    my dad works for nintendo.
    today it appears "ask" is going nuts, there is even a member called @GBATEMP IS GAY
    and it doesn't appear to be normal regular bots, a few of the banned people even got legitimate questions..
    and there is a lot of insults...

    Can't know for sure, but it's either a banned member or a banned member's friends throwing a tantrum.

    I forgot
    He was banned, and then conveniently after he was banned the Temp kept (and keeps) getting hit with spam.

    Between here and there
    Coincidence exists, no need to start blaming solely based of a possibility. It's not like I like Margen, but you can't just start suspecting him due to mere speculation.

    my dad works for nintendo.
    thanks for pointing that..
    i think the dude was cool... he abused the like button but that was just it.. it was harmless.. had some fun with him. didn't think he would act this stupid..
    in case it's really him doing this.. without actual proof we can't really point the finger..
    but whoever is doing this, it's not achieving a damn thing.. that person is just making itself full of shame and act like a big fat baby..

    i liked margen, i remember we having fun with vinsclones.. i hope it's not him...

    I like the "Guilty until proven innocent" attitude being displayed as of late.
    Didn't cell9 recently leave on unhappy terms? Maybe he wants to see GBATemp burn?
    Also, there are people on both sides, trying to frame one another.
    Keep calm and report spam.

    (Thanks, GBATemp staff, for keeping this place clean. We owe you one. :grog: )

    Some people just can't face the consequences of their actions and then there is some who just like to watch the world burn. It might be one or the other unless... It's both.

    For those who supect margen: remember a spammer was on that did every the current bot has done before margen was downgraded to banned
