Talk about the Marichiko ban here

Rock Steady · 04-29-2006, 01:32 PM

I have to congratulate the members of The Cellar on the generally small amount of pig fighting here. I'm a mod on another forum where pig fighting of the LJ/Mari variety was a daily activity for years. Now, the forum has almosted disappeared thru lack of posts. It's hard for a mod to decide what is best for the group. If you let pig fighting go on too long, the nicer people will disappear from the forum.

At least UT had the stomach to do it himself. At this other place the owner made one of the fighters a mod and went out of town for a few days, let someone else do his dirty work. The new mod was so unstable that a month later he banned himself.

I just read marichiko's suicide post.

BAN

Her post as "Buddha" above does not dissuade me at all.

There, you see? It pointless. You can't fight the herd mentality.

Bye now.

Ah, now I see. This is what I get for not checking in regularly.

Mari, that was over the top.

I assume you're referring to the other board we have in common? Yeah...that was nuts.

Yes.

In that case, the Mari character was a successful high-income CFO. She and the owner were co-dependent fighters. The ambush and ban played out similarly.

Now that there are about 5 posts/day, there's no more fighting.
