What has this community come to when our best player, who makes everyone laugh on top of being the best player in the world, gets banned from smashboards? I am boycotting smashboards untill he is back. I know that my efforts alone wont do much, but if people join we can get him back.

Listen to what the mods have to say, everyone. They aren't being unreasonable. If you actually think about the consequences of unbanning someone who was banned for ENTIRELY LEGITIMATE REASONS, you'd realize that the mods are just doing what has to be done.

****ing think about it.

EDIT: Also, Animal, I've always loved what you've had to say on these boards. I think you're a great person to have on the forums. I wish you weren't boycotting.

It won't do anything
The mods are fully justified in what they did, unfortunately
And I'm sure mango too knew what he was doing
it's probably just another example of how little he cares

regardless, I see absolutely no need for him to be banned for flaming/trolling
The communities average age is probably hovering near 18
Hell the game is about ready to hit puberty
It's stupid to still be so strictly censored on this site
When I say strictly I mean the fact that infractions can still be handed out for 'flaming' or 'censor dodging', **** that doesn't, or shouldn't, bother anyone, yet we still can't do it.
If you're still getting offended by what you read on the internet you need to grow up or go play brawl (offended?)

And to address the argument that mango should not be given special privileges as far as infractions/banning is concerned
Mods are given special privileges, flaming them comes at a higher price, they've able to use their judgment,
Most of them haven't done **** aside from know the right person and shown an ability to be obedient to rules they themselves probably find unnecessary.

Mango, behind his trolling, his poor attitude, his flaming, his disrespect, has done more to advance the metagame, give hope, and make smash fun than any of the mods have.

As I said before, if you want to seriously discuss him getting unbanned, post in forum support. Otherwise, one might just assume you're trolling. Which would be bad. Both for yourself, and any argument you have for having Mango's ban reversed.
