Ban School Episode - The Notorious G.M.P. (GM Player)

Now I wonder on certain policy of websites these days, especially those who have communities. Now a degree of responsibility seems to take hold on all of these sites, most do, but some take nanny'ing to a ridiculous degree. Now I would give a go at many sites for nitpicking, even the top sites in my review, no matter how well they do i do have problems with them. However as I mentioned in an earlier Post, DuelCity are now banning members on the Basis that 'GM' (a popular beginning to alot of names in the YO2 World) is in their name. Now here is actual proof, provided by myself of the degree which duelcity wish to segregate people.

Yes this is what happened when I tried to join DuelCity as my oso favorite theme, under the name GMEngine. I mean? why bother, isn't that just a little Too Much? Where are they going to stop. Or Hell whats next, Ban people with non-YuGiOh Related Names? Get real people you can't make a community grow when you close down 1 third of the entire Games population from your site just down to their names. Now after watching this latest episode, I've officially had enough, I now encourage people to stop using DuelCity down to the basic facts we have infront of us, and these are as follows:

-- A Nice Rant --
  • Duelcity has a history of trying to control its members to an unhealthy degree.
  • Duelcity's Moderation staff currently edits posts for no constructive reason, just because they can.
  • DuelCity's Staff will tell you NOT to talk about topics.
  • DuelCity will catch you when your new to the game and basically stop you from making a name for yourself in the Game.
  • DuelCity actually banned over 80 people in 1 Day alone for a dispute that could have been solved by negociation.
  • DuelCity is basically Isolated themselves from the rest of the community.
  • DuelCityElite's as is which is the New DuelcityElite(created after TexcyBurkehart broke away from Soulless replacing I with a small case L after JJASH13 and WingedKuribo of VastaconINT told her to do so due to DCE's current bad repuation.) - {Information provided from JJASH13 from Vastacon.com-Shoutbox}
  • DuelCity now has "Junior Moderators", handpicked members of DuelCityElite, rather than Qualified People like most other sites.
  • Its card database is sluggish, and based on looks now rather than Robust Streamlined Searches.

Here is a message to the Administrator of DuelCity.com, your site is currently stagnant, whatever you try now is too late to save the websites reputation, the community doesn't view you as the number One Site. Not even close.

So in my Infamous Axiomical words i bring you the...

END TO CORRUPTION
CAMPAIGN


WE NEED YOU!

  2. I had to see for myself what was this all about so I went to check Duelcity's members list and found quite a few registered members with "GM" at the start of their names. It would seem a few of them are even posting there as well. Also, one of them registered just a few days ago.

    Something here just doesn't add up.
