Advertising is not just giving a link to another site - some sites are well known to the extent that nicknames are just as bad. The usual punishments apply here as they do to giving links.

I joined but Muhed getting banned is ridiculous, they even have their own constitution, what a laugh. You wouldn't guess they're running a POKEMON forum, they treat it like it's an actual continent
As funny as it would be to lie about it and get Muhed the troll permabanned within like 3 days of joining a site, i PM'd the main administrator telling him i took no offense =P
Might I point out that the admins of that site probably don't know who Muhed is? I could quite easily understand them banning a 'new guy' that turns up and starts poking fun at other new members, especially if they're unaware that these people already knew each-other. I'd hardly call it outrageous. ^^
To be fair, I'd be more inclined to agree with you if that was more of the story, but it wasn't. Muhed had posted and showed he was willing to have sensible debate, so it wasn't as if he's posts were solely just 'insulting' others. Furthermore, there was no verbal warning given to him at any stage, I'd think it's a rather slippery way of doing things if you're going to do it rigidly. Something like a premaban in this situation should not be taken rigidly as this, but rather it should be a weighted decision.
the difference is that i stated i was a member of this place and i posted some thoughtful posts in other threads that, in the name of common sense, could tip someone off to saying "yeah maybe this kid's kidding about throwing blatant insults and flamebait to members of the very board he came from." i even used a heart after one of my insults ~_~
American Utack feels alienated by strange online European Pokemon communities.[/joke]Looks rather nifty, and it's amusing to try and make sense of what the french site is saying ^-^ Hooray for pkmn.net making friends with other sites!
