moderation request: democratic bans

keith is at defcon caressing the switch

Been there for about two years.

Would you press it L0uis?

questions to never ask l0uis ever, first in a series

What amazes me is that I really do have my finger on the button but I don't press it.

Of course not! Although I'd probably make some funky changes just to keep things fresh...

Great Omar. I eagerly await its arrival.

What sort of 'funky' changes?

Actually, I've never seen a single episode of buffy the vampire slayer. It sounds shit.

i eagerly await louis.css

Oh, mostly coding it so that submitting certain words or phrases would have a certain result, that sort of thing...

Waht, like your name or something? I did that. Big HOOS, I have done a thing that lets you change your username. Sorry that you got stuck with it on day one!

Also, Omar, are you trying to suggest that I am asking for something for my work? Because I haven't and I won't.

easy there, no one's saying anything : O

Ah OK. I was confused as to why you posted a picture of a Buffy box set, like the one that Graham asked for in response to his hard work on ILX.

I understand. You made a joke about someone who isn't me.

I think ILX should have a lottery. One of those stone-throwin' kind.

Hey Dom, how did that work out?

-- Pleasant Plains, Wednesday, 6 August 2008 21:52 (Yesterday) Bookmark Link

It worked out with the mods pretty much breaking every single promise they made.

i would support more democratic bannage but i've never really been troubled by any banning of an ilxor by individual mod so it's not a big issue for me personally.

*takes notes*

^ un-necessary douchery but no matter

I think the premise of this thread would work better backwards. I like the idea of democratic unbanning, if the mods make an unpopular or controversial decision to ban someone and people want to vote to overturn it.

"It is easier to ask forgiveness than it is to get permission"

i like it

yes to democratic unbanning.

heave ho, ballot stuffer

yes on dem unban

i don't suppose we could democratically vote ask chaki back in?

AC clearly rendered obsolete by the ongoing vibrant discussion on The Church

I gotta say, the making of The Church was easily the most short-sighted move in recent ILX history; when even idiots like me foretell desolation, you know it's a false step.

ASK A RABBI WAS FUCKING GREAT

The church is "reverent," that's why it is so quiet.

i would like to point out that i was otm about the church

plz plz plz plz plz plz

being fair, everyone was otm about the church, but it went ahead and happened anyway.

yeah guys as long as there's a tombot there'll never be a chaki

no dude they complete each other, yin and yang... without chaki, tombot wouldnt be tombot

that's the dumbest shit you've ever said

ooh hellacious burn t-man

it is a little harsh, considering

double zinged by the tomster

c/d: people responding to good zings by nonchalantly acknowledging them

Absolutely no idea. Steady accumulation due to rants/jibes being taken too seriously, I'd assume. The (obviously deliberately OTT) Liverpool thread probably grabbed me about 5-10 more humourless SB's. Oh, and I suspected you hadn't SB'd me; you're not passive-aggressive about your objections, which is a good thing.

This is a rather fascinating study in watching someone who doesn't know when to stop learn the hard way.

Conversely, a fascinating study in anonymous victimisation of soft targets.

The fact that you think the Lpool thread would net more SBs than your regular daily conduct is o_O.

What have you learnt from this episode?

(Laurel otm and kinda my point with my question. You _never_ learn the lesson.)

Okay as someone contributing to this, I suggest we stop this conversation as it is a) becoming a personal attack, and b) likely to goad the people participating in it into acting like knobs.

ok

Hang on, I'm getting all this from Laurel/JJ etc about my "regular daily conduct", which confuses me, as I've actually made it my business on ILX to sincerely participate and attempt to improve relations rather than troll and irritate. If the latter seems to be happening, then there's some serious communication breakdown. Generally when I have a pop, I'm doing so with tongue firmly in cheek. What I've learnt is that ILX still thoroughly befuddles me. Can someone spell this lesson out?

Dan I am so glad you posted that, you just saved me opening a can.

LJ I am gonna e-mail you.

this fuckin guy

lou jag i'm gonna give you this one for free

you know how i say stupid shit on ilx and generally act like a dick like 80% of the time and still don't catch half the shit you do?

one of the reasons for that is if i get hardsonned i dont make 50 posts about myself and my "posting style" and how i just dont geeeeeet why everybody doesnt love me

pro-tip^

but ethan this is the first time i've done that in ages

point taken

Unfortunately, frequency means nothing once people have formed an impression of you.

FAQ this shit

LJ is too harmless to be banworthy

well, I think it's a good idea only if the potential bans are nominated by admins (e.g. TOMBOT starting a "should cankles be banned?" poll rather than King Boy Pato starting a "should Dom Passantino be banned?" poll)
