Petition to have Hanky's ban reduced to suspension
    #4148269 - 05/07/05 08:46 PM (18 years, 10 months ago)

We the community of Shroomery ask politely that the Administration give Hanky one final chance and reduce his ban to a suspension. He has shown remorse and will follow the rules of the forum. We understand he has broken rules multiple times in the past but given one last chance he will not let you down.

I don't agree with a permaban. The most he should have got was a 24 hour ban, but even that would be wrong IMO. Hanky is a valued asset to this community. Fer real.

I agree with permabanning users for threatening people, endangering peoples' privacy, trying to sell drugs, spamming, scamming,(most) puppeteering and disagreeing with me.

But not for posting a pic of a dude and a chicken having sex. Especially when it's posted by a very beloved user, in a forum that is not visible to unreged visitors, is at the bottom of the boards and is clearly labeled with a warning about disturbing material.

Come on, Banno, lighten up.

I totally agree with Gijith

I know Anno is reasonable and will see by so many threads and bitching that Hanky is a big part of OTD and shouldnt be banned. Come on Anno dont let me down bro I know you can do us this one favor ....he will be good from now on he promised.

Also I would like to suggest the mods consider only taking action when someone complains about the picture....I mean no one in there was really offended and the thread would have died eventually. I would only take action when people complain but this refers only to OTD.

? No posting of bestiality/scat pics/shock pics/underage nudity. -- A link to shock images is ok, with an appropriate warning, but underage nudity will not be tolerated under any circumstances.

That doesnt explain the permanent ban, it justifies a week ban at most.

'Was it consentual?'

at what point would you get fed up with it, lets say it's a 1 week cap on posting
scat/beastiality pics, how many times do you feel a single user can get a 1 week
ban before you feel that their whole purpose is simply to piss you off.

I heard 'you could have warned me' regarding KoTT and the photo of my wife and I,
well, KoTT was warned when he posted Alakonas pics, Sykos and a couple of others
did he need a warning for each event, each person or were the ones he recieved plenty

I think the ban would have to be longer than one week to deter the member from doing it over and over. I'd say 3 weeks max on petty offenses.

About your warning question, I'd say one warning would cover all of those offenses at once. I would have banned him if he continued after I warned him.

There is a system about how long the ban is.

it's not my intention, but people keep demanding unbiased moderating, that would cover enforcement of the rules, they dont want double standards until they need
them on their side, if the mods of OTD are to do their job without bias, goatse
will forever be a link, sitting around for the first week linking the pic because
of the rebellion and banning many of them because they dont wish to conform
to the unbiased moderation will stir this stink forever.

hanky got a 2 week ban for scat in the pub, he recieved a 30 day ban for scat in
the pub... do I think a week long ban is a deterant fo most shit, yes for some
people but for others it's absolutely nothing, I know people that have been
released on parole after 7 years that have immediately gone out and done something
to be returned to prison, my stepdad recieved 2 years, got released, a life
sentance, was released and 3 months later back in for another life sentance, he
also had 8 DUIs in a 3 year span.

just using it as an example but it does show that a picture may be more important

Just replying to whoever here.

- Hanky did not post scat.
- Hanky did post a picture of chicken sex.
- Hanky did not have malicious intentions when posting said pic.
- Hanky has been VERY well behaved since his last ban as he knew what could happen.
- Hanky did not realise the chicken sex pic would get him banned.
- Hanky was not asked to remove the picture.
- Hanky was banned for 'Scat and Beastiality' pics.

THOSE are the facts.

I dunno, this whole situation got horribly blown out of proportion, which was then reacted to childishly by the OTD members this afternoon.

Something has to be done, though, that's for sure.

I thought that all the childishness was them blowing it out of proportion,
to think, the thing that started the whole ball rolling has long been forgotten
like it's an insignificant matter now. the subjects were being discussed in a
reasonable manor and then the kids showed up to build a bandwagon

Hankys mistake was in trying to lighten up a situation with the pics,
unfortunately he had very poor timing and gave me no warning as to his intent
had he done that or chose a different time, it all would have turned out differently

I wasn't around when this all went down.

It just seems like a collosal misunderstanding. And then the children got up in arms about it, which sure didn't help.

I ride no coat tails, I assure you. I object to the harshness of Hanky's punishment. A permaban was certainly not warrented in this case. And it was just icing on the cake to me, considering all the other bans that have been handed down in recent times. Quite frankly, it seems to me that there are those who still object to OTD, and seem to be doing their damndest to neutralise it, if not eliminating it entirely. Keep it up. Perhaps the day will arrive when there's no one left to ban....

