    So let me get this straight, you can be a complete snarky jerk for multiple years here, get banned/suspended multiple times, and return under a new moniker when you finally got perma-banned?

    Man.....talk about chances!

    Who on here isn't a complete snarky jerk? I thought it was a requirement for posting on S2.

    Not everyone has been suspended multiple times and then perma-banned. That's more of what I'm getting at... but yeah.. the only reason I ask is because it has been SO much more peaceful w/the guy gone. Much less drama here.

    Oh you are correct. I had to zoom on my ipad but it definitely looks like "40 is a load of shit"

    Definitely not as funny :/

    Trust me, there are been a lot of talk about this amongst the staff. IMO PapaG is a unique case. He is and always has been a very knowledgeable and passionate Blazer fan. He is not and never has been a troll. Where he gets into trouble is his interactions with other fans. I think just about everyone agrees that he has some solid takes about the Blazers. As soon as he created his NewsSource moniker he PM'd me and told me it was him. I respect that. He wasn't trying to hide or fool anyone. He wants to talk about the team he loves in a place full of others who love the same team.

    That said, because of his past history if he does start insulting others again he will be banned. No suspensions, no cute edits, he'll be gone. He knows it's wrong. Doesn't matter if someone insults him first or someone else steals his lunch money or whatever. If he really needs to insult anyone he can insult me. Anyone else and he's gone.

    Very well said. I'd like to put out a plea to all the posters here not to try and get papag banned. If he is going to start fresh and change his ways we must allow it, and encourage it.

    I'm not upset that he is back. I don't care. Just trying to get & state the facts of what's going down really... and SPD gave the reasons which are cool with me. (not that my opinion matters, haha).


    Understood. Thanks for the explanation SPD.

    SPD, I would like an exemption for me. PapaG can call me any name in the book and I won't take umbrage. In fact, that goes for the entire forum. Anyone can call me anything.

    People would complain that the mods weren't being fair. They wouldn't look at who was being insulted but instead that we allowed someone to get away with insulting members. The reason why I allow myself to be insulted is because I often edit insults to be directed at me.
