[r] Celebrating death?

Postby Greater vakolicci haven » Sat Aug 24, 2019 2:42 am

Last time I checked this sort of stuff wasn't good:

“Silent acquiescence in the face of tyranny is no better than outright agreement." - C.J. Redwine
“The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles." - Jeff Cooper

I'd say the entire thread needs a trawl because it's far from the only such post in there:

I'm kinda annoyed that I'm the only one in that thread who got warned for this when there's several others who posted similar comments. If this is against the rules then how come I'm the only one who got singled out?

If you want to appeal the warn, you are able to do so.

A little bit more celebrating death. I'm not following the thread as much as I sometimes do so sorry if you already caught this one.

Does the thread serve a purpose anymore? Is there a point to keeping it open? I'm asking because it seems like a controversial person dying will ultimately continue to lead to posts which are, at best, borderline gloating.

So what we've learned is that if people behave badly enough they can get threads they don't like locked., but won't be meaningfully punished.

*** Warned for spamming Moderation. ***

It was an obituary thread that turned into juvenile sniping.
