Space Station 13, running into departures/escape after singularity was released and letting off 5-6 EMP grenades, 3 smoke grenades, and an incendiary grenade. It was an RP-rev round, and some silly engi screwed it over by leaving the particle accelerator at 2 strength. So, everyone went into escape, and in a final act as head rev proceeded to set off all the bombs, killing 12 people including myself -- 3 of which head revolutionaries, 3 of which heads of staff, the rest crew members.
I got a week ban for it. It was blissfully stupid and probably the most hilarious non-changeling thing I've done although I doubt I'll be trying that again, like, ever.
I have only been banned once in my life on the forum for a Kickstarter-backed project, Sui Generis.
It was maybe a year ago. I pointed out that the developers weren't doing a good job communicating with the community and that slow updates plus lack of communication don't make it easy to make the decision to back them (I wanted to back them but this put me off so I didn't). Other forum members pushed back, saying that they have complete faith in the developers and they don't need no filthy communication because it detracts the developers from developing the game. A flamewar ensued, I stood by my point (as I see it, communication is more a matter of priorities than a matter of time) and got banned for "insulting the developers".
I wanted to re-read that thread now to make an opinion whether I was out of line but they deleted all my posts.
As a side note: that game is developed by a bigger team, the updates are much slower than RimWorld, and somehow Tynan, being the lone developer, has managed to write 4000 posts on this forum and communicate with us in multiple other ways. I wish all indies were like that.
I wrote something really off topic and trolly involving santa claus in Lordi forums somewhere between 2002 and 2004?
I can't remember what it was for the life of me. And I'm really glad about that =P
I've grown up since then! thank god! Not much, mind you! but enough
But daayum I was SUCH a rebel! uunf! yeah! *Grunt* *flex*
For saving the lives of people trying to suicide.
DF (Not Dwarf Fortress) helping other players (In game items/Out of game) was frowned upon by the moderators so I was perma banned like 70-74+ times for trying to save people's lives. I'm still around, but things have calmed down a bit. I just hope that I was able to be a safety net for everyone. I stayed up for up to 72 hours at a time just consoling suicidal teens online and at my school.
I did meet my Girl Friend during my "Crusade"/"White Knighting" Adventures. Though we're having a little of a rough patch I hope things will work out in the end.
And during one of my recent bans I found Rimworld's forums and thought that I might as well chill here xD.
I won't tell my life story here...Just yet :3!

I was also banned from Yahoo for posting a troll question. I was still getting Best Answer for like 2-3 years later LOL.

Go criticize some indie company's work on steam, you know the kind that give the indie community the bad name? Go seek them out if you want someone to hate you. :)
I was banned from a minecraft server for saying "I dont care" to the host, what a puff
I was once in a gigantic factions group(minecraft factions) and they were voting for leader, Of course they put up all the most experienced people in the faction. So i'm a new guy, and i want to put on the ballet. I ended up starting a huge flame war that ended with half the group leaving, and 1/4th of it being removed by the selfish 'admins'. Now that i look back at it, i'm glad that i'm no longer part of it. (Worth noting, All i wanted was to be on the ballet, NOT to tear the group apart)

Youtubers such as Gamechap, Yogscast main, TotalBiscuit etc have gone through phases where a sudden increase in troll activity has meant they need to close off the comments to all. Probably nothing you, yourself has said. :)
