What if someone honestly needed to fake their death for tax reasons or something. I’m sure it would probably be illegal but would a forum really need to care about it? Maybe it’s because he was pretending to be his mom after he faked his death and it’s against the rules to let other people use your account so maybe that’s why he got permabanned? I’m confused now actually.

BANANA.MAN said: I had a post deleted the other day that didn't break any rules and was getting me +1s because it was in response to Asantes post that later decided to delete. just based on their own discretion admins can delete anyone's posts for any reason they pull out of their asses.
yet mods and admins will then follow the rules so autistically when it comes to someone breaking a rule that it doesn't matter why the acctual rule was put in place.
it was a performance people. let it fucking slide. its like how you can still smoke inside if its essential for theater even though its illegal to smoke inside. or how you can use someone else's intellectual property if its for parody. its for entertainment's sake.
Autistic rule following probably means banning you for using the term autistic in a derogatory manner

a poster who is clearly inventing a persona for theatrical purposes pretending to die as part of that constructed persona for entertainment purposes is not the same as someone faking their death for real. I would imagine the rule was put in place to stop people who acctually intend to convincing people they are dead. I dont think anyone was fooled by sunshine's joke and I dont think he expected anyone to be fooled. So I think my point still stands in that regard, regardless of whether or not everyone who says something that could be interpreted as derogatory is banned.
ik you're joking but thats not proof that whoever banned sunshine didn't go overboard on the rule following and overlook the reason for the rule.

I am joking.
I dunno wtf happened because I was on hiatus and truthfully I'm sad to see Sunshine gone, regardless of the reason, but it seems it was a reason not the reason.

When I was very new to the Shroomery I also didn't understand his posts and I thought he was just some troll. As I continued to see his posts I also began to think that maybe he was just very mentally ill so I was always nice to him and tried to make small talk. I still don't think he should of been banned for this. Maybe he had voices in his head telling him that he was going to be euthanized by the mob or something. But then again you see his account for sale on eBay.. Either way he is still a person who added some flavour to the Shroomery, good or bad.

I too didn't really "get" Sunshine's posts for a while actually lol.
After reading most of his posts I was usually left wondering "WTF is this dude going on about?"...or something along the lines of, "Is this dude fur-real?" lol
....but after a while I kinda "got it" and I thoroughly enjoyed sunshine's threads & posts and found some of them to be hilarious.
I definitely dug his character & style lol. I feel he'll always remain a classic & known member around here, a "staple" of the shroomery and the history of the forums lol.
