    I'd say it's needed in off topic discussions. I've tried it without, and always seem to add a few later on. Some just like rock the boat. I'm curious if you are able to check the vote, to see if socks are giving additional votes? Legion loves doing that, and will even do it on an open one.

    Weirdly though, there are often discrepancies between lists. Legion, and Teflon forget some people on occassions.

    By and large I think thread bans are lame.

    That said, there are a handful of posters that are insufferable and do nothing but trash up the thread. Maybe put a cap on the the number of posters banned?

    Yeah, like you troll my off topic threads...

    Seriously, why do you bitch about the very same shit you dish out?

    Threadbans are silly. If you can't handle a couple of trolls or people disagreeing with you, why make a thread on a public board?

    The ignore feature exists for a reason and it doesn't mess up the board.

    People like Jaded Dragon use the the thread ban feature as a weapon. It is their little toy to F with people they don't like. These kind of people think they have this great power to create a thread, start shit about someone and then ban them from the thread.

    Go hide in your bedroom and be silent. Don't go on the internet only to expect to be able to close your proverbial door.

    Why do you constantly whine about things that don't exist?

    Jade is proving in this thread why thread bans should remain

    It is funny reading his posts on the topic. The douche is basically saying “just leave it for me and my off topic food threads”

    You don’t understand the difference between ignore and thread ban?

    You, Jade and Deshtard are perfect reasons for having thread bans

    For those who haven’t voted, think about threads where the OCD pricks Jade and Yurt start their little pissing match. It makes a thread unreadable
