Unban Binar

[Palem]

So of all the times you could have swung the banhammer it was over "clear fw"? I see you recently just EDITTED posts (although no reason explaining why the post had to be edited), yet you deleted BinBin's? So to someone not following the thread closely, no one knows that he tried to post 4 times. Why not do what you did and just edit his post saying "Inappropriate comment. Spam" or whatever other reason you deem the post to be edited.

Because the point of removing off topic material is to help facilitate discussion and having 6 "real" posts and 5 "<removed> posts doesn't do that.

I like to do the <removed> posts when someone has posted something objectionable/reported it so that the people that wanted it actioned can actually see that it was actioned and as a visual reminder to other posters that they should be following the rules.

Having 1 post removed and thinking maybe something weird happened so you repost it. Yeah, I could see being upset with getting a sudden ban. I could even see it if it happened twice. But after 4 or 5 posts of the same thing being posted and removed, its pretty clear that Binar wasn't randomly trying to post a forum trope and was suddenly banned for no good reason. If he wanted to ask me why I was deleting his posts I would have been glad to tell him with no action needed.

So people accuse you of not doing your job and you attempt to prove them wrong by making a big deal out of a non issue?

I banned someone for 24 hours for spamming off topic posts over 3 threads. It's not like I perbanned him for saying Taylor Swift is a [content removed]
