Unless Lyude decides you need to be banned for something that happened in a different place multiple years ago, in which case your valuable contributions mean nothing and you're no longer allowed to contribute.
- bitwize 3y agoIf you wish to study physics at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and the dean finds out that you have a history of painting swastikas on buildings and decides to ban your ass from campus, it's not exactly an arbitrary or capricious decision.
- skyyler 3y agoThe ban was for something that had just happened, which was the poor response to emails and the inflammatory blog post. People keep trying to frame it like the ban was strictly for past actions from years ago, which I find disingenuous at worst and gullible at best.

- jacobgkau 3y agoIMO, the rude and unprompted initial email was "inflammatory." It was responded to in kind, which the sender did not take well. If you're that upset about someone publishing a supposedly formal email that you sent, perhaps you should consider why that is instead of just knee-jerk banning the person to protect yourself.
- PlutoIsAPlanet 3y ago> which was the poor response to emails The email said it wasn't up for discussion.
- skyyler 3y agoWell gosh, why are you trying to discuss it now? Seems like a waste of time to me.
