I was like 21, maybe? Oddly enough, I basically stopped drinking once I turned 21.
I totally just ordered a mug w/ that Qt3 logo:

Let DGS serve his time, get a reduced sentence for good behavior, and he'll be fine.
Finals must be putting him on edge.
Now then, let's see if I can get someone to print that on some boyshorts...

The logo just wants to be free.

Tom should really sell official qt3 merchandise. Mugs, t-shirts, and berets with a variety of logos. Also, that way the banned would not only have to promise to behave when asking to be let back in, but would need to buy X dollars of merch as a gesture of amends.
Also, monocles with the logo etched right in the glass.

Just upload any image to a place like cafepress.com or zazzle.com to make one-off imprints on tchotchkes like mugs, t-shirts, etc. I used zazzle.

[awesome qt3 image]
The image was done by Tom Siddell, who writes Gunnerkrigg Court (http://www.quartertothree.com/game-talk/showthread.php?p=905976).
OMFG Gunnerkrigg is like the most awesome webcomic of all time. You must all buy the book. RAARARAR.

Telling a female poster to increase her intake of glandular tissue through negative pressure inversion probably didn't do him any favors either.

-TomLine 13 on the front page (static page? template? says
<a href='/'><img src='/imgs/logo.jpg' border=0></a>
Change that /imgs/logo.jpg to the URL of the new image and you are done. I didn't check to see if it was a transparent GIF or anything, you might have an issue with the black background if the new image doesn't have black or transparent.
Oh, and you'll want to save and upload the new image to your qt3 server rather than linking to it directly from wherever it is now.
Edit: And if you don't have the wherewithal to change files on the server, download FileZilla and use it to log in to your ftp server and push the new image up. Hopefully chet gets an ulcer reading this.

No, you'll want to scale the image and save a scaled version. Scaling it in the browser means shitty resize quality AND the file size of the full image.

Replace /game-talk/images/misc/forumeye.jpg with this one (http://rimbosity.com/img/q23-forumeye.jpg).

barstein
05-12-2008, 10:11 PM
Assuming the admin isn't sure where to make the change, I believe they would need to log into the admin control panel, open the header template of the active vBulletin style and search the text of the template for the original image file name. Then place the new image into the same folder, and edit the file name but not the path. If the images are of equal size and the backgrounds match well (which appears to be the case) that should do the trick. Since we're all friends here, experimenting and then reverting if it goes badly shouldn't be too risky.

What's wrong with the allegation that a woman performs oral sex with a male partner? That's pretty unexceptional behavior. <- "Tell that to my ex-wife" joke goes here.
Revealing that you are a woman really robs the "suck dick" line of any impact as it's pretty much designed to be an implication of femininity and thus insulting to its presumably heterosexual male target.

Speaking as a yenta, I enjoy that there's rare hidden tripwires. Most touchings are pretty low-key, but this allows for the occasional gong to ring and a cartoon hooked cane to shoot into scene and drag people off stage left.

I don't know anything about why DGS was banned, Tom never informed me of anything. All we can do is draw conclusions about cause and effect.
I never stated "oh I'm a woman so you can't tell me to suck dick". Tom has never publicly stated "oh women can't be told to suck dick". However, we just saw a cause and effect, so conclusions will be drawn. Like I said, if you want to tell people to suck dick just be aware of the possible consequences.

The possible consequences include having to apologize to Tom and promising to be nicer in the future. Been there done that.
I'm just saying, this is the internet. This probably isn't the first time you've been told to suck a dick and it probably won't be the last. As a matter of fact, if you post anywhere on the internet, you've definitely heard worse. Maybe this isn't that big of a deal?

Um EXCUSE ME, but I never even saw these posts, so how am I objecting to them in a personal sense? tiohn and DGS apologized to me on their own, I did not demand an apology from them.
Ok, I'm not getting my point across here so let me try it from a different angle. DeepT got banned because he boasted of pirating a game in a thread where the developers of the game were participating. SirBruce got banned for boasting about pirating games and then soliciting favors from developers. I think it's a safe conclusion that if you boast about pirating games where the developers are involved, you are probably going to be either warned or banned.
So would it make sense to keep doing that if you wanted to stay around here? I don't think so. Same thing with sucking dick. If the results aren't what you want, then why keep doing it? That's all I'm saying. If anyone says something to me that I am offended by, I will let them know and handle it on my own. It's not a quartertothree matter.

Lorini, it's the specificity of your Qt3 Unwritten Law that's irksome. If you say "telling people to suck dick is historically a prelude to a ban", that's one thing. It's when you include yourself in the story that it sounds like you're putting yourself forth as a protected class, even if you don't intend to say that.

