Well as of 3 pm CST 9-27-2001 I was no longer able to post on the VBB.


I don't beleive the V Gods did this themselves.  I have reason to beleive on Sithinator ( [email protected] ) hacked into their UBB and placed a post-block on my account.


The message is a permissions one.  I have attempted to contact Volition but have received no response.  If they did do this themselves I would like an explaination

It may very well have been the V gods

I finally got a response on ICQ from dave baranec - he just asked me to stop messaging him.  Obviously he still holds a grudge against me for having a difference in opinion with him on how programming should be done, and having the college board on my side.

Well if V themselves really did ban me this comes as a major blow.  This is their payment to me for over 20,000 lines of code and 2 years of my free time dedicated to promoting their games.  

Before this another 2 years promoting their games was very forseeable.  Red Faction is a great game, but if this is how they repay their most dedicated fans loyalty I will join the ranks of the legends that have disappeared, or perhaps remain but just take the kindness and the defense of volition away when it comes to be reviewing the behavior of their games in relation to the code.


The future is now unclear, you don't backstab  your greatest fans without ripples in the community.  Consider this the rock dropped in the pond.

Or maybe he was just busy at the time and didn't have time to chat.  Hell, consider yourself lucky to get anything out of them.

Kazan you know perfectly well that this has no place here. Either email the Volition staff and have them correct the problem or ignore it all together. HLP is a completely separate board and considering the current state of the majority of the VBB, I don't think we want to get dragged into it's affairs.
