Plenty of staff have left TL over the years, both voluntarily and not. I'm neither xDaunt nor those who made the final decision on the matter, so I won't comment on it

Fair enough, but we reserve the right to free associate about the possible reasons and invent conspiracy theories about the events.

Unless other comments are provided, I am going to assume that it was done purely to appease the ABL, because we do, in fact, run the site and probably even the whole planet.

I know it's not true, but it could be, so I am gonna base my worldview on it.

Top most credible explanations:
1. Our friendly neighborhood xDaunt was tapped by Trump to be the SCOTUS nominee, and Trump told him that his position as a writer on teamliquid.net presented a conflict of interest that he had to take care of - so he resigned.
2. As was seen in that Czechoslovakia is making a "fake news police," such an event is discreetly happening all across Europe, and it is a front to discriminate against right-wingers. This fake news police has a representative to TL, as they have a large base in Europe. This purge started with axkcd, who was removed while being listed as "Requested" while being forcibly removed, then came Testie, then came xDaunt.
3. Our friend xDaunt was abusing his lack of a report button to organize match fixing through TL. Since people could not report him, he was immune from all forms of prosecution.
4. Russian hackers hacked the moderation staff and removed him.

Are you using "Czechoslovakia" ironically, as willful insult or is it a rare evidence that you are actual ignorant of something?

That's however exactly what you would have said to save face if it indeed was in error.

Yes, but that is exactly what you would say to cover your inability to acknowledge your inability to control your impulse to comment about it.

Shit, do you have to be this overpowered even in shitposting? So far the only way I have seen anyone win an argument over you was to annoy you with stupidity long enough for you to become disinterested in it. Such a one-sided balance does not promote good discussion and you should be banned for it (which would also make this "discussion" curiously ontopic).

You already did. This says that xDaunt was not the same person as those who made the final decision. In other words, not (completely) voluntary. Spill the beans!

If the ABL is not being sated with juicy bans, then at least sate it with juicy gossip!

What can I say, it comes with experience. Knowing how to make people angry at will is a useful skill toi have.

Irony is that I only got banned for being a completely different kind of troll.

last october, i offered a bet of $500 to a friend that trump would lose miserably at election time (he declined, luckily for me). it was not possible in my mind that he could ever be elected. given how ignorant i truly was, i will not bet against #1. xdaunt for SCOTUS!! make the constitution great again!

No.1 is highly implausible because it suggests that Trump cares about conflicts of interest in his nominees.

You're assuming that someone who wants to be destaffed is always granted that. The admin team always has to decide to push the button, regardless of whether the receiver of destaffing wants it or not.
