Come back Vuurk don't leave.

Why do you say that? Slayer_of_Bugs

I'm not saying it out of any malice towards vuurk, as that would make it seem that I care, but he must have done something that was actually a bannable offense.
OT is a lot lax when compared to how it used be, like 2 years ago. So when someone does get banned, it's pretty hard to imagine it being the fault of anyone but the user's.

From all of the posts of his that I've seen recently, he hasn't broken ToS. Slayer_of_Bugs

since you haven't been able to find anything that he posted that is in violation to the ToS, maybe he asked one of the mods to ban his account.

but since we aren't vuurk, we are left with mere speculation.

that is until they un-ban him.

The aesthetics were not with him

He was able to predict the economic crisis but not his own banning? Hmm... But anyway, he was a good user who contributed to OT and brought awareness of economics. That's cool. I at least will miss him and wish him well.michaelP4

The only way Vuurk would have increased peoples' understanding of economics is through the posts of all the people refuting his vague and unsubstantiated bullsh!t.

[QUOTE="dave123321"]I really hate the people who got rid of KC. Goddamn moronstheone86

Yes, I so miss being talked down to by someone who presents evidence that disproves his own argument, yet believes completely in the infallibility of his arguments and thinks that the reason no one listens to him is because they're all brainwashed. At least Vuurk respected argumentation, even if he did believe that everyone who disagreed with him was just ignorant of economics.

I didn't know KC did that, from what I saw his main tactic was to ignore every single thing pointed out in rebuttals to him and repeat his original points over and over again.

He will not be missed.

So step up and be the new Vuurk. You're almost there already.:P

Who?

[QUOTE="Laihendi"][QUOTE="Toxic-Seahorse"] To be honest it was a better place in my opinion. The new ToU didn't make anything better, it just went from one extreme to another. It's good to see that they are actually starting to ban people now though.

if Vuurk wasn't interesting I don't think we'd have this big of a thread about him.

So he was banned for mocking liberals? I don't care his threads are boring but that seems like a double standard to me.DaBrainz

*sigh* That isn't why he was banned. If that were ture, at least 10 people would have been banned here. And quite a few more who routinely mock conservatives.

A good point, but a wasted one here. Vuurk wasn't an interesting user.

Many of days I have preached against the dangers of the Moderator. We all know how people on the internet are. Why would they give these people power? Let us bring down not only Jim but moderation as a whole! Let us be sans moderation! And if we can't do that it would be really nice to get rid of Jim.

If Jim would like to quell this uprising I suggest he posts and explains his reasons for banning Vuurk.

1. Asking to be banned.

2. Discussing tranny porn quite a bit.

3. Trolling

As least that's why I saw.

Equating a private forum with the justice system might just be one of the dumbest things I've seen here all week.

Pretty much. He'd been trying to get himself banned for ages. He finally got his wish.

I agree. He wasn't capable of independent thought, so it really couldn't be his fault for breaking the ToS.

Also, it is good to have a pet around so why not a parrot

then why is there so much discussion about him? Clearly something about him is interesting.

I think he was too embarrased to come back TBH; I don't think it has that much to do with integrity.

I suppose not. Thus moderator discretion.

Is this a loss or gain? I don't really post here enough to care.

whiskeystrike

A gain. Political discussions can only benefit from the removal of Libertarian chuckleheads. That being said, I wish surreal would come back, craziness and all. I liked him.

Oh yeah, I forgot to add that they should also be sent to e-re-education camps. It's for their own good.
