[Question] Mewzard

[GK Punk]

Sorry, I hadn't been back yet and the other mod hasn't logged in at all either it looks like. It should be lifted now.

[plastroncafe]

Come back, mewzard!

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

I propose Mewzard change his name to Shane, to make Plastroncafe's plea even more heartfelt.

[CyberCubed]

Who would have thought having a fusion Pokemon username like Mew and Charizard would get you banned?

[Mewzard]

Thanks for the support guys, and thanks for the unban GK!

Always good to be welcomed back into a delightfully nerdy fanbase (now, to get my wallet back into Turtles and hit the comic shop, lol).

I am sorry for the ban, as it seems I was the start of it.

[CyberCubed]

So who was the mod that banned Mewzard? I find it a bizarre misunderstanding.

[Powder]

Krang is the one with ban power, to my knowledge (maybe Machias too, but I'm not sure). I imagine they were made aware that someone was making a bunch of fake Mew accounts & banned any with "mew" in the name without taking note of their join dates or the specifics of this situation. An understandable mistake, however unfortunate it was. Just glad dude got justice!

Hi Mewzard,

Please accept my apology. I was going through dozens of fake mew/Goku accounts, and didn't realized that you were an older member. I haven't been on for a solid week, so I'm just finding out right now..

Thank you for handling this, GK!

Machias, a question:

Without pointing the finger at any particular suspect, if you had or have reasonable suspicion of who might have been creating those accounts while still being a member of the forum, would that member be banned?

[Machias Banshee]

Believe me, I was doing a lot of research on who was behind the accounts. We're still discussing the situation.

It's hard though... some people, you can tell distinctly if it's them. Others, they might share IP addresses with multiple people. So doing an IP ban (while desirable), is not the quick fix we'd like it to be.

[plastroncafe]

I'm so sorry you have to put up with that sort of crap, Machias.

Well, on behalf of all of us, thank you for the crap you wade through. Is there any way we can chip in to get you and the rest of the Mod Squad some hipwaders?

[Machias Banshee]

Eh, it's part of the job.

Me and Machias have ban power and I believe Darth Raph may as well. And I think it was an understandable and honest mistake. Machias was just trying to do her best.

Glad you're back and able to use the forums again Mewzard!

I hope they pay you guys(mods) well

[Andrew NDB]

Should Mewzard be paid reparations from the board, like the Japanese after the internment camps?

[Cure]

Yup, joke has gone on long enough.

[shuriken]

so is this why Mew was banned?

Nah, he just kinda went off the deep end within the last few weeks. Don't get me wrong, I think he's fun to be around, but as far as thread making goes...Yeah, I started to think he kinda lost it after "Let's give Donald Trump an afro!" I mean, he made silly threads and stuff before, but what set most people off was "Bob Ross or Billy Mays" and it kinda just snowballed from there. I think Mewzard was banned because of Mew and this whole "Super Mewku" account thing that somebody did (it was confirmed to be Goku, right? Or was it just that's it's not Mew?), but Mew himself was banned because most got tired of his act.
