Can we unban Turrican and welcome him back to this board already?

We would also have accepted "sock me like a Turrican"

Anyway I feel a little skeevy trying somebody in absentia, even this nudnik, so now we have the mods's view and it's satisfactory I'm gonna shut my big mouth

Also, what is FP'ing?

― enochroot,

Flagging a post as objectionable. If a poster gets FP'd by 51 different users within 6 months, they get a one month sitewide ban.

Turrican sucked and we are well rid of him.

Although Turrican was useful to have on one's side during a McCartney album knife fight, he had no capacity for arguing on the internet. If I disagree with an opinion, I might counter it at most twice but eventually walk away from the discussion. This dude, in the most oafish and machista way, would insist that, no, you were wrong. I'm not sure of his age, but I reckon he never had internet lessons.

i know the board is getting old and is going to die at some point, but unbanning old posters who were banned for very good reasons seems like a bit of a drastic move, not to mention unnecessary. if the goal is for more cheap heat that drives up the level of noise on the board, we could always just start another trump thread. or we could have an argument over whether or not turrican should be unbanned, that would work. but actually unbanning him? gods no.

I can't believe the Aeon Flux board has posts from this year on it

I've known him for a very long time across various fan and music communities. I'd say going back 15+ years. He always ends up exiled. It's just a matter of time. He can be alright in private conversation, but something wicked sparks inside him on these forums.

xp from the creator of Aeon Flux, no less!

It is possible to break the cycle, but...only if you're willing to listen I guess

I want to delete this thread so bad...

FWIW, I have specifically thought how much the R.E.M. Monster thread would be stunk up if he were still around

Does turrican have another outlet where he can talk about music? I always feel bad when these energetic posters get banned

in all seriousness, shitty or not I think Turkey has been dunked on enough and it sounds like the decision's been made.

Lock thread and then blow it up.

The fact that (iirc) what Turrers said was borderline transphobic... yeah, that’s an actually legit criterion.

Is this true? I don't recall this.
