I mean, think of those people in your life that are too sensitive to ever be real with. You keep them at arm's distance and consider it a success if you have a conversation with them and they don't lose their goddamn minds over something dumb. That's SA. Now, a system where he empowers the worst posters and gets $10 from those who re-register? That's brilliant. So I can see why it makes sense in his mind. If he has a populace dumb enough to keep giving him money, why wouldn't you make it so they were getting banned constantly? ...not since they closed helldump, anyway. Heh. But how it should work is that someone is acting like a bitch in a thread, and it gets handled in that thread. The Helldump threads I remember seeing had some no-life nobody looking up social security numbers or whatever. Perhaps they weren't all that way, but man... taking a goddamn internet grudge to a different thread is pathetic. (But in a system where you can't lay into people, like on SA, of course that's exactly what's going to happen.) it doesn't make them any less shitty or whatever but if you couldn't predict that exact reaction out of them... It is delightfully predictable over there. Perhaps that is the appeal to a certain kind of poster over there that hasn't left yet. I feel I have a lengthy post in me at some point about various kinds of failed forum moderation, and that shithole has certainly blazed some of the finest trails in that area. That being said, I'm trying to get word on whether or not the Saints can appeal this nonsense. I mean, Payton was meant to receive $7 million this year. The guy probably has a mortgage or whatever. I know he won't ever need to pay for a drink again in the city, but you can't just take a guy's salary for an entire year when he lacks the ability to enter the free market because it's a congress-approved exemption for the closed shop.
