I see you reported him, used the ! to do so?

Admin,
Was this indeed a secondary handle that slipped through or actually a different poster who stumbled back here after many months away?

9/11 is a tough day,for many, many people. Best to remember that.

your request is bizzarre, imho.

(and, best keep this FACT in mind. one of the "moderators" from LP had , what 20 to more.....user names. This, from a guy that had control of who can say what, where, when )

Yeah I used the ! on like 4 of the five that shot in within a very short period. Never have before in my life but frankly I was concerned that I’d stoop down to that level and behave poorly in response.

I don’t think the inquiry, not request which is the wrong description, is inappropriate. This was a full on assault out of left field from an account that hasn’t been used in many many months, had less than 50 posts historically and was clearly targeted at 2-3 folks.

As for the “he did it so it’s ok to behave that way” and point to LP, a separate site with separate ownership would seem more inappropriate that the inquiry made above.

Do you think this was a 9-11 thing? Hadn't considered a mental break sort of thing, but ok.
still...penalty box.

Not sure why my question is bizarre...presumably a poster who is in the penalty box can't just use another handle to ignore the penalty. Geneva had speculated as such, so the question.

I find the whole multiple handles thing bizarre. And yes, I'm aware that it's not unheard of... ;)

Sorry to interrupt the echo chamber, but…

It appears as if BLM just committed a mass casualty event in Wisconsin. Appears being operative word.

I’ll verify when possible, but the reports seem solid.

You may wish to take a look at news.
Admin -- I think this one deserves a serious penalty.

While the details on this event are still emerging, there is literally no evidence at the time of posting that it was in any way related to BLM.

So this would appear, based on info known at the time of the post, to be disinformation and making things up for the purpose of racist trolling.

Garbage like this should not be allowed in these parts.

Boycott stupid. If you ignore the gator troll, eventually he'll just go back under his bridge.

According to my Twitter feed last night, there was a ton of activity on RW related blogs and feeds making similar claims. In the past some of this has been outside agitation.

For example, of something like 32K tweets about freeing Rittenhouse, it appears that something like 29K had overseas origins - mostly Russia, China, and EU...

Amplifying that sort of stuff without actually having a good source is the real problem here.

What's strange to me is that post-ers of this ilk actually believe that they have valid, rock-solid information. When, clearly, objectively, this is not the case.

Actually, given the poster's prior actions, I think he actually knows that he's often lying, willfully and knowingly spreading disinformation.

More than merely "wishfulness", ugly as that would be.

Wishing fatty and Joe a Happy Thanksgiving and lettin' ya know you're not forgotten while in the bin of silence and castigation. I know fatty was well stocked and will share, so both should be good in that respect.

What's up with posting unsubstantiated lockeroom rumors here?
Specifically accusing kids of stuff that's not posted in the media or social media anywhere?
Seems libelous if the family wants to get lawyer-y.

What are your referring to?

Libel is a strong accusation, but certainly understand why it's worth considering where a line shouldn't be crossed.

Especially when talking about kids...

EDIT: ahh, Loyola thread...worthy of discussion.

I think the legal folks would tell you none of that was libel, but certainly there's a question as to what's fair to spread and what's not. Looks to me like the posters were clear that they don't know anything for certain, but that what they've been told is XYZ...so, that can be taken with a big grain of salt of course...seems to me that the responses were also appropriate...if there was an issue it's likely understood and would be part of the process.

Myself, except for extraordinarily bad behaviors, I'm for giving young folks an opportunity to grow and redeem themselves if they have transgressed prior. And I think coaches have a responsibility to enable that to concur, which doesn't mean that transgressive behaviors are excused or condoned, or even that a young person shouldn't be removed from a given team...but second chances are important as well.

I have zero knowledge of this specific situation!
