It's not that surprising since it's easily the strongest top to bottom show of the franchise. That's right, I said it.
This is correct. And definitely the series that best stands the test of time.

You've never got banned? MOD pet.
Absolutely, a lot of people (myself included) didn't give it the love it deserved when it was first on. I'm watching it all the way through for the first time on Netflix right now. Just started Season 5 and loving it!

I did that myself a year or so back - OK, I cheated, I started at the end of Season 2 (since I had seen most of the earlier ones and they weren't generally as good as the later ones anyway) and I didn't watch all the episodes, just the higher rated ones and the ones key to the overarching plot. I was impressed, had no idea the series was that good - the characters are way more realistic and deeper than in most other Trek shows, setting much darker. And I think they probably had the best space battles of any show ever. Almost as good as BSG, you could tell they were done by the same people.
I need to finish my watchthrough. I sort of lost track of it right as the dominion war was beginning.
Ooh - Mass Effect or KOTOR?
(I don't play a ton of video games, mostly just these titles and a very small handful of others - but the answer is Mass Effect.)
AKA the worst possible time to stop watching the show?
Ooh - Mass Effect or KOTOR?
Yeah, probably. Just got busy with stuff and didnt get back into it.
Great question! Infractions (points) are more of a warning system. It's mostly just an easy way for us to shoot a user a "hey, this probably isn't cool" message that has a record (unlike when we just do a normal PM). We don't have a formal "X infractions/points = X days of ban" policy - mostly we just keep an eye out. If someone is on a tear and doesn't respond well to warnings, we usually do a temp ban.
So, honestly, infractions aren't the worst thing in the world - it's someone wanting to give you a head's up that something was seen as inappropriate without having to go to a temp ban or something.
Never played any of the Mass Effect games but I dumped a lot of time in college into KOTOR I and II
Tough one. I'll go with mass effect. Still need to play 3.
KOTOR2 almost kills it though, hated that rushed ending.
Do all mods use this policy? Similarly, do mods have a lower tolerance for comments criticizing ISU student-athletes? I got banned for a week during the K-State game because I complained about our quarterbacks' (in)ability to complete passes; I used an adjective that means "without value", but I didn't think I made any personal attacks or did anything that wasn't similar to other posters' frustrations that day. About the only reason I could think of was that mods have a zero-tolerance policy when it comes to criticizing student-athletes by name.
I was hoping for a five minute increment so I could say I got banned and be in the cool kids club
There does tend to be a lower tolerance on game-days. The sheer volume of posts on those days is insane, and the negative posts tend to cause a lot bigger issues, so we have to be sort of harder-nosed. (Like in the Cave right before the election.)
