Moderation Questions
The last iteration of the moderation discussion thread was a complete disaster. Numerous attempts to keep it on topic fa
Which snowflakes do you think got extreme right winger Luciom banned?
Btw, Victor was the biggest crybaby I have ever seen in this forum when I called him a mean word.
Btw are Luciom and Victor, gone gone?
Not just temp'd?
I find this hard to believe
People are worried about a month for Victor?
After the millionth infraction, a month is cake here. He'll be back to his old tricks in no time. A month is running very very good.
It's a month because one of our moderators decided that he deserved it, even though he can't point to any specific post that Victor made. That's not something that anyone should be ok with.
Lmao you right wing snowflakes really got Victor banned because your fragile pathetic minds couldn't handle someone calling you out?'Wahhh mom this guy is calling me mean words just because I said I love genocide, please ban him'Never underestimate the sheer patheticness of right wingers. Anyway have fun with your little pro genocide eco chamber, just know that everyone else th
Luciom went to his room for 24 hours because he bragged about his love for bending rules as an Italian, and then proceeded to bend the personal attacks rule in a not so clever way. He also the same day had advocated for "unlimited violence". After checking his user notes, I decided a short timeout would be beneficial for him and others.
Can we leverage EU law somehow to forcefully reveal everyone's user notes?
Euros: do your thing.
But what world view takes the way a person posts on an internet forum, and decides what his family and friends in another country are like? I can understand perhaps making assumptions about something like parents or a spouse. But that's a pretty mighty sized leap to take otherwise. Between every friend, business associate, and family member in NYC, I never had one come to me wi
Like I said, different worlds. Not one I knew wanted blood and I’m born and raised there. It doesn’t take much sophistication to understand that throwing rocks at a hornets nest might get you stung, regardless of any justification.
being a victim gives you the complete moral justification to do absolutely anything to completely destroy your opponent with no recourse, in my model. unlimited violence as a victim is fully justified at any cost until you fully guarantee your enemy is completely destroyed (every single one of them is dead). that's my ethos.
you touch me, you are dead
That’s all well and good but this is exactly the logic of terrorists. You don’t have any grounds for moral outrage if this is your logic.

You didn't address my comments about him breaking the rules nearly every single day. Do you disagree that he has done that? I could point to hundreds of specific posts if it were necessary.

Victor was banned multiple times during Browser's reign and you're acting like he was completely unmoderated prior to now.
He has never gone a day without deliberately breaking the rules, any of which should have been enough to ban him given his history. Why is there a need to wait for the single over the top post? IMO one 10/10 out of line post isn't nearly as bad as many 7/10 bad posts every single day.
Because of posts like this:

I mean, of course we don't have to live in LuckboxWorld where apparently moderation action is only acceptable if there's one specific post it's based on. Just the same, taking the "lifetime achievement" approach can be contentious at times, even when it is warranted. That's the difficult thing about posters who constantly dance around the line of what is likely to get them banned, and what to do with them. But at some point, moderators decide enough is enough.

Ah, a history of getting banned, you say? Hmm, I wonder if there's any possibility that could have been a factor here?
If you want to make a case that Victor's constant use of rhetoric, attacks, etc. should be tolerated, go for it. Maybe you think his positives outweigh his negatives. Or that he's no worse than others who are permitted to continue. Or that we should be fine with the worst of his rhetoric. While I may not agree, I can at least understand those arguments. But this whole 'you can't show us a post that got him banned...gotcha!' and 'a mod said he was waiting for a post to ban him for...gotcha!' nonsense is a waste of time.
And to be perfectly clear, those last two quotes aren't actual quotes, but my own summaries of sentiments I saw being expressed.

this is obvious, yes

we get it, the mods hate him and that's all there is to it. unlike all these other clowns around here...
a month is ridiculous when everyone else gets a slap on the wrist, at worst

Did you notice that everyone else (correctly) thinks that Victor has gotten away with more rule breaking than any other poster in the forum? I figured that the mods must love him.
Maybe just don't be a war loving monster and then no one has to worry about Victor? I feel like that should be considered.
If you mean that those things are true, I suspect you'd get some disagreement on that. If you mean it's obvious that Luckbox believes that, I'm not so sure; I don't think he's really given an opinion.
Past history would show that to be untrue. If the mods truly hated him enough to ban him for it, he'd have had much worse much sooner.

Of this, I couldn't be a fair judge, as I don't read the threads he seems to have the most involvement in.
I mean this honestly. What would Jesus say? Would he say Victor is wrong for sticking up for the victims of war? Or would he say you guys are wrong for silencing him? Or would he say Victor is in the wrong?

Maybe you could show us an example of this rule breaking?
All we hear is rule breaking!
Show us and then we could talk about it... but since you guys have been asked to show us many times for days and you never showed us anything. U probably got nothing.
You been asked for days now.
WTF???
