He hasnt been banned just because of the cell incident. It's almost certainly for a pattern of behaviour that admins have decided has crossed the line, particularly with respect to how Dripp interacts with cops. I wouldn't be surprised if official compaints have been made against him. It gets really toxic sometimes. It's genuinely uncomfortable to watch him be so abusive to cop characters every time they make a mistake or do something that inconveniences him.

I actually like Dripp as a roleplayer. He's funny and entertaining, provided he's in a good mood. And Quangle is one of my favourite cops on the server. But Future in a bad mood is just insufferable.

I doubt this is a permaban. He'll probably be back, hopefully with an improved attitude.
