Regardless, you had to ban him for 24 hours to begin with.

It's his JOB to ban people who flame others within the gentle confines of the Pub.

Does anyone else think it's funny that this thread was started here in WA&F, moved to the Pub, and then moved back to WA&F?

I didn't realize that it had been moved from here to The Pub in the first place. I should have moved it to the Poll forum. Maybe they want it.

Yes, but it is unnecessary to ban someone over such a minor infraction without telling them to cut it out. It sure would save a lot of trouble if that happened.

Well I'm sure that if members quit making a sport out of pushing the limits of Pub behavior, the mods who work there wouldn't feel like they were 'on duty' all the time and could just sit back and particpate happily.

Calling someone a bitch (without having any prior history of causing problems) is hardly a heinous crime warranting a ban. A quick comment to them asking them to behave properly would suffice.

I agree. Moderation can be subjective.

I honestly don't even remember this. I just went to the Mod forum and I didn't see any history of any discussion about Irradiated_Feces. I may have sent him a friendly warning before we documented it. I don't know how that turned into a week long ban, though.

the biggest crime I've seen committed on this site
is the repeated butchery of the word RIDICULOUS.

All I know is The Growery is a place where losers who get banned here go.

From what I hear, he's going to be allowed back anyways.



So the bans have no real meaning? Spineless at best.

I could very well be wrong about the Hanky thing. I just read that they're implementing a new ban system, and everyone is getting a clean slate.

oh no, no one is getting a clean slate as far as I know. just a new program to implement bans and keep track of them.
