SoylentNews is people
SoylentNews
Seems that The Mighty Buzzard is tired of winning. Filters and mod-bans, IRC kicks, anyone who proves that TMB is a loser in debate sooner or later finds themselves blocked from SoylentNews. And seems it is just this one dev who is asserting these admin powers, and lobbying for more draconian rules.
AzumaHazuki was kicked from #soylent by Aphrodite!Aphrodite@dodekatheon.olympus.gr [(TheMightyBuzzard) No reason given]
No reason given, no reason needed, and indeed a complete lack of reason, other than Buzzard displeasure.
*TheMightyBuzzard* FatPhil, Fnord666, Bytram, chromas: adding 24h to each subsequent ban for the same thing (not doubling except the 2nd time, just cause math) sound reasonable to you folks?
Come now, Miffed Bussdart, just go with the shadow-banhammer, for great discussion control. And the provocation?
*AzumaHazuki* is carrion-breath here showing his ignorance again? i have him muted so i can't see
[15:06:22] *c0lo* Moving goal posts, TMB. Spare your back for those trimmings in the church
[15:06:31] *AzumaHazuki* oh, but be careful, you might get !quiet'd or even kickbanned for being ruuuuuuuuuuude
[15:06:41] *AzumaHazuki* because freeze peach
[15:06:44] *TheMightyBuzzard* goal posts? you went entirely off topic so there are no goal posts.
[15:07:20] *TheMightyBuzzard* AzumaHazuki, yes, you might. you've been warned about shitting up the place with personal attacks. that goes even for ones on me.
Personal attacks on the poor little TMB! Life is so unfair! But at least now he can shit post in peace.
And, in the mean time, aristarchus has been mod-banned again, because some new user modded posts the same way as aristarchus did? How convenient, we get all the Buzzard opposition out of the way in one fowl swoop! Now the Runaway Buzzard Gun Blog is complete, the best of Oklahoma and Arkansas, and nothing of value is gained. But the dream of a user moderated site that was BuckFeta is dead. Rest in Pieces.

Call them whatever you want, then.
And calling him names does make sense? If positive, what is the sense of it? Getting kickbanned from IRC?
Besides, there's at least an inconsistency between setting him on /ignore but still hooking into opportunities to jab him blindly. Mind if you resolve the isue in your mind? Like, you want to ignore him (then you let aside the blind jabs too) or you want to take abs at him (then where's he sense of filter his... whatever... out and stay blind). Unless you actually want to take blind jabs at him, in which case fall back on the "where's the sense of it?".
Disagree. I don't see the sense of doing so - he's just one of many, nothing special. Even if there would be a rational reason to try it (there isn't), why I would waste my time with attempts to destroy something he doesn't value?
He is "at peace" with him (even when it involves a great deal of cognitive dissonance) and he doesn't care if you (or anyone else for the matter) are at peace with him. For him, it is enough that he "knows the truth", whether you or others agree with him is irrelevant.
