don't see why everyone loves him - like you for example - Pixeltheif. It's really quite sad how you seem to kiss his feet and worship the fool. You have a life don't you? People can survive without Phizzy you know..
Well its very simple. I don't like Phizzy all that much, not any more then anyone else. But I've been in his exact position; theres another community forum I go to, where I am instantly banned upon posting a message for absolutely no reason besides avoiding a ban. Nobody knows why I was banned in the first place, and I'm only there to help the little people with their problems and write articles anyway. And it would be a damn sight hypocritical to support banning Phizzy at that rate.
Anyway, I think if you Mods really want to control the problem, a nice compromise would be a Tempban system; if Phizzy starts posting about large penises again, you can give him a day or two off to chill out, instead of permanent exile.

Well, i don't think I've been here long enough to say I've seen a lot of his trolling etc but what I do know is that There was a point when I asked a LOT of questions in the Code it forum and he answered almost every post and provided me with good advice and even an engine or two. Really helped me out.
Though at the time, that was to reinforce people's new-founded excuse for him not being banned in the community. To be honest though, I don't see why everyone loves him - like you for example - Pixeltheif. It's really quite sad how you seem to kiss his feet and worship the fool. You have a life don't you? People can survive without Phizzy you know..
The community was and has been a much friendlier place without him.. he used to insult random people a lot, like in the downloads areas etc. and say useless comments / troll, simply everywhere. It's a shame that he can't seem to prevent himself from doing this though - he tends to be all nice again for a couple weeks, then there comes a day when he snaps back to his old self and it begins all over again... and the admins KEEP giving him chances!
Given all of the chances he's had, it doesn't matter how many tutorials etc. he has submitted. You can't cancel one thing out with another like that, it just doesn't work like that in life... "Yeah I'm a serial killer, but I won the lottery and gave the money to cancer research, so hey!" ... You're still going to jail dude! You get me? :\
I think the main reason why he was so helpful Slink, is because when he's here he's like me - he's online pretty much all of the time
I quite agree with this. Although I don't think it's fair he should be perma-banned. I'd say leave it a few more months then re-evaluate the banning.
Oh cool, now that I know you're in fact NOT an a$$ licker of Phizzy's and your reasoning for wanting him back here is justified and isn't motivated by him asking you n stuff... s'all gd I was expecting quite an inflammatory response to that Pixeltheif, but I'm glad you're not that childish and predictable . Unlike some I like people that can resolve things without fighting etc and act grown up about matters.
Yeah I know what you mean too James. Perhaps a permanent ban forEVARR is a bit too far... maybe an accumulative ban of some sort? So for example, every time he is banned, his ban is increased? Or doubled, or something? That'd be quite a good deterrant from misbehaving!?
Woo hoo, I just listened to that whole album last night waiting for my wife to hurry up and finish with the food shopping! We started on Hold your fire after 2112 was through, but only got a little bit into Time Stand Still before she came out of the store.
2112 is probably my favorite of their opuses, with Hemispheres being 2nd.

I hold grudges against phizzy still.
