Who here doesn't find someone boring on here?
That's a terrible criteria for demanding a ban.>
Yes, that was a poor / vague choice of words on my part. To clarify: sexism is boring. If fewer women use the site because of it, the site becomes more boring. If threads are derailed by trolling and discussion grinds to a halt, that's boring. I think you have found the best solution in making Bothwell and hats mods of that part of the forum, so trebles all round.

That's a terrible criteria for demanding a ban. In raising it in here, that's what is being asked of me as it's the only reason to involve me.
Get better criteria, build a better case.
I'm never going to ban someone because from your extremely subjective point of view, someone bores you. Even if you multiply your to include the entire forum population, someone boring everyone (which you probably could never verify) still isn't a reason to ban... it's a reason for those who are bored to put the someone on ignore.
Has the forum slid so much that this is honestly the best case that can be made?
Have all my pleas for a solid reason to ban someone really fallen on deaf ears?
If people want me to act, show me the basis on which to act. That includes showing me reasoned and calm attempts to integrate the someone in question, to get them to understand what has caused issue and how to correct it.
When given such clear information, I act very swiftly.
