11:51PM [Catterwall()] Excuse me
11:51PM [Catterwall()] Can you help me with something
[Simba] I could try.
11:52PM [Catterwall()] I just got banned from one of the channels
[Simba] ok
11:52PM [Catterwall()] But the reasoning for the ban was sort of nonsensical
11:52PM [Catterwall()] I'll admit, I went kinda hyper at first with my posts
11:52PM [Catterwall()] And I guess I shit-posted
11:53PM [Catterwall()] But after they kicked me first, I rejoined the channel and got kicked after just posting one sentence.
[Simba] Some channels are like that - insular groups.
11:53PM [Catterwall()] Yeah, but come on
11:53PM [Catterwall()] This sort of behaviour?
11:54PM [Catterwall()] It's just uncivilized
11:54PM [Catterwall()] I'm all for discipline, but this is just plain insulting
[Simba] You're free to create another channel and invite the people to which you find civilized.
11:54PM [Catterwall()] Well, can you at least reach out for the user TheRashah and ask him why I got banned?
11:55PM [Catterwall()] All of their reasons were just insane.
11:56PM [Catterwall()] Hello?
[Simba] I'm not in a position to dictate other people's reasoning.
[Simba] I'm asking, though.
11:59PM [Catterwall()] Thanks.
12:00AM [Catterwall()] BTW
12:01AM [Catterwall()] I was under the handle BLAMMAN
12:05AM [Catterwall()] Excuse me
12:05AM [Catterwall()] Any results?
[Simba] They don't seem to want to discuss it.
12:05AM [Catterwall()] How so?
[Simba] No real response.
12:05AM [Catterwall()] They mentioned I was using a proxy.
12:05AM [Catterwall()] Is that an offense?
[Simba] Absolutely.  If it's found out that you are using a proxy, you could be banned from the entire network.
12:06AM [Catterwall()] I was using a Java extension to reach IRC!
12:06AM [Catterwall()] I wasn't doing anything wrong!
12:06AM [Catterwall()] Can't you mention that?
12:06AM [Catterwall()] Please?
12:07AM [Catterwall()] I've no other medium to resort to.
[Simba] I don't think your understanding of proxy is the same as mine or theirs.
[Simba] A web-based client isn't a proxy.
12:08AM [Catterwall()] I don't get it.
12:08AM [Catterwall()] I was a bit hyper-active at first, but this is just insane.
12:08AM [Catterwall()] How can something so small cause so much calamity in one night?
[Simba] #furry is a VERY insular, oldschool group of friends.  It takes a near miracle to be accepted as a new person there.
12:09AM [Catterwall()] I looked up to Artisan.
12:09AM [Catterwall()] But this sort of think just hurt me bad.
12:09AM [Catterwall()] Not to get dramatic here, but you understand what I'm saying, right?
[Simba] Not really.  It's just an Internet chat room - of which there are dozens.
12:10AM [Catterwall()] To be clear
12:11AM [Catterwall()] I kinda liked both Vinci and Arty
12:11AM [Catterwall()] But this sort of thing just kinda soured my perspective on them
12:11AM [Catterwall()] It's not a question of the room, it's a question of the people one interacts with.
[Simba] Sometimes people don't turn out as you expected, I guess.
12:12AM [Catterwall()] True enough.
12:12AM [Catterwall()] Thanks for the help.
12:12AM [Catterwall()] Sorry for the bother.
