Sigh, well on the plus side I think this is one of the few threads where I have seen a "discussion" take place.

in one post/in multiple posts = annoying and also instigating for others to follow. When you see this in the first instance, in your mind you already are thinking about the repost train. This is to stop it from even happening.
"repost" in one post = normal | Okay... so now you're saying that you banned him because seeing it written out vertically in a single post is "annoying" and "reminds you of a repost train" while in fact being neither of those things?
I mean I agree that having 1 letter/post spell it out vertically is a "waste of bandwidth" and pointless, but seriously? Having him type out REPOST in one single post vertically is getting him banned just because it annoys you? It doesn't waste anymore bandwidth than "REPOST" horizontally, and doesn't "instigate for others to join in" because the REPOST train has already ended. And on top of ALL of that, he was the FIRST person to point out that this was a repost. It had not been mentioned before his post was posted.
You have NO logical reasoning behind why this guy was banned. You're coming up with shitty ideas out of your ass to stick up for yourself and it's not working. Every single person that's posted in this thread agrees that you were wrong.

I think this is basically a warning to everybody.
Do not speak your mind. In fact, you might as well not say anything at all because it is quite possible that it might annoy !NiteRaven which will result in you getting banned.
Oh shi-...^did that annoy you !NiteRaven?? Damn, looks like I'll be getting banned....

Hooray, RS has quality control/assurance. Who cares if he's banned? It's not like he can't view the forums without logging in (as in old RS), he just can't post. Boo Hoo 
Many of the daily posts in VOT/VAC are just the same .gifs/.jpegs or replies anyways.

I don't really give to shit's that he himself is banned, it's the reason he was banned and that it's a dumb reason compared to other things which go on here.

You guys are acting like that guy complaining about getting a ticket on the skytrain assuming that winning a hockey game acts as a free ticket.
Rules are rules. they've been placed so that stupid shit like this doesn't get out of hand.
Its plain and simple:
-Don't get crafty and creative trying to say repost
-Politely inform the op that it is a repost
-If someone mention that it is a repost, don't say it again
-Just let the thread die
Sometimes, someone has to be the scapegoat in order to send the message across to the community. And obviously, being lenient didn't work before when this issue first arose on revscene because we're talking about it now.
Also as stated before, just because you've seen it, it doesn't mean everyone else have. Keep in mind that some members here don't venture out on to other forums like others. Quote:

Actually, that situation is very different.
The train is a service that we are given and that we are supposed to pay for. When you don't pay, you are stealing. I don't think I have to give you an explanation of why stealing is wrong, do I?
On the other hand, this situation involves somebody making ONE post vertically (not starting a train, which would therefore waste bandwidth). There is no harm done.
Oh wait, nevermind, there is harm done. The vertical post reminds !NiteRaven of a train. That's not good. This means ban. Quote: |

However, if you are banning them because their posts annoy you, then you are on a powertrip.

About time this is being enforced again. There was a point where the second post in every thread was "Repost". If it is, why do people need to point it out?
How about making it simple, no "Repost" in any way shape or form?

thats just how it is. you can use that same exact line "gotta love ______________" on just about every webforum... love it or hate it, the REPOST shit is annoying, and ppl are just chiming in their 2 cents because they love trolling...
lets face it, you cant in the real life.
the brutual truth, the REPOST thing is fucking annoying. if u got nothing good to add, why post?
you should see the ppl that crumble when their accounts are banned, and their beloved post counts are gone. its heart breaking, yet creepy that such meaningless things surround their lives.
how different are they from hyde's delusions of elevating ones self based on their post count or username...

so I left it open with a comprimise, and up to each individual moderator. Fair to let one person point out it's a repost, beyond that it is just pointless.

RS is a service that we are given and where we dont have to pay for. SO QUIT BITCHING | Let me explain something to you. Disobedience of rules is only problematic when there is a legit reasoning as to why the rule has been placed.
The fact that it annoys !NiteRaven doesn't sound like a legit enough reason to me, or several other members that have posted in this thread...
