Perma banning DayOfDoom as a joke was not okay (hexbear.net)

Is this another instance of the mod log not telling the whole story? Anytime I see a recognized poster perm banned for anything other than being completely heinous I have to scratch my head a little. Making a bad post and then ban evading doesn't feel like it should warrant a "never come back" kind of response. This is just one example, I've seen it before with others too and have always gone "huh, really?" But maybe there was something they did that was so bad it was purged / doesn't show in the mod log.

Anyway RIP DayOfDoom we'll miss your weird ass posts. Unless you did something bad that the modlog doesn't show in which case I'll just delete this whole thread.

"Ban evasion" tends to be repeating the same things that led to the previous ban or, in DayOfDoom's case, referencing past DM harassment. We discuss any ban before it happens and consideration is always given to members of the community.

Oh dang, if he was harassing people in the DMs then yeah, he's gotta go. I guess I will leave this thread up though so folks can see your response here so folks know what's up.

That does actually suck, had funny posts. Rip, their DayofDoom came.

Where did they reference past DM harassment? Was it their comment in the general thread (around 8 hours ago)?

~~I can't tell if this is a joke~~ 😔

~~Were they really banned? I liked them, I'll miss them, I wish I knew why they got banned ~~

Now I wish I didn't know

I can't find anything else besides making a shit post in c/chapotraphouse and then apparently ban evasion?

[-] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 14 points 5 months ago

I mean the mod log says they got banned for ban evasion and doesn't have a time on it so. Yeah seems like it

He was just a weird poster that was really nice most of the time but also made some creepy posts now and again. Most of us thought it was just irony posting gone slightly too far but maybe it was not

Some of yall need to work on your sociopath radar. The user in question has been doing creepy unhinged crap for a long time.

[-] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 6 points 5 months ago

This site is so irony poisoned that it can be tough to know sometimes when someone is being serious and when someone is being genuinely weird.

That guy's responses to my posts made me uncomfortable, but I could never really put my finger on why. And the comments they made towards me didn't really have anything report worthy. With everything else we're finding out now, I'm glad the user is banned
