So it turns out joshsarena has been lying and making up spoilers over in the GotG boards...I hope for his swift banning:cmad::bh:

Is lying even a bannable offense? I mean, it's the internet. I thought lying was encouraged.
 
Kind of strange whenever a new account is opened on SuperHeroHype and the new account holder, instead of doing stuff on like Star Wars or Batman or something, tries to start politicial arguments without even getting to 30-50 posts.
I have seen a few people who almost never post outside of certain non-specific forums and I wonder that too if they are past banned members.

I always question, when someone joins this site, and the first place they go is the Political Forum. That is definitely a red flag...lol
 
Like that psychopath who joined just so she could argue in some thread about tipping.
 
I wonder about anyone who says they lurked for years and knows about certain posters or things that happened on specific boards.

Constant and malicious trolling is an offense.

Hm, seems like a slippery slope.

No slippery slope
FAQ said:
Trolling is considered the starting of a thread or posting in an established thread or forum for the express purpose of ticking off as many people as possible that would normally be reading that thread or forum. Trolling can result in a warning or probation. Continued trolling may result in banning.

When you go on a thread of a highly anticipated comic book movie, and pretend to be someone with information, and begin throwing out what is very much spoilerish information, you know that you are going to get a reaction....some is negative (ticked off people) and some that is positive...the intention was to set off a firestorm, that is trolling. This person signed up TO ONLY DO THAT.....they are now banned.

Of course they are. There's a few running around right now.
 
Feelings for you that he was afraid of dealing with because he was afraid of the consequences.
 
I have often wondered what those "lounge" threads, which I meticulously avoid, look like.

I suppose much like this?

The funny thing is that one started a political debate in the Superman/Batman discussion
Winning combination

Maybe
I remember one member said something making it sound official, he said it's something he made up on the same page or one page later, and a mod gave him probationary ban for that

Constant and malicious trolling is an offense.
And then there's this, which sounds like the case of unknown newbie ####xxx### of the year
