What happened? I agree that he was acting retarded but I think it's a little harsh to do that.

And now the video game intro thread is retardo'd.

I petition for any user with a join date of post-2008 who complains about any other user with a join date of post-2008 getting banned, to get banned.

You know, as notorious as he is elsewhere on the internet, I'm pretty sure Jim Profit left us and forgot about us.

He's already got hundreds of other sites he's banned from to bitch about.

Hi, I'm a user who only joined a month ago and has relatively few posts. Another user who joined a few days ago and made barely nine posts has disappeared. I noticed because I watch all new users intently.

I'm deeply concerned about his disappearance even though I'm an old user with a new account and should know damn well how shit goes down here. However, I'm role-playing a new user who's completely innocent and unaware, so I'm genuinely curious as to what happened.

It's not my alt, honest.

Gosh I don't know.

Quite the contrary, I never claimed that I started lurking a month ago. You should probably be able to find out if he's my alt. It's just unusual to see anyone nuked just forbeing a moron, seeing how many of them hang around for years making thousands of posts.

Change that to 2003 and we have a deal.

Part of that huge retro game intros marketing scheme I bet.

Before I read this, I only ever knew of Jim Profit from the Codex. I just googled him and have spent the past 20 minutes keeling over laughing.

Edit: wow. He ended up swinging from Ayn Rand nutjob all the way over to Stalinist nutjob. Impressive. I guess we, at the Codex, can now strike a hipster pose and boast about how we knew Jim Profit back when he was a RIGHTwing loon.

2nd Edit: I particularly like the way that one of the google 'suggested searches' is 'Jim Profit ban'.

He's banned from about a hundred sites (I remember seeing a list once that I can't find now. It was insane.) and has about a thousand grudges with mods.

By process of just existing on so many sites and getting banned, he's internet famous.

And of course, BANNING IS ILLEGAL!



Remember: clicking on Duplicate IP in Xenforo is ILLEGAL.

Wasn't he already a Stalinist when he was on the Codex?

Also, I have no idea how he gets himself banned from all these sites. It's like mods are trolling him or something.
