Why was Bastiat's The Law banned?

Hmmm, meanwhile I got mods re-writing thread titles to take a left handed whack at me for some reason.

That since got changed back.

I ask again...WTF?

Thread title modified by CaseyJones to read: OMG the "lady: who covered AFs face in that picture(Not AF, never leaves the comfort zone)

Who doesn't leave what comfort zone?

Was I just insulted here?

WTF???
 
Website moderation can so easily be solved through AI and a more robust rep system.
Yeah, I agree, bans should require like a 2/3 majority of mods, and a plurality of members. I am tired of renegade loose cannon mods going around banning everyone.

or you could have the site owner over-rule frivilous bans.
on one hand, the owner wouldn't want to subvert the power he grants to others... but at the same time- there is no check on that power if the owner does nothing.
 
Sailingaway. I have asked you twice now if you are the one who told Cajun I reported him/her. Since you don't seem to want to answer the question I will assume it was you. So now people can't even report your Rand bashing buddies without you telling them they were reported and who reported them. Is THAT allowed? You now think your job as a moderator here is to protect your Rand bashing buddies while snitching on the Rand supporters for reporting their posts? That's called an abuse of power SA. You need to hang up your mod hat. Your actions continue to be unbearable.
 
i don't really think this is a case of out-of-control mods but maybe it is the site rules? I don't know, I really don't, but it is really depressing seeing every talented poster get banned from this forum.
 
Is this the Ron Paul board or the Rand Paul board. If the latter the name and logo should be changed so we can go about our business. Cajuncocoa has been permanently banned so excuse me if I don't boo hoo over BTL's temp ban. Who btw was the biggest asshat toward me when I joined here.
 
But why was Rev9 permanently banned? [...] Unban Rev9.

Damn. I was just wondering a day or two ago why I hadn't seen any recent posts by Rev9. I just figured he was working on a project or something.

A permaban? That sucks. That *really* sucks. He could be abrasively blunt sometimes. But he frequently put words and phrases together in surprising and delightful ways.

A tempban, I could see. But a permaban? Damn. Not that my opinion is likely to matter, but I agree: unban Rev9.

Patriot One, I just saw this. I didn't know you reported cajuncocoa. Did you? I do ignore you since you seem to go out of your way to provoke me, and I don't see why I should give you what you want, however, I also don't see every post you write.

Also, I haven't seen any 'Rand bashing' in quite some time, so I don't know why you keep saying that. If something happened today, I haven't been here much, today, just in and out.

i don't know the post in question but Bastiat was probably the most honest, politicaly savvy poster on this board.

No doubt. That's why it pisses me off to see all the negative soul sucking vampires around here being hosted by Sailingaway while she's bans people like Bastiat. He was a positive member of this board intellectually and mentally for what this board USE TO BE. Now it's become SA's alter ego and if people don't agree with her and her Rand bashing buddies she bans them. He did NOTHING wrong today. The banning was so absurd it is obvious it was a revenge banning.

Sailingaway is a she? Did not expect that one.
 
Dear Moderator's...

Is there other mods who can review Bastiat's postings and unban him if they deem it undeserved? I can't remember another time I have objected to a banning but this one is so patently absurd to me I can only think it is about SA's personal vendetta as opposed to Bastiat's posts today.

As a general rule, mods don't mess with other mods' bans.
