Any ecologist will tell you that a diverse ecosystem is a robust ecosystem.
The unrealistic sound of these propositions is indicative, not of their utopian character, but of the strength of the forces which prevent their realization.

it's not difficult to manually ignore individual posters you don't want to read posts from or engage with.

But then you can't brag about how someone is on your ignore list because you don't like them!

and more blatant trolling by legal; ah, the kwark v legal battles. gj kwark; pity you can't stop him from trolling so blatantly though, and can't convince the mods to take action against that kind of trolling.

it is a feature in tl+ is it not?
and it doesn't defeat the point of a forum at all; thinking so means you obviously haven't thought abotu the problem mcuh at all.
when moderators fail to moderate, other means of moderation are necessary. one thing that's well proven on the internet is that inadequate moderation leads to crappy results.

chiming in to say back in the day when a ban was used as threat of forcing a change of topic LL's ban would've made sense. but we have warnings these days and a ban albeit already half over seems overkill. people have supported much worse arguments with much worse logic, civility, and language. christ if website feedback was moderated as well with the rest of the forum we would've seen zlefin banned in this thread dozens of times alone with this standard.

He wasn't arguing against my position, he was deliberately misconstruing my position, without even having the decency to argue against the position he pretended I held. My position was unambiguously stated and went so far as to specifically disavow the points he kept insisting I was making. It was playground bullshit. I didn't ban him but I did report it and I'm glad that I wasn't alone in seeing it that way.

i'm not going to pretend to defend either his impossibly stupid position or even less impressive strategy. simply adding that it isn't ban worthy. by a very, very large margin. i'd go so far as to say if that's the standard for poor posting many if not all participants in that thread could use the same breather. in this case yourself certainly included. and so i'm obviously not advocating anyone be banned but rather pointing out absurdity with absurdity.

This. If this particular ban signals the enforcement of a new posting standard that will be universally applied, I am all for it. I just seriously doubt that this is the case.

At least put a bib on if you're going to give oral on live TV.

Another entry in the catalog of uneven standards in the thread. Can we get some mod feedback on offhand comments of oral sex?

Because I'm going to love insinuating on how politicians suck Schumer's cock next time that's in the news.

Mod feedback, please.

hurray for more bans! keep it up, mods! (just noticed plansix ban)
and celebrating justice done seems entirely proper and grown up to me.
dunno why nixer would complain about that. mostly I use this thread to vent anyways.

There actually was a greasemonkey ignore posts script made for a certain liquid dota user. Not that I'm condoning its use, but I do find it humorous that he managed to annoy people enough to make a script but no one in the politics thread has actually matched that accomplishment yet.

On the contrary, almost everyone in that situation is so preoccupied with being annoyed that they're unable to take a break out of the busy schedule of trying to BTFO the others to handle such a simple task.

I'm waiting for the next obvious cock-sucking to see if everybody's fine with Pelosi or Bernie having traces of cum left on their face after a TV interview. Catalog of double standards, here we come.

I only wish brave moderation would speak up on if bibs for oral sex is an accepted part of US Politics Thread Standards. I can envision Obama's next interview resulting in media orgasm, or any number of similar situations.

So come on banhammers and moderation staff, get on the record about oral copulation of Republican senators by presidents by StealthBlue, this is a feedback thread after all. I have some dripping analogies that are in keeping with new standards.
