I am not sure what is going on and I understand if staff are busy with their lives, but I do need to bring this to light. There has been a kind of deterioration going here on the site that is thanks to one Lost Sanity who has been picking fights and has been allowed to scream his opinion at all who oppose him on said opinion. I know he has had a history of this, but it has gotten to a point that Ridley Wolf had to step in and call him out. He was brave enough to do what no else wanted to do or was afraid to do. Rockout has called him out on it. I even have pointed out the issues in his arguments as kindly as possible to him. Lost doesn't want to listen. Now I am aware Lost Sanity is currently banned due to the issue between him and Ridley more recently, but I do want to move that Lost needs to be entirely removed, and/or permabanned for his behavior. The reason for this is because he aggressively attacks anyone who opposes his opinions, or looks at his opinion critically. To my knowledge, none of us, who have tried talking to him about his opinions, have insulted him for his opinions but have kindly pointed out the flaws in his logic and thinking. Lost responds to this with aggression and a lack of respect for our opinions and helpful insight to his thought process. Any aggression towards Lost is due to Lost attacking us for our opposing opinions. I know that a request for full removal is not my call, as I am not staff. But I do this as a concerned member of the site. I am not the only one who thinks that Lost needs to be permabanned either. A few others who Lost has greatly angered, want him gone, including Ridley Wolf. If this can be at least considered or if there is dialog to what can be done about this, it would be greatly appreciated.
Well, both are banned but Lost's name is marked through and Rid's is not so I think the staff had finally had enough of it too. If that means what I think it does, I'm glad that drama will finally end. Couldn't help but feel a little dirty when I had to respond to his posts but I couldn't hold my tongue anymore. I don't like having to show that side of me and it looks like I won't have to anymore. I'll be glad when Rid gets back too.
I'd just like to step in here a second, lost was given repeated warnings and eventually he was given a temp ban, now I'm not sure if this has been extended to a permanent ban but I don't think that is the case but more than likely if lost keeps up the same behaviour once his ban is lifted the chances of it being permanent next time are high. Hope that clears up any confusion there.
I really thought line through was Permanent ban. I never really got in any debates with him, but I have called him out on his assumption that we wish him dead. I wish him to grow up, but I don't wish him dead.
I don't mean to step on any toes. I never was aware of any warnings, outside the ones the staff gave us after the fact of an argument started by Lost. Though his behavior shouldn't even warent a temp ban, but that's just me. Permabanning him would be the only solution, since he doesn't listen and continues to repeat his behavior, even though people have told him that he needs to stop. Lost is 100% acting like the whole site is against him, and is assuming everyone hates him. He seriously thinks he is fighting a 'one versus all war' with the site.
Lost needs to be Permabanned. He's an aggressive little parasite that refuses to listen to people and can't take criticism. He's incredibly aggressive to people that reason with him and puts up some retarded victim card that it's him versus the world. Finish this.
Some of you may recall the remarks that I made about Lost's behavior in an earlier thread, and in light of recent events, I feel they still stand. In short, I agree that he needs to be permabanned. It's fittingly ironic how he thinks that Hasbro shoves Starlight down our throats, yet proceeds to shove his opinions down our throats. He's also unable to take criticism as others have pointed out. Goodbye and good riddance, LostSanity. You won't be missed.
I'm pretty sure the line through his name indicates a permanent ban. I could be wrong so I guess that's a question for whichever staff member actually banned him.
While I agree his behaviour is out of order I don't think ganging up on him like this with everyone saying he should be banned is right. It is just proving him right when he says he feels like everyone here wants him gone. I will say this again though, if lost keeps up the same behaviour when his ban is lifted his chances of his ban being permanent next time are high. I suggest you ignore and or report him if he keeps it up and leave the final decision to the staff.
It's not that we're just ganging up on him for the sake of doing it. We all tried to reason with him, let him know how we felt about his behavior, and implored him to be as respectful towards us as we were trying to be towards him. It's not that we wanted him gone just because we disagreed with him over something trivial. In fact there are a lot of people with similar opinions to his that I have a lot of respect for and am able to have friendly, non-heated discussions and debates with because they present their opinions like actual adults and not just the same caps locked catchphrases week in and week out. When a person purposely tries to cause trouble, then it's pretty logical that they will be met with some form of response or retaliation. Like I said, we gave him several chances too. Also, when someone claims that everyone wants them to die without backing it up with facts, that, to me at least, is a sign of someone who just wants to stir up trouble and get attention in all the wrong ways.
No. Remember when I was banned? My name had the line on it, and see me here. I think that is for longer bans than shorters like Ridleys. In any case, is whay I gathered so far with experience
We still have the capacity to put users on a Parole status here too. Which may be beneficial for both. And I'm the only me, Princey!
I was about to ask what you were talking about and then remembered my title But no. I am you as well!
I respect that you are being neutral on this, Jewel. However, Rockout makes a point. We are not dumping on him for no reason. His behavior in the past few months especially, has been exceptionally annoying. He makes assumptions, he acts like the world is against him, and then he acts like a child once people are critical about his opinions. I think it's this ego of his that he is fighting this war against all who come at him, that is the real issue. He thinks every thing is an insult and is looking for attention to point it out. It's good to ignore attention getters, but Lost is a special case. It's gotten to a point that no one likes his behavior and wants him to leave. I think the history of dislike for Lost is attributed to his negative attitude toward everyone socially, thinking that people dislike him just because he is the 'edgy polarizing one'. You can be polarizing without being insulting to everyone and that's where his logic, in that regard, is flawed. There is being upfront with your opinions, and there is acting like manchild. Lost is the latter.
Honestly, many times I thought saying "You dont have any haters!" but I got to the point I think, he didn't had any, but after all the stuff he did he ended up with people no longer liking him, or even how we are, completely tired of him Ironicaly, this is his profile image in another forum
