Someone should have told you before your multiple posts about the matter.

It's weird how that GBS thread and this thread are full of "WELL gently caress THOSE RACISTS!!!!" when people complain about that crazy person's hitlist, and you handwave away someone on the list who didn't do anything but call KM a bad mod.

uhh

I made 1 post in the last 2 pages directly referencing it and it was making fun of, among other things, people like you who have absolutely zero investment in that subforum and yet here you are bitching about how a mod of a subforum you've never even posted in is mad that you called them a lovely moderator

it's like writing a scathing review for a restaurant you've never been to and then acting surprised when you actually go there and they ask you to leave

Just make another QCS thread about it if you're so buttmad about it, those always go so well

Is there a story behind getting a permaban revoked, or are you simply not whoever the permabanned guy referred from your rap sheet is?

I get mad at the internet a lot and was pushing FAU's buttons pretty hard over the closure of GBS not making sense until he permabanned me. Other people talked him down to a regular ban since all I was doing was rules lawyering and went from 0 to permaban without a probation or anything. It's an even bigger waste of time to talk about than the crazy teenager powertripping over a subforum of a subforum on the world's deadest and gayest internet forums.

I call Jeffery of YOSPOS a jerk sometimes. The noted difference here is they don't forbid me from posting in their personal spheres of influence with crazyperson hitlists because they are adults and have a modicum of rationality when dealing with people who get mad at the internet, without actually becoming one of the worst ones of them.

Any stories about people being on "hellbans" or 100,000 hour probations and actually coming back from those? I'm not sure if enough time has passed in the case of the latter, but for years figured there has to be someone salty enough to come and post (and immediately be perma'd after).

I believe a 100,000 hour probation expired in the past 2-3 months, I just can't remember who or which thread mentioned it.

It's amazing because it's the first thing in years that reminds me of "old GBS" where lurking was encouraged and it was on the poster to be aware if they were under some sudden "you can't post here" rule or catching on to if a thread was a honeypot.

Aaannnd thread is archived. My bet is he asked a mod it be closed because he's in legal trouble. Too bad, his last post was revealing his side of the story wasn't quite what he claimed.

nah IMO the cleverest KM punishment is pre-emptively adding a terrible poster to a "do not post in this tiny, ultra-specific subforum" and watching them melt down over an exclusion that has absolutely zero bearing on them whatsoever

But that's terrible, and they should take it personally because it is personal to them. The subforum is openly biased and they aren't even allowed a fair chance to post and show their worth. They're only asking for the same opportunities KM would give to her own crew. Obviously she has had some bad experiences with shitposters and pol trolls, but its like she sweepingly defines a whole lesser class of goon that is not even given a chance to make funny or intelligent posts, judged solely by their forum of origin or the user name they registered with. Being able to post in GRS should be a Lowtax-given right but its become a privilege denied to many.

It's really unfair. They should be angry, they can't even LMAO without getting probated because the mods, who should be impartial, are biased against them. The Lepers Colony is full of GBS posters and the ones complaining are showing real bravery by making their voice heard above the "progressive" lynch mob even though it will probably get their posts sent to the Gas Chambered.

also KM is female so its because she's a hysterical bitch

I really dislike the train of thought that if you make fun of the list or are confused by it you are a bad person or whatever is happening here.

no other mod has required this. If the Star Citizen forum or GBS or a hypothetical Trumpposter Containment forum did a list like this it would be okay to make fun of it without someone saying "you're so mad :haw:" or "nice meltdown". Using the same logic even. All that would change is the unspoken assumption of whether the forum is a good forum or a bad forum.

And it is crazy. It's circular reasoning, that there's a list of banned posters some of whom never posted anything bad there or even posted in a politics forum and if you don't understand why you're on it even if you have no desire to post there, well then you must be a bad person who's mad about being included in the forum or something.

I'm not even convinced the list is of "bad posters". Neuroliminal is on the list, I've seen some of his interactions with the posters and it has always looked like they were just bullying him for not being part of their in-crowd.

I just find the idea that the forum is objectively good and you cannot question them or anything the mod does because they're on the progressive side and there is only ONE way to do that and you MUST agree with it... I don't like it. I'm not convinced the forum is achieving anything positive.

Lol yes, Neuroliminal is certainly an example of a good-faith argument poster who wasn't repeatedly asked/warned by KM to stop being a disrespectful dickhead, and hasn't been probated/banned 44 times by half the mods/admins on the forums for being an aggressively terrible poster

I think it is possible to post in all of the forums if you are capable of the incredible tightrope-walking feat of being able to occasional tell or simply spot a joke on one hand, and on the other hand not be hateful towards people.

Anyway, remember that time that VorpalBunny was macking on AcidRain for months and it turned out she was a giant fat lady rather than a sexy Brazilian model? Also when Fistgrrl's crazy ex boyfriend started hassling random posters on the forum? Good times. #2001agoonodyssey.

if by "best examples" you mean "the first 3 probations I clicked on from a list of 44" then sure, why not

but no, you're right, a post where a mod asks someone to follow the rules then probates that person for mod sass back, and a post where the same mod tells the same person to stop posting because they've been warned and probated for the exact same thing in the past is clearly an angry vendetta and not just a mod following through on keeping obviously white-noise/bad-faith argument idiots out
