This means no more trolling? no more ugly unfunny comics?

uh-oh -- traffic will go down by at least 50%

Wow -- what was the final straw?

Took you guys long enough. $5 says he makes a sock account and comes back.

Ah well good luck with that then. :)

I'm surprised it was that and not his stalking people over at their journals.

No matter, though, good call.

lol aw :(

He did a horrible job of trollin the internet though. The trick is not to be bat shit insane but fix certain minutiae in details claiming to actually be apart of something you are not in real life. Giving people a false sense of who you truly are on the internets so they accept you, and then you find something that you know will get under their skin and you act as if it's either the worst or best thing to come about. When they argue with you pick at the small things that upset them and betray their trust. That's key, belonging, then taking them for granted.

Fare the well Lather, you just weren't a good troll. Now who wants to go post pictures of animal cruetly under lj cuts in vegetarian communities with a heading that says something along the lines for a fine recipe of salds?

THANK YOU.

(What did he do, officially, to earn it?)

*edit* NM, figure it out by reading other comments.

Thanks to you and Wes for doing this.

This really was the best thing for the sanity/maturity of the community.

For the record, I'm a slow and steady wins the race kinda guy. I do not care for knee-jerk moderation. A few weeks ago, I exchanged messages with Lather in an attempt to get him to re-evaluate how he was addressing the community. I asked him to consider a new approach if he wanted to have an actual impact on the discussion here. I really do consider the internet to be a fairly harsh place, so I sorta figure everyone here can take care of themselves for the most part. Even so, this last bit was going too far.

I appreciate the input other people have given me over the problems that arise here. Please continue to let me know when you have issues.

no, we still have plenty of people to call us fascists for banning genocidal maniacs.

they complain to each other in the insular ban-happy conservatism community.
