Sabo permaban confirmation

This.

Ok last post ever for me itt. Life is too short.

The thread below, which I had muted but I can now see it went on for a while without me, is a perfect example of how sabo drags the forum down. Bit by bit these kinds of threads erode the enjoyment of the forum and run off good posters. I will give him credit for actually trying to state a position here a few times, between the stream of insults. I had completely forgotten about this thread.

The thread began from a post I made in the LC thread, not directed at anyone, making fun of a failed libertopia in New Hampshire. I made one off-hand comment about how I thought alternative govt systems could be great for small communities but break down in large groups - precisely because of bad actors like in bear-topia. (This forum is becoming another example of how a few bad actors can wreck a small community imo.)

Sabo went on the attack, out of the blue and completely out-of-line compared to the tone and content of what I posted:

And then of course all hell broke loose and the LC thread descended into name-calling and rancor until it was excised to it’s own thread. Completely unnecessary. Instigated by Sabo, as usual.

Somehow I still manage to defend my points later in the thread without calling anyone ignorant or otherwise insulting them.

But it looks like once Sabo once again editing one of my posts in another thread to mischaracterize my meaning and make me look worse:

When I really said:

That’s some Andy Ngo-level propaganda BS there.

And ending with this condescending petulant post made long after I had left the thread, still pulling in posts of mine from other threads:

This repeated pattern of immature antagonistic behavior is a huge net negative to the community imo. Microbet and MysteryConman both manage to make their points in that thread in a completely non-offensive way. But it’s easy when your goal is to actually engage in discussion, as opposed to just pissing all over the forum to mark your territory.
