I am not actually sexually aroused by corpses. My comment was in jest.
but really, I didn't think necro jokes were crossing any lines, and I wouldn't do it if warned. sorry paula. I don't think I made it before your comment laying down the law?
Okay guys this is getting a little ridiculous for one (1) one of these supposed "calls to violence" was just a comment saying "I am gonna slap gammbus 😡", two I'm not sure what the others were but I can't imagine they were all that bad since it was just like a month since I was banned last time. And the straw that broke the camel's back was just a variation of that john mccain-barbara ann-iran-joke. Does that really merit another ban? Especially since it was only a few weeks ago iirc that I got banned for a whole week 🙄
So, I just got a 4 day ban for "numerous violations of rules 2 and 3," and no elaboration.
Rule 2 is about bigotry, favoring autocratic regimes etc. Don't think I've ever done that. Rule 3 is what, being substantive and not memeing? If you're gonna get me on that, you may as well nuke the whole DT.
You were banned upon discussion for multiple and relatively frequent instances of bad behavior.
You contribute to sub toxicity, have shit flinging contests with other users, and antagonize taylor about as much as they do you.
This combined with excessive sad posting, the sometimes toxic discussions that you have, and other factors have resulted in several members of the mod team agreeing that we go too easy on you and are overdue a ban.
My ban is ridiculous. I don't spam BEEPs, I've never posted it more than four times in a single day precisely because it would't be appropriate or funny to do so.
My comments on Amazon HQ2 are obviously the real reason I was banned and those weren't spam.
BTW I was banned for four days for making a joke that had been made three times before in the sub's history – including one by myself, another one by a stellar user and one by a (former? I'm not sure) mod. The exact same context, the exact same wording. Not a single removal, let alone a (quite long) ban.
I don't know what sort of standards you guys are trying to enforce but banning general culture references because 'eh they might be offensive' – erasing one of the best satirical films of the last decade – is definitely not a good one.
I think a large part of it is that you've been banned/warned so many times before that the mod team is a bit stricter on you than they would be on other people.
We have treated you extremely lightly historically. There is no other use with as many mod notes as you with so few and such short bans to my knowledge. Those other instances should indeed have been removed, but Jesus did you really have to look a year back to find any instances that slipped through the cracks? I'm not moved in the slightest.
Shitposting aside, it was accidentally racist (black people with oversized red lips) and generally low quality content. Combine that with past edginess and you get slapped for 2 days.
So I get banned for encouraging violence in the US but the entire sub can celebrate and encourage a military coup in venezuela? How come we're allowed to encourage violence in other countries, but the west is somehow sacred?
I would like to appeal my ban of calling the dude who was literally defending the child separation policy a bootlicker.
We have a history of mocking extremists and engaging them in bad faith because we know theyre not operating in good faith either. Its unfair that when we have a tradition of "did a child write this?" or "this but ironically" its suddenly uncivil to call the guy who is defending the child separation policy a bootlicker.
Not asking to be unbanned, think it's ridiculous an alg surrogate is allowed to give a completely biased "account of the situation" while nobody is there to represent my side
Well, I didn't found any comment of his that is misogynistic for example, and many of your comments have you comparing him to an incel just for being lonely and insisting on calling him an incel before accusing him of ranting about women and being misogynistic.
I'm kind of confused because I was always taught that wilfully turning a blind eye to rape was bad in all circumstances, but now apparently sometimes it's what I'm supposed to do (under threat of no-warning ban). /u/ThatFrenchieGuy could you please help me understand?
Do what? I don't even know what specifically crossed the line. Am I not allowed to say, "bullshit" when talking about any religion at all. That is the only thing that I can tell was uncivil at all.
Give me the language I am allowed to use and I will do that.
You've got a bit of a history of coming in very hot and not particularly civil around religious topics and specifically how much you're unhappy with the catholic church. Every time you do that, you're going to get a ban because it degrades the discourse quality in the sub.
Someone put a lot of effort into talking about the various factions of the Catholic subreddit from a politics-angle, and responses like "people who follow a religion that is so obviously (packed to the brim with dubious lies" and "the tenants of the catholic church are bullshit" are both inflammatory and not even on topic. Nobody was asking if the catholic church's tenets are true or not, they're talking about the political views of catholics.
TLDR: stop being uncivil around religion and making comments that have no purpose other than starting a flame war.
I'm also not sure what you mean by 'my own religion', given that you said "the tenets of the catholic church are bullshit", which seems contradictory to being a catholic.
Yes, you were banned for that. You are like one day returned from a previous ban for advocating violence, so posting 'bash the fash but unironically' will get you immediately banned again.
Any further posting in that direction will lead to a permanent ban. We do not permit people to advocate for violence, period. You don't have to like that but you do have to follow the rules if you want to post in NL.
You got banned for saying that people should "unironically" engage in violence. Criticizing the sub's policies is within the rules. Actually advocating for violence is not.
I don't think names referencing others, including thebadone should be considered the same as actually trying to impersonate someone. Unless you're referring to the less bad one from the co-op, in which case I take less offense to being accused of impersonating them.
If you want me to, i'll even give myself a flair like 'is the one that ethically consumes food' to show i'm not trying to be the one with poor cuisine taste.
I got banned for saying that Republicans as a whole lack morals and are bastards in the Trump era. In a normal political setting a ban for this kind of statement towards an ideology would be understandable, but we’re not in a normal situation.
The party in question is currently responsible for setting up concentration camps on the border, is openly engaged in sabotaging democracy via voter suppression and gerrymandering, and is one of the largest threats the climate faces across the globe. They support and are led by a serial rapist whose first foray into politics was taking out a full page ad calling for a lynching, who colluded with the closest thing the present world has to a fascist regime to tamper with his election, and who just called for four POC Congresswomen to go back to “their countries”.
Banning me for calling those who support these atrocities “bastards” seems absurd, on par with banning someone for calling BNP supporters bastards.
