So now we're banning users who didn't break any rules (gaming)

submitted ago by Laurentius_the_pyro

The fact that @puttitout banned aged based purely on a brigaded request thread by people who themselves are spammers (and unlike aged their 'spam' wasn't even relevant to the subverse).

Like it's very hard to feel sympathy for someone like /u/aged, but this uneven enforcement is ridiculous, why is /u/theoldones not banned when he spammed /v/gaming constantly with self posts reqursting /u/aged to be banned? Are these relevant to gaming but lewd fanart of adult female game characters is not?

If puttitout can give an explanation of which rule was broken I'd be ok with it, but as it stands "im a dictator lmao" is not an excuse to ban a user.

Yup, I banned him and I stand by it.

I can't really agree with you here. Spam is so loosely defined and it seems a stretch to call his submissions spam.

Annoying? Yes. But spam? I'm not so sure it's spam and I'm not even sure if it's off topic.

So, for what it's worth (which is very little), I can't really agree with your justification. However, I ain't gotta agree and you ain't gotta give a shit about my thoughts on the subject.

Holy shit someone who actually read my post instead of just making up a strawman of what I had to say.

you didn't choose a very good martyr i might point out. you're making that whole strawman task sort of easy.

I know, but it's the old "if you don't protect the speech of the people you detest, you don't care about free speech at all".

you are currently attempting to get in the way of an angry mob weilding torches and pitchforks, who is hunting down a known pedophile for shitting up a mainline sub, by turning it into a hentai subverse.

I see it more like I'm the guy trying to demand that proper channels are used (i.e amend the rules and THEN ban him if he breaks the new ones) instead of pitchfork mob (ban him now and sort the rules out later/never).

oh, okay.

you, need to fucking think for five minutes how to phrase your shit properly, before flying off the handle. currently, i have to work under the assumption you're a pedophile loli masturbator, and that the only reason you're throwing a shit fit is because one of your easy porn sources just got cut off.

regardless of whether or not that's true, you're making it really easy to think that's the case.

No, YOU jumped to that assumption, and then continued with it after I explained by viewpoint.

Also who the fuck would use voat of all places as their source of wank material?

You know he's a retard right?, did you read the username, he's the guy that was spamming half of voat last month for being "pedos" if they didn't acquiesce to his tard logic, I'm fairly certain you came forward and mentioned he spammed you too.

I did find it odd that he immediately accused me of being a pedophile, and upon realizing that I didn't have anything that could even be misconstrued as CP/loli/hentai/whatever in my submission history, and nothing but anti-pedo posts in my comment history just decided to quietly drop it.
