I think this sums it up pretty much:

Guess it's not surprising. He always said he was going to get banned too lol.
Damn, Meta got banned huh?

Yes, as mentioned in the posts above.
I'm pretty close , i guess, i might aswell stop saying those kind of things, hahah. I feel sad for Meta though, he wanted to reach his goal of 2000 post counts i think lol

He probably only had like 50 real posts.
After he got that 1 warning revoked, his post quality hit the negatives.
All right guys, let's keep this thread for questions about the WBO. Meta is banned, but we don't need to gossip about it.

If you have any questions about this (or anything else), feel free to PM myself or Kai-V. Thanks.

Well, it was meant to be more rhetorical. Alright moving on...
I need to get better at writing eulogies, for my public speaking class. And this happens to concide with today's events

RIP Meta.

You will be missed.
Sure you spammed; which was stupid.
But you are the one who made me like the WBO again; as my interest was fading in Beyblade. You shortly changed my mind about who you were. Not just some Kane X Makendo kid, but something more. You kept it active and fun. Everyone enjoyed roasting your stupid posts.
The real detriment is to see your in-progress comic series closed, and to see your tournament go though. I hope the LA members can make enough people to do their event, now.
I know a lot of people hated you, as did I at times, but you made the beginning of Burst all the more enjoyable. It was sad to see so many hate you outside of the forums, and even research you. That was a funny time, though.

I'm glad we shared so many great moments, through the bad.

Your friend, Neo
Meta never had the resources he said he did in order to host the event that he promised. When we asked him to submit an event proposal, he submitted one with literally no details. And this was the event he "canceled" his LA event for (even though he reneged on that shortly after he refused to provide a more thorough proposal).

I am very sorry to say this, but Meta was getting many players' hopes up with no intention or means of following through. Our community deserves better than this.

At any rate, I am sure you two are still in touch, so there's no need to write a eulogy for him here. Smile But I respect that you did, and I understand you two are really friends, so I'll leave it as it is.

Again, if anyone has questions about this decision please feel free to reach out to either myself or Kai-V. In order to prevent this thread from descending into gossip, future posts about this subject made here will be removed.

(I agree that it's a big shame about his comic, though; it was genuinely funny and creative.)
Did the WBO cut ties with Toy Wiz earlier or did that just happen? I noticed that it wasn't there so I was wondering.
I removed it because we hadn't had any contact with them in years. Doesn't mean we'll never do anything again, but there's no plans.

ok, but why you removed Zankye? he is still Affiliate right. he's very active too

btw, who browse WBO with Originalzynkye username? Jose or his Dad?

edit:- sorry if my statement above sounds rude or unfriendly but when i'm sleepy i type little weirdly lol

Yeah XD, he wanted to reach his goal badly , like 2k - 3k posts or something? and posts spam sometimes. Rest in Pepperonis Meta Madness.

no offence but Brad said to stop gossiping about Meta Madness [m8], anyways i will miss meta too
Even if he is banned, he can still change his avatar, right ? I just changed mine today and he stole it already.
He shouldn't be able to do anything like that, but we'll look into it.

About Zankye; I don't think he was ever actually on our affiliates bar? If he was and it was removed, it's totally my mistake and will be fixed.
Apparently he set it to Missingno's avatar right before he was banned, and then it finally loaded.
It was a broken image of that size for me.
Yeah, that's what I figured. Thanks.
This is not possible. I changed my avatar this morning, and he was banned yesterday.
Well, we went ahead and removed his avatar. He shouldn't be able to change it, so not sure what happened. Thanks for letting us know.
It's just an avatar, it's not that important haha.

I was just curious about it, but thanks anyway.

We don't measure it, and even if we did, hard to differentiate between bot accounts versus actual new users.
