It seems to me some participants in this discussion are trying their best to appear mentally impaired.

Based on Bester's general postings and behaviour I'm pretty sure it's safe to say the man has issues. Leave him alone to his unfortunate existance, I say.

Things I "learned" ITT:
  1. Some of you guys are deeply, deeply crazy. Like for real.
  2. Politics GD and the shoutbox are hives of scum and villainy.

You only learned this after 12 years on the codex?? There's slow, and then there's glacially dull!

What a stupid thing to get yourself banned over. I hope your little meme is as funny when the rest of us are living on the codex moonbase.
by the way, your payload is still too expensive to bring up, hit the gym if you want to get into the moonbase dude.

Jenkem makes himself a target, then cries when he is targeted.

A tank that hates tanking. Curious.

Guys, if you want to name the jew, use Tony. I tested it, it works (just be careful with typos)

What about "Tobi" though?

Is the B on our keyboards within the penumbra of perdition cast by the V key?

If "Tony" can be said, then the N key is calm seas. The exploratory spirit of the Aryan male then calls out: Can we voyage into the rocky straits of Scylla and Charybdis that lie just one key to the left of the N key?

This newest forum RPG game is amazing fun, like re-enacting the Age of Exploration.

We all get to LARP being intrepid explorers venturing into the dangerous unknown, like motherfucking Magellan and cool as fuck Pizarro. I always wanted to wear a conquistador helmet and rape brown women.

Born too late... to explore the New World.

Born too early... to live in the Codex moonbase (Retarded meme being born, btw. These chimps can't even update the Xenforo software in their lunar mission control)

Born just in time.. to explore which four-letter sequences of keystrokes get users banned on an obsolescent gaming forum (for "doxxing" with a useless fragment of a full name. Might as well randomly call other users "Bob" until one shouts, "You doxxed me!" at this rate.)

Okay, Robert.

But seriously, yes.

First time it was fun.
Then Kalin got ban extension for behaviour of other people.
Now both sides went full retard.

Now both sides went full retard.
Usually, one side is more retarded than the other. It's rare for two sides to be equally retarded.
I don't have proper scales on me. But the situation looks like lose-lose for both sides.

Kalin aggroed the mods like a retard, knowing that he would get banned again.
Did he show some new info about mods or their character? No. Characters of the modding team were pretty visible from the previous forum discussions.
Did he change anything? No. The general modding policy would remain the same (the general approach to forum rules is very reasonable after all, the devil is in the details). Infi would remain the same (even if not, it's not the hill to die on).
Did he lose something? Yes, the character of an account. Lately it wasn't really likable for my taste. It still had its history. Of course a real human behind Kalin is able to create an alt or three. So what? He won't be able to participate in SMAC LPs or Grimwulf threads as we've known them, otherwise it would be too obvious and lead to another ban.
What else could he gain? Dramatic slaughter of the character that outlived its interest? If it was really so, then yes, mischief managed. The question is whether something else would take its place.
The only casus banni for mods to ban Kalin for the second time is shitposting.
Kalin can't be really accused with revealing personal data. Spamming somebody's first name isn't really sharing the personal information, unless it's accompanied by socsec number, passport number or something else like that. At least a surname. Banning for that is like banning for saying that Roxor is a Pole (and probably Andrzej or something).
Kalin can't be really accused with stalking, because there're people here that spam-tag others, many petty feuds with people shitting on each other for hours, there's an account named You that pinged half the forum. Kalin didn't approach a tenth of obnoxiousness that some people seem to reach here.
He could've been rightfully banned for shitposting. But, again, there're many users here that act at least as retardedly and obnoxiously and they keep shitposting for years. Mods do a pretty good job marking them. As far as I've seen (I wasn't really paying attention) few of them were permabanned. Even Maxie is here. And none of them had contributed anything I can recall on the top of my mind. Kalin had shopped his death pic, he put some effort (however small).

What did mods gain?
They've shown that they're ready to enforce the rules and bend them as they see fit. Wow, news at 11.
They've lost one of the oldest and memorable community members in a "business" that is completely dependent on memorable people.

The second is more serious in my eyes, because it shows a lack of judgement.
I've been a mod of a small forum myself. I know how hard it's sometimes to not act recklessly. They've failed their Wis check this time.
Maybe they should've tried some intermediate solutions first. Like banning Kalin for a month again, several times if needed. It's not like it would've been very taxing. And it wouldn't have required a final solution. Leaving your options open is always a good thing.
Who knows, maybe another meme would've been born out of that, a story of a Flying Kalman that appeared once in a month to spew something Infinitesimal only to disappear in the depths of the ban again. It could've been a story.

Now the story is over and it's full of shit.

If you read demograph's post without opening either of the spoilers, it reads like it was actually written by a normal person.

His post is really good, shut the fuck up.

Demo.Graph approaches human interaction as if there is an objective logic to it. That immediately disqualifies anything he writes.

Humans interact, not to achieve mutually beneficial and logical outcomes, but to exercise power over each other.

Tobi wanted to ban people who dunk on him for being a stereotypical power-hungry Jew. Kalin wanted to display that the Jew has no power here. The health and husbandry of a forum ecosystem never entered into the subjective calculations that these two mathematicians were computing.

And while these two analytical thinkers were getting chalk dust all over their lab coats, running out of Greek letters, and solving Fermat's Last Theorem... You can bet Kangaroo Jack was scribbling "1+2=potatoe" in crayon on the carpet for a giggle, but he owns the carpet and it's approaching 20 years old, so what the heck anyway.
