Lynne, Dave started a thread attacking another poster. Next thing I knew, his account deactivated and all his posts were gone.

^ Dunno about Dave...
I did hear from RJ that TGT is on a 30 day suspension, and not banned permanently.

I understand second prize is to be banned for one month. First prize is to be banned for two months.

^ Well, its possibly more effective than the "self criticisms" I had to write in China, in the early to mid '80s, for breaking the rules. Wish I was joking.
Maybe ST can adopt Maoist style "struggle sessions" ;-)
Lynne, I just PM'd you. If you don't get it, PM me back.

Dave Kos was banned for asking admin to ban TGT for being a racist on ST
and he started a thread about it after TGT posted some of his typical right wing copy and pastes or cartoons that were offending to some.
TGT was banned months later for being a nameless right wing troll,
some may know him personally, but he was not that on ST

This is crazy, crazy. I know these people and they are cool and if I gave a party and they attended they would have fun together. What happens when people dialogue on the internet with no human, eye to eye, face to face contact?
And we wonder why countries war with each other when climbers with a common interest can't even figure out how to get along.
And it's only January....God help us. Please.

Jebus H Bomz,
The population here has decreased over the past 6+ years. It's not just the people that have been banned, but more so the ones that have just stopped posting for a variety of reasons.
We used to get some hilarious posts and pictures from The Fish, Peter Haan, Roger Breedlove, Roy McClenehan and so many others.
Toxicity caused some of it for sure. It's a campfire, people, not burning crosses.

Malemute! I did not research anyone but Pate on your list. My memory is he got banned, then came back & left on his own & posts very rarely, without apparently "having a dog in the fight."
I alternated between between being on his shist list & enjoying his wit & fishing posts.

A thread of people's grease monkey lists in itself would be hilarious. Let's see more of those please lol

Truth be told we should all be banned probably multiple times. Lol
But I've never been banned. At least I play nice. Debate is healthy. Just be nice. When they call you every name under the Sun don't respond back in kind.

Some of the posters were spending entirely too much time on this site. You could look at their posting history and see that they started after breakfast and didn't stop posting until bedtime.
In those cases, and Fattrad was like this, it is probably a good thing. It frees them from an obsession of sorts.
I spend too much time here, myself, but I post on most TR's and try not to be overly combative and call people names.
The Chief was spending too much time here. A shame, because he was a climber who had done a lot of good replacing bolts for the ASCA.
If Werner wasn't Werner, he would be gone in a second. We all know that that wouldn't be right, though.
I try to keep my OT posts on the Religion Vs. Science thread, which is fascinating and full of good stuff. It just doesn't have much to do with climbing. We don't insult each other like the political threads.
