He wasn’t on my radar either, but he drew so many warnings for insulting others and I’m not sure how many modnotes.

They didn’t care to follow the rules or just couldn’t from what I could see.

Seems they were on many Mods radar.

It does help me tidy up my “Ignore” list.

In the words of Senex: “A thousand thanks, whichever one of you did this.”

Mostly @Aspenglow, though they had drawn warnings from almost every mod iirc.

They did. They were on my radar, but I was surprised at how many violations there were when I dug into the record. We tried to guide their behavior in a more positive way over many years, but in the end, you can lead a horse to water…

That’s all that Kedikat got? I thought they’d been kicked into the mod loop thanks their latest stunt.

3 days is pretty normal, it’s their first suspension.

ETA: And it did go to the Modloop where I was verifying that a 3 day was the normal here and that I should issue said suspension.

Any suspension over 1 day for not-new users is discussed in the modloop. When the crap happens on a weekend, that 1 day often gets an extra day or even 2 as it can take a bit to reach a consensus. Though this is usually for situation where the question is the length or suspension or is it time to ban.

If the question is a short suspension or no suspension, generally keep to just the single one day suspension.

I new poster **Everlong88** is tripping my early troll warning radar. It seems to have slid into threads like a well fitting glove sock. Nothing obviously against the rules that I’ve seen, but bringing up for greater awareness.

The posting style pings the radar, the 88 sets off a klaxon.

I guess we might expect resurgence of right-wing trolls now that their Enabler-in-Chief is on the rise. Quite possibly trockish trolls.

Keep your eyes peeled.

**wrenching\_spanners** got moderated a few days ago in a P&E thread for hijacking, and then argued the moderation. Subsequent to that, he posted in ATMB about how to be banned from a thread (though it seems like he meant “banned from a category/forum”), as he stated that he gets into trouble in P&E, but wants to be able to keep posting in FQ.

He was, _as per his own request_, banned from P&E by the moderators an hour or two ago – a banning which was accompanied by a suggestion that he might consider muting the topic, to avoid temptation. He then made a post in the Omnibus Elections thread in P&E anyway, earning himself a warning for it.

Wow.
