I hate spammy forum games. Litten, can you ban them?
I guess elaborate games are okay!

I recall a thread which used the forum like a ROM hack. Which was that? I like the idea, I'd like that back!

Also, any other ideas for these games? Yep, 'Forumons.' It seems I was involved. Yay! For other games, maybe a riddle-based game?

Well, if you were cool you'd be Litten. There's my answer.

The banhammer is like a game that Admins play.
You press 'ban,' then you win.
The recent fashion is 'possession banhammer,' renowned for its cutesiness. You ban someone, then compulsively ban the next non-Admin user you can find. It makes for some incredible forum policy, as you can imagine. It is also getting a hallowed place in the rules of many a forum.

Hahaha. Exotic music, I like how it mentions games.
Are you as enthusiastic about the ban hammer as Litten?

I don't think that a forum should ban anyone unless Litten is an admin there. I don't think anyone else is to be trusted with it.
However, even with Litten around it should only be used rarely. A forum is a public area, not an Admin cynically exploiting other members' contribution while treating it as their own playground based on capricious whims. Thank you for the question, incidentally.

I liked that second paragraph. I think I've gotten banned from several places for angry or silly reasons, so I appreciate your mature view on Admin and mod behaviour. I think you've been Admin back when forums were a big thing and had a few crowded sites. Do you think that the forum scene is more stale now?

It probably has from my observations, there's a lot less emphasis on it now. I'm not sure that there are many forum worth reading generally, and usually only small ones where the good posts aren't buried.