No, that's not what's the matter. Hanky obviously posts with content and thoughtfulness. The fact that this picture was "grounds" for his permaban is bullshit.

I don't give a fuck how things get sorted out here. I just see this as a bad call to permaban a guy who is actually a tremendous asset to our community and a person who stays within his OTD bounds.

I mean--you saw how he respected Pub rules when he was put in there for awhile. He's not a cunt like Super_Blunt.

This whole matter just reeks of wrong-headed, high-minded ideology and not the practical issue at hand.

For instance the chicken sex image.....

Get real. The OTD rules clearly say NOT TO post bestiality pictures.
He couldn't resist.

He didn't get the indefinite ban for posting this picture, he got it because he was banned several times before already.

And Oscar Wilde was cast out of polite society in his day for his worldview and moral leanings. Yet we celebrate his wit today.
And if you'd care to look at the tone and context of Hanky's postings (okay, aside from poo pics in the pub), you'd see there is a cleverness and thinking behind them that may not be immediately apparent.

All I'm saying is that, a chicken sex picture is SO ludicrous to stand as a justification for a permaban...there's a reason we say, "The straw that broke the camel's back." But, really, the shroomery has a stronger back than a pitiable camel; and chicken sex pics are digital--they weigh less than a shoot of straw.

The tomato seeds you sent me wont germinate, its been two weeks.

I covered them with just enough dirt to not see them, then a little more, and ive watered them everytime the surface gets dry. They are in nice soft potting soil.  :confused:

I think the ban list should be wiped clean and let OTD become the freedom of speech forum for the entire internet community....and then it will become so huge we will be able to change the world with mass movements and protests organized on the forum  :laugh:

They germinated here within 5 days at 25?C. If the temperature is lower, it might take longer.

Never let the soil, even the surface dry out when germinating seeds.

I read. 

I guess I misunderstood the value the administration places on banning for bad behavior and the cumulative effect of these bannings. 
It all strikes me as harmless mischief.  So many of our users come here and post not sober or giddy and post things that could be construed as poor taste....

And Hanky may have been stone-cold sober when he posted that pic.  I don't know.  It's irrelevant.  He would not have done it if he had thought it was going to bring this consequence.

I know that if I post shit pics in the Pub, I will get banned.

Hanky didn't expect this, and he didn't post that picture with the intention of pissing the mods or admins off.

The problem here is that OTD standards are enforced with an arbitrary--whimsical--code.  It changes all the time.  And arbitrary rule is Tyranny. 

C'mon.  This is clearly a bad call on the permaban. 

I respect the mods and admins here as they devote their free time to keeping this site up and running smoothly.  I simply see this as a sudden enforcement of stated "rules" in OTD on a particular member.  There is a disclaimer on OTD.  It's there for a reason.

I just have to respectfully, and vehemently, disagree with the admins on this one.  :shrug:

What does 25 Celsius translate in Fahrenheit? They are in full sun, but it does get cold at night, like 35-40f sometimes. Its been in the 60s here.

Okay, fine. What bothers me is the trend of increased bannings of established members. While I do agree with many of the rules (flaming in PA&L for example) the rules seem to be ever tightening, and I'm wondering if the time will come when someone is banned for expressing an opinion (in a civil way) that the powers-that-be don't like. Can we expect this? And if so, do let us know.....


Pris: I stand corrected then.

does 3 years of trolling give a person less banability than some one with 3 weeks
of helpfulness, should it matter if a person has been here for a long time
if that person is increasingly creating problems for new and old users alike
rules wouldnt become stricter if people were willing to control and take
responsibility for their own actions.

there are cries to get new blood into OTD because people are becoming afraid
to post, I hear the same thing from no0bs with 1 or 2 posts in OTD, moderating
is a reaction to an action, not the reverse, some shit has gone on far too long
and some people are pushing it well past the limits of fun, when a no0b is told
he needs to post in the pub because his skin isnt thick enough for OTD, there is a problem, it prevents a user from making use of the full potential of the board

Fine. I will devote myself to defending James Dobson as he has a right to speak his mind and desseminate his ideas, regardless how hateful or unfounded in corporeal reality that they are.

Super_Blunt was banned for a different reason than Hanky. They weren't the same type of poster, hence different treatment.

And of course I have bias. I have bias toward rationality and pragmatism.

Point taken. And yes, some do push the limits, to be sure, and they should be dealt with. But how far is too far? Now if I made a post in the Pub along the lines of "The Grateful Dead sucks dog balls", I would fully expect to be banned for that. But how about a posting like "I really don't care much for the Grateful Dead", should that also be a bannable offence?

