In reply to the discussion: discussionist is a misogynist pit hole - vulgar language [View all]EarlG
(23,095 posts)I saw a vile misogynist get booted from a discussion forum in the space of four posts, with only 36 minutes elapsing between the first post being posted and the last one getting hidden.
The first post was made at 6:21 PM, the fourth 6:31 PM. The four posts were alerted between 6:24 PM and 6:35 PM, with the last Jury concluding at 6:57 PM.
All four Juries voted 7-0 to HIDE -- in other words, the troll was shut down 28-0. Due to an earlier hide, this rendered him suspended and unable to post.
To recap: on a Sunday evening, on a holiday weekend, on a discussion forum with no ideological boundaries, no moderators, and not even any real rules to speak of regarding conduct, a misogynist troll was ejected in 36 minutes, by the unanimous consent of 28 randomly-selected members.
How is that a failure of the system? How is it a bad thing that a discussion forum with an exceedingly diverse membership just unanimously removed a misogynist from their community without needing rules to tell them what to do or moderators to do it for them?
And why are you continuing to give this dope publicity? He had a previous hide, he was suspended, at which point the only thing he could do was scrawl all over his profile page like it was a bathroom wall. And then, like all trolls, he created a sock-puppet account and was perma-banned. This most recent incarnation of his is well and truly toast, and it happened in short order.
In order to even read that crap he wrote, you have to jump through the following hoops:
1. Go to a different website
2. Create an account at that website
3. Log in to the website
4. Click on the member's profile page
Except, not any more because for some reason it is now also posted over here on DU as well.
Thanks for that.
By the way his (short-lived) DU sock was banned earlier today.
