I knew you crushed on him really and this post proves it

I hope it’s just a temp ban. He was one of the few posters to be personable. The rest of us are just autist trolls.

Hopefully just a suspension, he's a goog guy

I love that baler is still getting forum bans in 2020

[Trexller]

Sooo why did he get banned?

bump

[Dural_Levant]

I'm super surprised by this, to be honest. Baler was one of the few people from the forums that I had a chance to interact with in game on Green.

He was kind and very generous with his time and knowledge. He's a Project 1999 True Believer and his enthusiasm is infectious.

I mean he did admit to occasionally shit posting, but that's not exactly uncommon among most of the people who interact on these forums.

I genuinely hope its only a temporary ban.

[DMN]

Didn't he get banned a few months back for posting some link/information about "beating" the AFK checks on legacy camps with some kid of program? or was that someone else? Hrmmm.

[Jimjam]

He also admitted in engaging with 'forum pvp ban quest', wherein you try bait other posters into getting banned. Perhaps he lost at his own game.

Regardless,

Thoughts and Prayers.

I got temp banned last month for posting the same news article I have posted 17000 times (MACE QUEST), so maybe some of the new mods are taking things a little too seriously. Getting banned for posting in RnF seems really stupid since this forum is a literal toilet.

[fastboy21]

I'm also concerned about it...Baler could be a ball-buster, but he frequently entered zones in newbie areas and would just shout "who needs help with anything" --- which p99 needs more of.

OFC, it doesn't mean he wasn't doing something dirty on the down low. The truth is out there. **whistles x-files theme**

Do you know what literally means? Or do you literally have a toilet shaped computer or something?

Fun fact: RNF used to be a wild wild west of extremely mean-spirited flaming, casual racism, softcore porn, and politics both RL and elf.

You would have loved it

I've clicked a few threads with giant black ding dongs linked in them or men with their faces covered in something resembling baby food or a broth - nothing soft core about it

[Bardp1999]

Anyways, I just want to take this opportunity while Baler cant defend himself to say he is a giant cuck and i hope he catches internet AIDS

[fastboy21]

i hope he catches internet AIDS

Is this caused by an infection from chaffing while masturbating excessively to pron while tabbed out on a wizard? Asking for a friend.

[Snortles Chortles]

welp guess we're infected now

So fun fact about that word, "literally"... Its usage in a figurative sense has become so ubiquitous that dictionaries are updating their entries for it to reflect this.

Just one more reason to hate the world we live in more. Covid, Poverty, Racism...and this bullshit.

Completely off topic, but since this is RnF I give 0 Shits.

Wutang, I see you have a character named after a Wheel of Time creature. How do you think the series that is currently on hold from production due to covid is going to handle the magic system from that fantasy world?

I'm guessing lots of finger waggling, looks of constipation, hefty sighs, and varying thickness of ropes/strings that change have different colors fading after a few seconds.

Y'all Antonicans posting in a lulz thread

They have been talking about having different authors continuing the series since Robert Jordan died for like 5 years now it seems. Brandon Sanderson did a great job on the last 3 books and it actually got me reading his The Stormlight Archive series that I think is absolutely fantastic.

The Wheel of Time is not an easy... if they make more books I will read them because I am already like 9000 hours into the series but I am honestly not looking forward to them coming out. I would much rather Sanderson focus on the Storm Light Archives, Rothfuss finish his fucking Kingslayer Chronicles Books, and GRR Martin die and someone else finish GoT for him.

If you haven't read it, sanderson's "Mistborn" series is pretty good.

I started WoT back in the 90's when there was only like 4 or 5 books. I reread the series every time a new book would come out. I'm not sure how many hours I am in, but I am in deep.

Hating poverty and being poor aren't the same thing. Capitalist pig.

That's exactly how I used to read them too! I thought Sanderson did an ok job finishing, although certain choices he made I didn't love. I'm looking forward to the show! Be interesting to see how they adapt it from page to screen. Certainly helps that, in contrast to ASOIAF, that the source material is all finished. Hopefully if it does well they can avoid the crash and burn that were the last two seasons of GoT.

Sanderson did the best he could with what he had to work with. That's about the fairest way I can put it. With how many side stories and subplots Jordan was spinning it amazes me the thing got finished in as few words as it did.

I wouldn't mind seeing other authors dip into that world as long as they don't touch the main storyline. In a very Dragonlance sort of way where you just get... more interesting material to read. Certainly not canon material, but just more.

[Indecisive]

I'm hoping the Malazan books get picked up by someone, now that we're riding the fantasy wave full force. Maybe not the same "style" as Castlevania, per se, but the same sort of execution with animation would be ideal, imo.

As to grandpa Baler, I always had pretty good interactions with him. Hope his forum ban isn't a long one.

Yeah, I've always thought that with how much depth Jordan wrote into the world it would be fertile ground for other authors to tell other stories in the setting. So many good opportunities in there for stories set before, and after, the events of the main story.

[Endorra]

I logged in the other day to find that Baler had PM'ed me happy birthday before the hammer fell on him.

Now I'm sad.

I read all these also - Would be a cool series to watch

He did the same to me. He’s a good egg.

high elf power grandpa

[Dolalin]

Baler offered my level 13-something warrior some free armour in EC once. He's ok.

This was just after he went apeshit at me here on the forums. :D

[Dolalin]

(We are on better terms now though)

[fastboy21]

Been a week since this was posted. Anyone know if Baler was only suspended?

Yeah nobody seems to have any information about the Baler ban, it would have been posted in this thread by now.

Somebody hit Baler on discord and get the inside scoop
