I wanna be a pancake....

Sometimes... when I'm alone. I like to lay flat on a circle rug, with a pillow(Butter) on me, and pretend I'm a Pancake.

Sweet syrup all over my body...

We don't have a relationship with the moderators that would allow for this kind of favoritism. Sure, we kind of look out for each other in a sense, but asking for someone to get banned or have their post removed simply because we don't agree with them or even because we dislike them is not something that happens.

I'll just leave that here and let you decide what likely happened...

If I was called a pancake I'd laugh it off as a complement, they're saying that I am full of happiness and people love seeing me in the morning.

I also love to be covered in syrup and impaled by a fork

And we have no evidence as to what the rest of the context was. That person could have a history of getting warned for harassing other posters, and that was the final straw

EDIT: holy shit the anti-riot circle jerk is out. Woe to any who try to actually use facts and logic

That Evelynn (The person who called the arbiter a pancake) didn't get banned, read it the picture you posted. THEIR POST GOT DELETED. Not their account. They got a warning and can continue like normal, without a ban or temp ban.

Maybe this a bait and I just took the hook, oh well :p

For those who want to read the thread:

There's a big different between getting your post removed and getting banned from the boards. You're making a mountain out of a molehill.

I am a waffle and find 'Pancake' very offensive.

I haven't liked the boards moderation for a long, long, long time.

I could not read that title and keep a straight face.

Anyone else?

Possibly because "pancake" is sometimes used as a racial slur against Asians.

This does sound like classic Riot mentality though. Banned for fucking nothing. Keep it up, Riot. You are close to achieving EA Games levels of hatred by your community.

Pancakes increase toxicity in soloQ, deserved ban.
