I feel compelled to respond to certain false points raised about me in
this thread and try one last attempt at reason.
My percentage of posts in the gaming section of the forums is irrelevant.
Says his posts in the gaming section of the forums is irrelevant...
Proceeds to tell us about his posts in the gaming section of the forums:

Fact of the matter is that I have contributed more to the gaming sections
of the forum than most. I made the AT let's play(the only one in the web
and with dialogue and texts transcribed), I convinced Matthew to release
the design documents of the game to the public, I got some information
about the game background from from Rich Guy, I took the initiative to
interview Arnold Hendricks after it surfaced that he was interested in
coming to kickstarter, I got the developer of Nicholas Eymerich: The Plague
to come and answer questions about the game on the adventure forums and
else. I also announced here that Doug Tennapel was coming to kickstarter
months before it became official. I contributed to the adventure gaming
forum an raised some very good topics in the library, wether you want to
admit it or not.
Shitposters might have most of their posts in the gaming section, but their
posts are null and contentless shit(mostly one-liners). If anything you
should thank me for posting in the gaming forums only when I have something
interesting to say.
You're right, it's irrelevant, so I'll ignore it. And just for the record, just because you post nicely a handful of times in one forum, doesn't excuse shitposting in another forum. This isn't like some game of Chinese Ying-Yang where you get to shitpost just so long as you balance your shitposting out with an equal number of worthy non-shitting posts.
Bryce said:
Lastly, if I was such a "shitposter" and persona non grata as my detractors
claim I wouldn't have dozens of people asking for me to remain active in
the forums.
Counter-point: If you were so loved, why are you
near the top of the ignore list with "dozens of ignores"?

Even after this poll was edited and I was given the losing
option(the one that claims to love Trash and his stalisnitic ways), 53,6%
of the votes(options 1, 3 and 5) are for not having me banned. Clearly my
posts in politcs and gd are appreciated or at least tolerated by the
majority.
He should not be banned (30 votes), 19.9%
Ban him (31 votes), 20.5%
Exile him to RPGWatch (25 votes), 16.6%
Ban him and Moribund (38 votes), 25.2%
Free Jim Profit! (27 votes), 17.9%
You're correct that only slightly under half the forum wants you banned (45%), however a further 16.6% want you discouraged; totalling 61.6% who want action taken against you - compared with 37.8% who want you unbanned (and 17.9% of that could potentially be considered a "joke" kingcomrade option).
Also, it's a good thing the Codex isn't a democracy.
Bryce said:
I would like to post again and there are many people who would like me to
post again.
Except there are many more who would not. See above.
Bryce said:
I suggest the administration turns over a new leaf and unban my
account. Clearly my banning was the culmination of unresolved butthurt in
the part of some people. Darkunderlord has admitted that he allowed Trash
to edit my posts and his claims that I should have contacted him through
PMs is frankly false. I have contacted him through pms before about Trash
editing my posts and he didn't do anything.
We had a discussion when you first re-joined, it went along these lines:
May 26, 2012: Warned, "
Blaming libruls for everything."
May 26, 2012: Warned, "
libruls"
May 26, 2012: Warned, "
libruls is getting tiring. Also chocolate jews."
May 26, 2012: Warned, "
You really can't post something without attacking everyone, can you?"
May 26, 2012: Warned, "
Chocolate jews. There's a difference between something said as a joke and posting troll bait."
I believe your words at the time were that you'd tone it down. You've clearly breached that commitment.
Bryce said:
Having my posts edited and my
account redirected to the watch was effectively the same as being banned,
hence my request was redundant.
Side point, if being re-directed to RPG Watch is "effectively the same as being banned" then the poll above should be adjusted to 61.6% in favour of having you banned, thus negating your earlier point about how a clear majority "are for not having [you] banned".
Bryce said:
Besides if I was actually at fault, I have
already been punished by being kept away for several weeks.
On top of the several months we banned you for before, on top of the previous commitments from you that you would change your ways, on top of the various alts you've registered, on top of once again falling into your regular pattern of behaviour that you've been wanred about repeatedly, again and again. On several occassions. Resulting in you, every time, proclaiming that you had come good - which you do for approximately two weeks before reverting to form.
Bryce said:
Andhaira and Moribund also contributed and should be allowed back.
Specially Andhaira. He has promised not to repeat what happened in the
Dicksmoker affair.
By the way, how's the "friends of Andhaira" club going? You guys still posting those troll topics on his behalf¹?
¹Why do you think I made "Phelot" a mod?
