Depending on how they dry and how they actually look once applied, I may have an update for this thread in the next few days/weeks. Wish me luck!!

Before I start, I do have a few points in defense of the whole Eugimon's Omega Pants thing. But this is neither the time nor thread to go into that topic. As >EXO<'s post above points out, it's important to remember that we, as rank-and-file members, don't always see the "whole picture." There was a bunch of behind-the-scenes stuff going on that we just don't see or have access to on the regular board. There's probably a whole slew of PM's and mod discussions related to this topic that we aren't even aware of. As >EXO< pointed out, there was a ton of deliberation and warnings given prior to the ban. Now, I'm sure there's a bunch of folks that will say, "Boo-hoo, we have a RIGHT to see those PM's and discussions." But frankly, we don't have a right to squat. Remember, this board is Shawn and Graham's world; we're just squirrels who get to have a little fun in it. The mods were put in place to keep things running smoothly and to relieve the two head guys of the day-to-day administration of things. If there's stuff they gotta talk about (such as this whole issue or something less serious such as debating whether or not to issue a warning to some member), we have no inherent right whatsoever to see those PM's or discussions. It's just one of those facts of life you have to accept as a member of any message board. But knowing our mods, they'll probably bust out that evidence if folks refuse to consider what's already out there on the boards. Our mods have a way of proving their point and backing their words up with evidence. But at the end of the day, there are rules in place for being a member of this board. Misterryno was given MULTIPLE warnings and even a temporary ban. Regardless of his enthusiasm and exuberance, I can't have too much sympathy for someone who knowingly violates the rules (setting up multiple accounts). Funny thing is, if he had just kicked back and waited for a mere three days, we wouldn't even be having this conversation. He had his chance at "redemption" during that temporary three-day ban. And frankly, he blew his chance.
