I just got banned from Bioware's forum because I was asking if Stanley Woo had changed is avatar because to a thing a tried to start called Re-Volus-ion. Bioware is getting way out of hand.

Oh, so you're the one who started that? I saw a few users beoming voluses...voluus...volus...eeer, little fat guys.

Your legacy will live on :salute:

Yeah I was going to say that probably refers to just the Steam client/community where you upload avatars, can put some junk in your profile and PM people through their chat system. And, as noted, they'd have to track the IP of your forum account which, while possible, is a bit of a stretch -- as is the ability to ban you for any actions on unrelated forums. Would it hold up in court? Maybe. Would it be a PR nightmare? Absolutely. Also, keep in mind Valve has a vested interested in not banning you as an active user is more likely than not a repeat customer. I don't doubt there are risks involved in using Steam, it's just that I pay so little for the games I don't really worry about them.
Change "Steam account" with "EA account" and "Valve" with "EA" and have a look at what thread you're posting in.
Sweet irony is delicious *mhmhmm*

What striked my attention on here.. Why are so many users monitoring the BioWare forums when it's so obviously bad, why do some users even know tropes, moderators using "end of the line" when it's a serious decline even browsing their fora?

I don't read Bioware forum, but I found some kind of masochistic pleasure in browsing Codemasters boards, after they released that steaming turd OFP2.

He should really sign his posts with 0D 0A.

Indeed :D

While, if they follow this path, BioWare will soon become "1A"...
