Coaster should get his own forum section 1

Why not give him his own section of the forum? Then all of his threads can go there.
All the people who hate him will never go there.
All the people who find him amusing will go there.
Then you don't need to keep banning him and closing threads.

Wouldn't be surprised if it worked out lol.
But honestly i feel like
unbanned --> posts 3-4 threads --> banned --> unbanned
Just make a section where people can make as many threads as they want.
Not necessarily just for coaster to post. But somewhere for all the threads that we'd normally close can go.

Right now he has his own section of the internet, he got banned again, we are discussing it atm.
As a bit of openness as to how such discussion goes, here's one of the posts I made in the Staff Forum about this matter as the debate goes on.
Coaster, buddy, if you read this don't be offended but consider it, some of us have very real concerns about the road you're on both online and off

Coaster has kind of celeb status in The Pub, loved and hated at the same time.
I havent used the post restriction function yet, would it be possible to cut down hard on his poasting habits?
Perhaps cut it down to 1 thread + 20 posts a day for the time being, and if necessary restrict that further?
I think as a person when hes sane everything is OK, but as I see it he abuses dr00gz a lot that lead to volleys of unintelligable posts of little merit that give our team a lot of work and causes a lot of friction in The Pub.
As a more humanitarian consideration, we are one of his few major social networks that stands between him as he is now and him sharpening his needle on the pavement together with aforementioned hypothetical wildgirl a few months down the line if the dr00gz overcome the Smeagol side of him and only Gollum is left.
Personally I'm in favor of hibernation over an all out banning, but his out of control fucked up posting sprees must stop. Even if he has just 1 thread and 5 posts a day he still can PM with friends where all his urge for social grandstanding is beside the point.
like said, if we can give Gollum the boot and give Smeagol a very limited foothold here I think it would be best. Should his serious activities (study/career plans etc) put some more control and direction in his life, he could become a viable poster most of the time and we can ease him out of restrictions as a community member.

I went back and looked at alot of his posts. Most of them had several pages of people talking back n forth. He was the cause of alot of good discussion on topics here. Go back and read for yourself. Nothing wrong with having him around.

Come to think of it i never noticed OTD!
I guess a lot of people hate on coasty. He probably only opened up ~3 threads. I wouldn't say he's havoc. Not too mention a lot of what people post on this forum is unintelligible 
I guess he just makes too much of a ruckus.

This banning is an outrage. If you don't like seeing lots of Coaster posts, ignore him. We have that functionality for a reason; banning someone for twenty seven years strikes me as more of a personal vendetta than any fair moderator action IMO.

I say bring him back, and ignore him if you don't like him.
But I will say I saw a couple of posts in some threads that were mods warning him, also from one of Pris' posts he stated that they had had a talk about posting a lot of treads, so he had plenty of warning.

I think their issue is most likely his intent. Its not like he was posting a bunch of random threads and posts. He was antagonizing the mods by posting LNC threads over and over right?
I assume the 2038 ban is sorta for the lulz, either that or it is some childish vendetta.
He will be back soon no doubt. Not like he did anything that bad.

This has to be one of the only threads where everyone is advocating the ignore feature.
Usually people get shunned and ridiculed for being such a thin skinned pansy.

Coaster is getting clean and I believe that was partially motivated by the Shroomery. Obviously you can't get clean if you don't want to but I think a lot of members here showed that they cared for him and thought he should stop or slow down his drug abuse. I think letting him back on the Shroomery will continue that positive support.
Just a thought.

There should be a step in order to register on the Shroomery that you have to read Coaster's threads and posts first and decide whether you want to ignore him or not from the beginning.

LOL.
Yeah if it counts for anything I think he's alright. I mean he should post more content oriented threads, and less repeats of the same shit, but besides that I like his style.

perhaps coaster needs a "poster buddy", similar to a math tutor. Someone or a group of his loyal followers that pledge to follow him around and encourage him to perform better on his mod tests. They help him by making posts after him that swerve discussions back, possibly leaving hints in this messages as well, sending him pms, ect.
This group could have a list of tasks drawn up from the mods/admins for goals to try and achieve. This group could call themselves "The Mugs"
Anyways id like to see some examples as i don't follow him very closely. All i know is he posts alot of threads and poof he's gone for months at a time. Oh and he likes to post lot of pics of his volcano and talk about drugs all the time. I heard in this thread that his posts get out of control when he seems intoxicated or something along those lines so if thats what this is mainly about then maybe involving the shroomery members is the best way to deal with it as it would in theory take the load off mods without having to make a bunch of new mods. Maybe down the line "The Mugs" get privileges to edit/delete just coasters "newer" threads/posts, but of course all this hinges on people joining this group actually liking coaster to begin with. Eventually this could be turned into a massive online RPG game where coaster gets points for good behavior and gets to spend them on things, and "The Mugs" get points for when there interventions work and get to spend them on things.
Perhaps this very last part could be a system that works to, a points system where he has to earn points through his posts. Like he gets a "thumbs up" for a good post, and gets a point, which he gets to spend on making a thread or another post This way if he starts "messing up" he gets a thumbs down and then he gets curbed a bit. This might work best in conjunction with that group i was mentioning
sorry for all the edits i was making this all up and kept thinking of new idea's

I mean maybe banning coaster will be good for him. For fucks sake he was advocating that everyone should do meth on a couple of threads. Maybe he's alittle too obsessed with drugs considering he has 30,000 posts I feel like he could accomplish alot if he did something better then spend SO MUCH TIME on the shroomery

There's a journal on here. Just let him post there. The acolytes will post in his journal and leave everyone else alone.

While everyone here has the option to ignore the pages and pages of icons and emoticons, the general public who visits the site as guests do not. As such some of them are forced to scroll through a lot of meaningless and unintelligible emoticons and babble before finding what they came here for in the first place. I feel it takes the content quality down a notch..
also, while some of you might be able to ignore what is going on (and therefore most likely do not have a full idea of the scope of what we are talking about) some of us are charged with cleaning up, editing, and modifying those posts back within the rules. Its tedious, and when you do it for a single user, over and over and over and over again, it gets somewhat frustrating.
also, its is frustrating to see that all of the warnings, bans, and points that have been issued in the past, have not had any continuing long lasting effect. as the same things that were issues in the past; and were the result mod action in the past, continue to happen.

zippoz "in times of widespread chaos and confusion, it has been the duty of more advanced human beings - artists, scientists, clowns, and philosophers - to create order. In such times as ours however, when there is too much order, too much m management, too much programming and control, it becomes the duty of superior men and women and women to fling their favorite monkey wrenches into the machinery. To relieve the repression of the human spirit, they must sow doubt and disruption" "People do it every day, they talk to themselves ... they see themselves as they'd like to be, they don't have the courage you have, to just run with it."

Wiccan_Seeker is right, thats a great idea. Coaster is too important too ban, yet too irritating to let run wild. Its a perfect compromise.

while i can agree that guests should have the easiest time finding what they're looking for... but what are they looking for in the pub?
did he get banned for something somewhere else? idk.
