That's not what I meant. I mean he broke a rule a year ago, that's fine, he got punished for it. A year later you're still talking down to him as if he's been breaking rules ever since. Just douchery in my opinion. Gotta learn to let things go, Fidel.
And the other thing. Just seems stupid to me to let them make ingame accounts when they can't even make a forum account to go along with it. Sure it's not like it's a necessary thing but it really does help especially if you're trying to play the game well and want to learn more about things ingame. I'd understand if there were still ads to be frauded but that shit was gone ages ago.
It's just another rule. If you have been banned on the forums, you may not create another forum account. If you still do it, well, tough luck! What's so hard about following rules? Row row fight the power or what? Games need rules, if you just let everything go, a lot of douches will come and complain why they haven't been unbanned. It has always been and it will always be like this. AnimusRO rules are also pretty light, compared to other games/online communities, just saying.
Well, as I said, make a suggestion for it, if you think it's fair! But then make up your mind: either have voting + ads back sometime in the future, or get rid of forum perma bans.
