Funnily enough even the guy who “doxxed” frozen didn’t get community banned (or did he? He wasn’t a day ago), so I am really baffled about this particular ban. Like if we look on similar situations, the guy who posted “LGBT approval rate” video got 6 months discord ban (I am not implying it should be longer), using a racial slur in game is a mere week ban, but this is the reason for a community ban? It kinda looks really inconsistent. Even calling this something transphobic is definitely a stretch, but does it really should lead to an instant community ban?

Yeah, we need more info on this, or it just makes ruling very inconsistant.

Again, like, I wasn’t accusing the person who misgendered me in the first place of transphobia. They were outright transphobic later and that’s beside the point.

However telling a trans person what is and isn’t transphobic when someone insults a trans person for saying the Trans Thing™ (“Uh, did you just assume”) in a way that follows stereotypes against trans folx is pretty rich, and again: not beating the accusations just because they didn’t outright use a slur.

Lastly: politics aren’t real. Politics are everything. Nobody is ‘politically agitated’ about anything. You can’t not want politics in something because that itself is a political stance. They were agitated and had a Gamer Moment Afternoon according to the screengrabs.

Anways: I didn’t get any hits on the discord. If anybody knows penpusher on Discord then DM me so I can send them a vouch through you for whatever appeal they may make. I have no control over staff’s enforcement of community rules but I don’t care if they come back so long as they take a deep breath before hitting ‘reply’ next time.

Stop getting pissy with staff for doing Staff Things and put an application in so you can be part of the problem. My DMs are open and I get gayer every time someone sends me hatemail.

Like again, if you made a decision that you must take a punitive action, there are so many options to make a point. You could easily apply a forum ban, remove them from the council and suspend their WL. Done! Point made, lesson learned. Why instantly jump to a community ban? With the evidence provided the action doesn’t strike me as something necessary, even as an example for others it really doesn’t work well because of the inconsistency.

At this point I think the administration structure needs a reform.

They also community banned Jinxed for sharing the screenshot of the frozen stuff (the stuff that did look really bad at that point, and you can make an argument that it’s still not a good look), though even frozen is fine with what Jinxed posted. So again, it seems like the management is really trigger-happy when it comes to community bans, which they shouldn’t be as the community ban is the highest form of punishment.

I don’t know man, but posting here or discord feels kinda degrading… I felt that the trans topic is way too heated for social media and us. We are literally banning a CO that stayed , I don’t know how long. She was respectable and such.

If we just ignore the Trans topic in the first place or didn’t bring up pro-nouns in the first place, We literally wouldn’t have a problem in the first place. And I’m not trying to be disrespectable here and respect everyone’s wishes, It’s just that bringing up this type of stuff leds to drama and such.

All in all. I’m very sad to see Lilpenpusher to be banned over this. And I’m sorry Arty for people disrespecting you. It’s just drama after drama…

Now I gone and done it… I made a twitter post…

Oh I ain’t saying you’re accusing anyone of anything.

I just want to see the clear transphobic comments because at the moment I haven’t seen anything i’d call transphobic. Nothing attacking you for being trans.

Their point is that you can’t make a judgement if something is transphobic or not if you are not a transperson, from what I understood. This is honestly a very weird stance, because rules should be clear for everyone. Again, if I understood the point correctly, then how can you even avoid being transphobic if you apparently cannot tell a difference. I think this logic is detrimental on many levels. But I could just misunderstood the point because of how vague it was.

Well, you don’t have to belong to a group to understand something or make a judgement call.

Transphobia, racism etc are objective realities that we can all identify with without being in a group.

So I hope that isn’t what they mean.

Funny how even I, simon the fucking jackass and man that people say, “why are you still posting”, agree that BOTH! I KNOW! CRAZY! BOTH sides are wrong, at least the radical sides. BECAUSE! Doxing is bad yes, then punish those people. NOW, if there are concerns brought up and all this against the host and staff as a whole, FUCKING DO SOME MEETINGS AND, WORD OF THE GOD DAMN DAY!!! TALK!!! JUST TALK. TO. EACH. OTHER!!! AT THIS POINT I DON’T CARE JUST FUCKING TALK SO PEOPLE HAVE A GAME TO PLAY! EVEN THOUGH I AM BANNED I KNOW I MISS PARTS OF CM AND WISH TO REGAIN SOME AMOUNT OF NON-SHITERY BUT THIS WILL BE FOR NOT AS IF THIS CONTINUES EITHER RIGGHHHTTT AT THE END IT WILL BE SAVED! OR, THE SERVER WILL FUCKING DIE!
