From my perspective of timeline: I complimented her avatar and then she was immediately banned for something she said in USPol the other day. But it's looking like a 30 day probation on her avatar. And the 30 day probation came after the ban? I don't know what's going on. :ghost:

Holy poo poo....I just went through TBs rap sheet and read most of the pages where she was probed and what a rollercoaster ride. I can't figure out if popping in and starting fights (she really likes condescending remarks about "small words" in particular) is her gimmick or maybe mental illness. Maybe she'll spend her time away from SA and get the help she needs if she's not already on a campus corner screeching small words through a megaphone calling for the death of all men.

Get bashed, platonist!

One time in fhe historical facts thread, TB and someone else were debating whether or not a history thing was accurate, and TB started insulting them. Something about them having a big butt? It was really weird. Other than that she seems nice though, and has a way of making bad people angry, so I’m sad that she is gone for 30 days.

What difference does it make? At some point as a mod you need to take people as they are, rather than who they might have been, otherwise you're just going to be encouraging decades-long grudge matches than can kill a forum for, you know, everybody else who wants to participate.

After TB has admitted it a couple times, made references to old slashie grudges more times, and generally acts like slashie does, it is up to you to make that decision.

It's 100,000 hours. It's funny to think that there are people who got that who could come back and post at this point.

I've never interacted with TB. I do remember having read some of her posts - or, to be more specific, streaks of posts, when she decided to enter a thread with a lawn chair and a bullhorn - and I remember thinking something to the effect of "if I met this person at a party, I would want to be as far as possible from them, even if it meant standing in a broom closet or bathtub."

I have gathered the impression that she build up some goodwill with some posters here, which, fine, okay, not everyone is to everyone's taste, but I also gathered the impression that she went through the garbage cans of middle schools collecting discarded "kick me" signs to fashion a three-piece suit out of for the express purpose of doing a slow and tantalizing dance in front of mods she knew extremely well in advance were inclined to take her up on that offer.

She posts in a thread about interior design where she acts normal, but every time she steps outside of it, she imemdiately eats a hard ban for harassing somebody.

I don't read or post in D&D. Do you personally feel like she harasses people, above and beyond this forum's tradition of ribbing people when they stick their asses out, etc.?

Well, good natured ribbing generally ends well short of telling people to kill themselves.

I agree. If "kill yourself" is your best joke/comeback, you're either (if you're being sincere) a genuinely lovely human being or (if you're not) being incredibly lazy.

I mean, she's mentioned that she is numerous times and forgotten. It's so dumb that it's now supposed to be an insult. What's wrong with being slashie anyways? What terrible thing did slashie do? Well, she ... started slapfights by calling people bigoted/misogynist. As opposed to TB. (Who once called me racist for not liking the movie review opinions of a critic named "Armond White" because, obviously, he's black.)

But no one likes Armond White's contrarian opinions on movies.

e: I haven't read an Armond White review in years but I remember his basic schtick being "actually (bad movie) is GOOD" so I guess I could see what some goons would appreciate him. The same goes for the posters white-knighting TB

Armond White is basically SuperMechaGodzilla of "legitimate" reviews, he called Transformers a masterpiece of satire and digital cinematography.
