GARRY'S MOD BAN LIST
I didn't know where to go with this, so I figured here would be alright. If not, please let me know and direct me to the proper forum:

Some users have been permanently banned from the Garry's Mod forum for reasons such as "dumb", (This very reason cited by a member, claiming it was from their own notice).

Mine was:
--------

You have been permanently banned from all Garry's Mod discussions.
You were banned by garry :D.
Reason: "Didn't read the sticky thread"

---------

Anyone else receive one? If so, please copy and paste the notice exactly as it appears.

I made ONE post in General Discussion asking for help. It was moved to the help section by a mod and all was well... Until now, randomly. What gives with the banning? I didn't break any of the posted rules. I paid money for a product I have been unable to use for 4 months now, and would like some answers and solutions that actually work.

I also forgot to note that my one and only thread-starting post was made back in mid-November, a little under a month after Gmod 13 came out. I just needed help with a problem, (which persists to this day and I cannot play the game at all because of it) and was banned for, what I can only assume, posting my ONE & ONLY thread-starting post in the general discussions, (though it has not been made clear to me). I ask that others post here so there can be a running list to see if a clear reason for the bans can be discovered. Thank you in advance.

i was banned from garry:D for the reasom "Dumb" i was trying to get help and he just blocked all of my topics and i wasn't doing anything wrong
Ty2999 Feb 17, 2013 @ 3:33pm 
he also sent me a link to the update but it didn't give not much help

he banned me also, i suspect for being the first to find out the new secret phrase and posting it (and the way how you can find it in the future). Garry and his mods are KNOWN to use the banhammer for no good reason on their forums. I saw it happen all the time. Everybody trolls on the forum, then somebody got banned for using a chuck norris joke (only once!) and he got banned right away. Another person said a difficult word they didn't understand and they banned him for that. While it is their right to do that, it doesn't show respect to their fans. I know the game lost a lot of fans simply because of the unfair banning.

You were banned by garry :D.
Reason: "dumb"

Same here, pretty much. I'm not even really sure what I did, but that one thread was the only reason I could think of. Either way, it's wrong to treat the people who paid him money for a working product, (that has yet to work properly) this way. If his game was free, he could take all the time and break all he wanted.

I'm not familiar with the secret phrase. What is it and how can you find it?

Lol Wow, that's ridiculous.
Yeah, the banning and the game never working properly has turned a lot of people away from gmod. It sucks because it is a fun game.

Also, if any of you are unsure if your problems are due to outdated hardware, you can check to see if your computer can run Gmod here :

And please spread this thread to others who have been banned and/or had other issues with the Gmod forums!

Your ban message would have said why, I imagine.
I was banned from Garry's email. Why I kept webcaming myself to him naked.

yeah is everyone saying garrys mod stuff in here?
"You have been permanently banned from all Garry's Mod discussions.
You were banned by a Steam Community Moderator.
Reason: "cheats" "
Good to know stupid-as-hell moderators are still out and about, huh?
And i love how it just says 'Steam Community Moderator'
I guarantee you the stupid ♥♥♥♥ is just abusing. :I
