He’s lame IMO.
the meat thread was just the last place IS was shitposting, have a look at his history for the last week or so and work out a ratio for sensible posts vs nonsense rape threats - I figure it's somewhere around 1:20. the posts themselves don't bother me but the sheer volume recently is ridiculous.
not that I think giving him a time out is going to change anything, but there's no sensible way to argue he didn't deserve it

But we all come from a much stricter heritage, in a BBS sense. On Totse in the '90's, if you shitposted even once you got a warning, second time you get perma-banned. The BBS was moderated by a BBS nazi by the name of acidmelt for years. All one-liners and content-less and pic-posts had to be posted in the trash can (Half Baked) or you were targeted for ban. And people loved it that way for a very long time, because it encouraged meaningful discussion: knowledge is power - which was the community's core objective and mission statement. It was a no-nonsense platform, but you could still make shit posts in the trash can. Only in Totse's final death throes did the policies become lax, the discussion died, and the kidiots finally got the keys to the asylum. So, in that light, this stuff from Lanny is kind of mild compared to Totse's early and most prosperous and most interesting era. The problem is that Lanny wants that world of interesting and arcane discussion, but he also wants to entertain the Half Baked scene which plagued Totse in its final days. He can't have it both ways, but he still insists he will, which is, to put it bluntly, an insane idiology.

Oh no, I get the fin repetitive nonsense posts bothering him (or everyone lol) but the ones I was called out on (with fin were not the repetitive rape threats. It was one liners and honestly I personally forgot what thread I was in), and I posted ABOUT freakin MEAT before fin even posted in there to begin with, and he had to make a smart ass comment about “my dinner”. Then I go back to page 3 or 4 and someone made almost the same exact post I did. That’s what gets me.
Just dumb in my opinion.
Edit: I’ll stick to the trash can threads then. LOL

I already called him out several times for being extremely arbitrary, but he thinks he's not being arbitrary at all.

I think Lanny should see that there is definitely a place for finny here. I find it funny, but I realize most people don't.
If nothing else, Finny is a great case study in what happens when you feed the troll. If you guys would have just ignored him, he would've stopped a long time ago, so as far as I'm concerned, he's all of your fault.
What's rule number one of the internet?
Don't feed the troll.
