Exactly. And socks often enough out great conversations. Sh or he did the research for a lot of the comments. And they brought something to the table.

Banning should be seen as an extreme last resort. And those calls for violence seem more like desperation or frustration. Not necessarily calls for violence and planning.

A week long ban should have been sufficient. Or a month long ban. Not a permanent ban.

Threats of violence, humorous, satire, or serious, are a threat to the future well being of SaidIt.

Tyranny is always looking for an excuse to shut down SaidIt.

    What was Carswell banned for? What was Socks initial ban for?

      you don't contribute much to Saidit

      Agreed, I am mostly a weekend user.

      you get someone banned who does contribute many times more than you do

      I didn't get anyone banned. The user in question was banned because she broke the rules, repeatedly.

      Saidit is worse for it

      I think I addressed this already. I hope to see her back after she gets some meds or much needed psychological help.

      and it's low POD to harrass a user constantly for 2 days.

      Yes, agreed. Thankfully saidit does a good job moderating.
