I can't remember the last time I saw a ban on SA that wasn't after a string of "stop trashing discussion" probes--sometimes in the dozens--or wasn't some flavor of FYAD-escapee bigot or death-threat-spewing weirdo. Even extremely tedious, thread-killing arguers will often be left alone unless a IK is ignored when they say "drop it" or whatever, and that's usually just a sixer. There are people who get really mad that they eat probes for, say, misgendering trans people, and I for one would like those people to be madder still. And preferably no longer on the site.

Well, you made me curious so I looked at the leper's colony and looks like things haven't changed much: - Ban for offensive joke: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?goto=post&postid=525156774&noseen=1 https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?goto=post&p... - Ditto: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?goto=post&postid=525143105&noseen=1 https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?goto=post&p... - Ban for insulting a political movement: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?goto=post&postid=524819272&noseen=1 https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?goto=post&p... That was just on the first page, mind you. There were some funny bans in there, though. "No, climate change does not justify pedophilia" and "Do not ever ask how to convert commercial drones to deploy grenades" are my favourites.
