This is one of those times I wish we had “Like” buttons.

Mmmm, it seems to be more like a “Banned Aid” type of thing.

\*There’s a world outside your window, and it’s a world of dread and fear  
Where the only water flowing is the bitter sting of tears…

\*ETA: _…Well, Thank God tonight it’s them, instead of you!_

Shall we fight each other for the honor of your friendship? You know, Battle of the BANNEDs style?  
But seriously, if you defriend everyone who isn’t already banned, how will you get new banned friends? Hope they message you quick before the banhammer falls?

I was hoping this thread was about real-life friends who were banned. Perhaps from certain establishments, or the company of one’s spouse or other family member.

If it helps, I have that under my screen name on about 10 sites.

Well then add me as soon as possible before you get banned here and I miss the chance to add you!

Wouldn’t that suck if you de-friended someone who then got banned?
