Default Mr eg banned?

May his account RIP. He was a good contributor. Anyone have details on his untimely demise?

That's too bad I always enjoyed his contribution. His off the rails rants always made me chuckle!

Bottom of page 1, all of page 2.

He basically blew up and used some pretty foul, pointed language, and got banned. I'm not sure if there were any previous offenses.

I liked his last post, was funny when he started banging on the keyboard lol. And I agree with Dis(whateverthename) at the bottom of the page, seems he got banned for being angry and wasn't even given a warning which is pretty dumb

That sucks. I really liked the guy. Certainly what he said needed a warning but not a ban. I can think of some others who truly deserve it but are still around (no, not thinking of me )

I'm assuming he had been warned many times. I would guess warnings come in pms.

What!? He got banned for that? Have you read the hellaflush/fakeparts threads in the gallery? They make his comments look like Sunday school literature. Unless he was warned before the banning seems like excessive force. Kinda like moderator brutality.

Don't ban me bro!

Bah - pretty poor ban excuse, as far as I'm concerned, especially since that has happened so many times before and the mods 1) warned people first or 2) just cleaned the thread up a bit. Considering the contribution Mr. E.G. normally makes to the site, I'd say we're worse off now. They could've at least taken out NuncoStr8 with him to balance out the forces of good and evil....
