Perhaps you ban people that you disagree with.
KUSA bans are not one mod actions. They're exhaustively fretted upon and about and around by mods and admins and there's a vote count requisite. LP was just enacting a forum administration action. You've been around long enough to know that, so I consider your accusation provocative.
But, my little opinion doesn't matter.. anymore.
As for anyone who has a question about trolling and what qualifies as trolling--I refer you to the part in the rules where it says actions are described as being at the moderators discretion whether a member has qualified themselves for the ban or not. Considering trolling is an ambiguous state, so too seem the rulings sometimes, but I trust our moderation staff to make the proper decisions regarding this forum. Having been a mod, I can account to the fact that any mod actions are reactionary, not aggressive with an intent or agenda. Fools hang themselves sometimes. I thought scoops was a troll when I came across him. Surprised he hung around so long, tbh. Whe you look at the totality of contribution and the majority being trolling, then the minority of legitimate posts is outweighed and amount to nothing.
Any questions on the rules? Here u go.
Trolling
Most of the time it boils down to whether the person is liked or not. Scooby had some radical opinions but as someone else mentioned, he actually believed in what he said. So it comes down to the fact that he just didn't fit in.
I'm not worried about it, just pointing it out. There are fuck tons of forums out there. If someone doesn't fit in one of them they can just find another one. I've done it lots of times.
