i think it feels like middle school when some dude like RT, displaying standard internet message board traits like arrogance, disdain for post-90s hip hop, and European-ness, shows up on ILX and a bunch of posters can't believe that he could be an actual person and must solve the mystery of whose sock this is.

most posters' greatest online fear is of being duped

I dunno the etiquette for this stuff; is it rude to ask why Racoon got banned? I get why people didn't like him, but did he cross a line, or was it just more of a general irritation thing?

In addition to his usual schtick, he went full-on into a full-on anti-Semitic frothing fit on the Charlie Hebdo thread.

was tanuki banned? i don't see it in the admin log

Treeship, Monday, 26 January 2015 20:11 (nine years ago) link

The banning system was not functioning at the time that he was accruing multiple FPs. Stet said that he didn't know how long it would take him to fix it. As a work-around, since RT was continuing to be a problem for a LOT of posters, we deleted his account. RT re-registered as Arctic Noon Auk and once banning was fixed we banned that account.

goole, Monday, 26 January 2015 20:23 (nine years ago) link

a fitting tribute

PS the probs w/the ban code are why we got the hilarious 2-post history & subsequent ban of "sacrificial lamb", they were testing it

xp w/sarahel!

I once saved a baby raccoon that had gotten stuck in a tall cylindrical trash can in very hot weather. You cannot save them all.

he wasn't so bad. i liked how he would feel cornered and then lash out, almost like a raccoon.

Treeship, Monday, 26 January 2015 20:51 (nine years ago) link

I liked how he'd swing from branch to branch using his prehensile tail

and I admired his large horn

Banning is so lame

if ilx was a democracy, it wouldn't happen. back in october there a referendum was called on the quesiton of unbanning all banned posters. the results were 25 to 11 in favor of the motion but the mods overrode it.

self-directed breaks are better, which you seem to do fairly regularly, looking forward to your next one. xp

this thread now =

Raccoons leave their feces and urine in the insulation and soffit areas. If that raccoon ever leaves other raccoons are attracted to that smell and will make your attic their new home.

I see how you turned that around on me!
I haven't hurled insults but many of you have at me. Seems a bit cunty.
I have no idea who you are but you're up on my comings and goings. Seems a bit sad.

No you're kinda right, it can also refer to the underside of the part of the roof that hangs over the house
