I missed it too.
But TheAnswer just posted the PALGN Facebook page about his 1 month ban.
EDIT: Found the drama.

It's probably not up for discussion, but why did Blast get banned? He was only defending himself after TheAnswer pulled a switch-a-roo. I mean, TheAnswer did make a pretty huge presumption about Blast only buying games to resell them for more cash.
On topic: It made me smile to find out that PALGN had a Facebook group.

1. It's not up for discussion.
2. This is the smile thread. Back on topic, please, or I'll lock.

Guy calls up looking for Neil.
Neil was the guy that worked here when I started that died of cancer.
Tell the guy Neil passed away (I feel way to blunt just saying he's dead)
... yeah turns out there's another Neil that works here.
... another Neil that just got back after having a heart attack....
had to laugh.

awesome email I got today made me laugh for ages
Chinese Call-Centre
Caller : Hello, can I speak to Annie Wan
Operator: Yes, you can speak to me.
Caller : No, I want to speak to Annie Wan !
Operator : Yes I understand you want to speak to anyone. You can speak to me. Who is this?
Caller : I'm Sam Wan . And I need to talk to Annie Wan! It's urgent
Operator : I know you are someone and you want to talk to anyone ! But what's this urgent matter about?
Caller : Well.... just tell my sister Annie Wan that our brother Noe Wan was involved in an accident. Noe Wan got injured and now Noe Wan is being sent to the hospital. Right now , Avery Wan is on his way to the hospital..
Operator : Look, if no one was injured and no one was sent to the hospital, then the accident isn't an urgent matter! You may find this hilarious but I don't have time for this!
Caller: You are so rude! Who are you?
Operator: I'm Saw Ree
Caller: Yes! You should be sorry . Now give me your name!!
Operator: That's what I said.. I'm Saw Ree ...
Caller: O h ......God!!! !

I'm sorry, but that is so awful on so many levels... for starters, why are they speaking English in a Chinese call centre?

Still not being capped 30 or so hours after we were supposed to. Our quota is 50 gigs, and I've downloaded 15 gigs over that so far, and still going. I'm just downloading anything that seems even half interesting xD

I discovered today that McDonald's still has those little boxes of cookies, and that they are also still pretty damn cheap ($1). They're still in the original shapes like Hamburglar, Grimace and random menu items with eyes!

I wouldn't worry if I were you, it's not your fault it hasn't ticked over yet. What are you meant to do? Stop using the internet service you are paying for? 
I just watched Jackass 3.5 and something Knoxville said made me laugh (and cry a little on the inside).
"Now Dunn's stepped in to up the failure rate to an all time high."
Yes, yes...bad taste and all that. But hey, it's never in good taste to make light of the deceased!

Saw an awesome Karnivool tour poster along the club strip tonight, thought fuck I want that. A couple of hours later get a message from a mate to meet me somewhere, he managed to tear the poster down and gave it to me, basically spent the rest of the night showing the poster to everyone trying to convince people to see them in a couple of weeks. I feel kinda guilty for taking it but also good for passing on the message to many. and fuck it will look good in my room. Though I'm thinking of copying it and posting it everyhwere.

I used to purchase them semi-regularly last year when I worked across the road from McDonalds. They go very well with a McFlurry.

I keep seeing it on the side, then seeing the face - it's totally an 'At first I was like, then I was like' moment.

Well that was odd, there is an older woman living here, like old old, and she asked the committee and owners corp if it was ok to put me down as a point of contact for St Johns ambulance should the need ever arise...they said no.
She came to see me just then asking if that was ok with me, i said of course it is and that i would have thought that we owed a duty of care to residents in the building regarding this type of thing, she is a lovely austrian woman who is still well in control of all her faculties. Their decision to make that decision for me has somewhat pissed me off.
It makes no sense to me due to the fact that people will ring me at fucking 3am to tell me in a drunken slur that they have locked themselves out, so i do not see what the problem would be with getting a phone call about someone who is possibly dying....arse backwards world.
But it makes it all worthwhile when you get the honest respect of someone for something that is absolutely no problem for me whatsoever.
