if personal attacks were to be grounds even for suspension then half this boards members should have been suspended at some point or another. Luckily, we dont have mods that are *that* narrowsighted.<

Obviously, the AIDS comment was a little less tasteful, but the end result of hoping they die would be the same.<

If a banned person comes back with a different account, behaves him/herself, and convinces you that he/she is a different person for any serious length of time... I'd say the ban served its purpose. It neutralized a disruptive force on the boards. To continue persecuting the offending person once his new identity is discovered is unnecessary. It seems to me that we're concentrating too much here on punishing people for old sins, when the original problem that led to the ban really has been dealt with.<

To re-ban anyone under these circumstances is punitive, immature and heavy-handed. I won't pretend I like what the poster in this case usually has to say, but I feel obligated to defend his right to say it. Tranthas Stormwalker<

Outside of a VERY select few people, I think everyone on these boards has acted in a punitive, immature and heavy-handed way to someone. I know mods say it was much more than the AIDS comment that got xSkyscrasherx banned in the first place, but they also have to understand that it's tough for us Lay-people to understand. I know they see the behind the scenes shit where we don't. I just personally feel that some of the boisterous, over-the-top, assinine comments made by some people who are left free and open to continue posting are due to their status as former members of the 13337 UbEr clique of Lanys, and that reason alone has kept their accounts active. I know I am a jackass posting, but I don't discriminate or make underhanded comments in doing so. Whether you're Tarot, Leo, Xian, or Joe Schmo poster I will make my stupid comments. Some who get banned offend a "regular' poster and I think that is a HUGE contribution to the reason they get banned. <
>
<
>
Judging by the call by a lot on this thread asking why, even though he was previously banned, hsraffety is now getting re-banned, I would say as a "Community" we deserve reason outside of "he's just a jackass still" on why he was re-banned. Shit, I knew JackiiiOryx was him, but I couldn't tell by his posts he was still him. Someone with an "in" with thye mobs mjyst have made a big fucking stink. We are one of the most lax communities I have ever seen. There are some people on these boards, and I have actually mentioned them ON THOS THREAD, who have consistantly for 5 years put people down, threatened with hopes of death/suicide/whatever, who don't even get blinked at. I don't think THEY should get banned, but I do think judging by that, neither should the person in question now. <

IIRC, there was once a kid who frequented these boards who was not "special" yet still rode the short bus for some reason and was probably teased IRL over it. Upon seeing Nerro's sig, he becomes upset and his mother complains to the mods rather than actually being a parent and explaining why he should take no offense. The sig was ordered removed even after community opinion supported keeping it since it was far from the worst thing ever allowed to be posted on this forum at that time.<

Post subject:  Re: Hi, me again.

Uhgree, the kid didn't visit the forums, the mom did. And she wasn't even a "known contributer," she was some lurker who never posted on the boards. If it had been Austriana or some other person who actually was an asset to the boards, the complaint may have had some merit. But the fact was, it was some no-name who contributed nothing to the boards, yet seemingly had more "power" than the voice of the community. The community, almost as a whole, thought the treatment of Nerro and his sig was pretty retarded, yet the panic button was hit, immeditately followed by the proverbial shit hitting the fan. I believe the "sig mod" at the time, Vanamar, was behind the banning (although I am sure the mods will all say it was a group decision). It's the past, but it is still one of those "what the fuck were they thinking" moments.<

As a side note, even when I was the sig mod, I didn't really care about Nerro's sig. I thought it was kinda funny personally, but I could see how the parent of a "special" child could be offended.<

99% of the "spammers" are globally banned, but I agree that a mass un-banning should be in order. XskycrasherX/hsraffety whatever and I disagree on most threads, but I think he has been on a good enough behavior since coming back, and unless someone with pull has a personal vendetta, the re-banning was ludicrous. <i></i>

I also agree that banning hsraffety is kinda silly, and I agree that unbanning pretty much everyone aside from the spammers would be fine with me. There are lots of us here on the right of the fence on these boards get away with far more than the little shit hsraffety said. I'm not saying all of us should be banned; I'm saying the others shouldn't be.<

The point is he was banned previously for, from what I remember, a very damn good reason (although it was when the forum was a bit more moderated).<

<

I don't give a shit if he called me a cunt or bitch or you fuckinghoebagsworthwannabecrybabywhinyarsebitchwtfever. I hit him back because I was being a pissy bitch. I'm sure I deserved a name or two and I used his lack of originality in calling me a cunt to vent some pent up bitchiness. /shrug<

<

I don't care… I don't think he should or anyone should be banned for that. <

<

BUT that isn't why he is banned atm. He was banned for being a retarded worthless piece of shit that didn't know the difference between a flame and a personal attack. Even then he wasn’t banned until he pushed it very very far just because he was told not to. Now he is rebanned because he was banned before not because he said a few naughty things this time. He got caught posting where he wasn't suppose to and now he is paying for his stupidity..<

Speaking as someone who has earned the ban-hammer in the past and never actually gotten it, I'm glad there are stricter standards now. There seems to be mixed opinion about how evenly the standards are applied, but I won't weigh in there since I'm here like four times a year.

Post subject:  Re: Petition Calling for the Banning of hsraffety

All we really need here for forum conduct is the Don't Be A Dick Rule (which states: "Don't be a dick"). The standards I referred to are of resolve, really -- you can't get unbanned just by sweet-talking one moderator, and that's a good thing. Law doesn't carry the proper force if potential criminals know they can just apologize and leave jail.

Every forum brings out a dick or two (re. MMO section). Who decides who's a dick or not? Is it by (un)popular vote? So whoever the dominant clique is gets to ban whoever speaks against them? I think we went through this phase already a while back.
