he should ban himself. And film himself banning himself. Then post the video on a thread. Which he can them delete.

I nominate this as the official home of useless responses (in keeping the the spirit in which it was offered if I might be so bold as to assume what that spirit was, or what spirits were drank during the typing thereof and therein).

Better yet I think he should first ban himself...then try to post the video of himself banning himself only to be frustrated as heck because he cant post the video of him banning himself because he is already banned.

so let me see if I have this straight:

ban yourself
try to post
get frustrated
register under new name
post video of being banned
get banned for posting video of being banned
try to post
get frustrated
make video of getting frustrated
register under new name and post video of being banned along with video of getting frustrated
get banned
get frustrated
register under new name
get banned before even posting
move to early S site to turn over a new leaf

I think each and every Pelicanhead should be banned. For lewd and lascivious behavior. You know you've all been guilty at some point.

Z-Man should be double-secret banned, for failing to ban those who deserved it and were not banned.

And then there are those who frequently call for the banning of another member. We'll call these people BanFans. They must be banned.

Does he have the power to un ban himself after banning himself to avoid having to re-register under a new name to post a video of himself banning himself?

But wait..if he unbans himself so that he can post a vid of himself banning himself there really is no reason to post the video of himself banning himself because technically he is no longer banned...right?

i think its a power thing w/ z. he relishes being keeper of the wand.

remember this thread? Z was to pick a VP of operations but he let this die


Who is this "lordgrommit" guy, and how is he (still) a mod?

i am just saying.....

and the banning and unbanning sounds alot like mastubation, ban then unban, ban and then unban. just faster.

No, it didn't die in committee. You're Co-Grand Poo Bah (two words, only one "h"). It's a highly responsible position, which is why you were nearly rejected. No authority, though.

Can Z just ban me for a few days so I can get some work done? I won't really _need_ to be here until i do my water pump and headlight upgrade next week, and I could really use the boost in productivity.

The Committee knew you had experience with this type of position, and we knew you already had the hat. You may start immediately after the safety training.

does this involve explosives and/or radioactive materials? I hope so, becuase these stockpiles at my apartment are just going to waste. Although the pets do sure like them...

The safety training only deals with explosives that are also radiactive. If your explosives are not radioactive, and if your radioactive materials are not explosive, then your stockpiles are classified as "benign," similar to your authority level.

Yes, and I should be banned. In fact, if Z-Man, who we know is banned, is unavailable to ban me, then I'll ban myself. I am banned until tomorrow morning. At which time we shall discuss whether my ban should be reinstated. I will lead the discussion, but at no time will I express support for the banning of a ban. Bans can never be banned, in my humble view.

And so, self-bans cannot be banned in and of themselves, although I will present a case in which self-bans should be reviewed periodically by the original banner. Until such time as a moderator can be found whose name is Ray. Ray-Bans would fall under something completely different.

Do we have any attorneys with experience in ban law?

Me too. I'd love to see under my name "Banned - so he won't get fired," though this probably won't fit.
