...senseless. Then again I actually own a piece of baleen. Granted it was legally killed as part a subsistence hunt by native Alaskans.

I'd like to own a piece of baleen.
...Hear that, baleen?

HEY I HEARD YOU OWN BALEEN. So there any truth to these rumors?

oh he got banned?

Yes, it really was a hamfisted and self-destructive way to handle the recent concerns about the site. 5 stars.

He gott band?

I never have any idea what's going on with all the drama and bannings. I just want me some cant and/or stupid people videos.

Baleen got banned? Oh shit, does "portmanteau" not mean what I think it does!?

I think his ban got commuted to a suspension. Still he was merely setting up a life raft just in case this ship sinks.

Zircon got hit too. they will apparently be back on the 2nd.

He sleeps with the fishes.

Old Zircon should be paid real money for all he contributes to this site. Way to shit in your shoe.

Dear Support,

So, two of your sites tank in less than a year, two of your most prolific posters get a little concerned and plan a way of contacting users "just in case", and you suspend them?

I think a simple warning to both of them might have made you look better.

You keep doing shit like this and you polarize your userbase against you.

Why on Earth would you want to do this? And I'm not talking about us, really, I'm simply wondering why you would want to work on a site by convincing the users that you are a whimsical, hysterical ruler? Doesn't that generate more work for you by having the users pissed off and getting all belligerent on you like on the other site?

Suspended!
Suspension through: 2012-02-02
Break time

Who else was suspended?

Old Zyrcon

FREE BALEEN! FREE OLD ZIRCON! Occupy poeTV!

(seriously, support. WTF? Please don't turn us into poeNews)

this in-house "fight the admins!" bullshit is what destroyed poe-news. please don't bring it here...

We're all just worried about the site and bewildered at the response from management. I don't think there is going to be any insurrection, at least not if the arbitrary bans stop.

"this in-house "fight the admins!" bullshit is what destroyed poe-news. please don't bring it here..."
It's definitely part of it. I am AOK with short, temporary, capricious bans - in fact I think they are hilarious and should be celecrated - but the thought of losing baleen forever makes me sad.

Support is a coven of insane, vindictive old witches running this site from a cave full of human bones

All this drama... I had no idea. Also, no idea about poe-news and whatnot... *clicks naked cgi man video again*

A lack of all caps Tim & Eric meltdown comments is killing this site!

baleen and Old_Zircon are always with us, in our HEARTS.

Dear Support,

I don't even know who you are.

But I do know that this shit is really awful. You banned baleen for making sure we have a way of contacting each other if you pull the plug? Do you realize how unstable your actions have been to precipitate this need?

I don't even know how much you care about this website but I would really like to keep in touch with people here, at least peripherally through an internet site because they are some of the funniest fuckers anywhere.

I like baleen and Cena_mark. And dead cat, and pastorofmuppets and dozens of other characters. Please don't fuck this up. Please.

Stop this bullshit now. No one was banned.

There is no need for this bullshit here. None.

Two people were suspended for a week or until which time they can say they have the drama bullshit out of their system. poeTV is drama free and will stay that way.

The beatings will continue until morale improves!

I'd like to suggest that someone who is good at CSS make a new template for this site to make it look nicer and submit it to support.

Support is pretty open to suggestions. For example, on a thread once I suggested that a random view be displayed on the front page (instead of just a link for 'random') and lo! We have that now on the top left of the index.

And by "random view" I meant "random video"

derp

Well, Frank Rizzo was banned a little over a year ago. So at least since then.

I was banned. I have powerful enemies.

I got a week of suspension for the duct-tape fetishist.

In retrospect, I deserved it, but YOU ALL HAD TO KNOW.

i been banned twice for some bullshit but support is a dumb fuck who can't even delete comments right so you all get to enjoy me forever!

And Frank Rizzo is running an illegal diet pill pyramid scheme!


We're through the looking glass people....

Friendship is magic.

And THAT'S why you don't teach people lessons!
