I mean, it's not totally surprising. The thread was pretty politically charged.
I had a whole follow up post about how that word gets used in games. But the thread got locked before I could post it.Now it's gonna be a week until I can post it.

Yeah, there's a reason I gave up on the site years ago. It's become the kind of place that gives the left a bad name. -

I honestly don't blame the mod staff, they are undoubtedly overworked.What I don't get is the person who would call for the mods rather than make a counter-argument.

Just mowed the lawn. I recommend physical labor as therapy. It does wonders for purging feelings of frustration.

If I'm being honest, I'm not surprised that I caught a temp ban. I'm a repeat offender. (I posted a Let's Go Darwin meme in a political thread.) My tone was flippant for such a touchy subject. I can see how that can come off as trolling.
The only surprise was the ban being a whole week.

More annoyingly, the message I got didn't specify what rule I broke, or what part of the offending post was in violation.
I assume someone thinks I was arguing in bad faith.

Strangething Oh, that would piss me off something awful. Iāve both received and issued my fair share of ātime-outā bans, but they have to come with an explanation. Even if that explanation is āI donāt have time to deall with all of this right now, but this fighting is getting unfriendly. Weāll have a chat after youāve all had a breakā.
