The end of an era. Nothing is sacred in the eyes of zoomers.

You guys always pick some fucking name that I have NEVER heard of anywhere, and go on saying like how this guy was a legend, what a loss it is for the server, end of an era, blablabla, and after that, nobody ever loses a single word about them again.
TROLLING me with this shit. If I ever kick the bucket, I also want to be called a legend for no god damn reason.

Bonermaster, it's understandable that you are a little baby with tiny baby legs and tiny baby hands. For your historical reading pleasure I am linking some things related to them from the admin complaint forums.

As an admin, successful complaints
viewtopic.php?f=53&t=11841
viewtopic.php?f=53&t=12761

As a player
viewtopic.php?f=54&t=29275
viewtopic.php?f=54&t=27839

Also as an admin but go together
viewtopic.php?f=54&t=13013
viewtopic.php?f=54&t=12885
Still slightly on theme
viewtopic.php?f=54&t=12991

They also grew up geographically close to me, and I respect that. They went from player, to admin, to player, to break, to nonhuman player. Their avatar well represented who they are.

You've never met Bryce Pax? The only good static character on this god-forsaken server? (with the possible exception of Reed Glover)

Edit: Man barely ever plays on Sybil. That explains it.

(you can use CentCom for a permanent link to the ban since /tg/ makes all of our permanent bans public and it scrapes it from there)

He will be back.

A team of highly trained assistants is traveling tactically through maint to free Pax from gbj.

God knows it's happened enough times, yeah.

I never would have imagined a world with IcePacks or ForcefulCJS becoming /tg/ admins but

Well

yeah

The fact that people actually trusted someone who was a complete and utter greytider with admintools says a lot.

Now that Icepacks is gone we should have more pleasant and non toxic players re-welcomed into the community like Oldman Robustin

This is a threat

Can somebody who actually knows what they’re talking about get in here and defend Ice Packs from being wrongly characterised as toxic or as a simple greytider?

It’s a sign of how bad things have gotten that he’s been playing since 2006 or something and only recently has his playstyle been deemed a problem.

Ah yes sir asking to be converted to cult is clearly peak TG culture and not breaking the rules

Honestly my feelings are pretty mixed, he was at least funny, but really, you do what pax did for so long and eventually even the Buddha toolboxes you to death.

GLORF.

I distinctly remember him trapping a newbie just in the arrivals hallway with vending machines and then hitting one until it fell over on both of them while I was still actively adminning.
Pax is known for his shittery for a reason, and honestly, it really IS a surprise that he's lasted this long. It's not a RECENT thing, it's a recurring occasional thing

The only time I have ever had a positive experience with Pax was taking off his suit and watching him burn.

One down, five to go.

He was only recently permabanned for it. It’s an indication that admins have recently become more strict in a way that invalidates the playstyle of somebody who’s been playing on the server longer than anybody, which indicates that it’s excessive. It shows no sense of humour or appreciation for somebody else’s harmless fun

Yeah sure.

I've played with Pax for like... Pretty much as long as I've been playing. Had tons of interactions with him. Almost always they were funny. He did stuff that you would probably consider "greytiding" but it wasn't for his own benefit usually, since he almost always just got lynched for it, he did it for the comedy of it. That's why he got away with a lot of things, 'cause most people found them funny. "Toxic" is definitely the wrong word for Pax.

Towards the end of his play he got pretty into gunpowder and explosives, I reckon he probably blew up a few people that shouldn't have gotten blown up, and combined with the cult conversion I imagine that's what led to him being perma'd. It's anyone's guess though - clearly the cult conversion wasn't enough by itself because someone was just recently given a 1-mo antag ban for the exact same thing.

"harmless"

His antics may have been funny, but they certainly weren't harmless. Sinfulbliss has the right of it, his antics weren't malicious and he lets himself be killed for them, but I bet it wasn't really that funny to the people who got killed as collateral damage or had their rounds shat on as a result.

It's something I'm noticing a lot on here, is the amount of people who go "BUT MUH HARMLESS FUN" when someone's griefing, as though the victim of the griefer who just wanted to do their own thing didn't get their round ruined.

He's one of the most frequently permabanned players in /tg/ history, what are you talking about

Like he's straight-up one of those players where when he appeals the perma, admins go "But you're just going to get permabanned again" and then he inevitably does
