What? Isn't this just Chapter N of the "Vogel doesn't consider designers to be customers" epic? This is almost as amusing as "The Poo Bomb!" Vogel also lacks all but the most primordial vestiges of that facility we modern humans call "sense of humor." I ascribe this to repressed shame about the Avernum series.

Ash being Ash Lael/The Creator? Looking at his recent posts I don't see anything that would put him in a position to be banned =/ -------------------- I am a silly, silly fool. Posts: 489 | Registered: Friday, December 20 2002 08:00 |

Since this post appears to be sticking around: I'm with Jeff on this one. I hope that someone directly involved in the situation will explain what happened and why it happened. Otherwise there is just going to be speculation. I don't want to spread rumours. But I would suggest that the rest of us wait to hear the whole story of what prompted the ban -- always an unfortunate event -- before crying foul.

I, too await the release of details before I pass judgement. I can't even begin to think of why Ash would be banned... (Though if I had to guess, it'd be all the comments about BoA being dead) EDIT: The sig? That's it?! EDIT2: I'm looking at Ash's profile, and I don't see BANNED anywhere... and that should've overridden his custom title. So, I'm just kind of confused now.

quote:Fag. The story: Jeff says, "Don't buy it" relating to A4, and Creator quotes it out of context and asks Jeff if he can use it as his sig. Jeff says, "Knock yourself out." Creator changes his sig to that with Jeff's permission... And is banned. -------------------- * Posts: 6936 | Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2001 07:00 |

This entire problem could have been solved using ellipses. -------------------- I'd change my sig to "BRING ASH BACK", but I want to hear JV's side first. Posts: 1509 | Registered: Tuesday, January 10 2006 08:00 |

quote:"BANNED" is a convention. I'm pretty sure custom titles actually override any "banned" notification. When I was banned, my title remained the same. ALSO Slartucker: what have you heard?

By the way, did the thread in which this exchange took place get deleted? I can't find it anywhere. It was called, "Convince me to buy Genevernum," I think. -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens.

It was called "Why should I buy Averforge?", not geneavernum and, yea, it's been deleted. [ Friday, March 03, 2006 21:57: Message edited by: Kingy ] Posts: 776 | Registered: Friday, July 4 2003 07:00 |

'Averforge' - very appropriate title, now that I've played the demo a bit. Spythere complained and Jeff Vogel responded by saying 'Don't buy it', adding that he only wants money from people who like his games. So, those of us who don't agree that this hack'n slash be called Avernum 4, we better shut up? -------------------- Polaris Rache's A3 Site reformatted 2/3 done Rache's A3 Site, original version Posts: 1828 | Registered: Saturday, January 11 2003 08:00 |

I think that theres to many people that don't like the new format for it to be all "shut up if you don't like it" type thing. Personally I just played it and was less than impressed. But I'll give it a shot and who knows, there might be another vogel masterpiece hidden under it all. Edit: Inthrall - I don't think anyone thought this was going to happen so I highly doubt it.

Eagerly awaiting some clarification on the matter. (Curse my need to sleep! I missed the whole thing - again.) Oh, and welcome back Djur. These boards keep getting more interesting by the week. Posts: 353 | Registered: Monday, January 9 2006 08:00 |

No no no no. jeff has gone to far now. He can't just BAN the one who helped me in such a good way with my scenario (and others)? Before I pass my judgement, like so many others, I do want to know exactly what happened. that also includes changing my sig. -------------------- Play and rate my scenarios: Where the rivers meet View my upcoming scenario: The Nephil Search: Escape.
