I think it wasn’t even explaining something being the same as condoning it, it was being able to explain something that was the same as condoning it.

Neither of these posts needed to be 24 hour probations, or probations at all. If there's something rhetorically objectionable about them then they can be responded to with another post, rather than shutting them out of the discussion for an entire day. Moderators should be moderators to discussion, not referees throwing people in the penalty box. Many people have pointed out this problem - that D&D mods are way too quick to use their buttons in discussions like these, and it comes across as the mods wanting to get their point in without letting the other person respond. Probations should be for when someone is being obviously obnoxious or offensive, or actual rule breaking, not just "didn't phrase your argument correctly". It's especially noticeable in this thread which already has a history of questionable mod actions.

And yes, for the record, explaining the process of an unjust system can be seen as tacit support for that injustice. Discuss that instead of probating people.


Truly stunning.

edit: lol saw this gem

When your brain is so far gone that you think explaining equals supporting, you probably don't have any concept of shame left.

"tacit support" is one of those phrases where you see it and know the person is about to say either something extremely insightful or something hilariously deluded

Lots of people just don't take the hint to rereg and live anonymously on the forums again. eg. not only is Flavius Aetass not banned for their involvement in many horrible awful moderation sagas including chipmunk porn, they reregged after an autoban and still actively post.

*tears of pure joy* thank you again

this is one of the funniest threads i've ever read.

inbetween some guy going all Mr Robot on his neighbors you have people egging him on and then furious posts like this

DJ-Pyro posted:

Honestly, you are one of the dumbest individuals I've ever had the displeasure of coming across. You're going to commit felony destruction of propery (not to mention tampering with a public utility) and risk the lives of people you're coming in contact with over a stupid cable connection? You don't have all of the facts and it's not your job to enforce this. What if the line is a temporary drop and the only reason the cable installer told you what he did was to shut you up. I can't count the number of times I've been lied to by the cable installer/telco guys to save their asses over something that they know is their fault.

I really hope you get caught or end up burning down the guy's house. If I were in the position and found out that you did that to my stuff, legal cable connection or not, I'd be sure to have the cops busted over something like this and file a nice little law suit.

Shame on you and shame on all the other goons who are egging him on

Yeah. When I first saw this I had not played the game. It's now perfect - like the artist went out of the way to put 'Dusa in there for no reason at all. It's great.

I nerded out heavily in the PYF games thread about it. I will refrain from doing so here but it's the first game in a long time that I've 100%-ed.
