i don't remember when it was added, but nowadays, when you're banned, it shows you what you were banned for and what day the ban expires.

Sure, but the reason might be "You're a dick." Reasons are typed in by the mod who banned you, so there's no telling what you'll get. Some mods leave reasonable messages, some don't.

Props to Epic for unbanning him.
Should have stayed banned. The guy is an assclown. I don't know what part of the layout which he thought up is so similar. The shape of the tanker? :lol It's not like it's the most common shape for real tankers is it? Noooooo.

Getting banned is like a box of chocolates.

Props to Mark Rein, of all people, getting involved and setting things straight.

Hopefully all those in this thread who swore off Epic games will reconsider.

Online/LAN + Splitscreen will make this a great game for for LAN parties.

I wonder how much they get paid for having their content being licensed by Epic.

And LOL at how forum mods handle situations. It's like all those crappy mods at Gamespot all over again.

Murphy went down in the flames as well? Similar to that of snah and shinblade? The latter, well they went out with, uh, well something. Similar to say the least.

You win Lobster, mods do explain bannings! :lol

They don't explain the topic-purging coverups though.

topic purging cover-ups? what are you talking about?

We were just talking about how Microsoft is so deperate for sales they're slashing prices in Europe, paying Epic to steal mods from its forum members for the 360 version of UT3, and secretly trying to win the hearts and minds of forumgoers by reinstating the dinogaf theme.

:3
 
Jesus Christ guys. Do you really think a big-ass company like Epic would steal some modder's idea for a map? That's just stupid. Despite the EULA, this would never get passed legal. Get real guys, no company does anything that isn't vetted by legal, marketing, etc.

Plenty of boat levels in many games. This is just a coincidence. It's not like Epic saw this guy's map and said, "hey, great idea, let's quickly shit out an arctic ship level." These maps take months to create.
