I’ve heavily encouraged people to make heavy use of it to avoid friction on this site.
Just food for thought for anyone who has ever wished to not see a comment from a toxic individual again: there’s literally a button for that!
Thank you for your attention on this matter!
yeah i mean, don’t get me wrong, i think it’s egregious that the user this thread is about hasn’t been permabanned months ago. they don’t add anything to the community except nonstop rancid vibes. i think there is a pattern from admins of using kid gloves and avoiding permabans, maybe out of a fear of further slowing site growth? and i don’t think it’s justified at all or a wise move for the wellbeing of the site and its users. i’m just not willing to actually step up and become a mod or whatever so i kind of put up with it to some extent because i still believe the site is salvageable
It was also his 3rd account by now. It’s pretty obvious when someone is posting about their job across all banned accounts.
is this a sure thing? i saw your post about it earlier
I am absolutely certain. No way I can remember previous usernames but he crashed out over needing to cw meatposting before, iromic cause he became the vegan cook at his job. Thats how I know its been the same person. Talking very consistently about his job across different accounts and it clearly being the same job, cooking at a college. I know he blocked me after I reported him misgendering me and then made numerous vagueposts complaining about it and I repeatedly asked to be tagged if he wanted to shit talk me as if im not scrolling the same fucking board instead of being a coward but he had blocked me. That was his second account which got banned shortly after, first got banned for crashing out when meat tags got introduced. Both subsequent accounts have been spiteful about that, Leroy less than the previous, lesson learned one at a time I guess. But yeah, between the same pattern and being pretty open about personal details between accounts, its really obvious to me. I dont really consider it my business to call out all ban evaders, i’m aware of a few and theyve been decent folks on their new accounts, this guy keeps being a dick
Hah. Well I was 85% certain previously that he repeatedly posted meat and claimed it was vegan directly after blocking me, but I’ll raise that to at least 95% sure now.
So, i would like to make it clear this isnt someone i was keeping track of on purpose until the last account was banned cause he made at least one post and many comments being mad about me and before that we chatted about both working kitchens. Guy works at a college kitchen and makes the vegan food as a job. So I think its just vegan food with a good budget. I worked college cafeterias myself and ended out in the same position when the sweet lebanese lady who noticed I loced her food at took me under her wing cause she was retiring and wanted to see me move up taught me a fucking LOT. I’m fairly certain he has towed the line via meatposting. But I also wouldnt be too shocked if he tried to pass home-cooked meat meals as vegan work meals out of personal spiteful satisfaction. But I am getting towards stuff that can’t be proven. If there is a way to search keywords in post history search mine for ‘coward’ I use it often but used it a fucking lot about a year or so ago when I was been vague post attacked while being blocked and not being called out directly. There are receipts for the ban evasion for those who wanna look.
It’s a small site - I may not know the history of his accounts, but I don’t need to be purposefully keeping track of people to start to recognize usernames of the folks who are somewhat active. Add a crash-out on top and it just gets easier.
It definitely makes sense to me that you’d recognize prior accounts with the same job who crashed out over the same things, even without putting in any effort to keep track.
I still feel the need to point it out to the public
Slowing growth or accelerating shrinkage? I thought the net direction for years has been shrinkage.
i think you’re right, yes, i did consider that i should maybe word it that way lol
Sorry if I was being a pedant, but I’m out of touch on this subject so I was genuinely wondering if it became net growth at some point.
you’re fine:) yeah it’s my impression that we’ve been on a decline for a while. was just reflecting on 3k-comment trans megas of a couple years ago earlier…
Damn I wish we had that again. That was so good for me.
I have a bee in my bonnet about more then him. Although I think he was on my blocklist a little while ago.
I mean yea I think so too, this is pretty much the best space on the internet. Still have some things that bother me though I guess.
