More and More I Start To Hate This Dump.

    This place has become a joke. The mods don't even moderate the forum properly. They rely wholly on pressing a button to solve a situation. No talking things over. Just a click and its done.

    The owner shows that he really doesn't give a damn anymore. He wants nothing to with the posters. Meanwhile, he's making money off of copy write infringement with the images and videos on the site. He even puts a watermark with the sites logo on the videos. Like he made them.

    Users are getting banned without any clear reasoning. Some of the reasons are just plain insulting. This isn't because of the Legion or because of Reaper's little group. Its because of the mods. The mods have forgotten their jobs.

    To the mods reading this:

    Talk things over with the offender.
    Banning should be the last resort.
    Banning should ONLY be done when its harmful to the forum. Not because you lack the social skills to do so.

    I swear to god, Retrojunk would be some much better if Vertex would just demote adventure_of_link and Caps 2.0 already. Seriously, WTF was Vertex thinking when they hired these guys as mods?!? They do such a poor job at modding, NEVER giving alts a chance, and worst of all they ban people for the stupidest reasons.

    Adventure_of_link, Caps 2.0, and all of the other crappy mods on this site, you guys suck. There, I said it. Always banning people for the stupidest reasons, I have had it with you. If only Vertex would get his lazy butt on this site and actually give a single crap, then he would have them demodded already.

    Uh dude, vkimo didn't do a damn thing, why his main nick was taken out when his long alt was banned is beyond me.

    On another note, vertex was/is cracking down on alts, and caps did NOT do a doggone thing. So PLEASE get your facts straight before running with the e-tonsils.

    Final note: NOW do you see why all the inconsistencies in modship and why some users are dropping out and why some trolls were left to do their thing? It's because we banned them, FOR A REASON, and you all bitch and moan.

    Saruman just messaged me in yahoo... He said the IPs were banned when the ban requests were approved. It's this reason alone I wish there was an option to ban by name or IP. UGH.

    Like I said, one IP, one computer.

    All you really need is two browser windows open or just open a new tab and log into both accounts. It's not hard.

    That is not possible. An IP uniquely identifies one computer on a network. That's like having multiple houses with the same phone number. That would fuck things up when you're trying to call one of them.

    Right, but how do you know what you are seeing isn't a router running multiple computers? When two computers on the same router do an IP lookup, they get the same IP return.

    Uh Saruman, on a broadband Internet service, you can have multiple computers on one IP. right now my dad is playing his card game online and I'm using my iPod to browse RJ.

    You guys know I'm the nicest guy on here and never want to embarrass anyone, but this illustrates a rather deep void in basic IT understanding.

    Link, I hope you plan on bringing that up at the next team building exercise.
    Single again...

    Killface, exactly. And I'm willing to bet anything Saruman's IP (or anyone else's that's work, school, public wifi, etc based) is shared too by everyone else on it. I used to take Cisco classes.

    No offense Saruman, but we need to get away from the fact that everyone is on dialup and open your mind that most people are on broadband.. There's plenty to learn about it too, dude. Even I had to when I first got zoomtown four years ago. :P

    Also, this doesn't excuse the fact that both people typed the same way.

    On a final note, on a broadband network, everyone is connected to the same router/modem. While everyone connected to it gets a unique IP (in the form of 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x), the IP the Internet sees will be shared amongst everyone on the same LAN (and will be radically different from the LAN IP.) it's actually sort of how AOL works, and that's dial-up (except your dialup modem will have AOL's proxy IP instead of a LAN one.)

    just be glad were working on resolving this and were actually giving explanations. :?

    Speaking of which blue, if I really didn't care this wouldve turned into a pissfest REAL fast, and I wouldn't be bugging Vertex to unban vkimo, salty, and riphard.

    Everyone who was IP banned has now been unbanned, IP wise.

    I remember in my day as a mod here, you could look at a users IP address and it would tell you who it was shared by. Almost every user shared an IP with at least one other person, sometimes several, which is why an IP ban was a last resort. Almost always, you'd end up banning an unrelated account. I assume this feature no longer works?

    Jason, no sir. Apparently when vertex approves the ban, it is IP also. Again, I wish he'd have the option to make nick and IP bans at our disposal.

    To riphard and vkimo, vertex pm'ed me earlier and said your IPs were gone

    and to salty and mezase master, I forgot about you two for some reason :? I sent another PM to undo the bans on you guys as well.
