    A lot of people hate me, and I am going EVERYWHERE.
  • randomtropeloserrandomtropeloser
    I never understood how it was possible to hate somebody over the internet, especially on TvTropes.  I like everyone there, but I think I've already said that.

    yea i make potions if ya know what i mean
    I do. Unfortunately.

    Not that I make a habit out of hating people, but there are one or two.

    The difference resides in that most people are able to take Chagen seriously.

    That last post of mine was so bad I have to go...

    Except chagen is banned.

    Because people take him seriously.
  • TnopheliaTnophelia
    Which is stupid, because he should be able to make stupid jokes and abuse Poes Law as much as I do. I guess it's because he's been here longer than me.

    That's not even wrong.
  • TnopheliaTnophelia
    ...huh?

    Not even wrong, Vorphelia.

    OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    So...how is that not even wrong? I knew what the term means, but I don't see how it applies.

    Nobody hollered about Cassie doing it. The mods can't keep up with every single thread. That's why there's a Holler button. - Madrugada

    I suspect that's a big part of the problem.  It's like Wikipedia says, a lesson I think I need to learn too, if you're a complete jerk no one takes you seriously, but if you're constantly straddling the fence between behaving yourself and having too much fun and acquire a hatedom, the only resolution is to ban the target.

    I tend to root for the underdog so I tend to be strongly biased against hatedoms.  But I do sympathize with Madie.  I wouldn't want her job.

    "Is it just me or has the moderation been waaaay more strict lately?"

    That's impossible, I haven't been banned yet.
  • BobBob
    ^Nor has Tongpu.

    Just saying.
  • MyrmidonMyrmidon
    What Frodo said.

    Which is also probably the reason Acrdity and Tongpu haven't been banned.

    I'll believe the mods are getting too strict when they ban Tzetze.
  • BobBob
    Never going to happen. One, he probably won't do anything banworthy ever (at most, he'll get a warning or two), and two, he's too popular.
  • TnopheliaTnophelia
    TzeTze?

    Banned?
  • MyrmidonMyrmidon
    He got pretty angry when Bon Sequitur got banned.
  • BobBob
    Yeah, but being angry has never gotten anyone banned.
  • snowbullsnowbull

    @Bob: Exactly, which is why he is my ridiculous authoritarianism barometer.
  • KinoKino
    Quit being a whiny bitch and man up.
    @Chagen: You finally got banned eh? Meh; use this an an excuse to spend time outside or focus on your schoolwork.

    If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.
    Sorry to hear that, Chagen.

    Can't say I'm surprised, though.

    Sorry.

    FYI, summary of comments on the "Edit Banned" thread in IJAM:

    What was the real reason Chagen was banned?

    The mods got tired of discussing what to do with him.  There was a sense he simply wasn't improving fast enough.

    What was Chagen's reputation?

    Everyone agreed that Chagen was an honest Troper, not a troll or jerkass, just annoying.  Chagen took attacks on his positions way too personally.  However, many doubted Chagen really had much of a hatedom.  Most people felt Chagen's overall contribution to the site (as opposed to the larger community) was limited.

    What did people think about Chagen being banned?

    Almost everyone was sad, but not angry.  Most questioned whether Chagen was helping himself by being on TV Tropes.

    Mod edit: Glaring spelling error "Changen" fixed.
  • TnopheliaTnophelia
    chagen better stay here at least.
