Please note that we keep this thread alive to serve as a mechanism for announcing or explaining the reasons certain bans occur.

It is NOT an outlet for you to express your approval of (or joy at) users being banned, regardless of the reason.

Users are banned temporarily because their infractions aren’t serious enough to be removed permanently; negative comments about them while they’re gone aren’t conducive to a friendly atmosphere when they return.

I concur.

Are we allowed to express approval after they come back with a sock and post in this very thread before getting banned again?

No fun allowed, Frink.

Approval and fun are two different things…potentially.

That was definitely a boneheaded move.

Out of curiosity, Who are you saying made the boneheaded move? Frink or the guy that came back with a sock and posted in this very thread?

The sock, I’m fairly certain.

Just to clarify, was Bereadeus chyron8472?

It does seem to be interesting how many people decide to make a temporary ban a permanent one. Some, of course, probably don’t care because they intend to keep creating sock accounts for the rest of their lives. Others… either do it while they’re pissed off, think they won’t get caught, or maybe just want to make sure it’s permanent?

RayRogers.

Ah, okay. It seemed like the time line also worked out for chyron, (banned the 2nd, joined the 3rd) and that would have been quite unfortunate. Thanks for demystifying.

No. The sock was not me. I wanted to login at the time you posted that to say the sock was not me, but that would have required making a sock.

Ok.

If it were your sock, you wouldn’t have been let back in.

What? I am allowed to welcome him back if I want to. I agree he broke the rules, but I am also glad he is back.

edit: when I originally created this post, all Frink said above was “Ok.”.

Bereadeus was RayRogers. End of line.

I was not let back in until today. It was my second post back. Before that, one could have assumed either way.

No, his ban wouldn’t have been lifted at all.

Ok. This isn’t the arguments thread.
