Which one of you IGT fools...
 

...got our IP banned over at NASIOC? Eh?

Fess up! :mad:

Probably someone with multiple Subarus often in various stages of functionality and more spare parts and wheels than a salvage yard. :)

Arg. There another way to find out?

They hand out IP bans over there like bad band flyers.

Heh, I sent an e-mail, but who knows when that'll get answered.

i dont even know what that means.

Go to nasioc and do a search. If the search brings results, it wasn't you.

To the rest of the WWW, IGT Reno has one IP address. So when one user at IGT has their IP banned, everybody using a computer at the company is banned. they should just ban the username. I also emailed them and hopefully they unban the ip tomorrow.

Nasioc = Corner-Carvers???

I aways knew you guys lived in the NASIOC fast lane.

Corner Carvers at least has an excuse for their tyranny. They started that board to get away from the retards on the Corral so they could have real tech discussions. Nasioc is just run by assholes.

Phew, we got IP un-banned.

Either you "get" NASIOC OT, or you don't. There really isn't much middle ground over there.

And n00bs die flaming deaths.

But I wouldn't say the place is run by assholes. At least it's not like i-club where the majority of the members are the assholes and street raced the forums to death.

Pick your poison I guess.

Don't forget that the first thing all the assholes on I-club do when we try to clean stuff up is start bitching about how it's turning into NASIOC. Shit is getting old. There's seriously a guy bitching for 3 pages about the swear filter. :lol:

Never been to I-Club.

Who needs a swear filter? We're not little kids. That's always bothered me on the NAS..

Whats even funnier is the guys that try to dodge it. So what, just type shit fuck ass whatever and let the filter catch it. Its not like its ambiguous.

"Oh crap, I meant to say fuck you, but now it says **** you. People will never understand my anger now"

I HAVE SO MUCH ****ING ANGST STARS CAN'T DESCRIBE IT!

But yeah, i don't really see why it's an issue. Ali reposted the rules we've always had down there and every little whiner starts screaming that the sky is falling.

To be honest, I "get" OT and I don't think it should count as a strike aganst nasioc from an outsider's perspective. The thing that makes nasioc sucks is the protectionism for their vendors (read as: SubiGal) to the point that even highly legitimate vendor complaints get tossed out of public view, and moderators over there issue bans, timeouts and warning points becuase people "disrespect" them.

That said, there are shades of things that like that creeping up at i-club, which could lead to serious issues down the road if not properly dealt with.

Oh, and shit fuck damn whore pussyfarts. Just checking.

Subie Gal is just a wee bit too rad. That's all I'll say.

:lol:

My bad.

Really, what's a bigger threat to a board's health?

A moderator that oversteps their boundaries a few times causing some back-room arguing among vendors.

or

100's of users that perpetually bicker in trivial manner turning every thread on the board into arguments fill with underhanded personal attacks.

You can read NASIOC w/o getting tied up in the bullshit, especially if you mostly stick to OT. When I gave up on i-club it was impossible to participate in SRIC w/o having to view and/or participate in the shit flinging.

Bitching about SubiGal is so 5 years ago. She really hasn't had any major effect on the quality of the board (positive or negative) for years now. As someone that frequents OT, I can tell you, she's not that big a deal, at least not in OT, which is where I spend 99% of my time at NASIOC. Besides, I'd rather have some mildly totalitarian moderators on occasional power trips that have the power to actually fix problems, over moderators that can't take a stand because they'll just get walked all over by gen-pop.

i-club is not the place it was when you stopped reading it. But feel free to continue not reading, just as I stopped reading OT. You have your reasons and I have mine.

It's kinda like "getting" cancer.

those too.
