Ash stays banned
Ash gets unbanned
Where else could he have gotten it? I know Slaol. He barely uses Facebook, let alone other social networks. It's not like he's posted the picture all over the internet. Certainly not on these forums. The only other place Ash could've gotten it would be from Slaol himself, in which case, I believe he'd have mentioned it by now.
And apparently it doesn't matter either way:
No, something worse is coming...
DOOMSDAY
We should have one so we can open discussion if we see a ruling unfit tbh.
I can see where you are coming from with your decision, but wouldn't a temp ban for a week or two have sufficed in this specific case, as the picture was made nearly unrecognizable? That's the way I see it.
After comparison, thanks to Creed, it was me. It was a picture I had on Facebook, and did not approve of being posted.
All it would take to prove it was me would be to look at the picture Ash posted, and look at the picture I had on facebook. This was done amongst the admins and there was one source- Facebook. Beyond that, what Gerik said about me not using much social media at all- fact. I don't do shit online outside of these forums.
The people who made the decision knew it was lifted from my Facebook.
The people contesting the decision knew it was lifted from my Facebook.
We could post the evidence here as proof, but it is unnecessary after this fact-
I don't know if I would've been able to tell or not, since I didn't see the edited picture until after its removal from the site, so I knew what to look for. So maybe I wouldn't have ever known. But Creed did. And if he could tell, other people probably could've figured it out as well.
no, no and NO
DROP THE BANHAMMER, MAKE AN EXAMPLE OF THESE PROTESTERS. IF THEY COMPLAIN, PERMA THE REST OF THEM
In fact you are but not because of that...
Spoiler : fm history :
Posting shit from people's Facebook?
Well deserved permanent ban.
His endless spam and forum shittin' won't be missed.
Spoiler : FM History :
The rules say that any picture of someone from social media posted without their permission is grounds for a permaban. Ash did just that. We decided to be lenient on it by giving Ash a warning, and he decided to test us by setting it as his avatar again. He lost.
I'm closing this thread. Anyone who brings this up again will be infracted.
