What a commission could do, is figure out what happened, and make recommendations for what people can do, and what legal changes could be made. And George Zimmerman pretty clearly is culpable in some broad sense, that's why there was already a civil settlement reached between martin's family and GZ/homeowner's group., the question is of what, and how serious is it (probably not very). A commission could help answer that.

Magpie.
I can understand the anger. Life is unfair and a 17 year old kid died for no real reason. He secretly wants some form of 'cosmic justice', which isn't that uncommon. It's a natural impulse.
Of course, that doesn't change the facts of the case. There is no evidence that indicates that Zimmerman is overtly 'racist' or had murderous intent.
Maybe Trayvon was a victim of systemic racism that we're all subject to. Maybe Trayvon is being unfairly characterized as a criminal when really, he's probably just a dumb kid wrapped up in hip hop kitsch. I bring this kind of stuff up in the thread because it's topical — the case would be of zero interest to anyone if it wasn't infused with race politics.
But I'd like to think I'm still pretty respectful of the other posters. And I don't take any resentment I have towards the world out on them (I hope).

I'm surprised this got banned. Stuff like this gets posted a lot in LR threads with little moderation. Though I'm sure this guy has had his fair share of moderations.
Also, I don't understand people who post in LR threads but don't seem to like SC2 =/

Was a mixture of player bashing and balance whining for the other ones. I feel like that post is just as bad as anything in the general category of balance whining, player/caster bashing. It's essentially game bashing. D:
You're right that it seems to usually not be moderated as strongly though, in general.

I don't get why people would spend their free time doing something they A) don't like and B) aren't forced to do by anyone else.
Also, on the subject of bans, how long does barrin have left on his ban? The dude went kind of haywire in the Ask TL Staff thread what seems like a while back, and while I don't know why his banling status was taken away, I do know the moderation staff gave him some time off to cool down. Does anyone know if he is gonna come back? I liked his sc2 map work .

Im sure someone will say flash in game 2 should have done this or that but it still feels too unforgiving if someone gets hard countered. I don't even... you've gone full fucking retard... Starcraft 2 has been and always will be 1a2a3a. Its hilarious when people go nuts when they see Parting right click two templar into a terran army and storm. Fucking humor me.

I follow the Trayvon thread closely and Magpie is one of the few people that make me irritated there, so I'm glad he's been smashed again. He was banned a week ago and should have gotten the cue to stop posting there but unfortunately it wasn't enough to deter him.

theking1 was just temp banned for 2 days by Plexa.
That account was created on 2013-06-06 22:55:49 and had 295 posts.
Reason: Unable to debate in a civil way.
I have been waiting to see that name in the list, but for PBU reason. It was like seeing the right shape of a christmas present only to find out that it was a G.I. Joe and not He-Man.

Are people getting banned for starting the manner threads? Or is it all just getting closed?

If I wanted to post a ban request I'd do it just to be creative

Lol.
Still I'm not sure saying you hate a player is the same as actually insulting/bashing him. :/ RIP Wintex

hate is too strong of a feeling to have about someone on tl. you are only allowed to feel from very happy to displeased about someone, in public that is. yes, it has an upper bound as well. i remember somebody being banned over very enthusiastic fanfic. or at least i think i do.

If by very enthusiastic you mean creepy and definitely nsfw then yes, it has happened multiple times I think? ^^
