				We've been busy with the Tokyo Game Show and haven't been able to mind the shop as closely. Good time to remind everyone of our commenting policies! Before commenting read this post right <a href="http://lifehacker.com/software/top/special-lifehackers-guide-to-weblog-comments-126654.php">here</a>. Tonight, we'll be moving silently and swiftly, hammering here, hammering there, hammering everywhere. The best part? We're taking requests. Send them to tips with a "Whack-a-Troll" subject line. Sleep soundly all. We'll be back tomorrow lighter, faster and, oh yes, better.				<a href="http://kotaku.com/5063513/if-you-comment-read-this-dammit" title="Click here to read more about If You Comment, Read This.

				Hooray! Our favorite Kotakuday, Ban Monday, has finally arrived!! While we don't have any problem banning on regular days, we turn up the Ban Hammer sensitivity to MAXIMUM on Ban Monday. For those who don't know, here's how it's gonna go down: Send us the commenter page to commentsATkotakuDOTcom for anyone who should get the axe, err, hammer. You can put in your request at commentsATkotakuDOTcom. No ban gloating. Gloating leads to Ban Hammer backfire, which could cause you to get the boot. And that would be very embarrassing. We'll be back to normal on Tuesday, lighter, faster and better. Hope to see you on the other side.				<a href="http://kotaku.com/5052881/ban-monday-begins" title="Click here to read more about Ban Monday Begins!">More&nbsp;&raquo;</a>

				 Yes, yes. It's that time again. Time to ruthlessly ban people! That's right, next Monday (Feb. 25th) is everyone's favorite Kotakuday, Ban Monday. While we adore the commenters who <i>add</i> something to the comment section, we abhor the ones who detract from it and spam it with their drivel. We ban here at Kotaku. Ban like crazy. So please do not confuse our comment sections with your run-of-the-mill forum, boards, blah blah. We're not your buddies! We're very bitter and mean!! For those who don't know, here's how it's gonna go down: Send us the commenter page for anyone that should get the axe. If we agree (even slightly), we'll swing. And swing hard. Though! No ban gloating. Gloating leads to Ban Hammer backfire, which could cause you to get the boot. Tuesday we'll be back better, lighter, strong and faster. Onward!				<a href="http://kotaku.com/358382/be-prepared-the-blood-letting-is-coming" title="Click here to read more about Be Prepared, The Blood Letting Is Coming">More&nbsp;&raquo;</a>

We'll be switching out the Ban Hammer for the <a href="http://images.elfwood.com/art/b/i/bitterashes2/dagger_set.jpg.rZd.48182.jpg">Ban Dagger</a>. So many to choose from!

				 For those of you ready to clean house, have we got a day for you! Today is our favorite Kotakuday, Ban Monday. Our willingness to ban increases twenty-fold as Witzbold helps clean up and clean out. We want to keep the comments section readable (AKA thin the herd), and we want you to help. Here's how it works: Send tipsATkotaku.com commenter pages for anyone you think should get the boot. Our ban threshold is going to be way lower (hello fanboy trolls!). Nothing is definite, but ban requests from longtime commenters will be given great authority with the hammer. So be sure to include your own commenting profile! Ban Monday ends in exactly 24 hours. Tuesday's comment section will be lighter, faster, better. Oh yes. 				<a href="http://kotaku.com/344320/hold-me-tight-ban-monday-begins" title="Click here to read more about Hold Me Tight, Ban Monday Begins">More&nbsp;&raquo;</a>

				 The blood letting is coming. And it's going to be <i>bad</i>. Next Monday is, you guessed it, Ban Monday. It's our favorite Kotakuday! While we do welcome the new folks, we also want to warn them. We ban here at Kotaku. Ban like crazy. Ku-razy. So please do not confuse our comment section with your run-of-the-mill forum, boards, blah blah.

				 It has already started. Today is, yep, Ban Monday. What is Ban Monday? Besides our favorite Kotakuday, it's an opportunity for commenters to attack each other with pitchforks and knives. In short: You can vote each other off the island! Our Ban Hammer sensitivity has been turned up to max, and we'll be smashing all damn day long. Yes, the streets of Kotakuland will run hot pink and baby shit green! 				<a href="http://kotaku.com/331767/so-the-purge-begins" title="Click here to read more about So, The Purge Begins...">More&nbsp;&raquo;</a>

				 Just a heads up! Next Monday is... You guessed it, Ban Monday. While we do welcome the new folks, we also want to warn them. We ban here at Kotaku. Ban like crazy. So please do not confuse our comment sections with your run-of-the-mill forum, boards, blah blah. We are always open to ban submissions, but next Monday the ban sensitivity on the Hammer will be turned up max. So type up your list of those you want out, send along their commenter page, the reason you want them banned and your own commenter page. The streets of Kotakuland will run hot pink and baby shit green! 				<a href="http://kotaku.com/331566/cant-wait-for-next-monday" title="Click here to read more about Can't Wait for Next Monday!">More&nbsp;&raquo;</a>

				 For those of you ready to clean house, have we got a day for you! Today is our favorite Kotakuday, Ban Monday. Our willingness to ban increases ten-fold as we clean up and clean out. We want to keep the comments section readable (AKA thin the herd), and we want you to help. Here's how it works: Send tipsATkotaku.com commenter pages for anyone you think should get the boot. Our ban threshold is going to be way lower (hello fanboy trolls!). Nothing is definite, but ban requests from longtime commenters will be given great authority with the hammer. So be sure to include your own commenting profile! Ban Monday ends in exactly 24 hours. Tuesday's comment section will be lighter, faster, better. Onwards!				<a href="http://kotaku.com/324061/today-is-ban-monday" title="Click here to read more about Today is Ban Monday">More&nbsp;&raquo;</a>

				 Heads up, today is our favorite Kotakuday, Ban Monday. We LOVE Ban Mondays! While our hot line is open to ban recommendations at all times, we turn up the ban sensitivity on the Ban Hammer for this special monday. Here's how it works: Send us the commenter page for anyone that should get the boot. If we agree (even slightly), we'll swing. And swing hard. Though! No ban gloating. Gloating leads to Ban Hammer backfire, which could cause you to get the boot. Tuesday we'll be back better, lighter, strong and faster. Know that today is a Surprise Ban Monday, so shhhhhhh. Don't tell the other commenters &mdash; especially, those you want gone. 				<a href="http://kotaku.com/313317/surprise-ban-monday" title="Click here to read more about Surprise Ban Monday!">More&nbsp;&raquo;</a>
