Sadly, yes.

Fake news.Tag begging usually doesn't work.
Something I've always been curious about is whenever some one is temped banned do they mods/admins notify the user and tell them why? And does the user know how long they've been temp banned for?
Or is the user just banned and has to try logging in everyday until they're finally "free" again?
I skimmed through FAQs and didn't see anything.

Yes, you get told and for how long.
Mine was "Please don't accuse other members of hiding joycons up their anuses".
Which made it all worthwhile.
You'll see a message when you log in that you're banned and when the ban expires, pretty basic forum stuff.

You guys are crazy with those reasonsÜbermatik;234226109 said:The ban reasons are the best part about being banned. One of mine was "Please don't stab people".

Oh sure, and that tag will sayFake news.
If you want a tag, the best thing to do is create a thread (preferably on both Gaming and OT) asking for a tag. The admins are typically so impressed by your initiative and go-getter attitude that they will award you with one in short order.
Just make sure that the title is in ALL CAPS so that they can see it.
Is there a way to get bumped back to regular member after getting juniored?

Serious question NeoGaf gold is fake right like a running joke like the 30$ Italian meal?

I have to ask.
Why is NeoGAF called NeoGAF?

Nothing wrong with just reading and taking in information. Sometimes there isn't anything else that needs to be said.Kinda defeats the whole purpose of a forum though.

Sometimes, my last read post gets lost and moves me to some newer post. It can jump by several pages and if the thread is massive, by the dozens. In this case, I usually try to read the last 5 pages to catch up a little.
I've always just assumed this would be Thread Derails The Extension.
This should have been more clickbaity
CRAZY SHIT YOU DIDN'T KNOW WAS POSSIBLE ON NEOGAF (70+ TIPS INSIDE)
I was juniored once and the mod told me on that day it would only be for 3 months.Usually PMing a mod after being on the straight and narrow for some time can work. But obviously, it comes down to their decision.
That may be a GAF Gold-only feature now.Since we are talking about Gaf in general: did they at one point remove the portion on the homepage that shows all the names who are currently online?
Or is this only missing on my end?

Analysis complete: "Its shit"
We can't make you be nice.
For the various folks who'd like to blame moderation for allowing people to act cruelly, that's something you should probably know. More to the point, you don't want us to try and make you be nice, because we have blunt tools, and the way we'd do it is tighten up on banning negative, hostile comments.
You don't want us to do that, because you're guilty of it. Go look in your reading history right now. If you can't find a single comment that someone might think was nasty or unpleasant, I will be deeply surprised. That means the rest of you would be banned.
No rule we can put up, no pogrom of bans, no effort on our part can make you change the way you talk to other people. I've spent a lot of time on OT trying to convince people not to be assholes directly to each other, with little success, so the idea that we're going to stop people from being assholes about someone who isn't here or made promises they didn't keep, is a fantasy.
The only person that can make you behave better, make you remember that there are people on the other side of the keyboard, is you. And you can't make anyone else behave better, either. Each of us can only be responsible for ourselves.
It's easy to blame "GAF" as if the software and hardware were making the comments. It's easy to blame moderation, although it's you guys who create all the content, not us. It's less easy to take a look at your own posting and make changes. But if you want GAF to be a nicer place, that's literally your only option, because GAF is a collective of thousands of different voices, and those voices create the chorus that people perceive.
So keep throwing stones -- at developers, at moderators, at your fellow posters -- but you're part of the problem, and rather than deal with your part in the problem, you're engaging in negativity about other posters, the forum, and its staff. Try, instead, treating fellow posters, developers, and staff as if they were people. Consider that your funny, cruel joke is less funny and more cruel, and maybe don't post it. Moderate your language and instead of calling people scam artists, or shoving your head up your ass in self-righteousness about your consumer rights, consider that the company you're railing against is really just people trying to make something neat and failing rather than a conspiracy to rob you and make you play bad games.
