There are circumstances to this. The WWI thread should have been the last straw but we agreed he was baited into that and a long message was sent to him about how close to the end of his posting privileges he was.

Along with many modnotes was @Aspenglow’s notes on September 7th & 11th, where she reminded everyone that this topic was limited to actual candidates for 2028. He was specifically mentioned in both.

> Moderating: Drop it, all of you. Yet again, you are relitigating old issues about politicians who are not frontrunners for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2028. No more.

> Moderating: These are all hijacks from the topic at hand. @DrDeth, you seem to be on a hijacking kick again lately. Next one gets a warning. All, please get back to the topic. Donald Trump has nothing to do with which Democrats are running for the presidential nomination in 2028.

He has 353 posts in that thread and has seen the numerous modnotes. 15 mod notes in the thread.

So no, the Biden bit is too much. He just recently was reminded twice, **responding to something off-topic is not staying on topic.**

Big picture, noone has been given so many chances and 2 30 day suspensions.

He does not learn.

The WWI thread:

> [@Resolved: Germany was the aggressor against France in WWI](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/resolved-germany-was-the-aggressor-against-france-in-wwi/1033000/104):

> Moderating: Enough of this crap. You are effectively calling other posters liars. Your behavior in the thread is bordering on trollish. The thread was started to elicit your replies, so I am going to shut it down. I’m going to see if any other Mods think more need to be done, but I doubt it.

Where oddly enough I argued against him being banned for a thread that pretty much baited him.

So we gave him yet one more, one last chance.