And yes, there IS a lot of offensive material in OTD, but isn't that what it's purpose is? It does take a thick skin to stay in OTD, and there are just some who are too sensitive. This is the purpose of the Pub (or at least I assume it is). Not to state the obvious, but there are many more forums besides OTD and the Pub - these forums have much to offer. But if the goal is to make OTD another Pub, you might as well just get rid of OTD, as so many have advocated in the past.

And remember there are some people who are going to take offence at the slightest thing. Should we also cater to their every peccadillo? While I do admire you and your fellow admins efforts to try to make the 'Shroomery palatable to as wide a range of people as you can, you ain't gonna please everyone, no matter what you do.

By the way, (and to clarify) it's not just OTD I'm worried about - it's the 'Shroomery as a whole.


Okay, I'm done here. Thanks for listening!

Hard to tell.
If they haven't rotten, then they will germinte once it gets warmer.

It is a good idea to germinate them indoors.

It is important that they get strong light as soon the seedling comes out of the soil. The goal is to obtain stong, short plants.

Get real. The OTD rules clearly say NOT TO post bestiality pictures.
He couldn't resist.




He did not intentionally set out to break the rules. There was a reason he posted the pic - and it could have been any pic - what he thought was a funny pic - but upsetting mods and admins was not the reason. The intent was never malicious or provoking. It has nothing to do with not being able to resist etc. If he wanted to be malicious he would have just posted scat in the pub or a scat collage or something. I mean seriously - if he had of known it was an unallowed pic would he have posted it in a thread which Prisoner#1 was posting in quite a bit??. Lets think about that for a moment huh?

Quote:

He didn't get the indefinite ban for posting this picture, he got it because he was banned several times before already.





He has been posted several times for intentionally breaking the rules. This was a genuine and honest mistake. An easy one to make when you consider what is in OTD and what has been allowed etc. There are shock pics and scat pics and lots worse in OTD - you only need to know where to look.

so anno, are you at least considering setting a duration on hanky's "indefinate" ban?



also, you really should consider re-writing the banning policy to make permabans only for those who threaten safety or security of the site or its members. mild to moderate rules violators, even repeat offenders should work their way up to a month long ban and that should be the cap.

I mean, people will get the message if they lose posting for a whole month, and if they don't, that doesn't matter either, because we'll only see them once a month. :shrug:

Everyone seems to be arguing a moot point. What should be argued about is the policy of "3 strikes and you're out", not the fact that he was banned. I've said it before, and I'll say it again: repeat offenders of petty crimes should never receive a permaban. He did nothing to compromise the safety of the site. Leave the permabans to those who threaten violence or do thinkgs like solicit drugs.

The system is sound as it is. The rules are clearly displayed, the ban procedures are laid out.

I respect you anno, but that just seems to me unfair when you think about the severity of the punishment compared to the pettiness of the offense. So, I strongly disagree, and I hope that you might at some point re-consider this policy.

I'm just curious, since anno isn't the only admin here, what some of the other admins views on all of the things we have been discussing is. What do you other admins think individually?

As much as I'm completely on your side I think you're working against yourself a little bit here. You're asking for something in the now, which I'm totally behind, and now you're also asking for something on a grander scale. The power structure being as it is, this translates to you pushing it. Free Hanky, and work on whatever else later. An open call to admins here is going to most likely meet the same response it has in the past...a few admins chiming in to say they're sympathetic but that the powers-that-be make the decision. If you really want to make something of it then start PM'ing all the admins some sort of detailed suggestions on a ban system you think would work instead of vaguely referring to it as "this policy" because obviously there isn't always a clear "policy," it's more convoluted than that.

I see it like this. Hanky's current situation is a direct result of the policies that I am objecting to. Wouldn't it make sense to promote the change in policy nescessary to keep this whole thing from happening to anyone else later, as well as the unbanning of hanky now?

Otherwise, we'll just be here again in WA&F arguing for someone else's unbanning again in a month or two.

How many times has Hanky been banned for the same reason?

Why did nobody complain until now?

Like it or not, Admins can permaban anyone they wish... with Hanky, they permabanned him the way they should... by giving him longer, and longer bans... until a perma-ban was the only action remaining.

If a guy doesn't care about a 30 day ban, a 30 day ban serves no purpose... it has to be extended.

Hanky knew what was on the line when he posted the picture.

Hanky wasn't perma-banned for the picture alone, he was permabanned because he has a long HISTORY of ignoring the TOS of this website.

Is he a bad person? Not exactly... but he won't follow the TOS RULES he automatically agreed to... when he registered for this website.

