Handful? Dude. Raging every few days is not a "handful" by a long shot. People have been banned for WAY less.

One idea, if we would make a seperate thread would be that we would have that one be more for ginger and we would tie them together with hyperlinks.

That's a bit more likely to be accepted by the mods.

It really hasn't been a "handful" of mistakes ginger's made. More than that.

They are people that rage far more then him, but either hide it better or are close enough to the moderation that they can skate. It seems hardly fair.

Crow: No. That's not how appealing works. If Ginger wants to be unbanned, he needs to talk to the mods privately.

L mage: Kindly provide an example? Also, if they can hide it better, why does it matter? In fact, that's a GOOD thing. If you can stifle your rage, you shouldn't be banned.

Yeah we should probably let Ginger handle this.

@Chadd

I'm not saying that he doesn't deserve consequence, only that permabanning is on the extreme.

No ban is automatically permanent. No one said it was, L Mage. You're overreacting.

#237835 Kyler Thatch Thu, 28th Jun '12 6:00:58 PM from beyond the stars

"Banned" is such a heavy word. It usually implies no chance of coming back, ever.

Often, the word "suspended" feels more appropriate.

Can you tell me who you are? Can you tell me where I am?

I've forgotten how to see. I've forgotten if I can.

@AHR

I will opt not to provide an example, mostly because I have no desire to feel the anger of the powers that be. I will say however that listening to people rant endless in an eloquent fashion, over and over again on the same topic, with the same furious and insulting tone, is just as bad as normal raging.

And perhaps I am, but in general I've become disgruntled with the moderation of late

#237837 Mr AHR Thu, 28th Jun '12 6:01:57 PM from ಠ_ಠ

It's a ban because it won't ever be lifted unless the person requests the ban to be lifted. That's the point. You go to mods and say "yo, see what I did wrong, won't do it again."

And then they lift it, unless this is your 3rd or so time being banned.

L Mage: Wonderful. If someone annoys you, report them. Seriously. People always get annoyed by this, but never do anything about it, expecting the magical mods to just KNOW this. The worst case that happens is if they are not doing something bannable, but now he's on the mod's watch list.

Oh well, semantics. It was an off-handed remark, anyway, and I'll probably leave it at that.

And for the record ginger HAS talked to them and apologized we are just waiting on there response.

#237840 Mr AHR Thu, 28th Jun '12 6:03:48 PM from ಠ_ಠ

Yeah, semantics are weird, just saying, it ain't a perma-banned, unless Ginger does something derpy. Which he might. I dunno.

Ah ok.

#237841 storyyeller Thu, 28th Jun '12 6:03:57 PM from Appleloosa

if Ginger wants to appeal his ban, he needs to be the one to PM the mod that banned him. :/

I expect that he already has.

Life is simple: it has no nontrivial normal subgroups.

#237842 Japanese Teeth Thu, 28th Jun '12 6:04:00 PM from Meinong's jungle

Honestly, I think the only reason this didn't happen earlier is because the thread as a whole is so tolerant of his outbursts and didn't report him. I really hopes he comes back, but I understand why it happened.

Also several posters have pmed various mods on his behalf. The appeal is in process.

#237849 Drenius Thu, 28th Jun '12 6:08:36 PM from Northern Virginia

Still talking about Ginger, I see. Well, I guess it's better than pony bust sizes.

But as it stands It's a bit pointless to worry about his ultimate fate when we have no way of effecting the outcome, isn't it? Though to be honest, I hope he is shown leniency.
