You know what come to think of it maybe banning people is a very American thing to do, I mean after all this is a country that murdered thousands of Native Americans for land, enslaved African Americans for hundreds of years, still to this day over half the country hates the gays, over half the country hates Hispanics, and women still make less than men. Congrats Nate you have the power and you flaunt it maybe you are a great American after all. Since I am obviously struggling to decide whether Nate's banning of PapaG was American or Un-American, I wish PapaG was here to respond then I could safely choose the other side. :-(
Re: Why was the "Why was PapaG Banned?" thread closed? The mods didn't check their white male privilege. :MARIS61:
Re: Why was the "Why was PapaG Banned?" thread closed? What I want to know is, Why don't they reinstate Papa G? No sense turning a fools action into a complete fuck up.
Re: Why was the "Why was PapaG Banned?" thread closed? I closed it because of these three posts: He goes from admitting that he likes to rile people up and argue then a day later he goes on a rant about how picked on he is when he riles people up and then throws out a bunch of insults because he doesn't have PapaG to rile up and argue with. There was no more discussion to be had on the subject. People just wanted to complain about how oppressed they are. If you want to discuss PapaG you can do it with me via PM.
Re: Why was the "Why was PapaG Banned?" thread closed? I asked for suggestions, ideas or help to make sure that this wouldn't just keep happening over and over and over again. No one offered anything. The only replies were more complaints about staff. PapaG had promised multiple times to not personally insult people anymore. He has been taken off being suspended and taken off being permanently banned before. He won't stop this behavior. Again, if you want to blame someone blame me. This is my fault for allowing this to go on as long as it has.
Re: Why was the "Why was PapaG Banned?" thread closed? Pretty obvious there were several suggestions offered. You just didn't like them because they involved reigning in NB3.
Re: Why was the "Why was PapaG Banned?" thread closed? I have a problem with someone calling members of this forum bigots and racists. Maybe you don't but I do. There was nothing more being added to the discussion of why PapaG was banned. Only bitching.
Re: Why was the "Why was PapaG Banned?" thread closed? I have un-banned PapaG before. Un-banning did not work. The personal insults continued. How exactly would reigning in Nate guarantee that PapaG wouldn't continue insulting people when he gets upset?
Re: Why was the "Why was PapaG Banned?" thread closed? My suggestion is let papag come back with a different name (if he hasn't already). Knowing this board, if he is discover he will get a hard time from this board and it will bug papag, like last time. If he was smart about the whole thing he would keep his identity a secret which would force him to change styles and not be rude in his posting style. It sucks to start all over and build credibility again, but fair punishment and it allows Papag to come back with his takes only with a much different demeanor. Win/Win
