The unthinkable, the Escapist's very own DementedTeddy's been banned! This is old news, and most likely there have been dozens of threads about this, but I gotta admit, I'm surprised.

Even though she was constantly in some sort of trouble with the mods, she managed to avoid this sort of thing for the most part.

She was pwned whilst doing what she does best, pwning others. She'll be missed by me, and many others I'm sure.

Conversation value: Why does this place go to hell when I become a cynical bastard and leave for a little bit? Not that I influenced it, I'm not really known here anyways, but still.

Getting more to the point: Have you ever had something like this happen, where you don't check up on something and find out that shit's happened? Well, I guess that's what happens when you don't check back, you miss things.

Anyways, enough rambling.

Mod Edit: This is not a thread to discuss Demented Teddy. Please keep your discussion to the Conversation Value prompt, not on users whom have been banned.

It's obvious that your are the glue that holds us together. You are the reason she was banned. Bow your head in shame! (Joking of course)

I remember leaving a few sites or forgetting tv shows often enough. When I come back I've pretty much missed out on any development and become very sad. On the bright side I then have something to do!

Wait what? She was? I never knew that... So that's why there are those DT style avatars around here...

Well I have but I probably can't recall of it. Probably a website from my childhood...
I'll never leave this place!

It always sucks when people with high post counts get banned, especially if they're interestiing like Teddy and the long gone Max the Reaper. But even more interesting people come to this sight.

It is really annoying when things make massive changes while you're busy with someting else, it was especially confusing when I came back to TF2 and found myself surrounded by fish weilding fiens.

This is actually the first thread I've seen on her banning. So 'dozens of threads' is actually inaccurate. (I'm shocked there haven't been more myself).

OT: I only visited occasionally when MaxtheReaper was banned. When I visited one day, apparently things had gone to Hell.

Wait, what? Fuck, why did she get banned?

I guess I got confused by all the people with Teddy-esque avatars that I never noticed it...

Anyway, I once forgot my DA password for a year. I had so many messages...

I will miss her posts, they were always fun to read.

Well I was away from WoW for a year and 5months and I come back to find the mobs who were red in level 1-5 areas are yellow now! Also that PvP on my realm has pretty much disappeared.

Yeah, DT getting banned is news to me too... Someone have a thread link?

Because of microphone problems, a ZM server clan is missing me. I wonder how many ranks I lost because of my absense...

If by "interesting" you mean "jerks" then I agree with you. Insulting others and instigating fights over silly things is not my idea of interesting. Teddy was alright, but some of her lashing out was kind of over trivial things.

Well what specifically did she get banned for?

And I'm sure she could just as easily make a new account or appeal to the mods in some way.

Thats what I thought. But then I really didn't know her.

I never PMed her and she never quoted me/I never qouted her but she will be missed by me none the less.

But maybe she'll make a new account under a new alias and we will never know its her.

P.s. why are a lot of people using her avatar?(is it some sort of FREE TEDDY!thing?)

He will most likely be forgotten after not too long.
Or he'll just make another account.

What ever happened to him? i saw that he wasn't on anymore but am curious as to why he got banned
I believe it was just due to constant mod wrath, very much like why Demented Teddy was banned. It wasn't for a particular post, but the accumulation of dozens.

Oh no, someone got banned for flaming? I wouldn't call that the Escapist going to hell. I'd call that the Escapist staying right on the straight and narrow.

I don't know anything about Demented Teddy, but looking at the "Socialism where do you stand" thread she was acting like a twat. To those of you who claim she only flamed those who flamed her, well I suggest reading that thread.

Besides, "but they did it first" is hardly an excuse anyway.
