Fuck io9.com (and Gawker in general, I guess...)

Well, I just got banned from commenting on all Gawker Media sites because I had the balls to comment that Charlie Jane Anders posts shitty uninformed articles... she (I use the term loosely) posted a "spoiler" today about the next Riddick movie, saying they had the next film's plot... AND SHE POSTED THE SYNOPSIS OF CHRONICLES OF RIDDICK! When I called her out (as many other people did) they banned me because of my salty language. In the past, "she" has also posted an article about God of War concept art in which she referred to an image of Kratos as a "Future Warrior". She constantly posts things she is clueless about, and passes her articles off as truth. I'm pretty pissed that I got banned from commenting for speaking my mind. Anyone else had bad experiences with their sites?

I've heard of other people having similar problems. The only Gawker site I read is Kotaku. I used to read Gizmodo, but then I realized 95% of everything discussed on that site would never develop beyond the prototype stage or would never be adopted by the public at large, and stopped wasting my time.

So if you're going to throw around bigoted comments you'll get banned from here too.

I go for the low blow when I'm mad, not that YOU would know anything about that. Douche. (I love you)

You seem to have a lot of anger about things that don't matter

Yeah, grow up, guy. It's not a democracy. If you're a dick you're going to get banned from places. Wah wah.

Fair enough, I'll take that. BUT, regardless, this is coming from a guy who is paid to be a dick about things.

So get a job where you are paid to be a dick about things. This is like complaining that you couldn't play video games at work, even though other people get paid to play video games.

Honestly, I am a Sr Web Designer for adameve.com, so I can't complain about getting away with shit at work... AANNNDDD, even if I were paid to be a dick, it doesn't change the fact that it's stupid that io9 banned me for speaking my mind about their writers. Meh, I'm talking in circles, and it is pointless. At this point, Devin, I'm more surprised that you're still following this thread than I am that I got banned.
