I got banned today on Facepunch, for one day, for the reason; “Keeps making threads in the wrong section. Think next time.”
The thread in question is a thread that was approved by one of the elder mods… the irony. What wasn’t approved was where I posted it. I posted it in the Hardware/Software forum.
Apparently my “Guys… can’t you teach me how to compare hardware” thread was supposed to be in the Tech Support forum.
Tell me. Who in the right mind thinks a ‘help me learn’ request belongs in the Tech Support forum? There is OTHER kinds of help requests, that have NOTHING to do with Tech Support!!
That’s…. that’s it. I’m done asking Facepunch for help with my lock up issue. I’m going to [H]ard|Forum.com for help. If I get banned from that, then I’ll go to another PC Help site. If I get banned for that, then I’ll go to another..and another…and another.
Does this mean I’m done with Facepunch all together? No. Just with the Hardware/Software section. I’m still pissed over this stupid ban that I didn’t do anything wrong except made a mistake of not knowing if it should go in Tech Support or not.
So to keep it from happening again, I’ll just stop posting in that section.
Fortunately, I still have BeaverMon, my main. It’s not against the rules to post on another account while your other account is banned. I can use him to post my “Help me with my lock up issue!” thread to [H]ard|Forum.com. However I’m having a hard time thinking of how to explain it to a non-Gmod based forum.
If it’s not bad enough. Either it’s my cable modem having one of it’s slow speed episodes, or Facepunch is REALLY slow tonight.
