Why all the bans?

[nostalgiaquest]

Why'd all the regular posters get banned?

i'm new here, does it have to do with the fact there are 14 people logged in and 50000+ guests on? what's going on exactly

Who got banned?

[DeathsSilkyMist]

I am assuming this is referring to the "Joke Time" thread, which is gone now. At least 1 year ago the forum mods made it clear that political discussions were discouraged on the P99 forums, P99 official discords, in-game, etc. because of how vitriolic people were getting.

"Joke Time" basically stopped being about Jokes, and was becoming political from what I remember. So I am assuming the people who were being political in that thread got a ban.

EDIT: Link to the announcement regarding political discussions - https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...d.php?t=428045

Total mischaracterization of what happened recently.

Rob threw a fit about his imagined demons and Ekco obliged his mental illness.

Then Rob reported the thread for confirming his imagined demons.

Rob is a sick man.

Wrong. All wrong

He wouldn’t do that. And his word contains no serious weight here

Only one person’s opinion ultimately matters in the end here: Cd288

He was on, as he has been before, when the thread got nuked. The last time. And the time before that. And before that

He has said the rules multiple times in the past before threads got nuked. As in right before

There are one of 3 scenarios here:

1. It is an alt account of a mod

2. He has very good friends who are mods

Or

3. He has donated quite a lot of $ over the years. Possibly on the monthly sub sort of setup

I learn towards scenario 2. I don’t fault for any of them though, it’s not my place to criticize how someone spends their money, and this game gives as much or more entertainment value to the regular players than any other form of media they could purchase. And I don’t even play the game, hence having a different opinion than people who do

The only thing that irks me is that he also doesn’t strike me as a frequent lurker here. He normally only posts in RnF and I had figured doesn’t really read here. What I am guessing is that he pops in for a minute, reads the last four or five posts of the top thread, says “THIS SIMPLY WILL NOT DO” for roughly the 5th time. And reports. Then sits in a quiet content puddle of Power for about 20 minutes. And goes on with his day

That’s only a guess. I can’t truly know what someone thinks or does. I could be very wrong. And even if I’m right, I still don’t fault it. I would respect it slightly more if it were someone who regularly posted on and actually read this section, and therefore was tired of sifting though all the political bullshit to do so. But to me it is more likely to be a brief weird flex. Which is fine if true

No one else really cares enough to report. And when it comes to reports being heard, dude may as well be Rogeon or whoever your mod god is

Are you saying that cd288 is Diddlydee? 2 mysterious individuals both seemly with the server staff in their pockets (or they in the staff's pocket rather)

No idea, as I said, I don’t play

All I know is he does not want people to know what his char name is

But that’s 100% who did it, and not just this time, for the past 4ish times

Rob wouldn’t do it. He enjoys trolling too much. If he was getting too pissed he’d just take a break. Or if he was going to report he would probably announce it first. But like I said, he wouldn’t do it

And the mods didn’t do it. They seem to not want to be bothered. Which is why it would take someone with some in game clout, such as a close relationship, to get them to act. Or at least to act as fast as they did

And if he ever feels like coming in and reading any of this, he would have no problem confirming it was him. He’s not in the wrong, technically
