That would be the summation of that term for all consecutive integers from 1 to infinity. I'm terrible at math too though no worries :S I really like KadaverBB though  I think he's really nice, and he even took the snarky jabs about math really well. There are perfectly reasonable explanations for those miscues, but people still insisted on ganging up and posting annoying, unfunny (to me .__.) stuff about how he can't do math and whatnot. He's so nice lol. He's also doing a great job as a mod I think :3@Coke below: Oh the emoticons? Yeah I tend to use a crapton of emoticons in general. With regard to Kadaver, I just think he's a cool dude. I don't always agree with moderaters' rationale/attitudes/actual bans, but Kadaver seems really laid-back and still does his job well. Just fun to talk to. I will not give any sentiment on Bisu himself because that would be rendering myself liable to getting banned, come fpl | ||

The snarky math jabs are totally fine, getting made fun of is part of the job. They happened not because I am too stupid to count, but because I was sooooooooo careful with my bans, it's incredible. I literally triple-checked, quadruple-checked everything because I didn't want to mess anything up. I especially didn't want to ban anyone by mistake or something. So I had like 25 tabs open (don't know how that happened) and one time I was even writing the same ban in 2 different windows lol. So yeah, it took me quite a while to get anything done, so while I was doing it these quys squeezed in another post and I facepalmed  (The last ban was seriously a missclick, I wanted to give him a week :D) No big deal though, it was fun. Got to be extra careful with my "math" now because my street-cred is already at -25. I am going to get you guys back though.... | ||

Before this current ban though there was a single 2 day ban in November and a 2 week back in January (mod history that old with such a long break in between can generally be ignored). He had another 2 week in November 2011 which was extended after he tried to dodge it. Basically negligible mod history since his ban last January and yet continual delusions that he is being banned or in some other way oppressed or silenced. More on it here. + Show Spoiler + On November 15 2012 14:11 jdseemoreglass wrote: I'm pretty sure a number of the bans I have gotten are directly related to the grudge some people have held due to a website feedback thread I made regarding double standards. I would actually advise anyone against giving their honest feedback about moderation on this site. I've seen other people receive harsher moderation too after making threads in website feedback. That's just my honest opinion, you can tell me I am wrong, but I see what people get away with around here and the things I have been banned for, and they are not consistent to say the least. In this post you state unambiguously that one or more moderators has a grudge against you and that they have been moderating you more harshly because of it. You add that you believe that the cause of this grudge is that you challenged moderation. My initial response to this claim was to ask who it is you feel is doing this as I couldn't work it out from a list of mod actions against you On November 15 2012 14:16 KwarK wrote: I took a look at your mod history. You haven't gotten a serious ban in almost a year and there is no real pattern regarding moderators taking action with you. ETT probably has the plurality of recent actions but opts to warn you. Mind if I ask who you think is persecuting you because I can't figure it out? but rather than name the moderator or moderators who are holding this grudge you instead dismissed the entire subject. I am still entirely unsure who you think is persecuting you because I am unable to find any harsh moderation against you to try and draw a pattern from (no long bans for 10 months) and no one moderator appearing disproportionately in the warnings. It is my conclusion at this point that you are just paranoid and this grudge is in your head but you have dismissed the subject so whatever. Then you felt the need to bring back your same grudge theory without addressing any of the issues like "why is there no harsh moderation being done to you?" and "why is there no pattern in the moderators interacting with you?" here. On November 15 2012 16:10 jdseemoreglass wrote: I've seen that sort of "discussion" myself. I've received ridiculous bans before, and when someone questioned them in ABL they received the stock answer "he's got history you don't know" and they are forced to be content with that. It's not a matter of calling out the mods in particular, it's about being harsher on people they don't like, for whatever reason. In my own case it started with criticism of moderation, I noticed an immediate change after that. You reassert that the moderation done to you is ridiculous, that it is disproportionately harsh because you are not liked. This time, rather than insist it is a specific grudge held by a mod or mods, you suggest that there's a policy of being harsher on people "they don't like", a group you feel you are part of ever since you criticised moderation. Although you assert here that you only ever made a general point about moderation and how no individual can ever be truly subjective On November 17 2012 05:38 jdseemoreglass wrote: I never once said that the mods were out to get me. What I said is that personal bias and emotion can come into moderation, which is undeniable. in both of the above quotes you specifically refer to harsher moderation being done to you, and indeed explain that it is being done to you as a direct result of you criticising moderation. I therefore find this defence that you were simply talking about how humans in general are subjective creatures to be entirely unfounded within your prior statements. It is therefore my conclusion, as evidenced by the above, that you did claim that you were being victimised, either by one or more mods holding a grudge or by the collective after you were flagged as "someone they don't like" and that you believe you have been and still are the victim on ongoing harsh moderation on account of this personal/collective grudge. Notice how he discusses how he's received a number of bans and how he refers to the discussion of his bans in the ABL. Remember that this is a man who, until today, had just one 2 day ban in the last year. Full on whackjob, guess the people upstairs got tired of it. Even his delusions are inconsistent. | ||

When he's not antagonizing the mod staff, he's an alright guy. Problem is he does that a LOT, and many of us have noticed it. He absolutely brought it on himself. | ||

When he's not antagonizing the mod staff, he's an alright guy. Problem is he does that a LOT, and many of us have noticed it. He absolutely brought it on himself. I "brought it on myself"? You've got to be fucking kidding me. Did you even read the thread, the posts in question? Or just one statement out of context? It is no mystery what happened. I can tell you all exactly why I was banned, post in question confirmed by two mods. These posts can all be found in ABL for yourselves if you think I'm bullshitting any of this. So here is what happened: 1) I make a passing joke in ABL. It was CLEARLY not an attack on the mods. If anything, I was poking fun at MYSELF. I repeated the same exact self depracating joke MDJ made in this thread. It was innocuous and would have been ignored if it was anyone else. 2) Kwark tries to turn the joke into an issue and starts attacking me. I've asked him to drop this issue before twice, that I didn't even want to discuss it, but he can't help himself apparently. The truth is Kwark is FAR more concerned with my supposed paranoia or problems with moderation than I am, bringing it up every chance he gets when I am actually AVOIDING the issue as much as I can. If you can't see that it was Kwark bringing it up, I don't know what to tell you, it's in the posts. So basically, Kwark tries to instigate a fight with me again for no reason. And he insults me while doing it for about the 20th time on these forums. 3) At this point, Falling comes into the thread and tells me to "let sleeping dogs lie." I was being attacked by Kwark for no reason at all, and he tells ME to "let sleeping dogs lie." 4) I had had my fill of bullshit. I quite justifiably told Falling to "put your own dog on a leash maybe." For that I was banned 30 days and threatened with a perm. Now for a little more history. Kwark has insulted and attacked me repeatedly, publicly on these forums. He has called me an idiot, moron, delusional, mental patient, retard (repeatedly), whack job, and about a dozen other things I can't even remember anymore. I have never once talked this way to anyone on these forums. Not other posters, not mods, not Kwark. I stick up for myself ONE time with a response that is incredibly mild in comparison, and I get punished hard for it. In other words, Kwark is allowed to repeatedly attack and insult me and I have to forever sit there and take it. Well no thanks, go ahead and fucking perm me. Why would I even want to keep the account, honestly? I can't even post like a normal person on these forums anymore. I did my honest best to stay out of trouble, but I won't continue to sit back with someone, a mod no less, instigating the issue and insulting me unprovoked. User was banned for this post. | ||
