There's something really nasty about untruthfully suggesting that a specific person did this. We had a lot of internal discussions in the mod chat before we came to an agreement about a 30 day temp ban. Hopefully, GH will realize that he is always skating on very thin ice with us and that he really needs to shape up his posting. | ||

So, I can understand why he wasn't permed over something like that, even though the joke was in poor taste, and uncalled for, and he doubled down on it after I immediately asked him if it was bait, and he ignored the moderators asking him about it... But what DMCD is saying is true too, that given his history, it's surprising that he can continuously get away with stuff like this. From what I've seen, he doesn't actually contribute much of anything outside of being active in political threads, but I admit I may be wrong on that. so he doesn’t contribute much of anything except where he contributes? what kind of logic is this? and who would survive a mass ban of anyone who “doesn’t contribute much of anything” under these terms? | ||

Contributing to discussion on a forum is the bare minimum. In my mind I compared him to users who are granted leeway because of status (top player, former pro, etc.) or contributions (Liquipedia, strategy posts and discussions, community involvement such as training pupils or running tournaments, hosting mafia games, just to name a few examples). As far as I know, he doesn't do any of the above so he "doesn't contribute much" because what he does is the bare minimum, and clearly he isn't very good at going about that without getting in trouble and rubbing people the wrong way. I'd rate being active in politics threads to be a very low impact and low value form of contribution. This is a forum dedicated to StarCraft, after all. You're free to disagree on that point, but that's my perspective. Hence, I am surprised that he is granted so much leeway seemingly due to post count and longevity alone. The people that would survive a mass ban on such terms are people who 1. Contribute or 2. Don't behave themselves the way he does, obviously. | ||

We as a group went over it in Feedback that you can't slander someone and not provide some kind of evidence. He could have put '/s' or said it was a poor joke, and probably been fine. But as with xD, he refused to do so. So he got what he got. He gets a lot of leniency and he, in my opinion, tried to take advantage of it. | ||
