you if i was there i woulda been right on in there with falco
and uchi mouthing that guy off... And at skiiing where he says "want
a second chance make a second character"... wow thats kinda pathetic.
Those two spent good money on alot of CS items and are almost at the lvl
cap, to ask them to restart cuz of that is rediculous. And yes i spoke to
falco and that was the first time he ever got in trouble. Falco would NEVER
do anything mean or hurtful unless you really pissed him off.

I shall address this short and to the point, hopefully without bias.
First, the issue of whether he will do "anything mean or hurtful unless you really pissed him off." Well, I shall be critical now.
Hate me if you want.
I was dismissed from adminship shortly after the return of Falcomist from GardonOfRecluse, after Shadow_Shot relinquished his mastership of the guild. Yes, I will be bitter and to this day my respect for Falcomist has diminished greatly: I specifically stated that I was taking time off to study for my semester finals. Upon returning in January after my winter break, I was relocated to the rank of "Guard."
This is after 21 of 35 BusouRenkin members had quit the guild. Annie and RokNRolr (known as Rokky) were the only ones left, after Shadow_Shot announced a temporary reprieve from BusouRenkin. I was the Master of BusouRenkin during a time when no one wanted to assume the role.
I fail to see how a month's worth of inactivity merits dismissal. So yes, I shall say it: Falcomist changed. No longer the helpful person he claims to be.
Secondly, that assertion is on the basis of your opinion. Whereas in the real world money may buy you out of everything, it's more difficult to apply that in-game. Consequently, money spent is a failed investment, since the legal binding in which all of us agreed upon was broken. As the terms of service state:

Infringement results in action at the discretion of Outspark personnel. Whereas I feel the punishment is rather harsh, it appears Outspark is setting an example, as others have stated, in order to dissuade racism. Tolerance of racism, as stated before, results in decreased IGN and GameSpot ratings and consequently results in a reduced consumer base. They can't allow it.
