O Fortuna PLS was just banned by Harem. That account was created on 2012-08-22 18:24:02 and had 17 posts. Reason: yeah, bye Ah good to see my report button help, dude was making no sense at all in the Stephano signs with EG thread. Apparently you can't make $8k a month, win big tournaments, and have self respect all at the same time according to him. | ||

When we make a post and then edit it 10 seconds later, is there anyway the Mods can go back and view the original? Sometimes I post things that might not entirely "meet the spirit" of the TL commandments and then will edit it out right after posting it  | ||

but the rest of the blues are just people who were rewarded for their excellent work and can't actually take any mod action on their own. | ||

Not really. If I was a mod and I saw a 9-times edited one-liner, I would get mightily suspicious. >_> | ||

I think it will claim a couple of more bans before likely ending up closed. Case in point this guy below. On September 08 2012 21:48 EvE-1988 wrote: America want to show how big their penis is User was banned for this post. This other guy got several troll posts of this variety before getting caught in some other thread it seems. On September 09 2012 01:01 Pro gamer registerin wrote: Ofcourse! I studied at Fox News college . what the hell is "Singapore" anyway? Pro gamer registerin was just banned by Antoine. That account was created on 2012-08-22 02:02:03 and had 15 posts. Reason: stick to 1 account please | ||

His post history, mod history and the specifics of previous warnings play a role. Rather than make the "other people were doing it" argument report those other people. You should realize that when you ban people who don't seem to have broken any rules it has a chilling effect on other posters. People can't understand why the ban was imposed so they think that they might also get a ban if a mod disagrees with their opinion. Thoughtful people who have unpopular opinions just don't participate, and you're left with a much less interesting discussion. I am not big on reporting people since I think the best way to get rid of bad posters is just not respond to them (all they really want is attention so if they don't get it they'll leave on their own). But I'll give it a try. | ||

Well then the follow up question is do you ever ban anyone for something they said that was edited out right after it was posted? | ||

The recent good posts from conservatives on the issue of voter conesensus on abortion are proof in the pudding. Are you really confused as to why he was banned? | ||

Reason: I'd like you to be a little bit more sensitive about Combat-Ex fucking my girlfriend in the future. Epic. | ||

Obviously there are posts which would be so bad that I'd just not want to share a site with the poster anymore but as a rule editing it out will protect you. | ||

But I'll give it a try. It's actually quite difficult to get banned without first earning a considerable mod history. There's no reason to be scared of a ban, if you start fucking up you'll get a gentle reminder to guide you on your way. | ||
