Random (4)
@Guest
@AModTooFar
@BadFaithDetector
@JustJeanine
Suspending @cassette one week for his trolling efforts via the RonFromPhoenix account. We don’t know exactly when he logged into it and who posted what from it, but we know that cassette and @forechecker both used that account, which was entirely a trolling account.
I have changed the suspention to 7 days for calling another member a Nazi. That is a federal offense where I’m from and I take personal offense at any attempt to belittle the holocaust. Next such offense will result in longer bans.
I closed the Allegations Regarding Prior Admin’s Breach of Privacy (How to Check if Your PMs Were Read) thread and moved it to the Staff forum for preservation after receiving a request to do so.
Any future posts referencing the thread or the allegations regarding prior admins contained therein will be deleted as soon as they’re brought to the attention of forum staff.
Reminder
Banned the realrealrealestjmakin account for circumventing a ban
Banned Bruce something for making a murder/suicide joke about someones child being hospitalized. My first ban ever and I likely won’t be making another.
AngryQueer’s trust level set to 0 to prevent them from harrassing others via PM.
Note that AQ’s avatar is also referencing the $90
Both reverted to level 2.
DrModern suspended for two weeks for a horrendous post that has been deleted.
Permanently banned @audit_the_audit per his previous agreement to get his $90 in donations refunded.
Wouldn’t you know it the silencing ended and Scylvendi (aka kelhus) went right back to his old tricks.
Permanently suspended, have fun over at Breitbart or wherever.
Banned @BusinessGenius and @6ixFromTheRiverStyx for a week for having no constructive purpose to their actions other than creating dissent within the community.
Troll somewhere else.
