wikipedia's blackout is pretty lametastic. they could have done much better, completely turning themselves off instead of redirecting to the notice page which you can prevent from showing by hitting escape.

Pepsi · 18th January 2012, 20:26

Also, it doesn't black out when you view it on your smartphone..

StN · 18th January 2012, 20:58

Who's gonna do the SP album reviews now?

doppelgänger of someone · 18th January 2012, 21:10

er so what's the deal with this ZeroBC banning? What did he do exactly?

And this GPforum... thing, it is CHOKE full of people! At this moment 300+ users online, compared to ~50 users here (40 of them are Ab/StN's alt accounts anyway...)

xor · 18th January 2012, 21:29

He made a review about a Smashing Pumpkins album. He then took pie's bait and got trolled. Then he self owned himself with pimp-x and rambled all sorts of weird OG shit until the ban stick came out.

He then made a thread on GPOD because he was upset with ng gamez banning him. The GPOD collective mocked him and put his thread into the Hall Of Shame.

Top marks to Poison, you pulled a big one there. A troll for the record books I think.

p01s0n · 18th January 2012, 21:33

i wasn't trolling, the guy's a phaggot.

Ab · 18th January 2012, 21:36

I think he's having a psychotic episode. And by psychotic episode, I mean a real actual psychotic episode. Hope someone's able to help.

p01s0n · 18th January 2012, 21:52

is this going to result in another lightspeed? cause it would be nice to have a heads up if that's the case.

TnT · 18th January 2012, 22:08

Cause I'm lazy, please direct me to this, I mean p01s0n has baited pretty heavily in a few threads but few have arc'd up enough to get banned over it, I'd like to see that.

Looks a bit that way

Spink · 18th January 2012, 22:43

I didn't know chiQ and BaM had seperated

chiQ · 18th January 2012, 22:53

Ages ago, and just in the marriage department. We're still buddies.

I'm very worried about ZeroBC. I tried to get him to see his doctor today, but that went down like a lead balloon. Giving him some come-down time, then I'm going to see what he says.

mpx · 18th January 2012, 22:56

Honestly though I hope he is okay. When I was 16 or something I had my first LAN, I stayed at his house with Endymion and it was a really cool time and he was a good dude. I didn't really stay in contact with him since then though.

It sucks that he doesn't think that he is getting the help he needs and feels like the mental health industry has failed him. With my job I see a lot of people go through the Mental Health Act and some of it is scary stuff, but a lot of it is good news. I hope he can gain some insight into his illness/es and perhaps try prescription medication again. Not to rely on, just something to clear things up for him while he gets better.

I will say that speaking from personal experience, the mental health availability and help can be so much better than it currently is.

Yeah. I started off mocking him somewhat playfully because I thought he'd stayed up all night on the turps and then actually took the time to read his blog that he subsequently linked as well as one of the videos and felt like a cunt.

I don't think poison had anything to do with it, he seems more angry at Pimp-X ;D

But seriously doesn't seem like the ZeroBC that I used to play quake, that guy IIRC didn't react so badly.

kRAdENkO · 19th January 2012, 00:14

Don't know the guy, other than that he mods the QWCTF group on facebook.

Noticed strange posts on that, then additional strangeness on here. Finally read through his zerobc.net.nz blog and realised that this guy needs help.

He seems to be paranoid and completely disconnected from reality. Poor dude.

Yeah his blog is pretty heavy. I can't imagine how that police stuff would have been like.

Hope is ok.

CCS · 19th January 2012, 00:29

Can't believe his thread got deleted as well. That's really sadsack!

TnT · 19th January 2012, 00:34

That's actually pretty scary, hope the dude gets the help he needs, he always seemed like a decent guy, but that is one serious step off the deep end.

That guy needs help, and I don't think he would listen to something like "you got a problem mate please see the doctor" because I imagine he thinks other people are the problem. IMO it is better to say to him "it is not worth getting angry about this, you are better than this" (without being patronizing of course).

Please update us on this. <3

Nothing · 19th January 2012, 02:06

Mental illness - such a fuckin' hard pill to swallow.
Hope things get better for him.

Pimp-X · 19th January 2012, 06:15

The thread isn't deleted, it's moved to the mods forum. I don't delete threads, they just go somewhere to die.

While it was an interesting distraction and amusement for some, it was a public display of a personal breakdown that doesn't need to remain a spectacle - It is my opinion that anyone who thinks it should be in the open doesn't understand what was happening, which is fine - return to your regularly scheduled Pic Of The Day thread.

StN · 19th January 2012, 07:36

Part of Zeros posts asked what had Pimp-X ever done. Sad that he can't see that Tim has protected him.

wish I hadnt watched that. I am just glad people here didn't feed into his issues.

aR Que · 19th January 2012, 09:21

Can't watch till I get home, dammit.
If the dude is as angry and frustrated as indicated, he needs to get himself the real natural self administered medication to chill him the fuck out.

The mental health care system is built for people that don't fit in the normal box... but it's still just another box.

IANAMHP

wazza · 19th January 2012, 09:43

The idea that he was being filmed/recorded by a mate/friend while he talked to the MHP suggests to me he was showing off and being a twit. His rage out at the end is just that, IMO.

There's no denying he's a fruitcake though, but I'm pretty sure that was all for the lols.
