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?


I'm just assuming he posted some article without offering his views on it. I didn't bother to look for the post, but I'm just assuming it was the same thing as it was for me. I gave a sarcastic comment on an article, but I didn't actually do a "here's what I think of it" kinda deal. I can't imagine Seeker has some sorta vendetta against a_flayer and made up a totally bogus claim that we could all see was false lol.

I'd want to see what the offending post was. I went back several pages when I saw he got banned and barely even saw him posting at all in them, and the most recent article he linked was accompanied by plenty of justification and discussion.

Seeker is a very fair mod and he in no way pressured me to make this kind of post, nope. This was all from my own volition.

Right now I'm of the opinion there isn't an offending post and it was a bullshit reason. There very well may be a post though.

He wanted to ban him. I just think the reason was bullshit.

I mean the reason is stated quite clearly. I also disagree with the rule in itself (I think it only enforces people to not post sources for their comments, as even links followed by a statement and a followup discussion gets warned), but it is a rule nonetheless.

Not the rule itself (well sorta but I understand why it exists), I'm saying there's no post offending said rule. Of course if bans included links to the offending post or the offending posts were notated in some way this wouldn't be an issue. Alas, here we are with blind faith by some and skepticism on my part.

Barring the aforementioned remedies, the simplest way to quell this skepticism would be to provide the offending post. I don't think there is one (as I've said), I don't think one is coming.

Based on those reasons, I think the ban reason was bullshit. a_flyer may well have had some post somewhere violating some rule, but the stated reason (and as of yet to be provided post) don't seem to be it.

Hence the calling of bullshit.

I'm not surprised, you want to share it with us?

I mean him joking around about wanting to make what happened in syria happen in the US was pretty offensive. It wasn't even a short shitpost but it looked like he put a lot of thought and effort into a pretty weirdly thing to post. He was so Anti US in the thread he makes GH look like a patriot.

I dont a problem with the America bashing, except that it gets a bit plodding, like a Kiss guitar solo. At some point it is time to move on.

He had a post with two links I believe, and one of them only had one sentence of context. It had a spoilered video, but you had to watch the video to get context.

This one got reported so I'm assuming it's this one.

Not the worst offense, but it does come dangerously close to argument via hyperlink. And the spoiled video wasn’t necessary.
