IsntLifeFunny Posted September 16, 2020 Report Share Posted September 16, 2020 (edited) This is really simple. They attacked posters and or said racist shit. TGLC was probably the most extreme liberal on this board, full bore Sanders bro. He got banned after repeated attempts to tell him to stop threatening posters, myself included on both sides of that equation. The same standard was applied evenly to the other three. It had absolutely nothing to do with politics. Sox was the best poster of the four, but he was warned and then stepped way over the threshold of what he was warned about. We are a sick and depraved group with a very simple standard: Do not openly threaten posters and don’t say overtly racist shit. It’s really fucking simple.

You know those people were racist. You know they posted racist things. You said as much. That you are still upset by my reaction to your posts isn't a credible complaint about these bans. I defended you a lot over the years when a lot of posters had some not so nice things to say about you. Publicly and privately. You can think I’m lying. But part of you knows I’m not. Was clearly worth it. Nothing cheeky or clever or overly scathing. You’re just a dick. And I feel dumb for thinking we were friends.

Maybe if there was a way for people who don't venture into the politics forum to see why folks were banned. As I mentioned, I have no idea as I never go in there. I know some boards I visit still list the board member and their posts, but their name is grayed out, says "banned," and also with a brief explanation as to why. And btw...no, I don't believe I've ever made a cruel or sexist joke here, thank you Dude, scientists could probe your DNA for years and not find one singular whisper of a cruel or sexist joke. You're a man-sized jar of Jet-Puffed marshmallow cream. Stranger, IsntLifeFunny, and Jonboy 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, it's what started the thread in the first place. @Number9 asking what happened to Sox. I'm saying I feel like that should be made visible on the board in some form so we don't have situations where people are wondering what happened to a certain poster. They could just go to their profile and see "Oh, dude was banned for threatening another poster. I get it." and move on instead of wondering or having to make a thread. I did also mention warning them and making it obvious as to what's against the rules. Sounds like that was already handled in the politics forum, so fair enough. Going back to this, I can see where you are coming from. The thing is it’s never happened as far as I know outright in the football forum, only in the political forum. The warning was made there across several threads to an eventual point Jamal pinned and locked a thread with a simple warning to the entire board. After that thread Jake, Sox, and RT continued to push the limit. Jamal unlocked the thread and repeated the warning. They pushed again and were banned. I guess I say all of this to note I don’t want that warning to push into the football forum. It is fine like it is and I don’t want the two to bleed into one another. The problem was already handled. I do think there could be a way to show others when they click on their account that they were banned with maybe a repeat warning or short explanation. rns90, Starkiller, abenjami, and 2 others 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BudsOilers Posted September 16, 2020 Report Share Posted September 16, 2020 This is the thread in question. Suggest everyone reading here to go back and read it. It goes back to what a few have mentioned here - what's offensive to some may not be anything to others and that doesn't mean that the non-offended are racist. I had my share of run-ins with Soxcat but it's a pretty weak excuse to ban him for what he said (in response mind you to a direct question on the term by another poster), unless you have incredibly thin skin as a moderator.....The fact that said moderator and poster disliked each other immensely didn't necessarily reinforce the objectivity involved.

I know that might be hard to understand as a young, white man who has increasingly adopted that slighted mindset but the sooner you recognize it, the sooner you can reconcile where your heart and the views you express and support probably don't align.

There's plenty of material to be discussed in the non-political off-topic forum here. New Mandalorian season on its way, a "nature" thread about animals ripping each other apart, The Boys 2nd season, etc. Hell, post about coffee you like or whether you like a hairy pussy or clean shaven. There are plenty of things under the sun to talk about other than god damned cock sucking motherfucking politics. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
