It's no personal attack to you, anyone who isn't ignorant knows that ones political view has little to do with their personality. And as far as I know, in general (cus I know jackshit about the shutdown thingie) blatant bias is there for a reason, usually when something really silly or extreme happens. | ||

Not surprised he isn't being allowed back (3k posts DOES surprise me, means he wasn't shit-posting as much this time). As for being right-wing on TL, the amount of abuse you get is a bit ridiculous. You can take a look at the "US govt. shut down" thread to see how little information or discussion you get in any political threads, as everyone is just happily bashing away at anyone saying something positive about Republicans. I'm European right (so probably left of Democrats  ), but it's still impossible to post.Oh no, you're right.... I saw someone post "teabagger" on page 3. I thought for sure that TL was above this level of mudslinging; I only expected that silliness on HuffPost. >_<' If I called farva a "libtard," I wouldn't be able to type this. Haven't seen any other bans from that thread, to my knowledge. I'm surprised. I thought it would create a firestorm of mod actions among posters who can't keep their comments civil. O_o | ||

It's not/you're not/they don't, and I can't even add enough lols to stress how many laughs I've gotten from those teenagers on this forum. (of course there are a lot of posters who are intelligent and post really well, but those aren't funny so I don't read them as often. I come here for Starcraft not a headache.) | ||

O_o I dont read political threads on TL, so if you see shit like that happening -- report it. If it isn't actioned, PM me. This has nothing to do with left/right wing, this is open and shut PBU. | ||

I know you guys just love reading 30 pages of people shitting on Republicans and beating dead horses. Never gets old! Who am I kidding, you people actually think you are enforcing objective truth by eliminating every last right winger. Well done Plexa. Who's next on your radar? Anyone significant actually left? Is DEB permed yet? Ah, I see they are working their way towards that, per usual. Guess that means there is practically no one left. Eh, fuck this forum. The discussions aren't even remotely interesting anymore, completely one sided. They hardly qualify as discussions at all. Thank you for your feedback. | ||

Haha! In my mind I see Plexa searching for that one frikkin tie that must be somewhere in the depth of his wardrobe together with his other formal clothing to write this one comment. | ||

There is no inquisition out there trying to stamp out conservatives for being conservative. It has everything to do with how those certain posters have posted. If you've actually been following the threads, you would have seen that regular non-right-wing posters such as me, sam, farv, paralleluniverse and others have been banned before. While sc2superfan's posts didn't warrant a permaban, his history as a PBU certainly did, and that's what he was banned for. It may have been people reporting him that lead to the ban, but the reason he was banned for is completely legit. I think the issue is that there are just more liberal posters, and as such, they probably report the right wingers for insidious posts more often. If you see liberals shit-posting, just report it. | ||

Insinuating that there's a crusade against conservatives on TL.net by the administration could only really be said by forum newbies, honestly. It's not as if a lot of really antagonistic leftists haven't been banned on TL.net through its history (I can think of quite a few). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentage User was warned for this post | ||
