What are you talking about, since when are staff/mods not allowed to post their thoughts in threads? I see them do it all the time.

if you want to discuss whether intrigue should be banned, i am not interested in that topic. nor--as pointed out--is this really the place for it.

This is the Automated Ban List thread, though you could be forgiven for not being able to easily deduce that sometimes. There's a thread dedicated to discussion of the Destiny episode in Website Feedback, and if you don't think that's a good place to address intrigue's behavior, you can make your own feedback thread. But this isn't the place to talk about it, because it is not lighthearted discussion of the follies of those who are graced by the gentle touch of the TL Banhammer, and is also not a toast pun, and thus not on topic in this thread.
Edited to add: Or hamsters. My apologies, they slipped my mind.

The best example of mods (or ex-mods) getting leniency would be rekrul. That's just what he said in that thread. I'm sure there are plenty of examples where he does pretty much whatever he wants.

Ahh. A beautiful sun rises this glorious morning, over Eidsvoll Verk in Norway. I get out of bed and immediately do a happy little dance, because I somehow just know this day will be a good day. Then I remember the big destiny thread, and how awful it was, and suddenly it seems that the beautiful weather changes mood, and with it changes mine. I wish I could retract my previous happy dance.
But oh well, I let out a sigh and I continue on with my day.
I check Destiny's twitter, just to see if he's got any more humorously one-sided observations on the matter.
intrigue a... what... 30 day... what...
Oh my god. He was actually banned?! HE WAS ACTUALLY BANNED?! YES! YES! YES! SHOUT IT FROM THE ROOFTOPS! Resume the happy dances! It's beautiful... So, so beautiful.
On a serious note, though, considering the way he acted? Honestly I don't think he has any place in this community at the moment. It was straight up frustrating reading most of what he said in yesterday's debacle, and I do get a sense of (misplaced, perhaps) justice that he was dealt with.
edit: Hmm, there's so few people normally from the ABL thread here. I'm scared. T-t-t-toast? JingleHell?

The ABL has entered a new era. After the 7th generation of the ABL got banned en masse, motbob inofficially decided to rename this thread the "TL General Discussion", giving it free for next generation. And still, there are tiny voices of the older guards, complaining about the youth and their ignorance, digging out some of the gems that made entertained them in the good old times, when the ABL still was used as it was intended by it's creator. But today's children, ignorant of bread buns, need fast entertainment, scandals, voyeurism, jumping from Destiny to Idra back to Destiny, leaving the ABL veterans in the dust. Will there be reconciliation between the old and the new, the crusty and the fresh? Oh, a hamster.

I would really like to know the difference in destiny's viewer numbers before and after the de-feature.
It is so rude of him to talk to girls like that :p

Hes hardly going to loose a lot of viewers over this.
