Just made me even more certain I'd made the right call. to be fair, until I looked more closely I also thought it was for questioning the moonbear ban (I think it was perfectly good). | ||

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. Yeah, intelligent posts are completely wasted if they sound like they're being written by a jerkwad who's already decided he's right. Then you're not really sparking any sort of discussion or sharing ideas in a constructive manner, you're just flamebaiting. The fact that sam didn't bother to tone down his posts after so many warnings speaks rather ill of him (i.e. he just wanted to hear himself talk and chastise people rather than actually enlighten people or whatever he was on about half the time). | ||

Did nunez really "request" the ban or is that reason just tongue-in-cheek? | ||

He wrote in the "had been banned for this post" redtext himself. So another mod treated it like a request and actually DID temp ban him.  Failed attempt to martyr, I guess. | ||

You told me he was going to get banned a couple of weeks ago. And now it happened. But when we can see it that far out, they should to or learn by touching the stove. Over and over and over. | ||

Who would've known that was the final straw lol. Can't say much for sam since I haven't had to interact with him but he has quite the reputation around ABL in terms of bans so I guess that's not surprising. Either way, best of luck to them! fixed I think nunez's was the best. not only did he have an incoherent rant but he put red text in himself. | ||
