The posters involved should not even make a difference. That is the disconnect.
PocketChads made a ban in good faith because he thought that is what the community wanted.
When other mods make a ban in good faith the people complaining about chads decision are the first to attack anyone who questions the decisions of the other mods.
The lack of self awareness or self reflection is disappointing.
There is a difference between calling a ban āsilly,ā and stalking a mod and accusing them of being biased. As far as I can tell, nobody has attacked Chads, just the ban. You are false equivocating.
Iām open to being wrong. If the first questionable ban Wookiee made that led to this feud resulted in what you are describing I will bow out of this debate.
Itās not obvious that Iām Jbro? And Iām pretty sure there have been dumber gimmick accounts. But I canāt think of any right now, so perhaps not.
So the hill you decided to undie on after ragequitting the forum months ago is fighting about the justness of a 1 day ban of noted dastardly poster checks notes@Riverman?
I didnāt ragequit anything, and I think the ban of Riverman was a poor decision, so try again?
(Totally unrelated to what I think of the ban, Riverman is one of my favorite posters. In that second tier behind micro who stands alone at the top of my list of favorite posters and Presidential candidates.)
Without stepping on any toes, can I say: a) please come back Jbro b) donāt make it harder for him to come back than you have to jman. Canāt we all just try to do some adulting and not participate in the cycle of callouts/grievances even if we happen to be justly (although itās just the internet) aggrieved? Thatās the only solution to this.
Serious questionā¦ If youāre going to be posting again (and you seem to be based upon your post in the covid thread)ā¦ why not just have your actual account unbanned and post from there?
I didnāt want to bug micro today to ask him to bug jmakin, and I felt like making a post. Plus asking for my account back seemed kind of weak and sniveling versus just registering again with a name that was obviously me.
