It's not doxing. It's a threat of doxing.

It's clearly not even a threat of doxing - it's saying to someone that they might be heading for rockier times, and that's all.

i mean, chezlaw is just constantly incredibly dishonest in his day-to-day posting, and I don't know about whosnext but he writes like a SMPer so I'll assume he's also similarly afflicted.

So this isn't surprising, but do the admins really want to go down the road of their representatives straight up lying in their comprehensive list of actions?

Not a big deal, just lol at this clown show being a sanctioned forum by an actual corporation, Mat or Mason must have early onset Alzheimers or something to think this is a good idea.
My guess is he thought the bad posters list was supposed to be ironic.

I gotta figure LetsGambool taking two days off -vs- the fool getting 8 is a +6 win. Thanks for taking two for team 'leftist' !!!1!

You're welcome!

lol, which one of the admins do you think disapproves of this? We're lucky they haven't turned the whole site into Stormfront Jr.

AverageJoe - your posts are being deleted because of your timeout irrespective of content

I'm not at the computer at the moment but you should expect the inevitable temp ban

It's pretty obvious that chezlaw is playing 4d chess here. After all, what is the one issue that brings everyone together, liberal and conservative, black and white, man and woman...

Spoiler:
The modding here sucks.

If you guy's just follow the rules and don't make it about the poster you wouldn't have any issues. Please post only content in the content threads and stop with the trolls and spams.

If conservatives on this site could take your advice we wouldn't ever have had a need for a separate politics forum, but those guys love their safe spaces and hate following rules or acting like adults.

I actually haven't had any issues personally (I mean, I'm new so give it time).

Also, calling your posts "content" is kind of an illustration of my point. The reason this forum fails is that posters like wil, who are interesting to argue with are constantly getting banned while posters like you, who are pretty transparently trolling, are allowed to continue.

I agree. This forum sorely misses the contributions of the likes of Will and Toothsayer. I 'd consider these guy's two of the best posters, but their common sense and logic is like a foreign language to most of the loonies in this forum.

Your timeouts are childish yo.

Not at all.

Chez doesn't want to be a complete toolbag like Wookie and just Ban people. He does need to have some consequences for breaking the rules. I disagree with his PC rules but he's the MOD but I guess most of you need to be protected.
05-26-2017 , 12:39 PM
We already had the "mod sanctioned gaslighting" discussion and, if the remaining posts are anything to go by, it was agreed that Chez definitely doesn't do that.

This is definitely not true, but I understand that this is supposed to be limited to modding of this forum.

The thread has also become the de facto place to discuss the forum in general. So feel free to carry on (within reason).

If it would make sense, that tangent could be split off into another thread at a later date.

wow. we sure are lucky that hasn't happened.

why don't you guys start a petition or something trying to get this site taken off the internet? or send somebody to my house: 10745 tuckermans ave
las vegas and burn some crosses in my tiny front yard?

No comment at all re: chez lying about his reason for banning a poster?
05-27-2017 , 02:15 AM
the truth is i don't really care about the politics forums and let the mods do what they want. however, i won't let them ban people who actually want to use the rest of the site. those users can choose exile from this nonsense.
05-27-2017 , 04:25 AM
Confirmation, as if any was needed. The politics forums are a joke.
