They have a sub. It's not on s/all. So what?

They don't like it, go to some other site, or they can make their own. This site's code is open source and freely available.

edit: This 88 user keeps making alt accounts and replying.

Keep in mind these are the people that keep voting spam to the top of the page and keep trying to cause drama and division on saidit. That in of itself is good enough reason to ban them and ask that they leave saidit.

oh wow. you [removed] every single post of oldmobile_88 when he was engaged in a conversation in this submission, explaining what happened. Something i'm sure many of us are keen to read

No, I'm not interested in seeing his drama bullshit on this site.

It's divisive and disruptive.

You want to have a conversation with the user, go do it somewhaere else.

Remove the user, don't remove the content. People will obviously see it's lame but at least there won't be the mystery of potential abuses.

If it's not removed, then the site will be filled with spam divisive content

Ban the user, stop them posting. Don't remove the content.

Build an admin-only universal [-] collapse function or something.

Add a new "spam vote" so people could label the crap. Make all the "spam votes" 100% public so you can see who your accusers are in case of abuse. A rule of no "spam vote" abuse should keep it down or get the abusers banned too.

There's no limit to ideas, alternatives, and solutions, but M7 won't even discuss it.

Then they make a new user account.

They've made literally hundreds.

Why are you advocating for people who are intentionally destroying this website?

They're gonna do it anyway. Grow up, grow a pair, and work around them. ASK the community for ideas. I just came up with more today that I shared with Fred.

Why are you advocating for people who are intentionally destroying this website?

MORE bullshit spin.

I am NOT advocating for them at all. BAN THE FUCKERS.

I AM advocating for not censoring content. THEN we can see if you are making any mistakes. You are not flawless.

Okay so I should ban you too for breaking the rules, right? Just like I do with everyone else. Why shouldn't I? Why do you think you are special and the rules don't apply to you?

[–]JasonCarswell 4 insightful - 2 fun4 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 2 fun -  (2 children)

Stop being childish.

We've already been over this.

Ban me for 2 rules that you made specifically against me, that I temporarily broke - or talk about the issues.

Your choice. Virtual violence or civil discussion. It should be obvious.
