That's not to say I think ninazerg was wrong, but what a shitfest of a thread. | ||

All the mods that saw the post believed it should be actioned so this wasn't the action of one mod, even though I banned fluidrone and helped ban opisska as well. Both wrote posts that were extremely insensitive. It doesn't matter if you're trying to make a joke that you think is funny if the audience themselves don't think it is. Even more so when the guy who died was not someone related to you in any way, shape or form. Heck, neither of these guys have probably had any kind of contact with TB outside TL and even on TL, doubt it's been anything significant either (sorry but quoting or responding to a post of his on here isn't). Either way, the bottom line is to be nice and respectful to everyone, including those who passed away. Ok, perhaps I misinterpreted, but remember, 2 guys got tempbanned and I am speaking in favour of them, so it'll be easy to misinterpret a tone of voice. Yes, both posts were insensitive, but neither had harmful or malicious intentions. The most you can say is that the intention was to be mischievious, so to tempban them both would be a gross overreaction. But I think that TB had less meaning to me than to people more closely connected to the personality scene, and perhaps one of you met TB before and suchlike, and that obviously played a factor and so in deference whoever feels his death strongly you would most likeley defer to his desire to stronger punishment. I stand by my statements; I don't really see either posts as unwelcome behaviour, but I can respect it if you randomly draw the line there out of respect for the dead. Also that thread was like something you would had seen 15 years ago. | ||

Also that thread was like something you would had seen 15 years ago. There is a time and a place for everything. A thread announcing that TB had passed away should have nothing but condolences and memory related comments. As for fluidrone's post, he PMed me saying that he had no ill intention nor was he trying to make a joke when he posted that. Which means that it was just a poor choice of words/poor timing on his part. | ||

That's not to say I think ninazerg was wrong, but what a shitfest of a thread. I always felt there was a chance he was serious. The user Purind had the exact same thought as I did. Just to be 100% sure, I tested it and was able to reproduce exactly what the OP had described. I don't think the comments made by TheFoReveRwaR were appropriate. If I were a moderator, I would've definitely warned him for calling someone a "douchebag troll" right off the bat. A lot more stuff aroused my suspicion, but I said "So, please, send me the saved game, if it happens to actually exist. If I'm making the argument that you're full of shit, then the worst thing that can happen is that I might learn something new, and then say "I apologize, I thought you were making this up because what you were saying was absolutely bonkers." which costs me nothing. I eagerly await the game files." which is basically "I'm 100% willing to admit I'm wrong." Up until the 27th post in the thread, it was about figuring out what exactly this user was trying to accomplish. After that, it turned into another user trying to make the thread about himself. I really wanted to figure out what was going on, but after I requested the saved game, he asked to be nuked. I just have so many questions now. | ||

This could have also been achievable with passive-aggressive half walls of text. | ||

Pretty much every insular online forum gets taken over by "posting superstars" and their cheerleaders eventually, not surprising that it's happening to BW. | ||

My post might have been insensitive to a boxer-fred type of tl poster or more generally any posters on team liquid that arguably gave totalbiscuit no choice but to leave it, and that is possibly probably who it was aimed at..? i guess i'm "fine" with the "only" temporary ban that resulted from it... However i want to make it crystal clear that it was not a "joke"! i solely reminded people that while celebrated right now, tb had been pushed out of tl quite a wile ago! There was no ill intent towards tb in this post whatsoever, .. one could even, say i was paying my respects to tb by doing such a post? (not unlike oppisska seemingly did his due diligence in the matter .. don't you think mr john bain himself would like to have a joke or two in there?! to pay respect to how funny he could be!) .. i do ...) Whatever you may think of the metaphor i used (a "banned forever" post typed in/for the ABL thread) there was no other way to make it, no other place to make it, no other time to make it, so i did it. Again, that was a line, not a bid .. and certainly not a joke  | ||

sc-darkness was just temp banned for 1 week by KwarK. That account was created on 2017-08-15 04:42:15 and had 671 posts. Reason: Hey, buddy, you're posting like a cunt would post. Work on that. This dude posts like he's alone in a room having a conversation with the television. | ||

How many pages has it been about the last mass shooting. Quite often I clic on it checking if it hasn't been the case, though -in a sense- it is hopefully just the same debate, not some news. | ||
