[QUOTE="nocoolnamejim"][QUOTE="LJS9502_basic"][QUOTE="nocoolnamejim"] Actually, I haven't commented on whether or not he did or did not AT ALL. I only said he didn't report abusively. You can't see if people reported other users? Not unless there are reports currently in the queue or they have marks on their history for abusive reporting. Maybe higher orbit mod/admin types have access to that level of detail, but all I can see is if he's been dinged in the past for abusively reporting or if he has any current reports in the queue.But I never said he reported abusively. I only know what he posted in those threads....and he posted in more than one of those topics and each time he said he reported users.

I'd have to see the links to the threads in question to know for certain. All I can say, for certain, is that he wasn't an ABUSIVE reporter. I can't say whether he reported or not PERIOD.
Even though I shared many of his views, my god was he obnoxious about them sometimes. Once I dared to question the orthodoxy of his views and he frigging attacked. Still sad to see a veteran go though.
Serrraph, I use the black background GS style. Anyway you can post that with different color font? I can't read it.

Since I've seen about six people comment on this... If you highlight the text it becomes readable for those who use the black background style. (like me.)
Anyways, it's a shame to see him banned. He was a familiar face. We had some good arguments. I'd even say that I didnt always disagree with him, just disagreed how he presented things. Often times I actually was on thesame side, but I just argued with himbecause I didn't like how he presented. He often had a very angry or outraged style of posting where one side of the argument was pure good and the other pure evil.

He changed a lot since he first started here....seemed almost a different person.

I'd like to know which Zero Serraph is writing about.UltraZero
Theo wrote that....actually seems to have a talent for writing....I don't remember who the user was though. They would have been a regular around the time Theo wrote that though....

He changed a lot since he first started here....seemed almost a different person. Was it just me, or did he use to be "ashamed" of being gay and was celibate because of his religious beliefs? I'd love to know what changed that, even though I don't think his original view was particularly healthy....

Though I think the OT had influence on him?

When he left...complete opposite. Is odd how radically he changed. Not sure what happened.
When has something of value ever been lost? Countless users have come and gone over the years, its the internet for ****s sake. It never ceases to amaze me how people get upset over a banning.

A little bit. But it IS Theo's banned thread and if Serraph wants to mourn/commemorate by posting a few old posts of Theo's that require some extra scrolling as his way of missing a friend of his on the site I don't mind moving my index finger on my mouse a couple of extra times. :)

Theokhoth always contributed to debates and conversations, he seem like a great user, shame he got banned.

Before he got ban, he only debate in gay related threads. In other threads he slient as heck, while me taking the cross fire on religous threads. And he got a bit aggressive in those threads....which is probably part of why he got banned.

I love how some equally biased people are complaining about how biased he was.
Who cares if he was biased? We all have opinions and ideologies, and we're all humans (not robots) so we're all going to be pretty biased. Yes, there are people who are more biased than others, and one should never let their biases get in the way of acknowledging facts or basic logic, but the only way anybody is going to not be considerably biased is to not have opinions and be on the fence about everything, which isn't any better and IMO, worse.
But the worst people are the folks that are biased as HELL but go around lecturing everybody else about being too biased.

Well, what did you say?
If a mod saw fit to suspend you for 4 days, you must have broken the rules.
I mean, don't get me wrong, I don't like when people report either, but if you deserved the suspension, it's not really his fault.

Theokoth himself was pretty unyielding in his beliefs so I can understand their point....yet I see exactly what you mean with the posts on this thread.
