Bannings

listening to kids on the internet argue about individual works without knowing the greater context
I’ve had cause to have this experience, only replace ‘kids on the internet’ and ‘elected officials of my local polity’… Not to make it political, but it’s a bugbear of mine too, you’re definitely not alone.

"We’ve forked this discussion involving criticism of our decisions and answers to questions we ourselves asked off into another thread because it was taking over this thread.
Also we immediately locked the new thread because clearly nothing productive was happening in the discussion of how to rebuild trust with the community, who knows why we even bothered to create it, stfu."
just lol and lmao
Sorry, I’m aware this isn’t productive of me, but that coupled with the ad that mentions people are welcome to be a part of BMD if they’re also willing to help improve MSB (after having just shut down discussion of how to improve MSB), hasn’t stopped astounding me yet.
Hello, new peoples! Hope you find enjoyment here (and please nevermind my commentary, if you’re looking to be on both boards, then I genuinely hope you find enjoyment on both. I had good times over there.)

‘We voted to never ban people who ask to be banned again’
And yet I have not been unbanned after this decision. Interesting.
Mummy Pun? MUMMY PUN!

@Jennkryst yeah, I do find it weird that they’d make that decision and not reverse the bans that were from people asking?
Like, fair enough; I agree with the sentiment. A keysmash password can certainly be enough to break a habit, though I know the temptation to keep the password ‘just in case’ or anything. Especially since even a ban or a changed password doesn’t actually keep you from /going/ to the site, which is honestly-- the toughest of the muscle memory to break.
But if you make that decision, why wouldn’t you go back and undo the bans of the people who asked for them? Are they grandfathered in? lol, idk. man, idk.
Why do I keep trying to figure out their logic. If they could just give me /one concrete/ reason that Narson was left banned but like, Ghost was unbanned, I would figure out everything, I think.
I encourage anyone who is still on the fence about whether the bans were ‘justified’, that they go read through Narson’s posts during the period of time, and then Ghost’s posts during the period of time. -

I mean, one of us hates Roz, one of us likes Roz.
One of us was cheering the bans, one of us was pointing out issues.
Ghost’s crime was agreeing with them too forcefully, they were happy to allow that again once they realised they were left with the smegma of MUing (and one or two decent folks) actively posting on the board.
What they don’t want is disagreement, or anyone they don’t like, as proven from their response to ‘GIVE US FEEDBACK…no not like that’.

@Narson I do think there’s plenty of decent people left on MSB (or on both boards, mostly!).
But they have definitely let some creeps come creeping back in, HELLA.

On the premise that their criteria for unbanning posters was arbitrarily based on whom admin liked and didn’t, I think the real marvel here is the logical conclusion that there must be people out there who actually like Ghost, or think he has anything worthwhile to contribute, anywhere, ever, at all.

The same could be said for any number of us.

Even when they partnered with me the murdering was all done by me. Both Tez and Meg. Just me. They were imposter Imposters.

Playing Among Us with some of you taught me that for all my talk of dropping meteors, I am not nearly as ruthless as I think I am.
