Wow, people ITT blithely repeating talk they hear from the herd. Never seen that before. Let's move back to who sucks.

Blithe never described someone so well.

Well, it was a better evening than 10-15 more pages of whether or not DiB sucked dick for change. We can say that.

3rd strike laws have never worked as a deterrent. You just get people with 3rd strikes.
Pleased to see your explanation.

Now I can more or less agree with you and still say you are generally wrong. there is no mild punishment or social pressure on Fly. The problem with P is Fly's behavior is approved of by the local kids and supported by the moderation. Maybe that's not a problem with P at all, some obviously think it's a good thing and helps make P so marvelous.

Meaningless temp bans for his behavior are like being scolded by a winking policeman. Culture matters and the current culture doesn't just tolerate the Fly persona, it encourages it and uses it.

You should try whining about it incessantly for an entire year, see if that helps.

Operant conditioning sculpts behavior. It's applied everyday with the raising of our children, with our penal system, at work, school, basically everywhere. Confounding variables abound for 3 Strike laws, such as addiction and drug laws.

I gather you (Brian) were a psychoanalyst?

I could consider a year making stuff up and trolling but that seems well covered.

3 strikes was a bad analogy for several reasons (and it's a noxious policy anyway). Escalating bans and bans from threads along with meaningful warnings would be effective for most posters. May be too late for a few with entrenched behavior but most would adapt easily and new posters would just see the result as the normal way to behave.

But it's still not clear there is a problem that anyone is trying to resolve. Do you think wookie its trying to do something and failing?

Of course. It works for the vast majority of people. However, telling someone "if you do x one more time, y will happen" is not operant conditioning.

Where you have someone whose personality can be described as an outlier, it doesn't work in the normal manner. Most of us, by adulthood, have figured out that we aren't supposed to pick our nose in public.

Escalating bans and meaningful warnings are desired, but for the love of God don't take away mod status after threatening PMs and repeated antisocial behavior. That's history's greatest fiasco.

Doesn't this mean you're folding way too much on the river?

don't worry mate. it's not going to happen so you can carry on with your nonsense

whether that's desirable or not in P is debatable but moot.

However you can falsely claim people are sexist, racist, anti-Semite, call them horse ****ers, and still keep your mod status.

Oh and don't forget LetsGambool targets people's kids.

All you do is whine and cry, but even worse, it's hateful and dishonest whining. You are a role model for hate, cowardice, and irresponsibility.

there are probably millions of kids in the country with equal or greater intelligence but because they were born on the wrong side of the tracks, or whatever, won't be a doctor.

not to turn this into another delete worthy derail.
Lol this dumb **** just Internet Tough Guyed AND IQ Tough Guyed in the same post?

Also, weed is terrible for your poker game unless your biggest problem is raging while you play... Which would make sense for you considering the stupid ass **** you post while angry.

Saying "peanut butter" at random intervals would be effective for most people. The vast majority don't need anything.

The strange ones who need more are mostly a lost cause and the reason to escalate is to get them to go hang around somewhere else.

Dude's last account is on record saying he called a couple of black guys n*ggers because they pissed him off so, yeah, guessing he monkey tilts.
