Is that a documented and voted on rule? Or perhaps just an obvious best practice, like for instance, not allowing brand new accounts to vote?
Eh, it’s his second time requesting. He had his cool off already.
In my opinion posting normally after a request would rescind it.
I don’t know but it is how it was handled previously and I think that makes sense because a lot of things get said in the heat of serious internet business.

OK
This is actually his second such request.

That is not a request for a ban. Please overturn.

Maybe I missed the RFC where permaban requests don’t count if they’re directed at me? I punted to the other mods on the first one, but he seemed to be pretty serious about it by requesting it a second time.

There could be enough ambiguity there that it would be reasonable to ask for clarification.
I really dont think that banning admittedly overly combative posters for hyperbolic posts is the way to reduce the drama here… especially since there seems to be a two week cooling off period at minimum.
Fwiw. I think wookie has followed that.
Why are you always such a prick? Unprovoked as usual.
Sorry, in which of the two times he in no uncertain terms asked me to permaban him was I supposed to have discerned that it was not, in fact, a request for a permaban, and why I not allowed to find humor in your blatant reinterpretation of his posts? And again, he’s not even permabanned, he can come back in a couple weeks and say he was just ‘avin’ a laff, and then we can lol with him.
That last post of his looks more like he was daring you to punish him with a permaban for doing things you disapprove of.

Wrong again goofy boy. D2 self described to me as Russian. I respect his right to do that.
This is exactly the level of debate they should have more of on the floor of the US Senate.

d2 and I played many games of chess recently and chatted a lot.
One of the dwindling number of good things here is that people can and often do have multiple identities while being a UK citizen. They aren’t expected to relinquish their familial cultural history on a change of citizenship. Surely it can’t be any different in the US? I don’t expect you to understand this but I did expect you to pretend to.

Lol you’re being ridiculous again. If someone says to me “actually I’m Russian” I’m not going to contradict them even if the correct term would probably be British Russian.
Anyway I see you’re not interested in good faith arguments but only slander. Hope tomorrow’s a better day for you.
Even if we give him the benefit of the doubt, calling Wookie a Stalinist pig seems worthy of a ban. Add in his recent history of shit posting and while two weeks may be long, I don’t think it’s totally unwarranted.
