"@Jordyad He misread it and thought it said 2018, yea that was his fault but banning someone for bumping and old thread is a stupid reason."
Not directed towards me but I want to address this, as I imagined it looked stupid for people who aren't active in the board. See, specially when we had the SvR section we would see quality posts get buried because of people bumping threads from 2011 to ask "how can i install x mod plzzzzzz" (when there are threads adressing most questions). It got to a really stupid point, were this rule had to be created.
" "Wasn't his first time" - It was his only post on the entire forum. "
Fair enough, I edited the post not too long ago when I realised that, I mistook your friend for another guy recently banned for the same reason.
"The low res thing was just a joke about it being a n64 game. Thought it was obvious but apparently not."
Well, I got it. But that's the thing, in the middle of your angry rant, it felt like you were trashing the years of dedication people have for these game, just because you got mad at a few situations that happened here. I mean, I'm not a fan of the 2K games, I didn't like your post, but I'm not gonna shit on your and the rest of the community's work because of it.
"Yes I did sound like a prick, I was mad when I wrote (Also the reason why I brought up that retard who got banned) that because you were spreading bullshit about my friend."
See it from my perspective, I already have stuff that I need to take care here, and I find a member who breaks a rule in his first post, the same rule that the staff is sick of reinforcing for 7/8 years now, not much after a respected member comes here and implies that Hova may have used his stuff without permission (on his behalf, he isn't active on these scenes anymore, so he probably forgot that he gave permission) so I research it, and Hova is indeed an active member on the 2K community that has used SLX work, how would I suspect that SLX gave permission and forgot? I, much like you, may have acted when I was pissed off, but am I being totally unresonable here?
Since you seen to have proved your point, I'm apologizing to Hova and reducing his ban to 7 days, I understand if he is angry and doesn't want to come back, but it is the fair thing to do.
