The ban and the forums which I got banned from - not relate to SG

So, I saw a topic about a CD-Key for steam. The guy asked a very common question: Can he have another copy of a game if he activate the code of a game he already have in his library. The answer of course is NO, but the cute admin of the forum, said: It depends on what game you are going to activate.
So i quoted him and said how are you even an admin here, what do you mean by depens on which game?
and then, I got banned for a few days because I used "bad language", which I DIDN'T.

Your thoughts?

Some games do give an extra copy. I'm hardly surprised you got banned for being a smart ass.

I got banned for saying that Britney Spears is an ugly bitch. Reason: offence. I could understand a ban for bad language, but offence is kinda curious since she addresses as a bitch by herself.

I was banned for a week before on a site for saying "This is a bit suspicious, but why the heck not. Not really loosing anything anyway."

Also been banned from a TF2 server once for using foul language when I said "What the.. what just happened?" in voice chat. I said it right after someone did something that did not make sense with the game mechanics. The guy was a sniper.. using a strange sniper rifle.. and he sniped 6 people, ( headshots ) 2 of them where inside and not outside, all within 2 or 3 seconds. Keep in mind though I found out later from a friend it was the admin who was the sniper.. So he prob got sensitive about the fact that he was cheating.

Lol.. the weapon was one of the sniper rifles you can get from the crates.. the rifle's name really is "Strange Sniper Rifle" as a base.

Oh and btw, that ban was a perma ban too. Friend of mine talked to server owner and got me off the ban list but by that point I did not care anymore. ( took a long time before the owner removed me from the banned list )

I know the word pseudonym, but in English you would say "username", or perhaps "login" (which yes, you call "pseudo" in French). I thought you might mean "my alternate account on that forum" with "pseudo" - that you had a backup account there. Hence the confusion.

I once joined a Killing Floor match where 4 out of the 5 players waited at the trader, and the other one left was being pursued by the last enemy of the wave and didn't do anything about it. I waited about 4 minutes so that he finishes it, but it seemed like he didn't want to. Asked the rest what's going on, then the high almighty admin said something like this:

"FRENCH SERVER ONLY SPEAK FRENCH NO ENGLISH OR BAN"

Not even shitting you, that's how it looked. So I replied "Ah, okay. I'll shut up then" since I don't speak surrenderese, to which I got permabanned. I laughed for a few minutes and didn't touch KF ever since.

Well, not because of the incident though, that game bores me for whatever reason, but I come back to it every once in a while...

Eh do not blame you. I got bored of it myself. The only time I find it fun is when playing with friends.. even then it gets kind of boring after a while. Kinda like L4D 1&2 they got boring to me after a while as well.

The admin was technically correct in that a few games have different versions based on things like regions, and sometimes it's possible to own both. At least, that's what I think they meant.

But come on, "how are you even an admin here" was pretty confrontational of you. Banning you for it may have been a bit draconian, but it doesn't seem very surprising.

How is that stupid? Regifting is not allowed, nor is receiving multiple wins for the same game.

If all you got was a 10 day suspension then it was very generous of support to give you such a light sentence. The rules here are pretty clear and you violated two of them in one shot.

but what if you win the two games simultaneously? Say, you win them overnight while you sleep.

Judging by your wording, you've never even bothered to read the FAQ / Rules, at all, not even after your suspension time was up, did you?

You were rude to the admin so it's not very surprising he suspended you + he was right, some games do give extra copies if you already own the game.

first - you are wrong; there are a couple of games (ex: torchlight) which will give you a copy in that case
second - not everyone likes flaming attitudes. I'd also give you a warning for such a commentary.

more because you were rude i'd assume... you can correct someone but saying "how are you even an admin here" is more than a little offensive considering responding to questions has nothing to do with moderating a site

So question, say i won a giveaway for, something Resident Evil... could i give that gift to a friend considering he does not have the time for messing around trying his luck? Or is that not allowed

If not, thats kind of a poor system, not everyone has time for a RNG Luck based site system like this

Nope, it's not. You can always ignore the rule and face the consequences if you really think it's that retarded. :x

The rule is there so that people don't misuse the good intention of people giving away games. There are people that will sell back or trade the games they won, which is not the purpose of this site. If you don't have time, then it's bad luck for you. You enter the giveaways here by choice. And people gave away games here on their own good will. If other people misuse the good will of the givers, there will be less people giving away games.

What does it matter that not everyone has time for a site like this? Are people being forced nowadays? Don't like it, don't use it...

They probably have a rule against arguing with admins which, based on you calling him out by questioning his authority, you violated. Was the admin heavy-handed? Probably. Is it your place to go into someone's house and tell them how to act? No. If you don't like it then get out of their house.
