Looks like Toast is pretty lenient with granting access. Just be careful not to get warned or purg'd again, since you'll permanently lose access.

Most of them are whining and a lot of long time users have already been kicked out.

Like you I was in purg when it happened. If you message dtoast he will grant you access. But if you get another purg or suspension you're gone for good.

This is just out of curiosity.

There were a couple of long time members on my tagged users list that were in purgatory when CE was made a closed shop and they are now out of purgatory and have been logging in. But I was wonderng where they have been posting?

I haven't seen them here or in Hellhole. So are there any active or semi-active forums where they might have been posting?

Like Korey and Toonstack said, you can message them and get back in most likely. They were doing that for people who were in other statuses when the change took place

I'm in the same boat as TC, I hadn't bothered to ask DT or anyone because I saw a post on the "Message Board Help" (lol, what a joke of a name) board where someone else asked to be let back in and Error pretty much just told him to fuck off and locked the topic so I figured there was no point.

If I don't have access to CE there's literally no reason for me to be here anymore.

I'd still message DT. Error and the other mods don't have the ability to give users access to CE.

Only trully active forum on this dying site.

Cases in point: Poll Of The Day only has 5 pages and some of the topics have been on the front page for days! Random Insanity, The Couch and The Forum have only ONE page to it and some of the topics are MONTHS old!

Current Events, Hellhole and Non-Stop General Gaming are the only trully active boards around here.

Can I ask, What is your problem with C.E? I love posting in C.E!

You just described it perfectly: Those first board are populated with people who have lives outside of GameFAQs while the others are populated by people with nothing better to do than to post on a dying site. I don't want to read through pages upon pages of "Rate my wifu" topics to get to something that MIGHT be interesting.

Depends on what you consider active, though. I wouldnt say PotD or the sex board were super active. But we still had people who posted often enough That said, PotD probably has less since more people have left to go to discord, and some probably left for good. And some even transferred over to CE

Though, I like the slower moving boards. CE moves way too fast. And seems like it has too many topics But its whatever

How tf does someone get purged for two months? I think the worst I got was like 10 karma loss and that's when I was an impolite and rambunctious teenager.

That is simple. For constant trolling and abusive behaviour and for having other purgatories on your account.

The admins determine how bad the punishment will be and can add any length to a purg and having previous purgatories will add even more time to one.

A purgatory can be anything from 7 days to 6+months depending on how bad you broke the rules and if you have had previous purgs.

Before they changed the criteria for being able to post in CE you would get members making "Hello topics" after coming out of 3 - 6 month purgs.

CE was always the most weirdly sensitive place on the site, so it fits. Constantly got modded for inane shit there.

Maybe this will lead to a PotD renaissance as new users flock here.

To be fair, that was before DToast decided to give a known KOS user access to CE on a newly created account.

I got purged for 6 months for spoiling something that happened in the Spider-Man comics in the 90s without using spoiler tags.
...which got retconned in the 90s in an extremely stupid way... which Marvel have pretended that it never happened since then...

that's unfortunately fair, spoilers don't expire due to time or retcons on gamefaqs and they never have

spoilers are only really fair game if they've been used on promotional material (Darth Vader) or are based on real events (The Titanic), and even then you can only freely spoil those things.

the entirety of the Star Wars Legends continuity isn't fair game to spoil because Disney has no interest in acknowledging it exists anymore

edIt: also, if you got purg'd for 6 months, that was not your only offense by a long shot
