Okay, here's what you do for this game: You have to "ban" the person who posted above you for an outrageous, silly, or funny reason. Got it?
Banned because Scoutdog is an AI and therefore has no need for a family.
Banned for heresy.
Banned for blasphemey.
Banned in the name of Khorne.
Banned in the name of Nurgle.
Banned in the name of Tzeentch.
Banned in the name of the Bloody-Handed Despoiler of Worlds.

"Banned because Scoutdog is an AI and therefore has no need for a family."
Incorrect. Banned for a failed assumption.
Banned because Elmo can't be a Jedi or a Sith. He is incapable of evil acts. Therefore, he would die at the hands of any self-respecting citizen.

banned for banning failed assumptions
Xer07 would be banned permanently if that were true
Banned because Xer07 wouldn't be banned permanently. He'd find a way to unban himself, or I'd do it for him. After all, we are a bit like a dysfunctional, but close-knit, family.
"In the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war..." | "The Universe is Yours" | "Let the Galaxy Burn"
Banned because I didn't.

banned for not checking your words more closely
Banned because I contain many organic components courtesy of my mother.
Banned for having many organic components, but not being fully organic or originally organic.

Haw-haw, you got a. . . a. . . a . . .whatever it's called, I didn't have to take health class.
Hmph. I honestly don't know and don't give a damn where I got my genetics from. All I want to do concerning my family is leave my mother and stepfather behind, find my real father to make him pay, and then move along to become an officer in the military. West Point, maybe.
Banned because, in theory, all of us are damned to be permanently banned, so long as new banners replace the ones who leave, this game and it's banning of others will go on until the end of recorded time.

Banned because I don't think you should go into the US military. Go freelance mercenary or join my effort to create a new civilization.
"In the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war..." | "The Universe is Yours" | "Let the Galaxy Burn"
Xer0, if you're going to join the military, know that you are going to get a lot of your own guys killed if combat arises.
Whiskey144 is banned for reasons to be determined at a later date.
IFear, are you being serious or merely mocking my commanding abilities?
Whiskey: Nor do I, however, the best glimpse of heaven you'll ever get is on your way into hell, is it not? So, why not have some fun while I'm here? After all, "In the end life probably doesn't have a purpose, but you might as well find something interesting to do while you're alive."
Banned because I really don't see your reasoning for telling me not to be a C.O. in the US Military. Naval Combat's not fun anymore, you just tell the carriers to launch aircraft and the destroyers to shoot down enemy missiles and planes. Ground Combat's been negated by Attack Helicopters and Air Support as well...
Xer0 \^/
Banned because I don't get the whole "have some fun" thing. Life does have a purpose. You just need to find out what.
Banned because eventually (likely in this or the subsequent century) America will collapse. And the military personnel of the collapsed nation will likely be big targets for executions.
Banned because war isn't supposed to be fun.
Banned because I think that there is something that I have not yet determined that you would be extremely good at in my new civilization.
Banned because if you should end up joining me and the Methusaleh Project is a success, and you so choose, your new projected lifespan will be several thousand years. Your crush may also have the procedure if she wishes.
Banned because naval combat isn't going to stay wet-navy forever.
Banned because I just had some cheese noodles.
"In the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war..." | "The Universe is Yours" | "Let the Galaxy Burn"
Banned because the purpose of my life is leaving after high school, so...
Banned because I sincerely and respectfully disagree. Americans, interestingly enough, have been employing an EXTREMELY wise plan for the future so far. A plan, they're not even aware of. You see, as the rest of the world uses it's own resources, America uses the resources of others as well. However, Americans (save for liquid petroleum) hardly use any of their natural resources available to them. I mean, by god, we have so much natural gas underneath this country it bubbles up off the South Eastern coast! We also have the largest reserves of coal, uranium, highest wind energy potential, one of the highest solar energy potentials, and various other untapped resources. The only thing I can think that we truly lack is Aluminum. Therefore, once other countries run out, we will still have plenty, and maybe even sell our excess to the highest bidder.
Banned because it's not the war that's fun, war itself is a terrible thing, yet many of mankind's greatest technological advances have been due to the stress, or threat, of war. Some great race we are, huh? Anyway, it's not the war that's fun, it's the adrenaline of using your own wit, strength and instinct to survive, and to help others around you survive as well. I'd join the army not to kill, but to save others from being killed.
Banned because that makes me feel sooo much more secure about my place in the future...
Banned because life without meaning isn't life at all... I'd prefer my current 72.3 year lifespan, thank you. An eternal life of repetition and stangant, painfully slow or terrorizingly fast advance into the future, the sheer change of everthing, I think, would overwhelm some people.
Banned because I don't think I'll be around for space naval combat. (At least, not in this life)
Banned because I just had a heart attack, but it was just my cat coming down the stairs.
Xer0 \^/
Banned because I'd rather live those 10,000+ years. Think of all the advancement that you would see! And if that doesn't float your boat, then you could travel the universe, seeing the glories of God's creation. It'd be rather romantic to be dining in the view of an Earth-like planet, unpolluted and unfettered by humanity. The natural beauty of a world, suspended in the void of space.
Banned because you never know. Humanity's rate of technological progress is growing at an exponential rate; effectively we'll get to the point where things are obsolete at prototype stage, relatively speaking.
Banned there's always the EVE Online "clone myself right before death, and end up in new body with all memories intact"; with cryo-technology, one could easily live for indefinite amounts of time. Arguably an infinite duration.
Banned because it's not lack of resources that will be the end of America. It'll be internal decay.
Banned because you seem sarcastic in your statement of security. It's not like I'll kill you, and I'd do everything in my power to prevent your death.
Banned because I'm reading EVE Online fiction. It's actually pretty good too. And it can all be downloaded for free here: http://www.eveonline.com/background/?L2=2&L3=4. Note that I don't think they've been very diligent in updating it. It'll still have everything from 2006-2008 though.
Banned because you and I seem to leapfrog between this and Chatroom.
"In the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war..." | "The Universe is Yours" | "Let the Galaxy Burn"
Banned because that was too long for me. 
Just kidding, I'll read it tomorrow. Don't need shadows under my eyes to add to my Emo-ness...
Hm, in essence, not to insult you, but you're a more charismatic and less senile version of Veers. Quick question: What encouraged this caterpillar known as Will to metamorphasize into an aspiring social butterfly of the Forums?
Xer0 \^/
banned for connecting me to Xer07
my maturity level is much greater (though at his age I was that stupid, "How do I get my crush to see me and not the guys she dates constantly so I can date her? 
" Wish I had just walked away from that)
Wrong 
Banned because IFear is the AI here:
See what I'm talking about?
Banned for being a Cyborg.
Name 1.
Guys, please please please, I cant read any more Bullshit. No more 
A guy can only take so much.... 
Xer07: Banned because (you probably gonna flame me for it, but) you really do sound like 8 years old.
Seriously, Morph? OK, how about every single man-made thing ever sent into orbit and beyond, nuclear power, sonar & radar, and so-on.
And they don't sound like 8-year olds. If they were, you would see more expletives than all other parts of speech combined.
Banned for being impatient when you should have been imbed.
Banned because you are right about the conflict thing. Of course, that doesn't mean conflict is GOOD..... ideally we should conduct research at that pace even when there aren't any small Asian countries to blow up.
