Alright so here's the deal. This is the last chance we're giving banter. Spam till your heart is content, but any excessive fighting or trolling will result in immediate warnings or bans, from either the Banter board or from the site itself depending on the severity of the incident. This is your final warning hence the name. Also, keep all Sims chat out of here, it'll get its own special thread momentarily. Have fun. Don't screw it up.-Admins I think a lot of the opposition and "saltiness" being displayed right now is because of things like this. As a college-educated adult, I feel somewhat offended about how we Banterists are always lumped together and treated like children. From my memory (and again, my OG account that I deleted on my own was from 2006 and I've been a hardcore banterist from 2008), every time Banter has been locked was because of a handful (like, 2 or 3 max) of people and few naughty posts spanning 3-10 pages. A lot of people, myself included, don't appreciate the whole thread being locked/vaporised and then everyone as a group being scolded instead of just the bad apples. It just seems elementary. Why does everyone have to miss recess just because one kid was being bad? |

I need to make a checklist of all the games I still need to beat. Quite a long list.  |

The more things change the more they stay the same.

*controversial post* *mod locks thread* *admins blow thing out of proportion* *create separate threads for no reason* *wonders why we have a problem* You left out the part about people blowing it getting locked out of proportion. And the part about people crying about change when it is unlocked. And blowing it out of proportion when a new thread is created instead of the old one being unlocked. Otherwise pretty solid list. |

Oh my God. Get the  over it. It's done.  Let's get back to how things were. We have two threads. One for Banter and one for Sims. Big deal. If you want to read/write Sims it won't be that big of a deal to go to another thread. |

Otherwise pretty solid list. tbh, I don't see no reason why we need two separate threads: Banter, from the moment I first posted here, was for everything. Anything you wanted to talk about. And there is no reason, nor does it take much effort, to delete said controversial posts and unlock the thread. But I'm not going to say anything no one else hasn't already said. |

And I love how no one in "charge" has responded to Jame---I mean, Big Boss' post. It's spot on and shouldn't be ignored.
