    I agree with toms ban. He broke the rules and he's had many 60 day bans before. sucks to be him.

    So let me explain how our ban process works.

    First, we never wait around for socratease. lol.

    Second, the vast majority of rule breaks are very obvious and the only discussion is one of length of ban, not if someone actually broke the rules or not. As such, usually the only thing us mods are waiting around for is for people to voice durations. For some offenses, there is always an assumed minimum (typically 7-30 days).

    For any ban short of a permaban, we typically wait until we have at least 2 mods on board. If the 3rd and 4th mods come along later the ban duration can always be modified.. either shortened or lengthened. That's why sometimes you see us make a post where we have banned someone for a week but then it's upgraded to 30 days pending more discussion. And no, the person that makes an initial thread in the announcement forum for 7 days doesn't imply they are vouching for that timeframe, they just put the minimum while debate continues.

    Usually another mod or two will eventually come along and concur or dissent. If only one mod is dissenting, they are outvoted 2-1. If it's 2-2, I can't tell you what happens because it's never come up a single time. Almost all bans in the end end up with 4-0 consensus. There has never been a ban where we were tied on the issue. I dont know what would happen in that case. Maybe no action? It's never come up. Again, peoples violations on here are usually very obvious.

    When it comes to permabans we hold ourselves to the standard that every single mod must be on board (minus soc cause he's never around). So 4-0. If you are a liberal and are butthurt maineman or thedude is gone, sorry but rana voted yes as well. If you are a conservative butthurt that usaloyal or whoever else is gone, damo agreed. I agreed. permabans mean all mods explicitly supported it.

    So in conclusion:

    Almost every single ban you see is agreed upon by all the mods. Sometimes someone might want 30 days vs. 45 but we don't sweat the small stuff.

    So while I wasn't around initially for the tom vote, I came back, saw the comment, saw 90 days, and consented.

    also just because a mod doesn't post on the main board, don't assume they are gone completely. there were month long periods where billy wasn't posting on the main board but was active every day in our backroom. same with damo. He's always watching O_O

    Unless they're someone Rana agrees with and they've only had ONE OTHER BAN, then they get the minimum.

    Two plus pages and crybaby USF is STILL whining.

    Someone is definitely triggered, I just don't think it's who USF thinks it is.

    You are the last person who should be poking fun of someone else criticizing Mod decisions. Holy fuck you are one of the biggest crybabies here

    The irony is thick with you

    Cheese and Rice dude.

    Do you know how difficult it is to get banned on JPP? Hell Desh hangs out here cause it's the only place on the internet that has t banned her. The threshold for banishment are as low as they get. There are only a few things that will get you banned and everyone knows what the hell they are.

    To get banned on JPP you either have to be a blathering idiot, unconscionably careless or doing it on purpose.

    So cry me a river about about soft hearted little Rana being unfair.

    I hate sticking up for Rana, but I don't see any discernible change with her as a Mod. Tom has been banned before and even if you have never been hit with a 12b before, if you have been here long enough it should warrant a long timeout. If anyone should understand 12b it should be Tom. I have no sympathy for him on this given the shit Darcula got banned for. Remember when Zipperhead tried to be cute with his "tourist" bullshit and Grind quickly slapped him down? Oh the whining from Zipperhead was unreal

    So did Damo actually consent? I have it on authority he said nothing and Grind wasn't here, thus, only you two consented (at the time of ban) and so far you have not disputed that.
