(16,450 posts)believe that someone who went through the trouble of putting a DU'ers name in his trash list, forgot the reason why? Just a short time later?
he LOL'ed at a Duer who is very sick, then started a thread about cutting his lip as soon as he deleted the op where he was getting his ass handed to him. Throughout that thread he was asked to edit it out and told why, he refused and doubled down.
A host of GD writing op's that dismissed the supreme court decision as irrelevant, then starts an op about his poor little cut lip as being important issue to discuss.
Curious as to why it withstood the alert? He edited the op after the alert, so it could not be alerted on again. That is how he got away with abusing the alert system. It caught up to him. He would right something relatively bland, have a buddy alert on it, then edit it to say whatever the fuck he wanted and have it stand. When people got offended and replied in kind, they got the hides. He would also edit his obnoxious posts, that some didn't take to kindly to when the reply was sent to a jury, to make it seem as if he was the one being unduly picked on when jurists would read the thread.
When that failed he used his host position to lock his own thread, after the other hosts said they would not. Hosts do not lock threads as a favor to du'ers. I a duer wants to lock their own thread there is a self-delete for them. Hosts do no do that as favors. Despite the consensus among the hosts to not lock he talked one into locking for him. She was called out on it and unlocked it. But lo and behold he was right there seconds later to lock it himself. -Abuse of the hosting privileges is a DU banning offense.
If you are okay with that more power to you. IMO it degrades the board and its intended purpose while mocking not only the owners of the site, but the people who have real concerns and try to address them in a civil manner.
