Shadowbane
Another MMORPG, only this one appeals to the darker, or wannabe goth kids or people.

Every Shadowbane server is named after an emotion of strife.

Shadowbane
A horribly confusing game with no real "path" to follow while training. It's hard to stick to after playing past the first town.

I liked Shadowbane until I got out of the first town.

Shadowban
Banning a user from a web forum in such a way that the banned user is unaware of the ban. Usually takes the form of showing that user's posts/profile/etc. only to that user; other users never see them. Considered underhanded chicken-shit behavior.

Fark has turned into a bunch of shadowbanning pricks.

Shadowban
Being banned from a social media platform, such as Instagram, in a way that you're content is invisible to everyone else, and therefore you barely get any views or likes. This is because they're too pussy to let you know you're being banned.
It usually happens for no reason at all and there's nothing you can do about it except wait for a couple of days.

Goddamn it I can't believe I got shadowbanned on Instagram! What a bunch of pussies. Remove the shadowban!!

Shadowbane
MMORPG with an amazing PvP system, completely dominating every other MMO on the market. Ruined by shoddy programming and terrible customer support. If you decide to play then prepare to weep.

I had fun playing Shadowbane until I crashed 3 times in 10 minutes.

Shadowban
A method of banning users where their posts are visible only to them. Created to prevent spammers, trolls, and flamers from realizing they have been banned and creating new accounts.

Considered underhanded chicken-shit behavior by trolls who hate being trolled.

I’ve been posting right-wing crap all over the forum, but no one is biting. I think I’ve been shadowbanned.

Shadowban
A Shadowban is an excuse trolls and sad people use to justify why no one bothers to read, reply or like the content that they post online. They assume that it must be because their content is hidden from public view, in fact they're just boring.

I know for sure I've been shadowbanned because hardly anyone comments or likes my posts on Twitter. It's definitely a shadowban conspiracy because I know, I'm like, genius, and everyone would be amazed by my super-radical views.

Shadowban
In PC or Console gaming, this is when those who are caught cheating, hacking, or modding, are still allowed to play the game, but are placed on servers that only contain other cheaters, hackers, and/or modders. An example of a developer using this practice would be the Dark Souls Franchise.

I modded my weapon to do extra damage in Dark Souls, I got caught and now I've been shadowbanned.
