bring back Ricochet

mods u need to lighten up, and bring back our good friend Ricochet.

every day that i come on here, his threads are the first i look for... and i know that many others do too. So for whatever stupid power tripping reason u banned him for, forget about it and swallow your pride. This place wont be the same without him.

Re: bring back Ricochet

If you present yourself as an "ignorant bigot" you get banned, no matter how popular you are or how many posts you have made.

Re: bring back Ricochet

I say bring him back again. Everybody makes mistakes. Give him warnings. The longer someone has been here, the more special privelege they should have.

Re: bring back Ricochet

Please don't start "bring back *insert name*" threads. They only cause problems that are not needed. Obviously Ricochet did something he shouldn't have and he is being punished for it. The decision was made and it is not for you to question. Any threads started like this hereafter will be deleted along with any posts in them. Deal with it.

Re: bring back Ricochet

Ricochet was set for a temporary holiday from AF. It was only temporary because, aside from his flaming, he proved he could also contribute in a positive way to AF. Be in no doubt that if any noob came out with the type of abuse Ricochet came out with, he would have been permanently banned on the spot.

That's his chance right there, and he threw it away with a charming outburst of obscenities at an AF moderator. The ban became permanent.

He is not coming back, so take this as a warning not to start any more threads about him.

I think this should be put in bold on the forums index or something, very well put.


No matter how cool your car is/how funny your threads are, you are still on equal footing with other AF members, if you fuck up you're banned, simple as that.
