So it's almost never I blog twice in one day... But this calls for it...I wasn't incredibly close to this users, but he was a friend of mine anyway, and he was the best friend on GS of one of my good friends. Recently, ZeldaRocks9, an officer at The Guide and Discussion Union and Off-Topic Legionaries, has been banned. He was reported for a very old post he made that broke a major rule on GS... the age rule. Now, while he IS 13 now, he WAS 12 when he made the post, and whoever found the post reported him. This is allmyself, PolskaKing, and Papermariofan57 could find out.I can understand why he was banned, I'm just not sure why someone would want to report that when that sort of post was made such a long time ago.

In any case, it's worth noting he was a really cool guy here. He was friendly, sociable, and he was a great officer in the unions he was an officer in. Zelda, we're going to miss you. And Polska will the most, I hope you somehow read this and know that. Goodbye, Zelda. We hope you enjoy your life wherever you go from here.

Aww.. he was a nice user but he was in a rush to get a lot of posts, I will still miss him though.

It always sucks to hear someone banned.
Posted Oct 27, 2009 6:35 pm PT
What a lame way to get banned, damn you internet pricks!!
Posted Oct 27, 2009 6:35 pm PT
@Tispers: Well, GS has the 13 and up rule for a reason, but Zelda is 13 now, so even though he WAS 12, that doesn't mean he should be banned NOW.

So he can still contact Customer Service about it, can he?

@sonic__323: Bad news is before we could help him outside GS and tell him what he could do, he had already made an alt and logged in, and got banned from that. At this point, he prolly won't be unbanned since he also ban-dodged.

@Cloud_765: I know the reason, I was once at that age and unable to sit still about joining places like these. Of course I was still a total noob around that age. Hmm if only people knew how to report properly, then there would be a whole lot less misunderstandings.

Yeah, I'm afraid that ruined his chances of coming back..
Posted Oct 27, 2009 6:52 pm PT
Thank you for the memories Zelda

WHY!!!! *cries stupidly and shoots self with a gun*
Posted Oct 27, 2009 7:23 pm PT
Ah that's a shame. They should have let it slide, a little too late for a banhammer one would think?
Posted Oct 27, 2009 7:33 pm PT
That sucks.
Posted Oct 27, 2009 7:46 pm PT
It's said when ever anyone passes/is banned, in fact I was sad when a close friend of mine was banned (AshleyAMK), but I didn't know it when he was. But all we can do is hope for the best for him now.
Posted Oct 27, 2009 7:59 pm PT
That sucks, later ZR. I'm fourteen, so I'm alright.
Posted Oct 27, 2009 8:15 pm PT
It's always sad to see a member of GS get banned...
Posted Oct 27, 2009 8:26 pm PT
I never got to know ZeldaRocks either.
This just flat-out sucks.
Posted Oct 27, 2009 8:45 pm PT
that sucks, he was nice,
Posted Oct 27, 2009 9:07 pm PT
Why, out of all people, ZeldaRocks9? (Hangs head in shame.)
Posted Oct 27, 2009 9:17 pm PT
I never knew this user, but he sure seemed to be a very important one here.
Posted Oct 27, 2009 9:24 pm PT
he...is...dead?never gonna come back!
Posted Oct 27, 2009 9:42 pm PT
As I said in Polka's blog, he shouldn't have been banned if he's 13 now. This should be reversed.
Posted Oct 27, 2009 11:35 pm PT
He was a good man.
Posted Oct 28, 2009 12:21 am PT
And now Zelda rocks a little less...
Posted Oct 28, 2009 2:34 am PT
It's a deep $h!t all these bannings lately... mythicfiredark, a kewl dude i knew from Nintendo Evolution, was banned yesterday also... and i dunno why... i got p!$$€d off, really... i mean, c'mon, all these banhammers lately... what's wrong with everyone...?
Posted Oct 28, 2009 2:56 am PT
I didnt know him but he sounds like he was a cool guy. I cant believe he was banned because of an old post...
Posted Oct 28, 2009 5:14 am PT
That's kind of dumb.
Posted Oct 28, 2009 6:57 am PT
I didn't know him myself but that is really bad. It is always hard to see one of your friends get banned.
Posted Oct 28, 2009 9:51 am PT
That sucks, but I'm sure there are more underage users on this site so he won't be the first or last to get banned for that reason.
Posted Oct 28, 2009 10:13 am PT
Good bye Zelda
Posted Oct 28, 2009 2:03 pm PT
I don't get why GS has such strict laws about age anyway. Its hardly got any explicit content on it now has it.
Posted Oct 28, 2009 2:24 pm PT
It always sucks when a nice guy is banned
Posted Oct 28, 2009 2:30 pm PT
ZeldaRocks, if your reading this, you will still win the posting competition at The Cookies Union, and we will remember you a little longer.
This is very unfortunate, very. WE WILL MISS YOU!

He was very friendly and social, very, very social. But GS must enforce their ToU, and it was sadly broken by this very nice guy.

The age limit is a little ridiculous. All the explicit-ish content is blocked for your account until you reach the age anyways, so why not let a 12-year old join? Although, I have to admit, many 12 year olds are not very mature, and exceptions cannot be made for this one person.
Who looks through such old posts anyways?

EDIT: Alright. That's just ridiculous. Why has every comment here been thumbed down? That's just disrespectful. I will thumb them up for you.
Posted Oct 28, 2009 4:30 pm PT
That sucks. Anyone with a name like "Zeldarocks9" had to be pretty cool .
Posted Oct 29, 2009 6:39 am PT
Hopefully he'll be back after talking with CS.
Posted Oct 29, 2009 3:19 pm PT
Reported...4 a VERY old post! Whoever had the guts to do that should be ashamed of themselves.
Posted Oct 29, 2009 4:49 pm PT
Dont Worry Friends This also happend to me and i lost one friend
