I'm convinced that Hot_Bid just wanted an excuse to pad his stats. On a related note, I believe that the thread with the highest amount of bans per post capita (or whatever phrase would apply to such a ratio) is this one. | ||

He made 3 posts, 2 of which were 1 liners. Someone needs to temp ban him! | ||

Holy crap thats a lot of red text, everyone in that thread -1 person (and Hot_Bid) got a ban, must have been his lucky day. I think any thread where it just consists of an OP who is then banned and the thread is immediately locked wins out with a ratio of 1:1, but i guess that doesn't really count. | ||

platorepublic was just temp banned for 2 days by Beyonder. That account was created on 2011-04-14 10:18:14 and had 102 posts. Reason: If you don't want to obey site rules, you don't have to come here. His original OP was closed by Chill with I don't see the point of this thread so I'm going to close it. He then does the no-no of making an ideantical thread + OP, and get 2-day banned. So I feel conflicted about this, because it's in the grey zone of moderation, and I feel it tended more towards the dark (more in the wrong): Naughty: Little content OP which was very open ended and generated a "spam pics pls" type of thread Relevancy: THIS PAST WEEK there has been another thread opened very much like this one, hence Chill's point ('hmm, post pics of guys you feel gay for, sounds familiar") Attitude which applies full-well to people hatin' on what you do and like IRL, of "if you don't like it, go away". Sure, but now when THE MODS are on the loose Directly re-opens a thread, with identical name AND OP in spite of the last one being closed. Circumvented MOD's decision and deliberately disobeyed the closing of the thread, without (I presume) making any attempt to ask "HEY DUDE WTH MAN! It's better that I make a different thread instead of spamming Mora's-Mecca with homo-drool pics! Let US (burgeoning TL sub-community) have our fun." Questionable MOD Practice: No explanation whatsoever as to why the original one was closed. (more on this later) No explanation to the public why the next one was closed ("D1nt do dis guise! Na0utY!") Now I don't know about any conversations Ms. TL.net Bot had with him, so please do help. There are two ways to see it: AHH, my bones ache! Ugh, let's go to General. WHAAATT1!! ANOTHER FUCKING ONE OF THESE?! The first was bad enough, second limit, but this is too much. --> close Of course this guy knows why it's closed, I mean, really, who DOESN'T know NaDa's Body??! Now for the enlightened version: LAME! I call rip-off. Oh wait, let's see where this guy's sexual direction is going --> Hi Mora-Mecca --> Ok this makes a lot more sense ^^ Hmm how well do we think this guy knows TL.net and it's humor? Been here less than a month.. WTF man, replies to a Tossgirl pic "Damn, I actually find that girl attractive, more so than the other two guys you posted." Hmmm, so he doesn't even know who Tossgirl is, do we really think he'd be IN on the jokes? It comes down to We all understood why, and agreed it was a good choice. What concerns me is that our dear MODs are so overworked they didn't have the valiance to give an explanation as to why the thread was closed that the OP himself could understand. So it escalated to "screw u homophobia pooh-pooh, if you don't like it go away" "No you go away" --> Ban + Show Spoiler [Conflict Escalation at it's Best] + Scrub: "MOD, you Blah!" MOD "NO, YOU BLAH" banned I appreciate it wasn't Chill who banned him, but even so, I feel this could have been handled in a way to be informative and educational to all, instead of vindictive. Sorry for a wall of text, I do it all the time in NaDa's Body. + Show Spoiler [Absolving myself of guilt] + OK YES I KNOW I somewhat helped bring down his original OP(hence feeling guilty), but it wasn't like I was spamming pictures, I was just spreading the good news about the BeSt Body You can tell how seriously I take this thread by the amount of formatting and editing I've done  | ||

That platorepublic guy has some of the worst posting habits I've ever seen. Not only bad but also effortless and condescending. And he somehow makes sure there's always at least one post from him in the sidebar. | ||

Not really. I modified the rules after a few months so that NSFW images are permitted in spoiler tags. Obviously, naked genitals and sex and stuff are always off-limits, but the sort of things your boss might not want to see you looking at on the job should be spoiler tagged. | ||

So sometimes I just post a quick one-liner as opposed to going into a huge explanation. The implication of "I don't see the point of this" is actually "This is a contentless thread that boils down to 'post sexy pictures'". For clarity, I want you to know that this decision had nothing to do with the "most sexyful Starcraft player" thread. If the thread was "Post sexy ____" it would be closed, because TL has never stood for threads where you just post pictures (outside of the funny pics thread). Had he needed more of an explanation, he could have easily PM'd me asking for clarification instead of the PM I received: Original Message From platorepublic: I don't see the point of many threads on General Discussion Forum... Are you antigay? Original Message From Chill: You not seeing the point of a thread isn't relevent. No, I am not antigay. Original Message From platorepublic: Well good for you. It's "relevant" by the way. Original Message From Chill: Sorry. I don't have Firefox installed at work and Internet Explorer doesn't come with a spell-check, nor am I able to install one for it. I thought about tabbing to check the spelling, but decided it wasn't worth it. consistent, relevant, etc. are tricky ones. I answered both his implied and direct question and then the discussion degraded into how I misspelled "relevant". Let's go through your problems: 1. Yes, the post when closing the thread should be direct and leave nothing to implication. My explanation is just sheer volume of closures, which isn't fully acceptable, but should be understandable. 2. This is redundant with #1. It's worth mentioning that I receive a followup PM from the authors of an estimated 30%-50% of the threads I close. Some unnecessarily apologize, some are simply aggressive, but the majority are looking to talk through the ban reasoning and either receive further justification or are looking to dispute the reasoning and overturn the action. Any of those actions by the OP would have defused this situation. I find the PM he sent me ridiculous. | ||