I'd be more concerned if nothing happened.

It doesn't have to be an all or nothing thing, though.

Since his last long ban, he had been behaving very well. I doubt he posted that pic knowing he was going to be banned (let alone permabanned)

It's permaban is absurd anyways. All that it's going to achieve is him coming back with a new name. With almost every permaban, it always creates the same situation.

Yeah, that is true...

I doubt he expected to be banned forever... but after several OTHER bans for posting similar pics, the ban shouldn't have surprised him... the "Perma" may have come as a surprise.

Hanky was doing a bit better, but he did break THE SAME RULE AGAIN (like a month after his last ban lifted). He knew he was risking (at least) a 30 day ban... and he posted it anyway. I KNOW Hanky knew THIS rule better than some of the people coming to Hanky's defense know it.

As for him coming back under another name, if he does, I suppose that is fine, but his Hanky identity will need to die. Otherwise, if he wants people to know he was Hanky once, he should be banned again.

My gut feeling, Hanky's ban will be lifted in a month or two... but only if the Mob scene dies down a bit. The Admins worry about Mobs and Petitions, because if they listen to the Mob THIS TIME, the mob will be twice as loud NEXT TIME. Go figure... Admin logic.

I'm gonna' miss Hanky, but there aren't many people here, who have been banned as many times, for the same offense. The Shroomery simply can't have a member keep breaking the same rule w/o the option to perma-ban him.

That's not true. After he comes back, everyone will know it's him, and nothing will be done about it. It happens all the time in OTD, with established members who are permabanned.

I just find it foolish that the hammer cam down so hard on Hanky, yet when it was brought up about an established (but annoying) member trying to solicit drugs over pm, nothing was done about it.

I sorta' agree with you, but it was not my choice to Perma ban Hanky.

The Admin has cause to perma' ban him. They are being consistant w/ previous actions. They are being consistant with the TOS.

Yeah... people come back all the time (SHHHHHHHHHH!), and The Staff does look the other way often... USUALLY when the person was permabanned for silly reasons, like Hanky... or after they have had ample time off (like countless others). People only look the other way, when it isn't a problem. The Shroomery likes to give people as many 2nd chances as possible (but, keep breaking rules, and identity death eventually happens).

Make too much of a scene though, and there will need to be a universal NO PUPPET rule... or something.

I get confused with this thread's argument (not with you Red). People want their Hanky back, I get that... but why are people yelling about rules that aren't always enforced? Would you guys like those rules enforced MORE regularly? Hanky's bans have been legitimate... and came AFTER he broke rules. Yes, Mods look the other way sometimes... so what?

In OTD, Mods look the other way ALL THE TIME.

If we banned everyone who broke rules in OTD, the forum would be an unmoderated ghost town.

Of course, if we look the other way sometimes, people will cry, "Unfair!" when the rules ARE actually observed. This is nothing new.

So it is an ackward position for the Staff. Should we enforce MORE rules? We don't want to. We can't legally let people post whatever they want. We have to observe some rules.

OTD is hardly a Nazi state... there is STILL way more freedom in there, than in other Shroomery Forums.

If this mob keeps asking for a solution to this problem, I fear they won't like the solution.

p.s. I've never heard about a member being ALLOWED to continue pming for drugs. But sometimes things slip through the cracks. If someone did this, and was not banned, please notify an Admin. I'm sure they'll do something... ESPECIALLY if you have a copy of the PM.

I agree with you. I understand you needs a ban, and I also understand it was not up to the mods what punishment he got.

About the pm thing, I didn't get pm'd. What is ironic is that Hanky did. :lol:

I agree.

Actually, what is really ironic is that Geordi was pm'd, too. He, also is banned.

last time hanky got banned, he did it on purpose. He wanted a 30 day break, getting banned was his way of keeping himself away...

it shouldn't count as a regular ban vis-a-vis his permaban status...

this permaban action shows the futility and ultimate unfairness of three-strikes-and-you're-out type rules...

I move for a change of shroomery rules, that a one month ban should be the maximum punishment for the offense of posting inappropriate or offensive content. Repeated offenses should incur a one month ban, but never a permaban...

can i get a second on that?

so anno, are you at least considering setting a duration on hanky's "indefinate" ban?



also, you really should consider re-writing the banning policy to make permabans only for those who threaten safety or security of the site or its members. mild to moderate rules violators, even repeat offenders should work their way up to a month long ban and that should be the cap.

