Basically SAID contributed nothing to ETB's workout thread. He decided to post pictures of HS boys. Hasbeen called him out for it, so did I. Granted, I was being a dick (yes I know you are going to highlight that), but he was taking away from the conservation and BR/AZ provide good shit to those workout threads. So we both get thread banned. ETB requested we get back in the thread if we behave, and we were going to behave, but cry4fail didn't allow it. So I started a new health thread for hasbeen and I to discuss. My thread started to get way more discussion than ETB's (even etb was using my thread). Then cry4fail decided to merge my thread to ETB's so hasbeen and I couldn't post there. I proceeded to make 2 different threads in which c4f deleted and then proceeded to basement ban me for 24 hours.

On top of this, he also deleted 4 of hasbeen's posts (as well as mine), because we disagreed with him on another thread. Say what you want, but he does abuse his mod powers to troll.

As for the workout thread, I posted there once and never really paid much attention to it, so my knowledge is as good as yours there. After they got thread-banned, they did try to start many other similar threads to get around the thread-banning, which were closed. But to me, while Said is a worthless douche, a lot of that probably was their grudge against him due to the RGIII praising/Browns mocking he did last year. I mean, these guys crying because someone made off-topic posts on a thread when they constantly go off-topic on threads to bash people they don't like is kind of laughable.

Part two is probably the thread about the people dying in the airplane/wing-walking accident. I eventually thread-banned Said for being a douche on that one (no idea why that hadn't happened earlier), but those guys completely derailed it by constantly bitching about it. And, interestingly, they were pissed off because F4F and, you know, his overbearing, stifling, hateful moderating self, hadn't banned Said from the site.

It gets kind of comical. If you're part of their group, you shouldn't be modded ever for any reason. But if not, fuck it, kick that bastard off the site because they add nothing. They're as bad about being a hypocrite as far as modding goes as Belly is when it comes to the Constitution.

I'm going to quote a post I already made in the basement to describe why a thread was moved to the basement. The thread in question was made by hasbeen and I moved it there as this was the day after threadbanning 3 people from the health and exercise thread (said, like_That, and hasbeen) after hasbeen was threadbanned from a second thread (one regarding the dayton airshow crash for continuing to personally attack said, as he was the instigator in the first thread, I thread banned him after he started personal attacks again so the situation didn't devolve too much again). Eventually Heretic threadbanned Said from the dayton thread as well. I am also adding information in this post to give a full picture.

Hasbeen was threadbanned from two separate threads for personal attacks. In one of those threads, two other people were thread banned as well for personal attacks (Said, like_That and hasbeen).

The first thread was regarding exercise/fitness/health.

The second thread was regarding the deadly crash at the Dayton air show.

This thread was a very weak attempt at getting around the thread bans by starting a new thread to discuss the same topic(s)(Bold = insert; the thread I moved was about health and exercise and laughing at death regarding the dayton air show). Like_That tried a similar approach yesterday by creating new threads on the same topic when he was thread banned from the exercise thread. I kept unapproving the threads, but as he would not stop I eventually just gave him a 1 day basement ban since he was very insistent on repeating his behavior and trying to get around the punishment.

Under the current rule set up, we are to thread ban for violation of the rules. But if that does not work then we basement ban. Instead of just banning hasbeen to the basement for a period of 1 day or so I decided it would be simpler and easier to just move this thread down there as the normal rules don't apply to the basement (with a few exceptions) since this was his first attempt at trying to get around the thread ban.

Like_That and Hasbeen both know what they did, they were just trying to be clever to try to work the system. But it doesn't work that way.

In the original thread about health and exercise that was recently created Said posted some information legitimately responding to questions. Then hasbeen comes along and repeatedly starts calling said_aouita creepy multiple times in multiple posts. Eventually Like_That jumps in and says that said_aouita would suck a person's dick (I'm assuming this was the coaches name of a wrestling program) if he told said to. At this point said_aouita calls Like_that an asshole.

Now I finally see the thread and see things are spiraling out of control. And I end up thread banning all three as all three have decided to make it personal. I didn't distinguish between who started it.

Said_aouita just accepts the thread ban. He doesn't complain. He doesn't try to get around it. He deals with it.

Like_that however is furious about the thread ban.

Hasbeen is a little miffed, but not overly bothered. He tries posting again on tapatalk to get around the thread ban. I PM him and tell him if he continues to try to get around the threadban he will get a brief basement ban.

Like_That does the same thing in trying to get around the thread ban and I give him the same warning. He also creates a new "health and exercise thread" in an attempt to divert all the discussion to that thread so he could still participate. I just merge the thread with the original thread as there was no reason for duplicate threads. He repeats this again. I unapprove his second attempt. He repeats it again but this time calling it a health and nutrition thread and justifies that since it covers nutrition it is different. I unapprove it again. He tries posting on the original thread with tapatalk to get around it. I unapprove that as well. I believe he makes a total of 2 tapatalk posts and 4 "new" threads in an attempt to get around the thread ban. I eventually give him a 1 day basement ban as he just refuses to accept his current thread ban.

I figured the way of dealing with Like_That's duplicate threads was okay as we've done that in the past with Sleeper and ND threads. He had been threadbanned from an ND thread. Then he just creates multiple ND threads to try to troll. They were unapproved and we did a temporary ban on sleeper since he refused to stop.

Eventually like_that resurrects the old Paleo thread and that's fine as that was a pre-existing thread.

If you want to go look, I never deleted any posts. I simply unapproved threads/posts. I didn't delete as it creates and preserves a record of what actually happened.
