Why is he banned? I was just talking to him on irc and he says he was suddenly banned without any PM or email, or any type of warning. If it was about his sig then surely you could just have edited it, he probably didn't know about the crackdown on signature images. Is this a temp ban? If not, would you consider removing…

He is banned alright but I didnt ban him.
I'll ask about but I doubt he would be banned for his sig unless it was really offensive.

had he linked something from another site? sometimes they replace the pic with something offensive to ward off bandwidth hogs.

Noone would get banned for just breaking the sig rules...

I seem to recall a situation involving #MEAT#, a sig picture that had been altered to a porn pic without him noticing, and him being given the boot.

the thing with the horse was ceasar bojangle.
#meat# had a picture of a cat or something in his sig and it was replaced with male genitalia by the site he was linking from.

I dont know why Mirv is banned, I'll
talk to the other admins tomorrow and see what the score is.

I'm not unbanning him until I find out why he was banned in the first place. Its not like your finger can slip 12 times now is it

Once again i didnt mean that, i keep all my picture in the one folder, some dirty some not, as they are all numbered such as 13,27,28 and so on i uploaded the wrong image. Its an easy mistake. I am gonna shut up now, so as to attract less attention towards myself.
