have earned themselves between 5-35 day bans, depending.

Full duration to be served no matter how well they plead/beg/apologise.

Lessons will be learned, I'm sure.

That is all.

Were these ordinary users, or just spambots?

It really was only cool the same way a plane crash is cool. It was so horrific that it achieved a sort of morbid fascination. For instance, one of the users posted "black people scare me" about twenty times. A big kudos should go to Laurie for contacting atob and providing him with a list of maps effected. I was there and aware too, but I had no idea the extent of the damage.

So yeah. Kudos, Laurie!

I stopped after I realized it had gotten way out of hand. But I guess I have to serve my time.

Atob, how long is my prison sentence? I tried to log in and it said "Your account will be re-enabled in 1 second ago."

Wtf.


It's also funny how the map got down to -5 comments after all were deleted.

Actually, the site doesn't tell you have many new comments you have, it tells you how many maps with new comments you have. So 500 comments on one map would ironically show as "1 map with new comments".

Too much sarcasm!! Too much sarcasm!! The tread's going to blow!! *kaBOOF* Sarcasmaplosion!

Perhaps there should be an option that prevents you from positing more than 2 comments in any 5-minute interval for any given map? (or 1 comment per 2 minutes. Short enough to alow you to continue posting epic demoes or correcting typos / ambiguity in a previous post but long enough that spamming a map would get really boring really fast)

Then again, if this is teh first time this has happened, we don't really need to control comments.
ExüberNewsFeed: Exuberance is mostly <AFF> (Away From Forums) for a while, though I may still participate in epic contests/threads. When I return, I shall bring several comic updates (enough to finish season 1) and hopefully 1 or 2 games- at least one of which is N-related
Comic Activity-O-Meter: (how often I'm updating my comic)
(Click here to see what each level and half-level means in terms of updates per time period)

NOTE: If I just add a bunch of comics in one day, but plan on going back to normal after that, I probably won't update the status.
+ Dead: Canceled. Done. Maybe you'll get a random comic like once a year, but it's pretty much done.
- Zombie (Dead/Comatose): The comic is probably done regular updates forever, but I'll probably still add something once in a blue moon. It's still POSSIBLE, that I'll raise the status up, but not very likely. Maybe I'll have a comicplosion for like a week, then go back to being dead
+ Comatose: Complete stand-by. No (or very few) updates for some amount of time, but the comic's far from being over
- <AFK> (Comatose/Loitering): Stand-by, but you might possibly count on a few updates once and a while. Again, this is temporary
+ Loitering: Like comatose, but for short amount of times.
- Turtling (Loitering/Semi-Active): Really slooooww updates
+ Semi-Active: One every 2 weeks...ish?
- Quasi-Active (Semi-Active/Active): Averaging about 2 comics every 3 weeks
+ Active: Loosely defined status, but about a weekly update
- Over-Active (Active/Power-leveling): About 2 comics a week
+ Power-leveling: About 3 comics a week. Possible a schedule, possibly not
- Über-Epic (Power-leveling/COMICPLOSION!!): In some cases, this may actually be mean updates more frequently than COMICPLOSION!!, but I'm defining this level as a non-organized comic rush, kind of like a few days after my comic started
+ COMICPLOSION!!: Daily updates for a minimum of 5 days (since the daily updates started. It remains at this status until the 5, 7, whatever days are done)
