Question on ban announcements

Jokes about my supposed banning aside, sometimes I am surprised I haven't attracted more moderator attention for some of the things I have said.

Technically he said reading his posts was like reading the posts of one, I believe.

Burgey knows his judo well. You make 50 of those and eventually you might get pinned for three though. Meh.
Nah, he literally called him a fool. Major slip up. He was doing a fine job toeing the line with the lobotomized sheep comment imo.

Unacceptable posting GIMH. If any of you really dislike CW as much as it appears, vote with your feet and leave. There's plenty of other forums and Facebook groups that may appreciate your negativity.

He is a fool. WHo cares.
Nowhere in the rules does it say truth is a defence, otherwise I could call everyone I reply to a communist fool every post and be fine.

Indeed I could call OS a **** even in reply to posts he hadn't made, like this one.

In the past I've noticed if someone starts piling up the week long bans in quick succession they eventually get hit with something bigger like 6 months or so

No chance this applies to burgey right? Too much of a CW dynasty for him to ever get more than a slap on the wrist right?

Correct. Very poor moderation once again.

Black and white rigidity seems more important than common sense and the forum's integrity in cases like this.

As I say, I demand the resignation of Spark, Dan, nightprowler and Teja for this. Fusion should also be fired.
I don't know if lumping me separately from the rest of the mods is a good reflection on me or not. I'm thinking not. Agree with the mass firings by the way.

I think Burgey is aiming to get a 12 month-er to match his mate.

There were no mass firings

All the others were offered the dignified way out via resignation

Its all about the points. He must have had an infraction lapse that took him back below the week threshold

But yes there are a group of posters that quite frankly should be above bans and Burgey is part of it

There is no such thing as a lobotomized sheep. That would make the sheep a vegetable. Which doesn't make any sense.

We own a few dozen heads of sheep on our farm.

Farcial. Call someone a **** as much as you like and it's deemed acceptable, but call them a fool or a labotimised sheep and you're out for a week?
