Is that what Neil Parish was watching?

411

I’m not sure who and how many “they” is, but it turns out that it was true!

412

So we’re good to unban everyone?

Everyone but Inso0, Will (the first user to request a self ban who resorted to posting horse porn to get his way), and others who have requested self bans is currently unbanned and unsilenced.

414

It would be unfortunate if someone (not necessarily will) requested a self ban perma because they were unable to leave the forum for whatever reason, then found an email saying they’d been unbanned.

Is that a possibility?

415

No because I didn’t unban anyone, just checked the list of suspended accounts and noted the few that weren’t spambots, trolls, or gimmicks.

Proposal:

  • All permanently banned or silenced users shall have their original user name reinstated upon request. Or they may choose to come back under a new user name with no penalty. They will not be required to link their old and new identities.

  • Except for obvious spam accounts, no user shall be permanently banned until the forum passes rules governing permanent bans.

@spidercrab this thread has been open for more than three days. I request a poll for approval of the wording of this proposal in keeping with RFC procedure.

After an RFC thread has been open for at least 3 full days , any user can request a Forum Administrator to create a poll within the RFC thread to approve the wording for the proposal. Upon receipt of such request, a Forum Administrator shall use the Administrative Account to create a public poll stating the proposed wording of the rule with the choices of “Yes” or “No.” The poll shall remain open for a period of one week . If the poll receives support from a majority of voters , the proposal will proceed to a binding rule vote. Otherwise, debate on the proposal may continue and any user can again request a vote on wording within the RFC thread.

417

Just jumping in to point out that a similar request has been made in the “Permaban Sabo?” RFC, and that a poll should be opened by an admin in both of these threads.

[Sorry, lost track of this. ]

Please vote to approve (or not) the wording of the following proposed rule:

Proposed rule:

  • All permanently banned or silenced users shall have their original user name reinstated upon request. Or they may choose to come back under a new user name with no penalty. They will not be required to link their old and new identities.

  • Except for obvious spam accounts, no user shall be permanently banned until the forum passes rules governing permanent bans.

Do you approve of the wording for this proposed rule?
  • Yes
  • No

0 voters

Poll closes 6/24/2022. If a majority votes in favor of the wording, the proposed rule will be put to a forum-wide vote.

419

Voted no because those should be two separate rules.
