Actually it looks to be a prejudice on the moderators part, or at least the result of a particularly bad policy. The mod states on the ban that the banned poster has gone four months without incident. That would suggest to me as what I hope comes across as a even handed fellow. That a warning was more then in order. Obviously the poster has tried to behave themselves, and just had a slip up.

I mean if the moderators stick to a process of pure escalation then the end result will be empty forums as people can only be forced out. Rather then work their way back in. That said I agree with your observation it is hard to see this as being fair. The first poster looks to meet all of the criteria of what would be considered trolling, and if that is the case then the second posters response was obviously provoked. I don't like the idea of new posters getting a free pass. While established posters get the belt.

Anyway take it for what it is worth. I am not a big fan of the banning policies on this site period. I think they do a lot more harm then good. Which is probably part of the reason that these forums probably see a tenth of the total traffic they saw just a couple years ago. The irony is I will probably get banned for saying so.

Dude, you're like my hero right now

Seriously how do this not get a ban, given some of the petty bullshit I have been banned for recently.  Then someone calls him out and is banned.

 

what is going on!?  


He had zero moderations on record.

First moderation is pretty much always a warning unless it's a nuclear option type thing...

or in otherwords.

 

 As for the guy replying to him... I believe he called the guy an asshole.  Which is clearly against forum rules and he's had moderations before.


Doesn't alter my main point. The baiting and thread wrecking is running amok.  (Amok... Great vic 20 game back in the day)

@Kasz216 : it seems you are against moderation rules yourself...

 

(2.) "New Users. Because new users have not yet shown a commitment to civil discourse, moderators will look more harshly upon them (and upon prolific rule-breakers) than established users with relatively clear moderation histories. If you are a long-time member of the site, it is easy to tell the difference between a light-hearted, humorous post, and a genuine piece of flamebait. This distinction is far less clear when you are a new user, so we advise caution."

 

can't you remediate the mistake ?
