Moderation Questions
The last iteration of the moderation discussion thread was a complete disaster. Numerous attempts to keep it on topic fa
Iβm not sure what youβre asking for, but Iβm the only one who can revoke the ban at this time, and itβs over when Mets has demonstrated what I have already said in this thread- that he understands what the rules are, how he is violating them, and understands now that it needs to stop. The requests are over.
yuck
I'm sure he'll be back. Wasn't that already like his 10th account or something? All those links he posted to old posts he claimed were supporting him (although they weren't lol) had him starting and posting in various threads under all different names.I checked out his twitter after he got banned. He posted a link to the ATF thread calling it the single most important thread in
oh you mean button, sorry, i dont know which of the pro-rake fascists banned him
hopefully just a temporary setback
The Shadow Cabal hath spoken about our friend Jbouton. His theories about low rake were just too dangerous to allow him to live.
Edit: Did I say live? I meant "keep posting."
technical question: how does this work if he's banned? can he still pm you despite the ban? is there some other mechanism in place for him (or anyone who's banned) to demonstrate any of this?
Typically, a permanent ban is meant to be permanent, but in this case, we have made numerous concessions for him as a long-standing member and often productive contributor to this community. He is welcome to send me a message through whatever channel he wishes- I know he has several friends here who are posters as well as several gimmick accounts that he uses- to discuss a pathway for him to return, but I will no longer be tolerating abusive and rude messages from him.
HERE.... is the reason for the "harsh" ban. Little time-outs have no effect on some people.Yes, rafiki, cn has been accused of exactly this.The I/P issue is one that has been going on for decades. It is unsolvable in the near future. rafikik, you know this by posting this:Wouldn't it be nice if LB's sentiment here could be intertwined in every response?Gentlemen, I agree wit
Hate to break it to you. This is how adults converse
i do think it was incredibly foolish to ban jbouton
he makes a thread about the mods silencing him and not letting him post
max comes in the thread and says "hey man go ahead and freely post"
same day thread is silently closed without any reason nor explanation given and he is banned
terrible look that will only serve to confirm his theory to him

fair enough.
beyond the particulars of this situation, is it reasonable then (in your view) for any banned poster to create a gimmick so they can ask about being moderated? or is this accommodation just for Mets in this one spot?
appreciate your efforts with all of this btw, fwiw

There is very little if anything that won't confirm his theory to him. He accused literally every single poster in that thread of being part of the conspiracy. It's not like he was all "oh, look, I can post freely, I must have been mistaken, no conspiracy here".
he didnt accuse me!
what can I say? I just know how to interact with people. I know how to win friends and influence.

Mets tells me that he has no gimmicks that he has access to and I am now currently his official representative with the outside world while he is locked up. Stand by for more.
First they came for the bigots, and I did not speak out—because I was not a bigot.
Then they came for the trolls, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trolls.
Then they came for the Mets and Fins fans, and I did not speak out—because those teams suck.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

Don't forget the ideal poker enthusiasts. Man, he was so close to blowing the whole online poker industry wide open when they came for him.

For the few days he had that thread all he did was talk about how he used to be censored and complaining about those telling him to go ahead and share what he wanted shared, but he never shared anything.
Many years ago, a poster in Puzzles and Other Games murdered a woman in an Asian country shortly after losing a game of “werewolf” on the forum. AMA
