Everyone needs to just take a deep breath, log off Anandtech, log off Facebook, log off Twitter, and then SHUT DOWN your computers, iPads, tablets, smartphones, etc. DISCONNECT. Go outside. Breathe in the outside air. Call a friend or loved one. And engage in direct, human social contact for at least the next 12 hours!

I'll go first.

Toasting epic bread....

No seriously

This has just gotten embarrassing for mods, admins, members, hell if i were Anand i would be embarrassed. This just needs to stop, it shouldn't even need to be locked, the lot of you should have the sense and dignity to let this thread die.

/leaves to let thread die

Was there a moderator discussion and consensus on Red's vacation/banning? Per earlier posts those are the rules for handing out discipline. Seems like it happened awful fast for there to have been any sort of gathering of the mods to discuss it before it was handed down.

You just don't fucking stop. WTH is your agenda? Who do you have such a problem with? You're like a broken fucking record, and it's time somebody put you back in your sleeve and threw you in the garbage.

Why? There's still many unanswered questions.

Me? I'm just sitting downtown in the railway station, one toke over the line.


I have no agenda, just pointing out the inconsistencies that I see here. Honestly, you don't see a problem with vacationing/banning Red because he responded to allegations against him?

Hell the very fact that his, as well as others like bamacre, ability to defend himself here was taken away should give everyone a bit of a "whoa!" moment. I mean seriously...that's some delicious irony right there.

YOU don't know if he was banned. In fact, his title does NOT say banned.

YOU don't know who may have vacationed him. Could have been anyone.

In fact, all of your accusations throughout this entire thread are based on nothing but assumptions as you don't have a fucking clue what is really going on, but you continue to stir the pot with the same moronic posts.

I was pretty interested in this thread until it got past page 8. This is so crazy. I hope most of the OT admins get nerfed as they are unreasonable, oversensitive, and clearly hold personal vendettas.

The OT forum needs more level-headed moderation. Not knee-jerk reactions.

I do KNOW he was vacationed.

I do KNOW it doesn't matter who did it, they removed his ability to respond to allegations and defend himself.

I am NOT stirring anything.

I DO like to NEEDLESSLY capitalize WORDS when making FORUM posts to MAKE it seem LIKE what I am SAYING is MORE ImPoRtAnT than iT really IS.

Can we kill this thread yet? It isn't going anywhere all it is really doing is drawing out the people who either have something against the forum or disagree with how it is run. I honestly don't think this is the place to discuss this.

Why is it bad to discuss problems people have with the forum?

Burying problems doesn't make them go away. It makes them more explosive. There's a time when threads need to die, but I don't think this has reached that point yet.

From first & second hand accounts, there isn't necessarily a discussion before initial action is taken. However a user experiencing such sanction may be in trouble depending on who did the initial action as in the private chambers some "voices" carry further than others.


As for the another that asked something along the lines of is this how things are handled now, the answer to that would be yes ever since the rules were modified earlier this year.

You realize this more points out his guilt than innocence. Thanks for qualifying it though.

Sucks his own brother damns him too.

LOL, I'm not trying to "prove his innocence" and neither is he. I just wanted to squash some of the bullshit rumours and get some facts straight.

GA isn't making any effort to get unbanned. He doesn't really care.
