Manic -
I'm sorry, but I can't find any emails from you. I don't know your email address, but I just looked through, and cannot find one related to the issue.
I just checked, and the IP you have been using is the same IP used by two brand new accounts created on Oct. 27th, (Neo_Vortex and Lifehalved) to log in and post profanity laced attacks against the work of others and DB itself. The other moderators were right in banning the IP and those accounts.
The problem is, it's from the same IP you have right now. It's not from the IP at your friend's house, whatever that may be. If you would like to email me about the issue, please send it to
guy@nmisoftware.com. You say you were at a friend's house, but it's your IP where the posts originated.
As for Vegeta's comments, I know he likes to make up facts and forget details. He was banned because:
1) He repeatedly attempted to tell people what to post and what not to post.
2) He repeatedly chastised other members for using 3D terminology he did not consider standard, claiming that anyone dedicated to "the art" agrees with him, and all those who disagree are amateurs.
I asked him repeatedly, both in public forum posts and private messages, to leave people alone.
He told me via private message (paraphrased) that if I did not like his attitude, it was too bad, he was not going to change, and wasn't going to explain.
Ultimately, it was his public post that motivated the moderators to vote on banning him. He wrote, on the forums, "
If you feel I have been out of order to someone, then lock the thread to prevent others from responding and put me on a ban for it!"
He has since sent me ultimatums via email, etc. *rolls eyes*
Alas, I've wasted more time on the topic than I originally intended.
I'm a scoundrel because the RGT moderators banned an IP where immature profanity based attacks originated? *sigh*
