    Last thing you did: Said "VIVA LA REVOLUCION"
    Why do you think you got banned?: For speaking too freely. For saying some people in shoutbox have low IQ. I don't see how that's bannable. It's just stating a fact. Since when are facts offensive? Facts are just facts. I have an IQ in the top 0.1% that's just a fact. Don't be mad at me for saying you have a lower IQ than me. That's like getting mad that a taller person says you're shorter than them. IT'S JUST FACT. If Lebron James walked up to me and said hey guy. I'm taller than you, you're shorter than me. I'd say, "You know what..That's true." We are who we are.
    Ban message when attempting to log in: It's not a game ban. I was banned from ShoutBox. It disappeared right after Kai threatened to ban me if i didn't choose my next words carefully. My next words were something like "I'm an intellectual rebel" and "VIVA LA REVOLUCION." Don't quote me on the first one.
    What (intern) GM banned you (optional): Kai.


    An interesting read that I'm really relating to right now: http://polymatharchives.blogspot.be/2015/01/the-inappropriately-excluded.html

    Says that those of high IQ are excluded from social circles and how interesting that it JUST happened. Look, I use the shoutbox for game related stuff. If you wish, I will keep it only mapleroyals related. I often need to ask for help there. Please undo this ban and I will restrain myself. Thank you.

    Please excuse any typos. I did not proofread.

    "Threaten" is a strong word. I gave you a warning, not a threat, just to clear things up again.

    For this case, I'll be taking a step back and will let other members of the staff look into it, specifically my superiors as you described them to be as they're the only ones who can unban you from the shoutbox.

    On a side note, updated your thread title to make it more prominent.


    Edit: I didn't ban you from the shoutbox for what you last said, but as a whole of what you've said over the past hours.

    Ok. Would you agree that I gave a fair description of the events leading up to the ban?

    -edit-
    aside from the threaten thing.

    So without ever having interacted with me at all, you decided to call me out to be an incompetent admin and you consider this a fact? More importantly, you also question how this can be interpreted as offensive?
    I hate to break it to you but anyone with half a working brain or better can understand how an uncalled for direct insult can be seen as offensive, and if you don't then that's quite sad.
    Seeing you've insulted multiple players as well as Staff members without you even having bothered to apologize to any of them, I don't see why we should consider unbanning you from the shoutbox as you're simply toxic towards the community.

    I was trolling the whole time. I won't do it again. Also, I sent a PM to Seb to apologize on my behalf in the shoutbox but then he said he was actually accidentally banned. So I'll do it here.

    Sorry everyone. I was trolling the whole time. Pissed some folks off but I'm sure some people were getting a kick out of it. I'll have you know I'm no genius and I went too far for to get a rise out of people. I know what I did was wrong and I won't do it again. I honestly just hope this ban isn't long term. I won't do it again. Sorry admins, GMs, members. I got carried away in my trolling.

    please refrain from trolling to this extend, you've been unbanned from the shoutbox
