Re: DIDS JUST BAN ERICW

wow I can't believe you are not banning him

Re: DIDS JUST BAN ERICW

Gild,

I honestly don't think Eric's been that bad post the containment thread. He's trolled me a bit, but that's to be expected given what I've done with him, and his trolling was at least an attempt at funny and not nearly as stupid as a lot of what gets thrown at me. I think there are far worse trolls. The reason Eric got singled out when I started was simply because he started threads that spoke to a mentality that I wanted to remove from BBV4L. I think/hope that point has been made.

Now that Eric's "free" we'll see if he can refrain from the kinds of threads that made him a problem. I pretty much expect him to [censored] up and that citanul will ban him within 2 weeks.

DB,

the fact that you voted not to ban ericw and you are a frequent poster in bbv4l and have read basically every one of ericw's posts is disturbing and reflects pretty badly on your judgement overall.

Either you are shamelessly courting bbv4l public opinion or you are just showing really terrible judgement that is indicative of being a bad mod. If it's the former then that's pathetic, and if it's the latter you should be de-modded, imo.

I haven't read them all by a long shot, but am amused by the ones I have read. There may be some lousy ones I've just not seen. I don't really care to go hunting them out, because it's not that important to me.

I can vote how I like, mang, Dids asked for input. I believe idiot posters should be game for flaming and ridicule, not for banning, so I'm gonna vote that way for any but the most terrible of posters. I am being very careful in expressing an opinion that diverges from mod practice in 4life (and admit I have been careless with this in the past), but cmon, Dids asked!

I certainly will not say a word post-ban (if it happens) against the decision or to denigrate Dids.

You have a major bugbear with this poster that I think is more your problem than anything else. Will you be cool please?

Like I said, if Dids (or another 4Life mod) does ban him some time, I'm not gonna say a word. Dids is doing a good job, and if he makes one decision I happen to disagree with, well he's got the job and he's doing it well in all other respects, and I have a lot of respect for him on that.

If he bans EricW, I will just assume I am wrong about EricW because I haven't read all his posts, simple as that.

bump

I was on the fence about this but I've decided over the past couple weeks and especially past couple days that he's just a terrible troll and should be instapermamegabanned.

I don't think the pro-ban camp quite understands BBV4L. To paraphrase Jman:

wrong.

Re: DIDS JUST BAN ERICW

Also, I don't think Eric is a troll and I think his posting is genuine. I think I would sound like Eric if I ever took off my weirdness filter. I identify with him and while I'm not sure if people can be as weird as him, people can definitely be as pathetic as him.

This is all moot anyway. Dids posted in B4L that he would ban 1/3 of the forum before he banned Eric.
