You know you're in POG when the bickering over a ban lasts longer than the ban itself.

I like crossnerd a lot.

How is nutshot's behavior at all relevant? Seriously, how does that work?

Person gets trolled, breaks "rules," such as they are, in the opinion of a mod, gets minor temp-ban. Explain how the prospect of nutshot being less of a troll is relevant to LKJ's perception of her behavior?

I think LKJ's perception of nutshot being less of a troll is all that is relevant(to him not also getting banned).

How does nutshot NOT getting banned have anything to do with whether CN's ban is fine or not?

Honestly this is why POG is so ******ed sometimes, you can't go harder than CN went so she got like a functional 9-hour ban or something. I've got no problem with her going hard like that and I don't think the tempban is even a bad thing, it's kind of hilarious and lends some validity to her posts anyways.

Whether nutshot gets banned or not for making posts that weren't nearly as "bad" - you should probably read the exchange - doesn't have anything to do with the decision re: CN. It's so obvious how this happened, jesus.

The argument you guys are making is essentially that nutshot made CN make bannable posts. That's so obviously ridiculous.

If it's intended to be a troll but breaks no rules while CN's posts obviously break like 9 isn't it pretty clear what the ruling is going to be?

Can the rest of you hurry up and start understanding what happened already? I'm paying Hoyaids by the minute here (~ $7)

the lesson to be learned here is that direct confrontation earns a ban but subtle trolling does not. nutshot is obviously much better at the subtle trolling

Like seriously good lord, this is how trolling works. Those two don't like each other, CN fires SHATS (about how he should've been aborted, etc. - again I don't even care, but duh), nutshat fires more subdued SHATS, she gets rustled, he gets rustled, he SEIZES an opportunity to highlight like seriously 9 posts that break rules, she getsd temp'd, it's lol, nutshat wins this round of the troll olympics

she'll be back tomorrow and she'll probably come up with some new witticism and she's clever, sh eknows she can wield this to get him temp'd or something later anyway, who cares

so knowing the intent of both, you go by a sterile definition of who needed banned?

what are we trying to prevent with bannings?

I'd kinda feel like he shouldn't have been but I wouldn't really care, it's the hand-wringing and POG OUTRAGE that is so absurd to me

we're trying to prevent idiots like teddyyy from doing teddyyy things, temp bans aren't for that and barely even register as an event, I have no idea what we're "trying to prevent" with TEMP bannings and I don't care unless your idea is the "nice police," which I have made my thoughts about very clear: that's the WORST thing about POG

Also the definition of "troll" around here is predictably stupid, you're not a "troll" because you troll one or two people, you're a troll if you exist to be a suck on the forum. This too is totally obvious and a totally lol feature of POG "politics," which is too high-minded a term for the bull**** that goes on around here.

Obviosuly you can "troll" someone, but that does not a troll make.

Nich - I like nich - is closer to a troll than either of those two, given that he has started about 234671247442176421741 games that will never finish.

well, it seems like since you didn't get modded when you campaigned for it, you found some passive-aggressive means to "lolpog", and the SE "hardposting" and "lolpog" meme gave you a convenient avenue to vent your stifles frustration.

I believe you legitimately do not like pog now.

and mostly because of that.

passive aggressive?

Subtle trolling?

Nutshot?

Come again.
