    To put it in general terms:

    Apolyton has very lax restrictions on topics and views that can be posted about. All non-spambot bannings since the current rules took effect (well before I took over management of the site) have been cumulative offence bans which ended up with "straw that broke the camels back" situations. No single post will accurately describe them.

    (Not to diminish the "straw" subjects, but generally we give some allowance even in regards to rather despicable opinions.)

      You have straw in your head.
      What's to be done with you, strawhead boy?
      Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

        Are you saying these straws represent events of rules breaking, and that you won't ban people for breaking rules until they have broken the rules many, many times.

          It's impossible to make a list of everything you've said. That's what a search engine is for.

            Well, is there a sample of ones you consider particularly egregarious? You piqued my curiousity.

              Ben had to take a holiday as he was too awesome for Apolyton.

              He was PWNing everybody in every debate which left battered and bruised egos in need of time to recover.

              That is why Ben was banned.

                No, I'm saying that the rules may not have been broken by any given event, but the cumulation of them may break the rules.

                  In other words, since Aeson is a nice guy and trying to be diplomatic about this...

                  It OK to be an ASS occasionally... but frankly, if you continue to be an ASS and disrupt this site with your continual bigoted and racist comments, you will be held accountable.
                  It's that simple.

                            That's an accusation, and I don't see any evidence. Why don't you think my question is relevant? Do you know what that word means?

                              Apparently more than you do. I submit the forum history of Apolyton as my evidence. Therefore...your question has no relevance. Why would you ask me such a stupid and condescending question anyway? Perhaps looking back over the myriad of posts where people have pointed out these things to both you and Ben combined with some serious introspection might be what is needed for you. However, I feel certain that you won't do that and will come back with what you assume is a quippy comment that tries to deny your past posts.

                              The truth is...you have my sympathy and I do hope for both of you.

                                The past posts that I requested? The request that you call irrelevant?

                                Sorry, but can you explain further how you understand what relevant means more than I do?

                                Did you just expect me to bend over and get gang banged or what? **** you *******!
