This is not funny today.

Indeed. This is how the timing of a joke is important too.

Just the same I don't get it.

?

[Vykranth]

Really bad bad bad taste today ...

[firey]

you guys do realize that this was posted... a week ago when the land was quite dry.

[presence06]

too soon..

[Azies]

I get it, and I'd laugh, but a lot of my friends, and family live in the Tsunami risk area. Oh yeah it was posted a week ago, damn dude... mother nature unfunnied your joke.

This was posted one week ago, just the fact that it was revived today makes it worse. So if it was the case that he was banned for this seems a bit wrong.

Yes, if it had been posted today it would have been bad taste, but it wasn't.

agreed.

I'll be honest, I find some of the responses in the Oil/Gas thread far worse.

It's just joke, maybe dark, but no harm intended (2nd pic). Neowin defense force overreacting again.

[instant.human]

I wasn't complaining about this threat in general. I had Turions post from today in mind...

[*RedBull*]

For all of you who do not like my picture. GET OVER IT. The point to the picture is the make fun of the dude running toward the tsunami instead of away from it. I only chopped off a portions of words, and realigned one word. Essentially I made very little adjustment to the picture. I am under a lot of stress at work and I found some relief in this. I have family in Japan who were affected by the earthquake and family who are in an evacuation zone. So go take your whiney little arses somewhere else. Your mommy might kiss your boo boo.

The original poster can't haven't gotten banned for this... Right?

I mean, it's one thing to see a bunch of posters make idiots of them selves with their knee jerk replies of outrage with out checking the date of the original post, but for an admin to just ban like that would be... well, pretty bad administrating I guess.

I lol'd anyway(so ban me).

OP was banned for other reasons. Guilt by association to the thread is the only thing these flame baiters have done.

psst....don't tempt the Mods...

[timster]

too soon..

i guess if "too soon.." was Thursday March 3 when this thread was started

No the OP was not banned for this post. No worries :)

[ArKeYa]

Why are some of you overreacting to the replies on this thread. We were not condemning the op. It was just pointed out the unfortunate timing of the joke. It cannot be helped. Nature did it, it just happened. I didn't see any flaming in this thread, except maybe a little by those who overreacted to the reactions. smh.
