this is kinda sad because back in 2007 when I started participating with my doktorcaligari account, I did it in the storyline forum, there was that weasel guy who was a mod and that other MORT guy from the former phyrexia.com site and besides being very knowledgeable persons, they were also very modest and wouldn't spout bulshittery on a daily basis.

Guess the site moved on since, but I never went back to the storyline subforum, even when I was not yet banned.
I was going to start creating custom cards when I first came on board, as that was my forte before joining and something I
really enjoyed, until I saw the kind of dreck people were not only getting away with posting but actually getting kudos for creating. It was awful, like I specifically remember a conversation revolving around:

Double Bolt :r:
Instant

Double Bolt deals 3 damage to 2 target creatures.

and people were bitching that it wasn't as good as Lightning Bolt (which was banned at the time) because you might have to wait to cast it "or kill one of your creatures to kill theirs." Interestingly, I figure it was the vomit-inducing circle jerk atmosphere of Clan Flamingo that probably drove me towards the places on the site that one could at least yell at other users without fear of repercussions in the first place.
blame annorexia also

Senori has been relieved of active moderation duty due to philosophical differences. We thank him for his dedicated service.

Now about main topic : http://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/ar ... 2014-07-22 I wanted to post this on MTGS as I was one of the private partners ( read emailed Chase info over a year to get them closed) yet MTGS denied it as irrelevant info

I've been banned from there about 4 times now...they only catch me when I decide to talk about how much I liked Matthew Stover's Tezzeret novel. I'd swear they were practically telling me to slap some TRIGGER WARNINGS all over my praise for the book. Apparently some the MTGS crew got pissy with Stover when he tried to defend his use of modern dialogue and more graphic content (but really, do you expect someone that grew up in the ghettos of a class-based plane obsessed with replacing flesh with machine parts to speak all nice and proper?)..as opposed to silly pseudo medieval dialogue. Stover being evasive on which versions of the characters were the actual ones (to the point of asking the MTGS crew flat out if it really mattered all that much) is apparently a pretty big TRIGGER.

I liked that book a lot, but I'm not a canon nazi.

Pretty sure the modern dialogue coming from Tezzeret wasn't the issue. He mostly spoke very eloquently because he was ashamed of his past. All the goat balls and pimp slaps came from Bolas.

The staff has discussed your appeal and have decided to reject it. We feel that the benefits that you could bring to the site do not outweigh the potential risks bringing you back to the site have. We are also unsure when or if this feeling is going to change so can’t give you any suggestion of how you could make a new appeal more successful
iridium is so buttmad that even people that came after the #leakgate just can't let it go

To his defense, he does have a much more subtle way to tell people that appeal in the rape cave to go fuck themselves, which is a little bit more refreshing in the wake of admins like Galspanic playing the "I'm gonna pretent I'm plain dumb" card.

Galspanic lacks the imagination to "pretend" such a thing.

They were right. Unbanning me was risky because I went through all that effort just because I wanted to post smileys all over their helpdesks.

I actually only wanted the new mods to read the story of how people got mad over backwards Morse code Spanish in the form of smileys.
