It's not really ironic as I don't recall Fenris ever having been in the "Let's give Nightsie like a bajillion chances to not be a fuckup" crowd.

And honestly I <3 Fifth and all but the whole Nightshine getting banned thing really puts this whole ordeal as a net gain in my book. Thanks, Fenny!

See I kinda thought shitting up every thread he posted in and pissing everyone off was a legitimate reason to ban someone, if for no other reason than being the identification and extermination of an obvious troll before he gets a few months to continue being an obvious troll who shits up every thread he posts in and pisses everyone off.

True, better late than never.

Still late, though! I mean, it's not like the original Nightshine incident really was about the modders being too charitable. Someone got a temporary ban over it, and I got this neat infraction. Vaguely ironic!

Yeah, it's like we're all real people with thoughts, opinions, and feelings that have had years to get to know each other in this whole big community deal.

I mean, how fucking stupid is that, amirite?

Yeah, dude seriously turned out to be the single worst person in the world to spark BIG MOD DRAMA over and all said, we really should have banned him two or three infractions ago.

But guys, on the one hand there's the point that we should give people more of an advance warning before we even infract them, and on the other hand there's the point that we should have banned Nightshine more or less immediately after he turned up; I know they're different situations and I'm not trying to say or convince anyone they're the same, but it still kinda sends mixed signals.

Welp, I could get involved and point out the Nightshine thing was less about him not getting banned right away and more about other people getting banned right away while he didn't get in trouble at all, OR

OR

I could just point out that it's over and done with and in the past and we should all probably just walk away from it. He's banned now, Nonsie isn't. Doesn't matter, anymore.

Well, I guess it's one of those things where in a community that tends to act silly in threads one of the admins bans nine people for acting silly in a thread it can set off a big to-do. Considering that there really wasn't so much more to discuss about VGCats (and really it should have probably been in the Books and Comics thread anyway and been given a title that suggested it was about something but that's Bellsy for ya and we luvs him for it), if it had been me I'd have just said "Welp that's the end of that chapter" and closed the thread. But I don't have a vagina so what do I know about modlerating? Eh? Eh?

Then I guess whoever felt like continuing the silly discussion about Wonka could have made a silly Wonka thread and there wouldn't have been this whole shitstorm. But that's just my 2 cents.

Shhhhhhhhhhh. It'll be ok.
