- it is not, i overstepped, because i "felt funky", as i often do (i.e. making crass humor, schizoanswers or playing stupid/dumb, disagreeing for sake of feeling "unique" even if i agree but making me feel hurt in kind of way "not being genius" i want to be - selfish needs...

> porc needs to learn to post more coherently otherwise he will never be accepted anywhere

- thinking id write and reply in slovak then, but it is too late then. maybe it is just chat and users quantity (than quality, but that is for to explain some other time) which makes me whorey (edgy, "horny" for being weird... not that much pleasure, than audience... and power of internet, opinions on web (something to 45% similar to “The child who is not embraced by the village will burn it down to feel its warmth.”, but more about creating that love by force than being vurnerable...))

i didnt edited it, just closed it in "nsfl" spoiled. that it got deleted, was expected. didnt meant it to be, it was just poking fun of forum, cliques and my fantasy of how i see myself as "good/cool", when in fact i do this over myself to be/feel important...

I wonder how long it will take porc to answer all these questions

Why do you type so strangely? What led you to wanting to connect all the threads in the forum in such incomprensible manner?

I am sure there is internal logic to your method, but through the years I could never tell what hidden connections you saw when tsgging the threads like you did.

> So if someone is being annoying with things like tagging, guess what? Xenforo (the forum software that powers Agora) allows mods and admins to prevent users in specific roles from messing with thread tags. The solution is just to put that person into a role that doesn't allow tagging. That solves the behavior and allows the user to still participate on the forums

Okay, his tagging is annoying. Petition the admin to create a new user role just for him so he can't tag threads. He also spams links in chat, so you ban him from the chat or create a special chat room where he's isolated from everyone else. He keeps making threads and posts that most people find completely incomprehensible, so you limit him to a special sub-forum or make it so he has to ask permission before making a post. What's left for him to participate in at that point? You are policing everything he does and are effectively telling him "we are going to hold your hand until you start doing everything differently." And now, if you want to at least try to be fair, you're also committing yourself to doing all this stuff for every other user who might make a bunch of incomprehensible posts in the future. By creating all these special cases for this one particular user you've blurred the line between what is and isn't considered acceptable and have created a bunch of pointless containment forums/chats that make controlling the forum discourse more complicated, all while still effectively removing him from the site and accomplishing exactly the same thing as a ban. It would be pure mental gymnastics, all to get around having to say the b-word. What's worse, committing to that kind of hand-holding and hands-on moderation would set a bad precedent for the site in the future. I am not going to let Agora turn into another old web forum with a long list of rules and moderators who watch everyone like prison guards.

I've said my piece and am not going to waste any more time arguing over this unless it's with Porcupine himself.

Did the internet run out of porn or something?

> To use this same analogy (which is a stupid one because it implies that not being able to post on a website is as serious as starving to death), "corrective measures" in this situation would have meant locking the kid in a closet where nobody could hear him instead of kicking him out

Actually, it's an apt analogy because it compares appropriate levels of severity when it comes to responding to events. You modified the example to add nothing to it because both kicking the kid out and locking them in the closet would be excessive and the wrong solution

> I think you're just offended at the general concept of banning someone from posting on a website and are trying to pretend that coming up with a bunch of arbitrary rules designed to prevent a particular person from doing 99% of what they come to a website to do is somehow better because it technically isn't a ban.

Clearly you haven't been put into any sort of position of authority before, so I'll spell it out for you: moderators, or anyone with authority over a situation, are put in place to keep things in control. They have tools in place to help them to do this. Banning is an obvious one because it is generally the most extreme and one that people don't want to have happen since it involves removing a person entirely from the situation

To use this same analogy (which is a stupid one because it implies that not being able to post on a website is as serious as starving to death), "corrective measures" in this situation would have meant locking the kid in a closet where nobody could hear him instead of kicking him out. It's the same result with less bullshit and beating around the bush about what you're actually doing.

A ban kicks someone out entirely. Counteractive measures stops the unwanted behavior without kicking the user out for good. It's like saying that if your kid is hungry and they keep complaining, don't feed them food. Kick them out of the house since both solutions stop you from hearing the kid complain

>>0x00000d

> All of these things could be solved by ignoring Porc and/or limiting what he can do through adjusting user permissions in Xenforo. The jannies are literally retarded

Sounds functionally identical to a ban on posting to me.

A few users are already claiming things like your fanfic being sexfic, since they were never able to see it and now the mods deleted the original.

Difamation was to be expected, however I was surprised by how quickly the jannies were supported by people who seldomly posted or interacted with you. Do you have any thoughts on that?

I support the porc in exile.

I wouldn't have had any problem with this post on /main/ if you had done something like

Indian Altchan, "Hi, this is an Indian culture chan, are there other Indians here?"

See rules on self promotion, "The problem is never the plug; the low effort is the problem. If you're going to post a quality post in the correct thread that includes links to your stuff, I'm very inclined to allow it. But otherwise fuck off."

" *Porcupine had been:

Repeatedly flooding threads with low-quality replies and cross-links to other threads that were only tangentially related to the one he was posting in.

Making new threads where every post was copy-pasted from either another thread or another website.

Repeatedly flooding the chats with YouTube embeds that nobody watched.

Repeatedly flooding the chats with copy-pasted tweets and articles that nobody read.

Repeatedly spam-tagging threads with tags that didn't make any sense and that broke the search engine by making it turn up faulty results.

Repeatedly copy-pasting site content, including chat logs, into various AI things and either leaking it to the wider internet or reposting it back here."
