I missed it too; I just realized one day I hadn't read "secession, anyone" or "statist pig" for a while. I'm thinking it was a quiet application of the ban hammer. And probably not specifically for the content of any given post (he would have been banned long before now if it were for rules violation).

My understanding is that the banhammer was brought out due to constant "trolling" and not actually contributing anything to the site.

I guess "contributing" is discretionary then.

 

[GBuck]

Well I think the "trolling" ie constantly bringing up secession after multiple warnings.

It's certainly in the eye of the beholder

So now we have a contributing standard... dang the quality posts was bad enough.

I think your thinking is wrong. You abuse the word troll and don't have a good grasp on what it means.

Since the person is no longer here, perhaps GBuck's understanding of the meaning is more in line with the Moderators than yours is.

The mods on here...

Gbuck labeled me a troll simply because he disagreed with my position in another thread and was completely unwarranted.

Actually my position had nothing to do with why the word troll was used.

That's exactly right, it is when you disagree with other's positions and use liberal tactics, such as name calling as an attempt to discount their thought and get them to shut up.

Dude, you seriously don't have a clue. Your accusation of "liberal tactics" show that clearly.

No, you calling me a troll shows that you have no clue.

Ok. You're right. You win.

Ha! I couldn't think of what you're talking about, now I understand. I wasn't saying "troll" as in, "You are a troll." I was saying "troll" as in "cruise" "go through" etc. As in what you do in a fishing boat when you're just scanning through an area. Notice I used the word as a verb in that post, not a noun.

However, I will say that in that thread I stand by my point that it is the owner of this website's say on what rules are made and how they are enforced. He has been very clear on that rule.

In THIS thread, I am referring to the actions of the previously mentioned banned member that was constantly "trolling" by bringing up something that he had been warned repeatedly for.

This thread is... weird.

I'm gonna go sit on the Obama and take a Romney.

That is the best political statement i have ever heard.

What does it mean? Using one thread to resurrect a stupid gripe you had with another person in another thread?
