If they don't want banned, don't troll.

Lol fuck off and fuck yourself are not even close to the same thing.

If someone says either of those to me, I'm taking it the exact same way. How are they different in any appreciable way?

You can't thread ban him when nobody else has been getting banned for trolling.

Just because it was wrong in the past doesnt mean we shouldnt do it right going forward

You set an ugly precedent by banning the retaliation and not the instigator.

Then again, that's what happens all the time.

Then I believe the correct thing to do would post a warning about it in the thread that going forward, trolling will result in a thread ban. You can't just ban him and then say going forward you will be thread banned.

They were thread banned from a thread for jumping thedynasty (who hasn't instigated a damn thing around here in about 18 months, if ever) on post number fucking one of a thread, had zero to do with jordo.

How does that set any bad precedent?

Well considering the last however many posts have been about the Browns thread...

I guess Webbie wasn't trolling when he jumped in on that thread? He never posts in Browns threads.

That instance wasn't, but banning like_that from the Browns thread would be.

To an extent. That particular instance to jordo was unprovoked and only made because of who it was and not what they said, which is the issue.

I was just saying if we're going to ban people all year from season threads for trolling like a jordo, lotz, etc., posts like that have to be candidates too

As I mentioned, you almost have to put a warning in the thread before banning anyone.

I rarely even notice jordo on Browns threads, so his trolling can't be that bad. My guess is he mostly does it in retaliation for being jumped for disagreeing with Browns fans.

I agree with GoChiefs, someone should post a warning, and from here on out it won't be tolerated.

Absolutely in a thread like that. Now in that one last night there where they start derailing from post one there is no point in firing off a warning shot, it just needed fixed before the thread was DOA

I don't think anybody is disagreeing with the thread ban from last night. It was definitely a warranted ban.

Yeah, I'm just trying to delineate since there's two topics at hand here (it started about last night and became Browns)

I went ahead and posted a warning. One of the big problems is, I, for instance, don't have the ability to unapprove posts in Pro forums, so even though a post my get infracted, it's still there for everyone to see and react to, causing a bigger shit storm.

And obviously everyones opinion of trolling is different.
