[Cabwi Desco] One Nation, Under Your Belief System

That's actually one of the reasons I don't really advocate automatically shoving everyones' banning thread into HoS. This way, people anywhere can be linked to the thread where they got banned and see for themselves how they behaved, rather than believing their bullshit claims of how they were winning the argument until they were kicked out for "embarrassing" everyone else with their l33t debating skillz.

Suggestion: to create a special forum with the banning threads that can be viewed by all and sundry (along with any HoSed threads linked there).

That's what the Shit List is for.

Yes, but the evidence threads presented there cannot be accessed w/o logging on.

Is there a statistic if any (and if so, how many) of the banned tried sneaking back in under new names?

*checks the chronicle forum* there've been a number of numbnuts that decided to sneak back in, but it doesn't seem to happen with that much regularity. i can probably count the amount of people that've done so within the last year on one hand.

Don't the banned usually get a "BANNED" thing underneath their names in place of their titles? How come Desco still has his "Padawan Learner"? Temp ban?

Sometimes, but not always.

For some reason, I'm now imagining a ban pic with close-up of a Quintesson and a caption that says "Innocent!"

Ah, so it's not automatic, the admins have to insert the title? Okay.

Jesus shit bannanas CD is a moron. But did he really have to get banned? I was having fun reading his "you're a mean poo-poo head! you be wrong!" arguements.

If I remember correctly, Rev Prez pulled it off, and we actually kept him around for a little while.

Even the white-supremacist troll Arminius tried to put up a pretense of making arguments, citing sources, answering rebuttals, etc. The most recent batch of trolls state opinions rather than arguments, and then they get all pissy when they're expected to actually defend their positions. That's one of the reasons I sometimes just unceremoniously kick someone out on his ass; if he's not even trying, then we're certainly not missing out on anything if he's dumped.

High School/Collage should be out in the USA soon, even more dump shits released into the wilds of the 'net.

It also doesnt help that 3 years ago the internet was not nearly as big as it is today. And it is growing all the time.

Normally with an influx of stupid shits.

Well so much for our nice auto-turbolaser turrets and hundred-meter quadanium-steel armorplate. These trolls nowadays would only need a few old Maxim MGs in sandbag nests

We figured it out after a short period of time, but he amused us.

You contribute a disturbing Nicholas Cage fetish...

Plus you seem to know your sci-fi.

Yes, is it just me or are trolls not getting the BANNED title but kept with the old one? :S

Out of interest, how often does the pledge of allegience have to be taken?

From my experience, it was done in the morning before classes started. I'm not sure if other school districts had different policies, but I'm pretty certain once daily was the requirement for recitation.

That's how it was for me, too. From kindergarten to 8th grade for me.

For the one year I spent in American high school (Maryland, actually), that was also the case in my experience.

That was awesome. Of course, he'll run off to other boards proclaiming that SD.Net kicks people out for having dissenting viewpoints, but I have a big grin on my face regardless.

You have that grin because you have an ignorant fear and hatred of christ, his teachings and all his followers. Admit it. You were just happy to see a christian be persecuted...you....you....persecutor!