I mean, people will get the message if they lose posting for a whole month, and if they don't, that doesn't matter either, because we'll only see them once a month. :shrug:

I dont think a simple set of rules will cover ever instance of a banning offense. I think it should be up to the admin to consider such instances as they arise and make a decision based on the user's general post history. Using maybe a rough guideline to work out the severity of the punishment.

one of the first reasonable things said, but I think more than a post history should play a part, some people have plenty of posts but seem to care little about the community and are willing to give nothing back

good for him! fuckin' a man, he was trippin'!

it's so strange that a site dedicated to opening minds with the wonder of magic mushrooms and psychedelics would have such a closed-minded policy as to perma-ban members that do silly things while in thus altered states of mind.

I've never used tripping or being intoxicated as an excuse, I've dealt with cops
while on LSD on several occasions and managed to stay out of jail, I'm always
aware of what I do when I' tripping including on very large doses.

wow, now thats closed minded, this board has a more lienient policy on bans than
many, try going to forums.somethingawful.com and post, tell them you're drunk
and watch how quick you get banned, most boards have a 1 strike policy when it
comes to rule violations, they figure if you arent going to act like an adult
then they'll be rid of you until you can grow up.

But you can't compare the Shroomery to that site. That's like comparing 24k solid gold to rosin core solder.

This site deals with the mind, with magic mushrooms and psychedelia. It damnright should have the most enlightened policies on the net, since we have learned so much about peace, love, and brotherhood through our psychedelic experiences, we should stand out as a model of tolerance. I believe we have gone a long way towards these goals, but incredibly, we're somehow not there just yet. :shrug:

I can't figure it out, but somehow I know the reason must be money. What else could it be?

Hey jackass - do your research before you pontificate. Hanky has NEVER been banned for posting beastiality. He's been banned for posting scat in the pub most certainly - never ever beastiality. He did'nt expect to be banned over the chicken picture as he thought it was allowable in OTD. When you compare it to some of the other stuff which is allowed in OTD it is really quite mild. If you knew anything you would know that the quote where he quoted scat was somebody elses post and pretty much seen now as null and void. Duh.

Quote:

Hanky was doing a bit better, but he did break THE SAME RULE AGAIN (like a month after his last ban lifted). He knew he was risking (at least) a 30 day ban... and he posted it anyway. I KNOW Hanky knew THIS rule better than some of the people coming to Hanky's defense know it.





He did not break the same rule again He did not know he was risking any ban. If so he would not have posted it - especially after not long coming back from a 30 day ban. You don't know doodly squat about Hanky so your not really in any position to go on about what he did and didn't know and what he did and didn't think.

You rarely post in OTD and you know nothing of Hanky so this has next to nothing to do with you anyways.

Wern't you the one who was screaming against posting scat etc. in Anything Goes?

talkin' to you is like riding on a merry-go-round, and there is not enough freedom of posting to discuss this issue properly in WAF. If you like, you can come on back to OTD where I'm safe to tell you what i really think, and we can continue the discussion we've been having there tonight.

Before calling me a jackass again, and telling me to do my research, I suggest you do yours.

Scat and bestiality are covered in the same OTD Forum Rule.

OTD says:

? No posting of bestiality/scat pics/shock pics/underage nudity. -- A link to shock images is ok, with an appropriate warning, but underage nudity will not be tolerated under any circumstances.




And in The Pub...

Yes, scat and bestiality are different, but both offenses are covered by the same rule, in both forums.

And that is where your argument runs out of steam...

Its astounding to me that an individual goes into the Pub, posts an image that they 'know' is breaking the rules, then they get banned and people still complain about it, including the user.

I know thats a previous issue, but mentality of people sometimes just amazes me.

How about accountability by people, we don't want to be your mommy/daddy on the boards, but holy bejeebus sometimes people need a good smacking...  :grin:

Thats what a ban is, a good smack. Its not perma, so this would be a virtual smack you up.

Here's a video to express how stupid it is to complain about being banned  :grin: :grin:

after he said "You mean I can't reregister"? I was waitin' for somebody to say:

"Not without changing I.P. addresses, picking a different unique password, and registering with a different email address, that way you can completely duck the puppet check."

But he just said some shit about:

"No, you're in a "permabanned" status."

It's funny that they think that they can permaban "you", when they don't even know who "we" are. :lol:

You have to pay if you want to register at the SA forums. So in addition to what you wrote, you will also have to pay the registration fee under a different name.

I think everyone has had their oppertunity to speak their mind here.

The administration supports this ban, we feel this user has a history of intentionally disregarding rules and has been banned in the past.

We ban people on a basis of 1st offence, very short ban, 2nd offence short ban, 3rd offense long ban, 4th offense longer ban :wink:

As a rough guide mind you, we have more unique situations often than not.
