You deserved it. /saracasm

No, seriously? Banned for telling a lame joke? o_O
Yeah

iirc the thread was about telling knock knock jokes, and my answer was.

"Knock knock.

Who's there?

I don't know."

Then banned.

I got kicked off a server on Jedi Academy because...err...I don't really know. The host said I was really annoying, but I don't remember doing anything that would typically get on someone's nerves.

And while playing Red Dead Redemption, I got invited by a bunch of English guys to join their posse. As soon as I opened my mouth, they kicked me out just because I wasn't British. I just responded with good ol' sarcasm. Oh geez, what was I thinking? I didn't realize I was on the British internet. It's as if I thought the internet was international or something.

I'd say it was this, seeing as I haven't really been banned from anything else:
I've been booted from a few games on XBL, but I don't really play multiplayer on PC, apart from with friends, so I haven't really been banned from any games...

I regularly get kicked or People just try to kick me for alledged hacking. Even though i have never hacked in any Multiplayer Game because that'd be like admitting Defeat before i even tried.

By default tho, apparently im so good that even ESL Progamer are calling me a Hacker on Occasion simply because i play better than them or simply get luckier than them. Sometimes makes me wonder whatever happened to "Learn from every Defeat" because those People arent learning, at all.

I once confessed my belief that homosexuality is perfectly acceptable and everyone should stop using gay as a derogatry term. Banned.
Once told someone who had pulled the whole ZOMG GIRLZ ON THE NET thing that there is good reason that stereotype exists : idiots like them. Banned.

Good times.

Closest I've had is that I once got kicked from a casual guild for not raiding. Go figure.
When I joined the guild, they knew why I wouldn't be attending the weekly raids, but I think the guild leader wanted to go from social guild to full raiding guild :/.
Apparently my presence was frowned upon by the GM all of a sudden. I talked to other guild members who thought I was fine to be in the guild, but oh well, the GM was a bit of a strange person in general anyway.

I think everyone's been kicked from an online gaming sever for actually being too good.

And those Christian tf2 servers, oh my god. Those those stories are not fairy tales, those servers do exist.

I've been banned a lot before for announcing I was a girl on microphone. :x

It was...weird.
You sure you're telling us the whole story?

For all we know, your "announcement" could have been something along the lines of:

"I AM A GIRL WITH TITTIES!"

Just saying.

OT: Don't think I've ever been banned. Though I did get kicked out from a raiding party in WoW because it was my first time in a raid and I was inexperienced.

The problem with that? They all knew it beforehand and told me it was alright to come along.

Douchebarfs.

Why, that would be generated by the lovely Escapist mods right here. Either that shows the ban was a bit obscene, or I've barely ever been banned from things.

I got banned from the Marvel Comics Forum for writing exactly this:

Spider-Man, Mephisto...Wha???

I then asked them if I needed to send a copy of my F.O.O.M. (Friends Of Old Marvel) card and a copy of my No-Prize envelope to get back in (I knew it wouldn't help). The Mod asked me what that would prove and I said it would prove that I've been a fan of Marvel longer than the latest dickweed in cheif, Joe Quesada and his Butt Boy, Brian Michael Bendis have been there screwing it up. Needless to say I was never allowed back.

Although, to be fair, that would be like posting "Mario, in space, wut?" in the Mario Galaxy 2 review thread.

On topic, I don't honestly recall the last time I got banned. Sure, I got kicked from a L4D2 game for connecting and promtly falling off the ledge I was standing on.

Failure to use a hotmail client I didn't want or use in the first place. Technically more of an invalidation than a ban, and now it's been rectified, but that's as close as I get.
