[serious] Off Topic Moderation Input - Part 2

[Hauldren Collider]

The funny thing is, I don't know that DFG's last thread was technically racist, since he was doing a Humpty Dumpty and using the "N-word" to mean something other than its actual, accepted meaning. Apparently "******," to him, means "dumb person of any race at all." He still should have known better, but his actual intent, for once, was not apparently racist.

I don't buy it, Elok. He was backpedaling there.

[Guynemer]

Looks like I missed all the fun.

[Tupac Shakur]

Honestly, this is so racist, I can't tell if he's joking or not.

He's not. Sloww's racism has been overt for a long time now.

Joking or not, it's still hella racist.

[SlowwHand]

You can't? Must be that dry West Texas wit. You're so stupid.

[DaShi]

He was banned for calling them dumb? Really? Auto thieves don't really make my list of smart people. Maybe they are and I'm wrong. I'm just stating my impression.

[SlowwHand]

Well sure, that's the easy solution.

[Zoetstofzoetje]

could everyone else be banned too, to be on the safe side?

[SlowwHand]

Can we please ban this racist, too?

"Dumb" is not a race. Just because I don't like dumb people, like, ooooh, DaShi, doesn't mean that I should be banned.

[ZEE]

All the moar reason to respect those of us that survive the proper way.

[Elok]

I still feel bad for him, though he was racist and posted a lot of rubbish. From the sound of that deleted post, he was in bad shape, financially, and upset. Not that that's an excuse for his utterly nonsensical misuse of the n-word, but I do feel a bit bad for him.

[loinburger]

And then once he's accumulated 6 months worth of offenses and is banned, somebody will complain that he was banned for too long. "All DFG did was post fifty racist threads despite being repeatedly warned not to (including an explicit warning that his next racist thread would result in a six month ban), why was he banned for six months???"

[DaShi]

From how I understand the current process, Sloww is probably banned for that. It's just that he won't serve it until he's accumulated 6 months worth of banning time.

[Tupac Shakur]

he started a "dumb ******s" stole my truck thread. I was surprised that the thread was deleted and not just closed.
