@Dove .... Dew Dawg banned Flynn at es gee... that was poor moderation.
Earlier, he did good moderation for me keeping her out of my PM at the time... note I didn't ask for her to be banned, just not to use PM over the one rule flea wanted enforced.
The reason Flynn was banned (it was a temporary ban) is because he was going batshit nuclear, spamming every thread with the Poofer drama, threatening "board war" and libel lawsuits.
Flynn was asked politely a few times to chill it out. Instead of getting his shit together, he started claiming he was making people cry and continuing to hysterically spam every thread. Every active thread. Even outside of the battle grounds.
The meltdown had been going on for 3 days and people were sick of it and not posting....because every thread was being littered with the drama.
It's all still all there. It was a just a temporary ban. Even Flea had had enough and said the next person to bring up the Poofer drama was getting banned. And Flynn immediately did it.
What is supposed to be done when you have someone rage spamming every thread for days like that about a topic everyone was sick too death of? I didnt want Flynn banned BUT I also didnt want to see paragraphs of rage in every single thread i posted in. No one else did either.
They have relaxed a lot since then, they are still pretty engaged in it and still pretty pissed....but at that time Flynn wasnt allowing anything else to be talked about. It was as if he was on an unmedicated manic psychotic episode. I've honestly never seen anything like it. It is to date the cringiest and most concerning meltdown I've ever seen.
I have no idea how this sort of thing worked out on "flame boards" or why anyone would think plastering their asses to a screen for 3 days and rage spamming an entire board and threatening lawsuits is "kicking ass" unless they are severely mentally ill. He was so unhinged he was warning posters like Wizer that I was gonna try to fuck them.
Flynn was making a huge ass of himself and needed a brief time out.
Big is always fair in his moderation. The reason "team blue" says otherwise is because he temporarily banned Admin. The reason he temporarily banned Admin is because Admin was spamming memes off topic in someone's discussion thread. They had asked nicely a few times for him to please stop. And he refused. Then he was warned if he didnt stop he would be temporarily banned. Well he continued to do it. So he got a temporary ban.
He was given several chances to stop spamming memes (that were not even on topic) in someone's discussion thread. It had nothing to do with politcs. Anyone doing that would have been moderated. The people claiming Big isnt fair consistently expect to be coddled and shown favoritism and have moderation only against people they disagree with and if they dont get their way they cry that its bias.
In reality that could have been Deport spamming a discussion thread with pro Trump memes and if he didnt stop when warned the same thing would have happened. They wanna shit up peoples threads and cry foul when they are moderated.
And again.....all of this is still up. Anyone can go see what happened themselves. No one would be able to act like that here either. I dont think it's good for any board to allow certain people to shit on peoples threads and derail every discussion. Temp bans or "forum jail" is how this kind of thing has always been handled on every board I've ever posted on. I dont see why Es Ge should be different and allow obnoxious shit that not even this board tolerates. Blue Oyster Bar doesnt tolerate that. FT didnt tolerate that. Why should Es Ge? Because it's Big? See what I'm saying?
People who are still complaining about this are trying to make it far more personal than it is, as if they should get special treatment because Big shouldnt be allowed to moderate anything because "bias". These fucking morons know exactly why they were banned. They know it was temporary and they knew what they were doing.
This time around people who act like that will just be confined for a short period until they chill out. Kinda like the assbox here.
I really dont get why Es Ge being put back up is such an emotional big deal for anyone. The whole faction thing where a few idiots are claiming if people post elsewhere then they shouldnt post here is beyond stupid lol.
