The Economics of Trolling, the SDMB, and Moderator Decisions.

Is there any particular reason, Jonathon Chance, Bone for foregoing warnings given the previous?

Anyway.

Hurricane Dikta has not, to my knowledge, engaged in anything other than bad-faith arguments for quite some time now. Whataboutism (for example this post.) Sealioning, all through that same thread. Through it all, he’s received a number of “don’t do this” cautions from the moderators, none of them resulting in actual warnings.

Hurricane Dikta has not changed his behavior, nor will he. His sole purpose on the Board is to “own da Libz” - or at least, try to. Every thread he participates in becomes a swamp of bad-faith arguments, diversions, all delivered with sneering contempt. The Board can be a place of insightful debate, but any thread that he participates in degenerates almost instantly, as he is not interested in debate. He is only interested in spite and disruption.

I will not engage with him anymore, and I suggest that every poster do the same - except, of course, for the moderators.
