Daaauyum they finally got the duck for good

 

[Raven117]

I would like to thank the mods for banning Cockatrice (sp) but not banning me for responding pretty aggressively to some of his posts. I’ll try and just flag in the future instead of lighting into someone. That child just got on my nerves more than most.

 

[Varteras]

Please bring Senjutsu Sage back man. Gaf is not the same without him.

Ban this man. Now.

 

[Holammer]

I don't check regularly at all, except when there's talk of someone getting banned, like now.
Oh hey, not long till Rotif's timeout is over.

 

[Topher]

Every day I look for Ass of Can Whooping

 

[Ass of Can Whooping]

stop mentioning me you cunts

 

[nush]

stop mentioning me you cunts

Reported.

 

[Jaybe]

I can usually predict who will be banned, it’s just a matter of time to see it reflected in the list, so fun to check in on it once in a while.

Same. I usually note how combative a poster is. Then it's just a matter of how many warnings and temporary bans they get. The outcome is almost always the same.

Virtually all of the warnings and infractions I've received were because I treated them the way they treated others. Only to watch them get perma bans not long after.

 

[Jesb]

Didn’t even know it was a thing. Wouldn’t even know where that is.

 

[Nydius]

I check it almost every day to see if I’m on it. But then I remember if I was on it, I’d get a full page notice.

Edit

Please bring Senjutsu Sage back man. Gaf is not the same without him.

Follow him on X/Twitter. He posts most of the same stuff there he would post here. I, personally, don’t miss him and if I want to get his batshit crazy take on something Xbox related, I know where to look.

 

[Grildon Tundy]

I'll only check it when I'm in a thread and see someone I recognize has a new strikethrough on their name. Like today when I saw some new ones come through from what I think went down in the Dr. Disrespect thread.

 

[DAHGAMING]

I swear you and Ass of Can Whooping are the same person.

I understand but we are different, both strong warriors but with different beliefs.

 

[DaciaJC]

I made it my browser homepage.

 

[Trogdor1123]

Bottom of the site.

I had no idea, thanks!

 

[Kacho]

I check every other day for ban message lulz. It’s a cool feature.

 

[amigastar]

Never, dont really care.

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

Every once in awhile looking for some of the usual suspects I expect to make appearances there

 

[dorkimoe]

i checked it just once after i got an infraction to see if the mods names were listed on that page, Feel like the mods should have to put their names on infractions so i know which one to avoid (unless it was you evilore then i accept)

 

[Magic Carpet]

The only time I see bans is when threads are necro bumped they contain lots and lots of banned posters. Don't even need to look at the dates, just the line through the name.

 

[SHA]

Theres many that check just to see if I have been banned yet, then left sad to see im still here pushing my extremist Xbox views on everyone

Any reasons for liking xbox?
Me, asymmetrical sticks
Shooters,
Wrpgs,
PC games on Xbox,
Formerly an online player,
Backward compatibility,
Sales.

 

[NotMyProblemAnymoreCunt]

Now that you put attention to that page, I've been looking at it a ton. Some of the usernames got me cracking up

Pretty much the same as yourself, I like all systems realy but I do main Xbox, I did think to ise my my PS5 for my multi platform system this gen but still stuck with Xbox, seem to get the games quite abit cheaper.

 

[freefornow]

Every day! I like reading the more "biting" Mod reasons.

 

[Soodanim]

Once in a blue moon. It's less interesting without being able to see the post that made someone a winner

 

[Dacvak]

I didn't even know this existed!

I'd love to see the stats of the frequency of bans from like ~15-20 years ago versus now.

 

[R6Rider]

About once a week usually. If there's a controversial topic then I check daily.

 

[nush]

eel like the mods should have to put their names on infractions so i know which one to avoid

Mods have normie accounts they spend most of their time posting on. So, play nice that poster you are giving shit to could be a mod Alt.

 

[SirTerry-T]

I miss seeing the link to the offending posts in question.

 

[DonkeyPunchJr]

Mods, let me know if you’re hiring someone to write those little “fuck you” messages

 

[Brigandier]

Nearly every day I love the witty ban reasons:

 

[IFireflyl]

Ass of Can Whooping , much like Elon Musk did with Bernie Sanders, I keep forgetting you're still alive.

 

[OverHeat]

rofif is coming back soon…

 

[Brigandier]

rofif is coming back soon…

I noticed that and sighed, the king of bad opinions.

 

[Goalus]

"Console warrior and gamepass shill"
"Over 14 warnings, all for one sided criticism while defending your favorite plastic box. You are a console warrior through and through. We gave you enough chances."

Damn, I feel threatened

Scotty W will be dearly missed
His command of the woke language is second to none.

 

[Brigandier]

"Over 14 warnings, all for one sided criticism while defending your favorite plastic box. You are a console warrior through and through. We gave you enough chances."

To be fair 14 warnings is very lenient lol.... Shame because he's been here nearly 20 years, But that also tells me he is around 35-40 years old

 

[Sojiro]

I never knew this existed lol. Even still doubt I would actively check it? Maasaybe once a month....maybe

 

[digital_ghost]

Like once a week, love pouring one out when a homie gets a perm.

You have a problem with homie's with perms?

 

[drganon]

Daily. It always brightens my mood when I see idiots like the duck get permed.

 

[cjp]

If there’s an edgy ban reason I’ll check the poster’s history to get the juicy details.

How? Checking a banned poster’s history errors out for me.

 

[DenchDeckard]

I check every few days. It's interesting to see what people get banned for.

I then enjoy checking their post history for the spice!

 

[Ozzy Onya A2Z]

Probably once a month or so. It's been a great source of GAF entertainment over the years. Those ban messages are some of the best mods best work on the site.

 

[RagnarokIV]

How? Checking a banned poster’s history errors out for me.

Hover the mouse over their name and select their post count, instead of their username. It will take you to their posts.

 

[Mr.Phoenix]

Never knew it even existed.

Now I know.

 

[Pelta88]

Often during the ABK acquisition. Vitriol had them dropping fast…

 

[FlyyGOD]

Some of the criteria for strikes are not very consistent. Who can you contact If you wanted some clarity on what is a violation?

 

[mansoor1980]

 

[SlimySnake]

Every time i want some cunt fanboy banned. Then i see some other corporate stooge on the ban list and my faith in humanity is restored.

 

[TheThreadsThatBindUs]

The ban history is Gaf's testament to renewing my faith in internet gaming message boards.

Seeing how frequently the most irrational platform warriors and trolls are listed there reassures me that Gaf mods are doing a solid job. And it's not just warriors for one single platform, so it demonstrates the lack of bias in the site moderation.

I appreciate that.

 

[Filben]

There's a ban history page?

That's my answer on how often I check it.
