I hope that "Shredtail" never comes to warlight again.
Yeah, fuck you too. I hope he comes back, because he is a much better person than any other OT posters, myself included. He is certainly a much better person than you.
Shredtail is a good kid. The whole point of a permanent ban should be to rid WarLight of people we don't want. Permanent bans don't punish people, they prevent them from coming back ever again.
Temporary bans, on the other hand, are about punishing people. When you try to login and realise you're banned and can't use WarLight for a whole week - or however long the ban is - it does make your stomach churn. You generally get booted from all your multi-day games (some of which you've been playing in for up to six months and nearly winning in my case), you lose out on a lot and it gives you time to reflect.
I, for one, will never spam again or use the word 'f*gg*t'. I have Fizzer to thank for setting my head straight. A ban did me good. A permanent suspension would have simply made me more trollish. Anger kicks in after a while. People don't simply move on. Especially those that have a genuine attachment to the game as this kid has. I will probably buy a membership within the next year when I'm able. Maybe this kid will too.
Mercy is in you, Fizzer. We've just got to coax it out.
A VPN WILL hide your IP address. He either admitted it somewhere on the internet and got turned in, or used his main and his alt on the same IP. But you have to be incompetent to screw up getting banned with a VPN.
I think he made his account before he switched the VPN on. Either way, it was a stupid thing to do, but he's learned his lesson, and I don't think any less of him for it. Hell, when I was his age I drilled holes in the bottom of someone else's boat.
