Yeah for those who don't know chris was banned sometime this week and is no longer able to visit the forums, but I believe he wasn't given a fair shake.

I mean I don't mind Gekko but I think in this case he was wrong. I mean he has some sort of personal vendette against Chris and was waiting for any little slip up to ban him. I mean I don't Chris was warned... I don't think he asked him to remove the pic.. I think he just banned him.....

I mean I know GT is run by a dictatorship but there has to be some rhyme and reason to these forums or else.. well it will just be some power hungry folks doing as they want.....

I'm not saying Chris was right for posting the pic but I say he deserves a 2nd shot maybe with a penalty like a halved post count or something but till another chance....

Anyone else agrees?

[Snake]

I agree! I know what he did wasn't right, but look at what all the other members have done, and they haven't been banned.

Just give him another chance.. :unsure:

[PureEvil]

I guess this works... Okay, just to be fair, I'll give you a link to the pic.

I'm not forcing anyone to load this, you have to click on it at your own will, so it's fine:

Chris posted that in a topic suggesting that LoudHoward post it in order to get banned(LoudHoward was asking for ways to get banned, if you'll recall).

As far as I've come to understand, gekko deleted the topic, and banned Chris. Upon posting the pic again(This time by me), it was deleted again(That wasn't nice, Brian. I can't say I enjoyed that).

So, for you to judge if it was deserving of Chris to be banned or not, there's the pic.

(And Brian... Don't delete it. If you don't want to see your face with some suggestive wording... Don't click the link. I'm serious. Don't delete it.)

[GameMaster]

I have to agree with BaB and Snake on this one. It's really no different than directing a verbal insult towards someone. I think gekko just got caught up in his own personal rivalry with Chris and misused the "power" that comes with his position here at GT. Speaking for all who have made poor choices one time or another ;) , give Chris a second try.

BTW, good to see you all :D

[TheGrimReaper]

I dont even know what happened...

can someone fill me in?

[fingersman]

LOL nice pic........I do think Gekko over reacted.....I mean people have done worst and have been warned ...but that's just my opinion ......it's up to the staff to decide if the banning was justified or not

[Fez]

I'm suprised he didn't ban me after what I said :D :D

But it's a little harsh a ban..I thought you were talking about goatse or something, infact it's hella harsh. But I don't mind because nwochris was a fool at times. But he liked DONKEY KONG MAN!

And anyway, you said you always win arguments. To win you should've posted a funnier pic ;) Coward.

On second thoughts, banning him is pretty funny.

[Xantar]

gekko couldn't take the heat.

*walks away laughing*

[Perfect Stu]

That's stupid...Chris shouldn't have been banned...give me a break...

Just an immature comment and a stupid picture that means nothing...

On AIM in chats EVERYbody get's called a f@g (or worse), does that mean I don't talk to them anymore? NO...I'll tell them to f*ck off, then call them a f@g back...no harm done...

Bring Chris back!

[BreakABone]

On a side note that picture is till funnie as hell... hahahha

bwhhahahahahah

Now Gekko if you really took no offense to it why did you ban him?

[BigJustinW]

I think that Chris asked for it... I mean, who calls a leader a ***?

Posting at GT is a Privilege not a right

If you were an Admin, and Chris (or anybody else) took a picture of you and made it like that, I'm sure you would have banned him too. I mean, really, you can't tell me you wouldn't be pissed.

nWo goes out and does it to the Admin with the shortest fuse, he was asking to be banned.

nWo is a cool guy, and I have nothing aganst him, but he made a stupid mistake, period... I would be pissed if someone took a pic of me and called me a ***, so I can understand why he banned him.

(and IF he already has a little "beef" with Gekko, he was begging to be banned)

[Shadow_Link]

I would have to tend to agree with BJW here (:eek: ).
It was uncalled for, and unspeakably stupid, especially when it reffered to Gekko, who mind you, doesn't take sh*t or give a crap :D, though acts like a 1 amp fuse with 30 amps of current burning through it :D...

All in all though, it's not a matter of whether he will be reinstated or not, but a matter of when... These things aren't permanent... Unless... :p

My smilies look better :p

[Shadow Fox]

And yet another senseless ban...geez Gekko, I'm sure you've heard or seen worse insults than this, so there's got to be another reason why Chris was banned. Tell us what the real deal was...

