The hell a_flayer get banned for?

Also any word on the methodology for the duration of these bans? Like are we just going to thread ban people indefinitely now?

Just curious, what did a-flayers get banned for? The wording implies he posted a tweet randomly, but I must have missed it.

I'm pretty sure they have to ban a leftie sometimes just to keep danglars from exploding so they just find a tweet someone posted.

What was he banned for too? Just curious, as I cannot find the post. I can barely decipher his posts anyways, so laden with memetastic popculture references I just don't have the context to understand what he is writing.

At a guess? His generally obnoxious, conspiracy-theory minded, Donald Trump brown-nosing attitude and very specific anti-left bias that has no roots in consensual reality. Kickboxer never lasts long because he can't handle not being an arsehole for more than maybe three posts. And then he immediately nails himself on his cross and goes all 'LIBERAL MARXISTS ARE OPPRESSING FREE SPEECH'. See: EU politics thread for a perfect example of the latter.

And then we all have a good chuckle at his expense while he acts as if he's spreading the One Truth That Nobody Sees while we're all politely waiting for the crazy man to stop talking about things we already know. And then he probably runs off to whine on The_Donald. It's almost confirmed that he goes there, and his postings have been very clearly downsliding in his last few appearances.

With a post like that, why didn’t he just break the threadban rules and post in USPOL anyways? That’s a “I know I’m getting banned for this” post if I’ve ever seen one.

How would he do that? He's thread banned...

You have nothing to fear from the revolution comrade. Only the capitalists and enemies of the state need worry.

He posted in the EU thread because he was posted in the US Politics thread. Because he just had to go martyr himself, because that's Kickboxer. His particular brand of right wing 'thought' won't be especially missed. He comes to preach, not discuss.

So is the ban an informal "if you post here we'll ban you" or an actual inability to post? That's been kind of inconsistent between various threadbans historically.

Dude was so aggressively anti US he made you look like a patriot. His "we should make syria happen in the US" being a joke was getting suspiciously thin.

Its the same as Danglers in the early day. They can't post in the thread. Like how I got banned from tech support for pointing out that my motherboard had the slots for 4 graphics cards.
A wise man will say that he knows nothing. We're gona party like its 2752 Hail Dark Brandon

Nice, I agree with all the bans. I was banned for the same reason a_flayer was about a month ago. I noticed Danglars posting a lot better when he was first unbanned and then it plummeted shortly after.

Can you link the suspected post?
