Tyrion posted a thread that was taken down claiming a troll named Jasnasdas(something like that) was posing as him. He did the same in a few games against me, so all the evidence I need.

You mean that there is the RT ladder #1 called Tyrion Lannister and that's a different person than Lord Varys etc?

To everyone who is questioning Fizzer's action:

1. Just dont break the rules, be kind and you will NEVER have any problems with bans. Ion posted nudes, therefor he got banned. Salty was disrespectful to other players - got banned. They all deserved it, because they provoked it. Annoying people is not against the rules, thus harmless trolls dont deserve a ban.

2. Keep in mind that Fizzer made this website, maintains it, pays for it. Without Fizzer you would not be even here. That would be like you insulted your mother for prohibating things to you. Worship your parents. Alternately you can make your own WL-clone, maintain it, pay for it, moderate it, develope it.

Hit me up, when you are finished with the programming-stuff.

"Disrespectful" to his friends, y'know. We're talking on skype right now and literally no one cares about it. Are you gonna tell me that you call your buddies "Mr." and "Mrs."? Well, dunno 'bout you, but here, if you do that, Salty's words are my words.

It's a two-way street. Without the users all of Fizzer's work would be meaningless. Sure, a King might have absolute power but absolute power doesn't help if all the peasants revolt. There needs to be a mutual understanding.

If you guys don't like Fizzers' treatment of forum users why don't you just leave in protest, and enable adblock when you are here? That'll show him.

Or you could all just I dunno...grow up?


I understand where Eklipse is coming from, but Eklipse genuinely doesn't post things that are absolute trash and are meaningless. Where as I can count all but maybe three people on this forum that aren't garbage posters.

In the end grow up. Its a game, if you're going to be on the forum, follow the forums rules. I digress, stop whining and get over the fact that someone who consistently bashed other people got banned. And now, I'm just waiting for the blatant sex clan to get banned.

But until that happens, I don't see anything else that he can do besides I dunno, hire on more staff.

@Des: It's not just the fact that Salty was banned which is making people angry. It's the fact that the rules seem to be getting enforced really unevenly. If the rules were being enforced equally across the board, I don't think we'd be seeing as much outrage over this.

And now, I'm just waiting for the blatant sex clan to get banned.

Never going to happen and we both know it. :P

@Eklipse If you and I were to get banned for being blunt, I'd be more upset. But again, its not like its actual preferential treatment. Its probably more based on the amount of times they get reported. Salty probably got a lot of crap for doing what he did, and guess what, if his name was on the top of the hit list, so be it.

And secondly, yeah I know. If people really wanna talk about unfairness and inequality, lets look at the fact that we still have someone called Cumburper playing Warlight.

I don't think the folk here are whining about the rules being enforced - just the temporal and punishment inconsistency.

Also, taking an elitist tone helps nothing - you criticise them for whining by whining.

Honestly, I'm not whining, its more of a "female dog in heat" sort of way. I literally can't go anywhere on the forums without seeing someone post something completely and utterly and infinitely dumb. And honestly, I've done all that I can. There isn't much more to do when you have a clan thats literally slang off the body's anatomy.

The biggest part of the inconsistency should've been when Cumburper was forced to change their name and went to another sexual term before changing it back to Cumburper.

Unfair? I doubt it. Its more or less just the person being banned.

And yeah, its gonna sound elitist, how often do you really see a post by me Xapy? And in all honesty, I was hoping more anger and being absolutely annoyed would've came out. But whatever. Not much more I can do.

To be frank, I like the wacko trolling, it's a funny parody of gamers. As for dumb folks, well, they're not going away, but that's not what this thread is about - it's about the same thing you are talking about here - "inconsistency".

The Wackos are the next attackers. They will get banned one by one slowly the way they are going :p they already have one down. But frankly, I'm with juq here, it's actually pretty funny. Maybe I'm just attracted to general shtposting.

(well, i am hell tired, i haven't any idea )

Btw, SirSalty, in my opinion, even if it was annoying sometimes , he was a very good friend (at least in diplos, in the last one we were in a strong alliance , and the only one i had...)
Kammeraden, you will be missed, maybe not. But...that's the life..

Back in my days, people were banned for actual troublemaking, y'know. Like Ion posting his nudes and stuff.

A few things i see in this thread...

1) zeph said he woulf be fine with a game ban if he could still banter on forums. Do you realize that is the issue? So many see the forums as primary and the game secondary (like something to kill time between OT posts). That is a big issue IMO. The boads supplement the game, not the other way around.

2) someone said it is two way street (that with no traffic, no revanue). True, but the vast majority of people would still play without the forums at all. You guys may think everyone prioritizes the boards, but most avoid them because they are mostly OT or clan banter now.

3) the bar may be lower for a ban, not sure. But back in the day you had VERY few pushing boundaries. With so many now, perhaps he has to tighten standards
