It's a strange solution that clearly favors Kerotan. The problem is that things tend to escalate when he posts what he usually posts, but instead of punishing Kerotan for it, the people who get often baited by him got a restriction put on them. The result is that Kerotan can keep posting what he usually posts. Basically, the mod team tackled the effect instead of the cause. As far as I know, the "don't talk to specific user" rule that is in place here cuts both ways, so Kerotan isn't allowed to quote the people on this list either, but this isn't balanced because Kerotan is almost always the initiator of derailment. I have nothing against finding special solutions for special circumstances (meaning that the official forum rules don't list such measures), but these solutions need to target the root cause of an issue. We are way beyond the point where the innocent-lamb-card could apply to Kerotan. |
Well, many of his posts definitely are bait worthy. To be honest, I'm mainly a PlayStation fan (even if I don't really support any company) and a lot of his comments were so overly positive towards them that it pissed me off, so I can imagine how it bothers others. The problem is that a lot of the posts themselves when taken individually are rather harmless, but when given context and put together it's a lot more obvious.
