a specific complaint

it's only a matter of time

should keep it open until momus can weigh in

I'm just starting to feel self-conscious about how many threads I end up being the last poster to that get locked, and having been banned before for being "too meta" I'm trying to be conscientious about not doing that again.

when an SB meant banishment from the site forever. Now that it is more of a 30 day timeout to reassess your posting style
It does still mean this fwiw, it just people need to have a chance or two before it's permanent. If people keep getting SBd and come back with more of the same, it's going to get permanent for them.

i personally invite this "thread lock" because we're going to accomplish fuck all talking about this.

Kate, I hope you're reading this before they lock it. Four important points from someone who was SB'd too.

• 30 days is not a long time.
• It's not really a big deal.
• Most people just click SB because its funny not because they hate you.
• See u in 29.

I mean, shit, J0rdan's probably gonna get SB'd soon, and everyone love J0rdan!

If people keep getting SBd and come back with more of the same, it's going to get permanent for them.

or until Louis comes back with a new screen name, which I always have trouble getting adjusted to

it's like an unexpected christmas when i come home in the afternoon, open the comp, and get to feast on a 150+ post suggest ban analyze buffet

Most people just click SB because its funny not because they hate you.

yeah riiiight

yall i'm goin down so soon - i'm gonna miss ilx over xmas - my favorite time of ilx - but such is life

xp - sb'd u for that

:-)

rip

i took a month off recently and it was fine btw

that's assuming that a mod would have nothing else better to do than unban people on Christmas.

that r his unbanning could be a "christmas miracle"

jokes tho, plz don't sb j0rdan

ehnh - I'm just still slightly bummed that LJ didn't get to return on my birthday.

J51dan

that doesn't work

sb'd u for that

Giving a reason for the banning is harder to do. It's not always obvious why people have clicked SB, and there'd be a lot of judgement call involved. It also seems like in the majority of cases people know what's done it, or must have an inkling. Posters don't keep their problems with people quiet here, exactly.

So we can rest assured all 51 sb's against kate were carefully vetted and aligned with posts the mods confirmed were objectionable and disruptive to the board. Sounds like a lot trouble vs having mods you know moderate.

MERRY SBs TO ALL, AND TO ALL A GOOD BAN

Twelve cankles swearing, eleven Jaggers jackin...

fiiiive deeeeez nuuuuts

i was in canada this weekend and was like "What's French Snoop Dogg's favorite number? Diiiiix neeeeeeuuuffff"

worth noting that according to kates blog she liked the sb system when it bannd people she agreed were deserving

don't blame the player

Blogging about a message board is to meta for me to wrap my brain around

I take jjusten's comment as a warning that if we veer into that territory, this thread will be locked and end this discussion.

yeah see actually it was just basically meant as "hey guys please dont be dicks" but hey, whatever.

thanks tho for keeping that discussion on track

wouldn't composing The 12 Days of Suggest Ban be a more productive activity?

and a pato in a pear tree

the 51 days of christmas

kinda appreciated how she just launched into it like it was a totally ordinary topic - intense post def

xxp - i prefer "and what in a pear tree" tbh

so sarahel, the next time you ask for a clarification on a mod policy, im just going to tell you that the question was answered but you probably missed it because you were to busy making up christmas songs about sbs
