I think the "humiliation" stuff is more so the obsessive/stalker behavior GH uses with people. It's gone way overboard more than a few times.
I strongly support the concept of focusing on ideas rather than individuals. No calling people out is a good system. Especially for threads with regulars where lots of people know each other.

lol "obsessive/stalker behavior", I just don't take shit. If people copped to their crap it wouldn't come up more than once. But I'm not going to let people build arguments off of premises they ignored getting invalidated.

Like the time Plansix said something based on a faulty premise, you called him on it, he admitted he was wrong, and you kept getting on his case about it anyway?

Because he didn't admit that he actually pushed the same exact article and argument months before and tried the same thing of just ignoring being shown he was wrong.
Instead he made up some story about mixing up reports and some mysterious NPR story.
Additionally the whole liberals spreading propaganda while simultaneously accusing me of being manipulated by Russian ads was extremely obnoxious and that served as a great example of just how misguided the months long assault on the substance and source of my views was, in that regard.

We are all guilty of letting stuff get to personal from time to time, myself included. The thread is better without it.

We all understand that wasn't personal too right? As the resident Bernie supporter I presumed I was the target for that reason and you just happened to be the liberal/Democrat caught with their hand in the cookie jar.

Well, it's not like GH followed someone to another thread, and randomly accused that person of calling him a batman villian. Could be worse, could be worse.
Also, naming GH. US pol thread website feedback more lenient that US pol thread? :D Anyways, it appears this is a case of choosing Mohdoo as an example to set the tone for the future, than any actual warning specifically for Mohdoo's action.

We are less likely to action people in website feedback in general.

Getting warned or actions in website feedback takes effort. The person has to really go for it, IMO.

I strongly disagree with that. I came to that thread for his posts on the news.
This feels like overmanagement. What has been accomplished now that his posts aren't allowed?

If others are not allowed to post stories without explanation then neither should he. Equal rules for everyone, simple as that.

It seemed like he was making the effort to, was there a disconnect between what he was doing and what the rest of the mods were expecting?

I cannot go into full detail on this as this involves private TL matters.
But long story short, the moderation team have made repeated attempts to contact StealthBlue in regards to our new rules and guidelines for the US Politics Mega-thread. We were hoping SB would PM us back and that we could discuss things together. However, despite our efforts, SB never PMed us back and never posted in the staff forums either. Therefore, because SB was not being responsive, we decided to temp ban him from the thread.