I hardly think he's caused the forums any trouble; hell- didn't anybody really know he was banned, or posted the pic, until it started popping up as a topic in the boards...:rolleyes:

[gekko]

It was the pic that got him banned. I'm sure he's done worse than *** before.

Call me a *** and I laugh at you. Post my pic and call me a ***, I ban you, then laugh at you. Get how I work? My life doesn't stop either way, but one gets you banned, one doesn't.

Ever since Cam left, the axe has been put in the closet and you've basically gone on saying and doing whatever you feel like, with no punishment. Calling someone a *** can get you banned, and all of you know that. But since the rules haven't been enforced for the past few months, I may allow Chris back into the forums, assuming this served as a good enough warning.

You guys know the rules, and you know you can get banned everytime you break them. So go ahead, take your chances, just don't complain the time the rules get enforced.

[Shadow Fox]

lol, gotta love Gekko's reasoning here....:D

*waits for Chris to come back*

[Ravishing Rick Rude]

Meh, Do whatever the **** you want.

But don't let personal feelings get in the way.

[Bond]

Being an Administrator is much like being a politician. Being a politician you must separate church and state, being an Administrator you must separate your own personal feelings from the forums. I must admit at the forums I Admin at there are quite a few people I dislike, but would I ban them because of that? Of course not!

If you are going to ban Chris (who personally I don't like) for expressing his opinion then you have to ban me for also expressing my opinion. Frankly you would have to ban the entire forums. Every single day people express their opinions, does that mean they will be banned from the Earth? Of course not!

[Jason1]

LMAO!!! I Love that pic!

[Joeiss]

Well, I think this is all gekko's fault. I mean, come on. You give us a picture of you, and some people do not like you. Did a thought ever cross your mind that somebody will tamper with it? This all could have not happened if Gekko didn't show us that picture of his face.

[LoudHowardZERO]

I liked that little Mother ****er... well kinda... BRING HIM BACK!

And that is a Threat :mad2:

[Ravishing Rick Rude]

Loudhoward,

What are you trying to prove? that you fail miserably at everything in life?


Stop being such a ***** and actually do something you ***got

Actually, think about it for a moment... Gekko is a member as much as he is an admin... So taking that into account, I am sure that the same result would have taken place if a picture of another person at the forums had been tampered with and ridiculed... I don't think abusive action (whatever you may wish to call it) is permitted against fellow members at the forums, which is a rule that Chris broke unfortunately...

Did I ever give you a picture of me? You joined when? Last April? that picture was taken in 2000. That picture is old, and it was Shooter who brought it back. I didn't even remember where it was.

In fact, now that I think of it, that pic was taken before GT was around. I never showed you the picture, someone else did.

Think about it, if I banned people I didn't like, there would be a forum of no more than 20 people, and you would've lasted more than a day.

Would i still be a member under the Gekko Regime?

:D

The Gekko Regime sounds scary....

And I don't consider banning Chris an abuse of power.. what you want Chris to do to return is an abuse

[gekko]

I'll more than likely let Chris back tomorrow. Then give him a couple days, he'll screw up again. He only gets one more shot.

Well, considering neither of us are fortune tellers lets not try to predict the future. Now I can't tell you if Gekko would ban someone if they posted a mean picture up about me, but we can both have our own opinions about that. But the fact remains that he banned Chris for one thing. Now, does everyone remember that guy who posted a topic with 75% of the words being curse words? I think he should have at least been warned and/or banned on the spot. I see no difference from that from what Chris did, other then it attacked Gekko. Now from what I've heard Chris didn't even post this from himself to Gekko, he was just merely giving it out to the public. I could most a picture of myself looking like an idiot and no one would care.

You say that know, but I must ask why you didnt say this in the first place? Which would have stopped this uprising.

[gekko]

An who posted with 75% of the words swear words? Only person I can remember is Shooter, and he attacked me plenty of times. Pretty funny if you ask me.

That would be Heen05. That post was funny because it was so stupid. :D

Damnit! I'm sorry, gekko. I hit the Edit button instead of the Quote button without realizing it.

Um...hope you remember what you said.

[Ravishing Rick Rude]

Hell, I hate this ****, Why can't this ****ing **** just stop already?

**** you all.

Ah go to hell.

If I banned everyone I didn't like..holy ****..it'd be pretty damn boring.

[Ravishing Rick Rude]

If i banned everyone i hated.,

the only members would be the ones i can't ban

I agree. If the truth hurts that much, don't post your ugly mug. :cool:
