Re: Open your damn eyes
Even the suggestion that Steve would do something like this on a personal level to you is ridiculous. You dont know him, I do and have done so for many years. I dont think Steve would have gone out of his way to mess around with some options to screw up your access.
We can block IP addresses of course, but we would usually avoid this method when banning people as it can unintentionally ban others within same IP range. If they break the rules by registering another account on same IP multiple times then we might resort to it however but thats a different matter entirely and you using a VPN/Proxy is also against the rules regardless of if you think some imaginary issue has caused it.
Plus as you said, its me that should have the problem with you, not them. They wouldnt go through all this trouble if they had done something, for you being sarcastic or whatever. The fact that from a technicial standpoint I have even conversed with you after the events you have caused should speak volumes. However the fact that you have registered on these forums at all after this whole scenario speaks volumes about you also... I have been civil and helpful and you have caused issues on these boards and we could have banned you as soon as you regsitered with no reason given whatsoever. This is our house and we decide who comes through these doors and people play by our rules, this is no court of law... we are the law here and if we wanted you out you would be out. No messing about limiting anyones account or tweaking any settings... a simple ban and goodbye you are gone and forgotten.
Surely if someone was going to do something it would be me, however it was me that unbanned you actually and listened to what you had to say and showed that I really dont care enough to hold some kind of 'internet grudge' against you because im not a child.
Your so convinced theres some kind of conspiracy theory behind all this that you probably overlooked some technical thing somewhere. Its really not as interesting as your making it out to be and all this drama and such is completely overblown and unneeded as im quite convinced no profile tampering or whatever it was you think happened somehow hasnt.
As you so nicely put it...

What did I owe you and why should i have done you ANY kind of favour?
Yet against my own instinct I even accepted your invite to MSN to talk through the banning and get your view of things. I could have just left it at that and not taken any action, yeah it might have been against forum policy (although staff can freely ban if they deem necessary its at their discretion we dont HAVE to give any warnings) but I had the choice. However as a mature adult I decided I would hear you out and listen to what you had to say. All I had before that was accusations and mudslinging at me, how many people would have actually done what I did after personal issues with that very same person?
You are causing issues, you have been name calling, trolling and harassing us... from a personal standpoint I dont know you and dont care to obviously. You clearly had an agenda when you decided to register on our forums after what has happened but we wont entertain any more of this stupid conspiracy woe is me attitude.
