  • Pisti will be back in time, and is very welcome to stay if he can just refrain from bullying others and purposefully being anti-semitic in the process.

    marcom remains permanently banned and has not made any approach to me to have that ban lifted. Not that I'm presently inclined to listen given that he invested a day last week to signing my email up to every porn site he knew about (and Ars Technica, why?). It does nothing to suggest he'll act with consideration to others or that he no longer has a chip on his shoulder re: me, so I can't think why his ban would be lifted when that's what I'm looking to see.

    But... TS, you're hardly one to advocate the return of bullies when you're busy bullying others too: http://www.lfgss.com/post3485804-20072.html

    That's cool... forum self-moderation is a good thing.

    But when it's the same usual suspects against the same other people, and when they've received very specific and harsh warnings in the past... then it should be left to other people to do the correction.

    As it stands, it just looks like TS continuing to haunt the same few people, with the same shit-stirring. And then it's TS asking to let other shit-stirrers back, which doesn't look too good when TS is busy winding up the same few individuals he's been warned not to.

    I'm getting kinda tired of it. There is clearly a problem with too much sensitivity, but there's also clearly a problem with a few people feeling that they really don't have to be considerate or show respect to others on here... both sides of that are shitty, and just because there's too much sensitivity it doesn't mean that people should get away with constant bullying, shit-stirring against others. And just because a few people are crap like that, it doesn't mean we should be overly sensitive either... as then we'll end up with a "hug thread".

    Basically, both extremes are dumb. And TS should know better. And when I start expressing that I'm getting tired of the silliness of it all, that's when people should know my tolerance for bullshit is pretty low.

    As usual, my default is to not ban someone. It's to wait and see whether they comprehend their own actions and make such minor adjustments as necessary to avoid it.

    But mostly... I don't know whether TS asking for marcom and Pisti to be unbanned was a serious request (if so, from totally the wrong person, the people involved should just recognise their own behaviour and promise to try and not do it in future), or a joke (if so, I can't tell).

    I appear to have pissed on the emperor's chips...

    Why single me out? Cuz I stuck up for marcom?

    Shame on you...
