@Roger_That has been banned for 6 Warnings in 16 months and a 1 week suspension. This is quite the achievement. Warnings from 4 different mods. He has been disagreeable from the start and very much a problematic poster and shows no signs of improving.
This was the final straw following his fairly recent suspension. July 13th by engineer_comp_geek
Trolling post here:
I don’t want to get into what constitutes “properly” just now (there are those who believe that every pronunciation and usage that a native speaker employs is by definition a correct one) but there are newscasters whose acquaintance with the rudiments of the English language is at best middling. I just heard a young woman employed by MSNBC repeatedly pronouncing “nuclear” NOOK-ya-lar–I hear such manglings every day, semi-literate talking heads struggling to pronounce words that they have obvious…
Jr. Modding here:
I’m looking, as clearly stated, to ask why people think that newscasters who are only moderately skilled at pronouncing and using English are hired and renewed by the networks.
I specifically asked if we could discuss this outside of the discussion of what is and isn’t “proper” pronunciation and usage, as that is a whole separate and unpleasant conversation. If you can’t grant my premise that such a thing exists, you are hijacking this thread.
Warning here:
Warning: And this is called Junior Modding and not allowed.
You do not control your thread. Especially one that is poorly constructed to start with. If you have a problem with what posters posted, flag the post.
But as this thread is a good example of a trollish thread and you have a very poor history. I’m suspended you for 2 days* for trolling and will be discussing your posting privileges in the Modloop.
This will be warning number 6 in the last 16 months. Along with a suspension already.

Prior Warnings :
Moderator Warning
This is an official warning for personal insults outside of the Pit.
This is not your first warning for personal insults. You need to understand that you cannot insult other users unless you are in the BBQ Pit forum.

I’d say that claiming everyone else in the thread is sucking Vince Gilligan’s dick constitutes a personal attack, so this will be a Warning. It’ll also be a thread ban: Do not return to this thread, or there will be further consequences.
Everyone else, please do not engage any further with @Roger_That 's posts in this thread, as he will not be able to respond.
This is an official warning for gratuitous use of graphic sexual imagery which qualifies as uncivil discourse in our book. Do not post remarks like this again or you’ll be subject to suspension or banning.
It seems pretty misogynistic or at least unfriendly to well actually almost every other poster. Rape fantasies are generally not condoned on the SDMB.
To make it clear and from our rules, If we tell you to refrain from behavior we regard as uncivil, or that in our view detracts from producti…
Moderating:
This is a formal Warning for disregarding earlier moderator instructions to stop gratuitously insulting everyone in this thread who have offered their opinions to you about the meaning of the phrase “Partner in Crime.”
Further, I think this thread has run its course and reached the stage of little more than an exchange of personal insults. I’m therefore closing this thread.
Official warning issued to Roger_That for insulting another poster outside of the Pit.
