Has anyone ever been banned from ILX?

C-Man
Nude Spock
Jay Blanchard
Modest Mickey

Stelfox and LouJag were both banned of their own free will, to stop themselves posting.

marissa marchant

Some guy from W00den W@nd got banned, right?

luriqua

paul edward whatshisname

was becky lucas banned or did she just eventually disappear?

old school

Paul Edward Wag3man, right? Wasn't he the guy who claimed ROCKERS needed to reclaim the word ROCKISM "like blacks have done with the n-word"? Wow.

momus

Dom Passantino

chaki sockpuppets

a) Myself, J0rdan S.

b) Post in the same thread as a pissed-off TOMBOT.

fake morbs

Momus has never been banned

I don't recall calum ever actually getting properly banned, just loads of handwringing about it.

becky lukas I think eventually went away of her won accord

heave ho

some multi-user sockpuppet that got into the hands of heave ho

some nazi dude, I forget the exact details

bato.

spammers generally don't get a second chance

What did Mickey finally do to get banned?

I think it was the stupid racial shit that was the final straw...?

Thread that got him banned:

Let's contribute to jaymc.xls by listing everything/body that ILX has determined is racist

Stupid racial shit is pretty much a guarantor of permabanning. We generally tent to run the place on pretty loose rules, but that one is a line in the sand for sure. I can't actually remember what it was that Mickey did in the end. (X=post OK, now I remember, thanks Dom.little.black.book)

lol passantino

This whole .xls/dossiers thing... this is a joke, right? He doesn't actually do this....

does he?

I have a need for really simple narratives so on threads that resulted in somebody getting banned I always want to see somebody say "Ok, that's it, you're banned" - I think there was one thread where somebody (the w00den wand dude I think?) said "fucking ban me!" and then somebody who hadn't been participating in the thread said "OK" and that was the whole post and then there was, like, silence and peace

that was awesome

What the original poster called laxity is a relatively high level of tolerance for stupid or offensive behavior. That toleration can be and sometimes has been exhausted.

However, I don't think the moderators can or should give directions about the best way to get banned. That's like giving matches to pyromaniacs

J0hn D@hlem was sitewide banned, wasn't he? I don't know if he was ever unbanned.

I don't understand why Heave Ho is banned. I like when he posts sexxxxy photoes

heave ho

some multi-user sockpuppet that got into the hands of heave ho

some nazi dude, I forget the exact details

whaa???! are you saying that there were multiple fake nazi dudes pretending as heave ho, or are you being completely facetious? i'm really confused at this point

I think those are three difft things.

suicide by cop joke in before omar

oh, ok. i s'pose that would make more sense. all i know is that the person formerly known as 'heave ho' is spam monster of sorts

speaking of pyromania, nice work on the steely vs bowie thread. just saying.

speaking of stupid racial shit: Manalishi

aka wooden wand

I banned Mickey - I think the straw that broke the camel's back with me was some aggressive behaviour towards a female poster and generally being a dick all over the Columbia shootings thread. I was kind of surprised that no one at all complained about that one actually. I was totally unsurprised that no one complained about Roger Adultery/Manlishi.

J0hn D@hlem and AaronHZ were both banned for flooding the boards with multiple threads, some aggressive, in one case containing a load of personal shit that other posters had confided in them. I think both of them were going through breakdowns of sorts?

Darramouss was banned and then unbanned in a fit of conscience and then immediately banned again.

free heave ho

Can we have some links to AaronHZ's breakdown, that shit was hilarious.

I'm pretty sure people complained about Roger Adultery and Mickey's antics, regularly.

free YOUR ORGANS

thing is that roger adultery was actually a really good poster on ILM, it's just that he liked to antagonize ILE's liberals. IIRC he didn't get banned for racist comments so much as his views on gun control & the second amendment? I don't follow ILE political threads much, so I could be wrong. Also, RA was a nice guy in the real world. Totally bought be beer on a few occasions.

He seemed alright a lot of the time but I think he got really o_O with some of the race button-pushing towards the end. Assuming he's not here in some other incarnation.

Have YOU heard about this horrible incident? Probably not...

but burt_stanton is evil?

IIRC there was some race button-pushing w/rog adultery.

3 different things, dell.

God, I forgot about locking that manalishi thread. It gave me a headache at the time.

oh, ok, thanks for the clarification.

yeah, to be honest, i was surprised by the rog/manalishi's banning. i "appreciate" that he was getting into obnoxious territory. for sure, but i just thought he was being more limbaugh than straight-out kkkkk's. but maybe i didn't read the objectionable threads closely enough, so pay no mind to me.

it doesnt really matter if he was racist like a racist radio show host or racist like a bunch of rednecks--in all honesty theres not that much difference--manalishi was a racist and an asshole and deserved to be banned

wildly untrue.

