Why’d **nonpolar **get banned?
Dudes ,i signed up on different alais’s and brokered the rules ,man .
what was the alias?
I mean, was this explained anywhere? curious.
no matches.
I vote that she smacks him with the (cool) iron, but EddyTeddyFreddy is the boss.
That was just a list of every single post he’s ever made. It might work if you do it, but I think he just made too many jerk posts. This comes to mind.
I did that; couldn’t find a smoking gun.
Pathetic, really.
Every day, intelligent and articulate posters are banned from message boards simply for expressing views that are different from those authorized by the administrators, and you’re worried about why a pathetic jerk like nonpolar got banned?
Get some perspective, man.
OK, that wasn’t very good, but I’ve been looking for an excuse to do that.
I don’t think it was any one specific post, although his remarks in the originally referenced thread were probably the catalyst. I think it was more the totality of his posting pattern, i.e., he was pretty consistently being a jerk. The comments in ETF’s thread were just the point where someone finally piped up and asked, “How long are we putting up with this shit, anyway?”
Well, totality doesn’t cut it, I think. He was warned specifically, and I’m just curious what post was the last straw.
Well, since he was told his posting priveleges were under review in the thread that spawned this one, I’d guess that post was the straw that broke the camel’s back.
Well, his last post in that thread wat this:
Again, this doesn’t seem like a smoking gun, especially since there’s no mod followup to this post.
You mean this lack of mod follow-up?
link?
Post #22 in this thread.
Yes, but nothing after that was bannable, IMO. Doesn’t “knock it off” imply an expectation of future behavior? If his fate was sealed, what’s the point of “knock it off”?
Seems to me, if a mod/admin says one’s posting privileges are under discussion, that implies that one outcome could be banning with no further offenses required.
In the face of that warning, nonpolar only two hours later starts this thread in MPSIMS.
Given nonpolar’s history on this board, I don’t find its banning surprising in the least. YM, as always, MV.
Ooh, while I’m thinking about it, ETF, have you considered having Nick cremated if he passes at his boarding facility? It would probably cost a bit, but I don’t know that it would be much more expensive than having a backhoe dig a grave for him.
