\*\*Carol Stream \*\*has requested reconsideration of a few recent moderation decisions (well, \*\*Carol Stream \*\*has actually requested reconsideration of most of the moderation decisions I’ve made). In our review of \*\*Carol’\*\*s posting history, we determined that \*\*Carol \*\*has consistently acted like a jerk who was trolling in the mini-rants thread after reporting another poster for trolling in that thread. Evidence of \*\*Carol Stream’s \*\*posting history suggests that \*\*Carol Stream \*\*has been trolling and making frivolous complaints out of spite.

Thus, the result of our reconsideration is that we’ve decided to permanently ban \*\*Carol Stream \*\*from the Straight Dope Message Board. A word to the wise: Be careful what you wish for.

Happy holidays to all.

Here are some recent warnings and Moderator Notes:

\*\*Carol Stream \*\*also had a few older warnings, which we didn’t consider, but do further support our decision:
