After recently learning that TM was banned for 30 days from the pub for jokingly posting a picture of Shroomism in the "hobo" thread I decided to make this post. That seems a little harsh in my honest opinion. If it was me or many others I know on the boards he had posted a picture of we would have laughed it off in good fun. Why was that grounds for a banning? It's not like there isn't a ton of pics of shroomism already here on the boards. It seems to me like he was banned for the sole reason that shroomism is a mod and got upset because of a personal grudge with trip.

Well, it's not as simple as that, Matt. The fact that it was Shroomism and given the history, the joke was misconstrued as a flame/troll.
The last thing I want to do is start that whole issue up again and maybe I should've thought twice before joking around that way.
Even so, 30 days does seem quite excessive for such a minor offense.
I'll never do anything like that again, regardless of the outcome here.
Something tells me that this thread will be dumped really quickly.

Well I just wanted to voice my opinion on the matter because I think you got the raw end of the stick here.

Yeah, no doubt about that. 30 days is quite excessive, as I said, especially for a veteran user and supporter.
I'm truly sorry I drank one too many glasses of Manichewitz last night.

I got 30 days' community service for feeding a stray dog LSD and fucking him up the butt. We just never know.

neither veteran-ship nor supporter-ship are not supposed to net anyone special privileges to keep themselves from being banned.

Yeah it was a cheap shot!~
The Pub Mods are trying to clean up the Pub... anyone that steps over the edge will be dealt with the same way that TM was.
No more cheap shots or flaming will be tolerated in the Pub... you wanna play like that...go take that kind of crap out in OTD. Then deal with the OTD crew coming down on your ass!~
You wanna play nice stay in the Pub...where its suppose to be fun and safe. You wanna get down and dirty...hang out in OTD...if you dare!~
Pretty simple!~
There was no bias on the 30 day ban from the Pub on TM as far as I know.
Doesn't matter if your a long term member, supporter or stroke Ythan off on a regular basis... break the rules in the Pub and your gonna pay the price!~
Maybe Pappy will come in here and explain his revamping of the Pub in more detail.

I can't stand when someone gets hung out to dry in order to make "an example" out of them. The governments do it, but that's because they're pieces of shit. I wouldn't expect to see it done to people on here.
30 days is ridiculous and if he gets a ban at all it should be shortened to 3 days.