Boy howdy, this thread has been a trainwreck!!

Gersh, it's more the principle of the thing than any one particular bit of gossip.

I mean, ppl can see why this actually is creepy, yes?

I'm thinking they're just trying to see if they can trick us into actually listing and explaining all the juicy gossip for them by repeatedly asking for specific examples of what is verboten

Probably yes, but http://tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:_Jb5D-26Ftj_-M:http://www.webdesign-guru.co.uk/icon/wp-content/uploads/denied.gif

standards are being applied in a completely inconsistent no fun hardman thread baiting manner by those who routinely say horribly mean things all the time

its like how you cant show boobs on tv but you can show someones hed getting blown off then eaten by a dog except if you could show boobs most of time but then the fcc gave you a $1m fine for showing boobs on hbo

i am a britishes, jhoshea, they show boobs on tv over here at the drop of a hat.

(also it is 2am here, so i'm going to bed)

jhoshea you actually seem to be having quite a bit of fun

They shd show more boobs on tv tho

i cannot deny having fun w/this - i may in fact make a gif - but i dont think that invalidates my point

anytime deej and jordan s are banned for whatever reason is a WIN in my book! :-D

Fwiw, I'm not butthurt over the banning at all. I briefly considered sending Pashmina a missive detailing why Tombot is the worst, but then decided it wasn't worth it. I am mad however, about Tombot falsely accusing me and Jordan S. about spreading really terrible rumors that we wasn't even aware of, let alone involved with. I'm actually glad that thread got deleted, because things got really fucked up toward the end.

I wasn't accusing anyone, I was making a very slightly facetious exaggeration about the kind of shit that winds up getting bandied about whenever people decide they want to go down the road of meta gossip

i'm just glad i can't tell any of you apart in my head. it pretty much negates the desire for gossip from 1/3/7 years ago.

fuck i really don't want to get into this anymore but "meta" as it pertains to things like ask chaki is rarely "gossip" when that word refers to maliciously spreading secrets so "meta gossip" is kind of a bullshit term and again gives the impression that the regulars of this board are ruining ilx by telling ppls deep dark secrets when instead we're really just re-posting dumb shit that we all say on the main boards

your semantics have had no effect on the demarcation line between being a dick and not being a dick.

darraghmac offers the best approach so far.

tombot the expert on being a dick here

that's fine tom but ilx dickishness has a long ass history that stretches way back before ask chaki/ what we are referring to as "meta culture" and it's kinda bs for me and rev and whoever else to take the brunt (not talking about the banning) of the wrath from the old posters who are disillusioned by what ilx has become

and anyway basically all of the ilx gossip mongering ive witnessed has happened on aim and it usually stays there, and this whole thing has been blow way out of proportion since this past weekend

fine and I agree with pretty much all of that but quit playing dumb about it every fucking time and learn to go play somewhere else when you get yelled at for the same thing twice

everybody thinks this is some kind of constitutional fucking republic

quit accusing people of playing dumb when youre being obtuse

there is absolutely nothing more tiresome and annoying to me than having to tell the same posters time and again "hey, watch it" when they toe the line and get the response, again, "watch what? I'm not doing anything" back and forth and back and fucking forth as if this exact discussion doesn't happen once or twice every single month

seriously gr80 there is no end to the fun of hearing this from you when you know very well we gave heave ho about a dozen second chances about shit including when I had to go clean up his stalking of YOU

Would you like to tell me exactly what I did that was banworthy then? Please don't be vague. xp

look tom if you're referring specifically to the deleted thread on 77, i truly wasn't playing dumb w/r/t the chart i copied and pasted. that chart was really fucking long and i didn't read all of it and only posted it into the thread because the whole thread was people complaining about not seeing it and i figured no one was going to get butthurt about perpetua_pineapple.jpg joeks

rev imo you got caught up in a brewing thing between me and tom that started with the little mess over the woman from the chicago thread and boiled over with me stupidly pasting the chart into the 77 thread

xxp
heave ho being stalky and you being a drunk dickhead are two different issues

but i do really appreciate you helping me out w/ removing that picture, just in case you thought i didn't.

other than you being really fucking pissy and self-righteous on the behalf of other people who are plenty capable of speaking for themselves, as seen here, the sum total of the effects of me being a "drunken dickhead" are

1. some guys didn't post as much as they would have over a weekend I guess
2. a thread that nobody so far disagrees with the deletion of has been deleted, and replaced with a much improved version
3. a few people thinking that I have set some kind of dangerous precedent for total mod fascism which is possibly a sign that they need to go see a doctor about their long term memory unless they just started posting here a year ago

ok so no big deal then
