my thread making privileges look sharper in 1080p

If a true junior is banned, it's always permanent. Thatmight be what you're thinking of.

That is also not true anymore. Some members reported in a "Why did you got banned" thread.

So I'm kinda new here could someone please explain the complexities of this whole thing like how do I become a full member, how do so many people get banned for seemingly nothing, If I get a ban am I at least notified why, and lastly where do all the gifs and memes come from is there a archive or something somewhere?
 
He really should have put JOKE in the thread title somewhere.

Very frequently many posters Read the thread title and run with that without bothering to read the OT with all the expected results

He got juniored for self-promotion most likely

It is in the TOS

I highly doubt he got juniored for posting a joke thread
 
I really don't get why he was juniored. He said in the OP it was his, it's not like he tried to hide it so I would think locking the thread is enough as it gets the message across just the same without unnecessary humiliation (which is actually drawing more attention to his video).

And I'm not telling mods what to do so please don't punish me for backseat moderating as that's not my intent, just giving my opinion as the thread is still open and discussing the video would be promoting it even more. If it was because it was a misleading topic with a joke video I understand the reaction even less, fun helps ease the high tension console war stuff going on and it's not OP's fault people responded without watching the video.

A bit of both is probably the right answer .

That and i could see mods being less tolerable right now with all the Meltdowns happening right now.

I would have been banned/junior'd quite a few times for self promotion, so it wasn't that. It's probably because this is a heated topic right now and is just adding fuel to the flame. Don't start shit won't be shit, lol.

Totally worth it though. The vid was golden.
 
Being a bit misleading and doing some self-promotion on the side tends to have this effect. Still OP it was a funny video so there's that!
 
I'm shocked so many people have never seen or heard of Athene. You're to take nothing that man says seriously.
 
I thought Athene died or something. His WoW videos back in the day were pretty hilarious, and he always had that girl on the thumbnails of his videos who was his girlfriend supposedly, although she was sometimes in the video for like 5 seconds iirc. Good times.


Still, pretty harsh junioring all things considered, nothing Athene says should ever be taken seriously
 
I liked the video and I usually don't like Athene's stuff.
OP is Athene?

Shame, that vid was pretty good.
Guess Reese is Reese. Would explain his posts in Firefall anyway.
The first page is just embarrassing. Unbelievable how many people post just based off thread titles.
Hi welcome to the internet, may I take your hat and coat?

Drive by posting 'my opinion I formed in 3 seconds should be shared with everyone' is horrible.
 
considering these consoles will be relevant into 2020 I think 1080p needs to be a standard. 720p is fine now in 2013-2014, butas we go on and 1080p becomes the standard xbone is gonna show its age.
 
The video was much more amusing than I thought it would be. I don't know how someone could have gotten past the part where the X1 side of the TV is pixelated without catching onto the joke. Seriously.
