We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

And how glad am I that I don't post under my real name?

So. Very. Glad.

And, of course, she spelled my username wrong. Again. On purpose, the bitch.

I know we're not supposed to, but I'm allowing myself to speculate on her mental capacity. I promise not to do so publicly.

Thanks for all the fish.

Wait a sec, she hasn't been banned?

I think that's the first order of business, since her behaviour is clearly in violation of - hmm, CS, common sense, politeness, reasonability.

(edit) Are our profiles (and e-mail addresses) only viewable by registered members?

Oficially, she has been suspended for two months, right? Which means that, on June 15th, if the consensus of the community is that she has shown signs of being able to coexist with others, she will be here again...

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

When she made the threats, she violated etiquette again, so the ban is automatic. I don't even think we have to discuss it at this point. She's done for good here and on WX already. ita e-mailed Lance to figure out what to do about PF.

I know DX agreed that she probably should be.

I should've been clearer. Violating etiquette while under suspension is an automatic ban.

Isn't a ban just an indefinite suspension? What I mean is, isn't it just a matter of never unlocking her account, or is there another procedure? FWIW, you can put me in the ban her indefinitely corner, because it's become clear to me that she's a troll.

Correct.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Technically, it's a matter of never unlocking the account -- we don't delete the account, because then the name would be free for her or someone else to register with it again. Policy-wise, it's a matter of never unlocking and never going to, either.
