Why are people itt defending cumshitter? Didn't he threaten to doxx someone to their employer? That seems like unhinged behavior, and lol at saying he goaded into doing it.

Larry on the other hand got banned from the subforum for calling the mods "retards". You're a complete dunce if you equivocate the 2.

I'll give a slightly different perspective than Smythe on this.

First, it's important to acknowledge that there's effectively two kinds of permabans, single act and lifetime achievement. In single act, the person might otherwise be a fine poster but did something so beyond the pale that it was felt necessary to remove them from the community forever. This is stuff like pedo poo poo, doxxing, nazi poo poo, etc. In lifetime achievement, it's not that any single act that they did was so heinous it demands immediate removal but rather that they have a long term negative effect on the community that rises to such a level that they need to be removed AND talking, probes, bans, and community pressure have failed to make them a good enough poster to not warrant removal.

The critical question with applying a ban to a rereg of a permabanned account is whether we think they're going to engage in the behavior that got them permabanned in the first place. With single act, the thinking is generally that if they did something once, they can do it again and no one wants to wait around for that to happen, so they're removed immediately. This is pretty intuitive, if someone is outed as enjoying pedo parasite dick rape mpreg porn, no one wants to wait around for that to work its way into their posting even if all they're doing is posting anodyne takes on the stock market. With lifetime achievement folks, it does get a little more complicated because with the passage of time, people can and do change enough that they might be able to be trusted to not repeat the same patterns of behavior that got them in trouble in the first place.

This next part isn't official policy, and to be clear, I am just speaking for myself and how I would handle a hypothetical situation where this arose. If someone had a lifetime achievement perma and reregged and flew under the radar for a sufficiently long time that I didn't personally think they would repeat the bad behavior, I would take it to the admins and Jeffrey and see if they were willing to lift the perma. Every situation is going to be unique, so i'm not saying that the perma would necessarily be lifted mind you, but that would be how I would personally handle it.

I think the modding in the subforum is pretty good. Definitely agree with all the other people talking about clamping down on main character syndrome. Most people with that character trait don't really know when to stop.

The culture warriors thread isn't really funny, move it to GBS or PYF.

Larry should probably be freed to post here again or at least reevaluate the ban. It doesn't really make sense given the dog bricking arc and what happened with alec/cumshitter. You can probably ban the guy in the marxism thread who does ben shapirolike writings in response to people, and unban larry.

To be clear, while him being terminally aggro was a consideration, the forum ban was because he would post about how other posters should be killed. The forumban was the lenient option, with the alternative being a permaban. The forumban will not be lifted.

This seems like a bit of a stretch to me. If you didn't actively read the behind the bastards thread in RGD you would have never known he's a goon. Were there more instances of him saying that?

Re: cumshitter. The man hosed up and didn't even doxx me correctly--he (allegedly) emailed the wrong district. I can't apply to that school district for a job though (and they are hiring), because, again, he doxxed me but didn't do it correctly (he is, famously, stupid).

I miss you all. Give my best to DryGoods.

I mean, here is is posting a thread with a poll asking if Flavius should be killed: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?noseen=1&threadid=3976409&pagenumber=1&perpage=40#post516945071

I don't care enough to go digging for exact quotes about random people and not mods but I do remember that it was something he would wish on fellow posters from time to time. My memory, and it may be faulty, is that he switched over to doing weirdly elaborate things like "choke on a fishbone" because just wishing death on people he was arguing with was a bit over the line for his buds or maybe he just didn't want to eat probes/bans.

Regardless that's something that's always going to be cracked down on for the same reason that we edit out posts of people discussing killing themselves. Seeing poo poo like that can be genuinely triggering for people who struggle with suicidal ideation, to say nothing of telling someone who might privately be dealing with suicidal thoughts that by accident. It's a community protection thing.

And frankly it sucks because I like Larry as a poster and genuinely find him charming and funny, but he'd have to rein it in to have his perma lifted and if he could rein it in, he wouldn't be Larry.

I don't think that poll was good, and I absolutely agree that people should not tell each other to kill themselves, and in general tone down the bloodlust posting. The fishbone thing was something he said about Robert Evans, who you wouldn't know was a goon unless you visited the RGD thread.

It feels disingenuous to argue that it's going to trigger people when we have a thread called Guillotine.txt.

By the same standards shouldn't these 2 posts be punished? 1 for joking about harm inflicted on another poster, and the other for saying a public figure should be killed?

On the topic of bloodlust posting, sometimes the car thread turns in pyf favorite accidents and crashes. The thread is pretty solid overall but those kinds of posts are very gross.

You can just like things, you don't need to like them leftistly.

People in the new witchcraft thread talked about how there was a lot of POC magic, and proceeded to talk about nordic runes for the next couple of pages.
