I thought we were actually trashing Westside Barbell to be fair.

@adam-l

Also, notice how no one else received a similar warning?

No one else was violating content policy

@adam-l

I'm not entirely sure what you mean by other issues but I'm 99% sure what it is referring to and he was permitted to do it for 2 years + without any kind of admin response

That wasn't what the problem was. He wasn't even banned for discussions about it. He was banned for a slew of other violations, many of which no one saw because I had no choice but to remove them, and many of which no one would have wanted to see

@Kloi

Wait, this wasn't about Kanye West the whole time?

@Durek_The_Bald

Yes. There are limited situations to post it. It has to be pretty removed from any support and not used in a way that is to shock people

It's best to not post it or at least be understanding of why it's instantly removed if it wasn't one of the exceptions

This has to be one of the least self aware rebuttals to a warning about site content policy I've ever seen on here

@Vermillion-Rx No complaints from me.

@Lionsmane8

In case anyone needed receipts for my decision on site banning a long time user.

I don't take any joy in it. It's not pleasant. But neither is 10 sitewide ignored content policy violations.

Everyone's feed should start being noticeably better (including new users landing on the site page for the first time) and less contentious.

@Durek_The_Bald

Fair point well made, Durek. Fair point well made.
