Hootie was allowed back on this site 2-3 times after earning legit bans over the past year.

I'm not going to share the exact quote of the terms of his ban because it was a private correspondence and it wasn't from me, but it essentially boiled down to "don't be a douchebag or you're going to be gone again".

Since receiving those instructions he's been banned for 2 days as a reminder and been warned at least once that he's on a short-leash and what being on the "short-leash" means.

This isn't just Phil doesn't like Hootie. That's true. I don't. I don't like a few other people either but I don't run around banning people I don't like.

This is an issue that has been discussed ad nauseum by the mods. It's not something that we take lightly and just decided because one of us may have been on the rag.

It's not over any one post. It's a body of work. It's a process.

It's the Patriot way.

apparently you do.

it's some Weak Sauce. like when I got into with Pawnmower the other day and you tried Guilt Tripping me with the "my friends daughter died of cancer and you two are arguing on a message board"

it's your job to Moderate, not be the Fun Police.

Thanks for the explanation. Makes more sense now.

I didn't say it had to do with the mods. I said that lots of good members have been leaving, and they have. Why ban another one for no good reason? Maybe if he really provided solid football takes by creating a douche tournament, he wouldn't be seen as a troll.

Not really.

But take it off-line with Flop. He's the dissenting Hooting supporter. He'll tell you how much we've discussed Hootie and what to do with him. The guy begged to come back. We developed a plan and Hootie didn't follow it.

He was absent for nearly the entire 2010 season.

He was around more this past season.

He's had a lot of input here and he knows his shit, for the most part, but he's also a pussy liked to play the victim card when people would call him on shit when he was wrong. Sometimes he will just avoid it all together.

My "job" is to try to enjoy myself on this site because I'm first and foremost a user of the site just like you. I shouldn't spend any more than 1% of my time on this site wearing a moderator hat. I don't.

My friends' daughter did die of brain cancer a couple of days ago. I wasn't offering you a guilt trip. I was intending to offer perspective into your petty argument with Pawnmower. If that was "fun" for you then go right on ahead and continue - by all means.

Tell him to stop being a wuss and come back. :)

You've been here for about 10 minutes. You don't know what you're talking about at all.

No shit. He had to have done something else besides make that comment. I know he was just coming off some recent bans, but why even let him come back if you are going to ban him after he just voices his opinion about banning people from the results of a poll?

Exactly and if this is a "job," I guess I missed the part about getting paid? :hmmm:

You wanted to ban him because you don't like him personally, and you did. Justify it however you want, but it's no more complicated than that.
