That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

I wonder, was it after Luigi was framed for murder? Because it could be the auto system banned you ultimately for making a reference to killing the rich. I heard they went on a spree banning accounts. After it happened I was on reddit and enthusiastically joined in like it was a full time job and there was no reddit push back, but then a month or two later my account did get violations for seemingly unrelated reasons and after a break where I got back on there wasn't a single post outside of pics where somehow I couldn't contribute as nothing seemingly goes through, there was no luigi posts left.

But I heard they did ban a bunch of accounts, and a lot of us were using all sorts of sort of ways to say we need to tune in and drop out and just find ways to play the new mario brothers game multiplayer. So it might be my fault, and my ilk, for you getting banned after that douchebad flagged you, and maybe got his whole crew of douchebags to flag you that seems like something a right wing gaming manfluencer subscriber would do.

Such a dumb thing for the guy to get all up in arms about too. How much was the game?

Game was eighty dollars, which I thought was too high. And, yeah, maybe a bot decided I meant the other Luigi.

80 is way high. What kind of asshole would take issue with someone thinking that was too high? Guy is a serious asshole. I remember paying 50 for Empire Total War, or more even I forget, and that was high, but that was over ten years back I forget. Previous total war games were like 30 if I recall, or less. And for that 50 plus dollars despite selling me a disk, I didn't even have a copy of the game myself but was directed to steam that made me ask for permission to play it every time and constantly ran in the background of my computer, or tried to, and spied on me seemingly.

Apparently linux people like steam, idk about that, looking to join linux, if I buy a game, especially for a lot of money, I want a physical copy that I don't need to ask for permission to play every time.
