If you haven't caught a ban, you're probably a mostly cordial person who doesn't have to worry about it.

But in general, bans result from posting:
1) Nudity
2) Ad hominem arguments/name-calling (either towards other members or mods)
3) Console warring
4) Politics/Endorsing genocide (lol as if that needs to be something written down not to do)
5) Slurs

Otherwise, this place is pretty lenient. We get to cuss!

Some of the blatant console bashing is allowed when it comes to certain companies with impunity it seems.
 
Nobody has been banned in 5 days.

This is one of the longest stretches without any blood being spilled. Surely someone must be due for a suicide?
 
Not often, I check it when I want a good laugh. My big problem with it is that the mods don't often post the context of the ban some sometimes it doesn't make sense. I assume they don't post it because they delete the post.

They should just censor it and provide the post link, though in some cases it's probably a cumulative thing. The mods haven't been as creative in the descriptions recently either, someone needs to step up their game there.
 
I only check it out when I see a new ban because I'm curious. But while I'm there, I go through it a bit to see if there's anyone else that I recognize.

The Gods of the GAF satiated their thirst for blood after the last time they opened the floodgates a few weeks ago.

How often do you check the ban history page and why? I find myself checking it quite regular.

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

Edit: here's the page https://www.neogaf.com/bans/

Surprised some people never knew of it.

Never knew of it and checked first time now... and, wow, it was great!

Loved the reasons of the permanent bans, like "idiot", "weirdo", etc.

Thanks for the reminder and will do it constantly from now on :messenger_tears_of_joy: 🫶

I didnt know it existed. You mentioned check the post history but how can you see someones post history that has been permed
 
It's the first thing I check when I come here, because I've got brain damage and the messages are funny.
 
I was very disappointed to see that nobody got banned on Christmas Day.

Still, always the chance for some blood to spill on New Year's!
 
Never (had no idea it's a thing), I don't even look at your guys/girls usernames when you post, so it makes no difference to me :messenger_face_screaming:
 
Didn't know that was a thing

God damn @ Marufuji. The mods reason is "Do the world a favor and kill yourself."

Wtf did the poor guy do lmao
 
"it's cruel to keep this ape in captivity. We free you, that you may go forth and post this image relentlessly across the wider internet."

Whenever I notice someone who I "internet know" gets banned I always look up the ban.

Then I scroll through gaf looking for their alts.

Can you share why James Sawyer Ford was upgraded to a perm? I agree the dude was annoying as hell, but he went from 1-2 months to permanent lol.

I saw where he started airing his grievances about the temp ban publicly on another forum. Guessing that was a factor.
 
I check it all the time. Only downside is when there's a permaban (excluding obvious boring spam accounts), the guilty post isnt always linked or something heinous or hilarious happened and I missed it (they uploaded a gross pic), since their latest posts werent the one that did it.

I give mods create for taking fast action, but sometimes too fast (LOL). I have never seen on any forum the permabanned guy's gross pic he did to go down in flames. On one hand, It's good i didn't see it, but curiosity wise always interested what it was.
