More Gwarish monkeigh business...

No sooner is Gwar banned then he comes right back and posts as Gwar2, thus violating another forum rule (can't have multiple user accounts) and is banned again. Next he persuades another Dakka member to post for him and some of his cronies post that the Dakka mod team has been unfair to Gwar... Mob rules mentality at it's finest there. I would have to say that if Dakka lifts the ban it would set a bad precedent. Gwar has received special favors often on Dakka such as having his locked threads re-opened on his request. Amazing really.

At the same time you have to be amused by the fact that Gwar! was banned for posting a picture with a dirty word in it....
....but that the moderator handling the issue is Waaagh!_Gonads.
That is pretty funny...

That's just how life is, isn't it though? Waaaghs is a good guy for sure and has been with the Dakka community for years. There has been so much drama over Gwar I think the picture was the tip of the iceberg, the last nail in the coffin so to speak. I personally would love to see that picture. It must have pissed off Waaaghs which is not an easy thing to do.

I have been suspended from Dakka a couple of times and have a reputation there as a trolle myself, which is also funny to say. I know a lot of people that post there and I think them knowing me personally and some of them having played me helped me through my ogre phase there. I am trying not to be a trolle anymore now and i mean that seriously.

Yeah, Gwar is an A-hat for sure. I lurk on Dakka a lot and hope he doesn't make a comeback. Although reading his posts makes me chuckle sometimes, because some are really way off the mark.

Some people don't follow Dakka closely and wonder what is all the fuss about. To me YMDC is finally back to where it should be. In my mind a lot of important decisions regarding the rules come out of YMDC. yakface has received praise from GW regarding his rules interpretations. While we don't all necessarily see eye to eye with the INAT FAQ we should all respect it and people like Gwar making it into a cesspool is a bad thing for sure. He was out of control there for a long time. His cronies are nothing without him either and that is a good thing as far as I am concerned. I was very unhappy when Gwar put out an FAQ for Space Wolves prior to the release of the codex. There are a lot of young people who unfortunately think people like him are the voice of reason. People need time to read a codex prior to a FAQ so they have time to read the codex themselves and make their own decisions. Gwar was much too aggresive during his reign.

I just noticed Gwar was logged onto Dakka Dakka, which you should not be able to do when your account is banned or suspended. Also noticed he still has DCM status which was supposedly refunded by yakface.
