> [@Ferret\_Herder](#): > > Do we know that and/or did I miss an explanation somewhere? You can be a raging asshole and get banned for that without having to be a liar too. Same question - is there some kind of explanation? Or should I PM a mod? And if I PM’ed a mod, would they even tell me? And if you PM a mod and they don’t answer, does anyone even HEAR IT? This is getting so confusing around here lately. Between umkay, Diamonds, cynyc and the rest of the oddness, I’m starting to get aTo thank headache just logging in anymore. ETA Thanks for the explanation, Magiver. ---

I figured something was amiss. This thread went from, this should be interesting to really ? In only a couple of posts. At one point I really felt like chiming in and asking why if she was in such dire straits. Why she would think taking zoloft and beer was the best way to deal with her life. But decided against it. ---

Yeah, I saw the “hebe/heil” threads - mine was the second post in the “is ‘hebe’ a slur?” followup thread. I was just wondering why that automatically means the poster was a troll in addition to being a jerk. My assumption in this thread was just that she was a trainwreck. ---

Why she would think taking zoloft and beer was the best way to deal with her life. But decided against it. This would have been easier to to spot if we heard the person talking. There would be more nuances to pick up on. I thought the ops writing was… odd… but writing skills are not a prerequisite to post. ---

> [@WhyNot](#): > > True. Just in case she really is an honest nut case…I really do wish her peace and healing. Ultimately all trolls or infact malevolent persons in any capacity are a nut case in certain ways. I am convinced that there is no one who is intentionally evil. ---
