I completely understand setting a norm against his way of posting, but you can hardly fault him for not knowing exactly where the limits are given the literally thousands of times he's gotten away with that exact same thing.
edit: to be clear, I'm not expecting mods to come and justify this decision. I'm just expressing my surprise. If you guys think the ban had anything to do with that post in particular, you're reading waaaaaaaay too much into it. That just happened to be the one I clicked on to pull the trigger. I wouldn't say any of his posts were "nit-picking" and most of the threads he posts in are specifically meant to be argumentative discussions. If it had nothing to do with that post in particular it seems rather capricious. He only has a handful of posts since his last ban and they don't seem to merit a ban either individually or collectively.
well when your basically told you have one more chance than continue to make questionable posts at a certain point your probably going to cross the line and get banned. can't say I'm going to miss either of them honestly. hopefully someone doesn't open a thread in web feedback blaming Kwark though. (Joke's becoming a little dated since it hasn't happened in a while but oh well I'm still using it.)
consideirng Sham literally just got off of a week ban you'd think he'd be smarter
January 14 2014 06:51. sam!zdat was just temp banned for 1 week by KwarK.
That account was created on 2010-10-14 03:45:55 and had 5536 posts.
Reason: Oh come on. If you're going to stop talking then stop talking, that was just an ad hominem. At least couple your insults with arguments to give the semblance of exchanging ideas.

Well of course it wasn't literally nothing. Use some common sense please.

It's weird when you actually know the people who are being banned. (Well on TL that it)

Finally someone banned sam. He was not worth having around. Sure he seemed more intelligent than the average poster and had controversial opinions that sparked discussion, but he was also an asshole. I was just discussing with Shellbot yesterday that I eagerly await the hero that finally pulls the trigger.

I'll miss both of 'em. RIP.

I'll take more assholes and a more interesting forum any day.

Now that he is banned, I actually hope he actually tries to do something against capitalism rather than living in the continental anti-capitalist industry that is for everyone but the working class.

I honestly don't get why Sam was banned. I even reported him once for that comment about jerking off baboons or whatever (with the baby's first nietzche) but that was because it was nothing but an attack. I found the comment he was banned for to be fairly benign, and fairly similar to his usual posts, while being more interesting and intelligent than 99% of posters. Oh well.

I'm sure ETT doesn't like you half as much as you deserve.
P.S. Don't misspell the names of your betters.

You kind of make my point for me, don't you.

"the names of your betters" rofl

tl moderation is not doing itself any favors picking that post as a "trigger post". not particularly fierce, on-point. look below it f.ex, more abrasive, delivered with a blatant disregard for the topic at hand (ww1 anti-war movement consisted of...). chalk it up to poetic justice.
seems fairly obvious that he was banned for chastizing moonbear. extremely tragic considering what sparked their feud long ago (atrocious moderating). i too hold a personal grudge against moonbear (atrocious moderating), but i have learned from sam!zdat's misteak.
i could extract some really nasty liquid from the sour grapes on the last couple of pages... "chateau bruise d'ego, excellent vintage, sir", but "the best vintage is the vintage we have to sell". tl moderation is about to make another mistake.
on a related note for a good while now i have been giving boblion the benefit of the doubt, thinking that he was responding idiotically to sam!zdat's posting as tl-satire. believing it was did not make it so.

You do realize his "usual posts" were the problem, right?

whenever someone says "misteak" I remember that terrible scene from Don't Be A Menace where Marlon Wayans is having sex with a fat girl

Actually, I didn't even see the Moonbear comment until AFTER I banned him. Just made me even more certain I'd made the right call.