But you now see I'm not saying that? I don't know how much more clear I can make it. I would not think that I am somehow protected by Tom. I don't know why that would be and I'm not claiming that or asking for that or thinking that would be a good way to manage quartertothree. It's simply a matter of action/effect which I happened to be involved in. I'm discussing this because I don't want people to think that somehow I'm privileged or more deserving or something similar. I'm also discussing it because honestly, I don't like bannings, the place is more interesting when folks participate in a way that doesn't get them banned.

Feel free to tell me to RTFM if this is answered in a faq somewhere, but I couldn't find it.
A long time ago in a Super Mario Galaxy far, far away, Mark replaced the word "ban" with "gently touch" for awhile after the yenta signal:noise ratio got a little high.

OK, see, what it actually is, is: don't be grossly offensive to female posters. I'm not sure if you don't want to come right out and say it, but it's ok. It's also a rule I happen to agree with. Being stuck on the specifics of your case in particular clouds the issure. Trust me, I could totally tell you to suck dick in a few months from now and not only would I not get banned, you'd not even be offended. Because I'd do it in a way that would make you want me^H^H^H^amuse you, which is why the actualy unwritten rule at work here is being deliberately offensive.
I would like to say, however, in all fairness to Demon, he honestly did not know Lorini was female. His words were still pretty harsh however, but I've seen (and written) worse - although typically within a more justifiable context. Also, I think Demon's age being a known factor taints the things he says. Fair or not, when he insults people, he just sounds like a dumb kid screeching to many, perhaps.

I do regret the loss of DGS; he had a colorful history, and it's a shame that it'd flame out the way it did. The most dangerous terrain to be offensive on is certainly the games forum, as the same offenses made elsewhere are far more survivable.

I'm going to have to have you show all your reg dates from prior forums to verify that.
OK no, and incidentally that wasn't even an insult aimed at you. How can I put this? You didn't ban Demon, now did you?
EDIT: OTOH, if you want a set of people to stay around, whether it be female, Chinese, African-American or whatever, then you probably shouldn't be grossly offensive to them.
I assume "white" and/or "male" fit into the "whatever" demographic. Or not, it often doesn't, a fact I always find amusing. And no, you shouldn't be gorssly offensive to anyone really, and it's happened in the past that racial slurs and the like have similarly been moderated.

I think the trick is the ability to recognise when you are being a jerk and not be too stubborn to apologise.
Also -- there's often an exchange of PM's between Tom and the bannee that we know nothing about, as Tom stays tight-lipped about such things.
Yeah, there's a process Tom goes through on this. Most of the folks banned on here have either been warned multiple times and yet kept on doing it, or were warned and replied with the equivalent of, "Fuck you, man!"
No, what it is is: Don't be grossly offensive. No way are you going to tag me with the 'wilting female' label. I've been online for far too long to need that.
I agree, I don't care who the gender of the target is, it is still pretty offensive.
I don't think "offensive" is the right term here as much as "juvenile." Most of us can say things far more offensive than "suck a dick" (some have even taken it to an art form), and sucking a dick can be a beautiful thing in the right context.

Say someone got banned because they were underage, but wanted to continue to participate until their primary account was unbanned. They could rack up a significant amount of posts. Especially when "helping" Tom unban his primary account in the thread about the birthday that allowed his main account to get unbanned. (http://www.quartertothree.com/game-talk/showthread.php?t=40433)
Man, I really have an endearing habit of underestimating the pathetic emptiness of people's lives. If I ever get banned, my alt, Señor Valente, star of stage and screen, will have no more than 900 posts. Tops.

Actually, I think there were some suggestions upthread that his ban be only temporary.
And some defenses, albeit mild. I wasn't arguing for or against DGS' banning; my point was that we might be misreading WHY he was banned.
And I'm assuming that Tom doesn't have to do much detective work to determine if Krok and DGS are the same person - he can probably see IP addresses. I know I can on the Simple Machines board I run.

Well, there's a new version of the chart coming soon so that's probably not going to happen.
As mentioned above by several people, krokodile is indeed DGS' alt. I left it off the chart as a courtesy to him while his account status was up in the air last week (he was banned, unbanned and rebanned in less than a day), but with both of his accounts now banned there's no further reason to leave that out.

Hey, hey, now - "fruits" might mean something completely different in South Africa. In fact, I'll bet it means "cool people" or maybe "ripened ovary, with seeds, of a flowering plant" there.
I've learned a lot here, and one of those things is that in this global village we call Qt3, Brits sometimes call apostrophes "inverted commas," and perhaps South Africans call people "fruits" as a compliment.
Again, I'm sure Brendan will be happy to clarify.

For the record, several people figured out krokodile back when DGS was still under his original ban for being underage. He wasn't very good at alting and was pretty obviously the same guy. People let it slide because they felt sorry for him since he hadn't been a total twatwaffle before the first ban.
He just chose the most obvious way to bring back his alt.
