tuareg Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 What-the-f*ck? Probably a temp ban, but still. Jarjar?! Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/264973-jared-busted/#findComment-4009811 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deuce Deuce Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 About an hour ago it said he was busted with the top set of bad stars but with still 5 karma, now he has no karma. I'm skeptikal as to why such a contributing and helpful member with 5 karma got busted in a blink of the eye. If this isn't some sort of mistake, then he must have done something extremely bad/against the rules to warrant this.

Otter Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Temp bans won't put you in the BUSTED group. I think Jered had some personal issues with some mods.

tuareg Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 No way, jarjar is always the one who tells newer members to stick to the rules (or anyone else for that matter). He might have done something though. Yeah well, probably Edit: @Otter: So, its not a temp ban then?

Otter Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 The fact remains - this place is not a democracy. Mods don't need a reason to ban you. I fear Jared got lippy with a certain moderator, got into a debate, and wouldn't let it go. Should be a lesson to all of us : pick and choose your battles. I hope, however, that he's reinstated. He was up for a ledby position. Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/264973-jared-busted/#findComment-4009829 Share on other sites More sharing options...
*gta star* Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Well if he was getting 'lippy' , he deserved what he got to be honest. Shouldn't get lippy with people who have more forum authority than you, so if he did get temporarily banned for that, it was deserved.

tuareg Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 They say he sent a PM to GT-1 telling he's a douchebag and crossed it. If thats the reason than i cant wonder why he got banned.

TheDude5000 Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 His sig seems to be hosted by illspirit, so maybe it was him who he insulted.

Jarjar didn't have to necessarily insult illspirit for him to ban him; he could have insulted any member of staff and have any of the staff could have banned him. Doesn't make a difference.

Otter Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 If a mod ever backs you into a corner, you should forward the PM to an administrator. Flaming the mod in return is a bannable offense.

YeTi Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 About an hour ago it said he was busted with the top set of bad stars but with still 5 karma, now he has no karma. Someone with access to the ACP did it then, rather than setting his karma to -5 which would ban him, he was moved into the Busted member group, which would leave his karma intact.

Someone with access to the ACP did it then, rather than setting his karma to -5 which would ban him, he was moved into the Busted member group, which would leave his karma intact. So then it must be illspirit. Because the picture used in his sig was hosted on his domain (www.illspirit.com) and we ALL know that he's an admin.

Someone with access to the ACP did it then, rather than setting his karma to -5 which would ban him, he was moved into the Busted member group, which would leave his karma intact. This man speaks the truth. And quoting MmMs indirectly from Z Chat: "JarJar banned?" he's not the one so it must have been a sole admin, without a quick discussion in the place where "only the yellow ones can wander" Anyway, I smell the fact that this is just a mix-up and that he's back soon. EDIT: @Edmachine: People do not get banned from using illy's host, just like that. At least normally, you don't. And he was a led-by and/or active the mod scene, making it possible he is in contact with illy which can result in a "go-ahead, use my host" message. Hope that clears a bit up.

Greene Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 I just saw that he was Busted a minute ago. I was pretty suprised that he would get banned of all people. This is the last guy I'd expect to insult a mod. No offence to jarjar he's a cool guy but he was a bit of a kiss ass to mods.

Waddy Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Nobody knows why its happened, but it has. Its just assumption. Maybe we should wait and see if we are told why he was banned.
