For the record despite the talk about "arbitrarily deleting accounts", only two people have ever been permabanned on AAD, one for being a Nazi and the other for death threats.
And one of those guys was a filthy SPOOK. So I don't think he counts as a real person.

Wasn't someone banned indefinitely around election time over something trivial, and then only reinstated months later after a bunch of complaints?

I had an account way back in summer 2015 (which had made like 20 posts and uploaded an avatar to avoid the spambot dilemma). I didnt visit for a few weeks and when I returned my account didnt exist and the link in the original email took me to the host homepage which also said my account did not exist anymore. This would have been like within the first few months it existed. I don't really care since yall have full custody of Lief and Sawx now.

OK, this is what I was thinking of:

IIRC Classic Conservative was banned because HockeyDude was in a really bad mood at the time.

Opposing gay marriage qualifies as something that's ban-worthy over there?

No, otherwise jmfcst would have been banned a long time ago.  (Fortunately no one likes him there.)

While there's a lot of "good discussion" claims, I've heard from quite varied sources AAD can be quite an echo chamber. Care to address this, folks?

I don't know the context of his post, but I doubt it was just that.  He's widely disliked there.

No, that's my point.  BRTD says he was banned for making an "insanely bigoted post", but my recollection was that the main objection to it was because it was anti-gay marriage.  So if that's the case, then I'm assuming that the reason why such a post was used as grounds to ban him is because "he's widely disliked there".

Putting aside his hilariously skewed opinions of what people are fed up with, his idea of what direction the courts are going is probably not correct. Even if 4 years of conservative appointments shifted it enough in that direction, how long they stay tilted to conservatives largely depends on if Trump serves another term or not. A Democrat winning in 2020 and even worse (for him), winning 2 terms would set conservatives back bigly in the courts for a long time. In that case, Trump's win would have been a pyrrhic victory.

Hang on, wasn’t IBDD also banned?  Was he later let back on?  According to this post, he was banned.  Banned by ”free speech” crusader HockeyDude because he leaked to Bushie the fact that people were re-posting Bushie’s Facebook posts on AAD against his wishes?  (And btw, it actually wouldn’t surprise me if cyberstalking someone like that was against Proboards rules, but I can’t say for sure.)

I also like how HockeyDude banned a slew of accounts with 5 or fewer posts because he didn’t like the fact that people were relaying information about stuff on AAD back to Atlas forummers like Bushie, saying that doing so constituted “actively trying to destroy this place”:

Got that?  People leaking Bushie’s FB posts to AAD is OK, but people leaking to Bushie the fact that he’s being stalked is “actively trying to destroy this place”.  Gotta go with Gustaf on that one:

It's kind of moot now, because Bushie is there and an active poster, and he posts long screeds of dull as dirt details from his personal life, and almost no one reads them anymore because they're boring as sh!t. Update is effectively over.

AAD is what you would expect to find after most radical revolutions, a dictatorship governed by arbitrary law.

As for the rest of the site's problems, it is literally a case of "it all being there in manual". The "After Dark" portion of the name. The place encourages people with bad judgment to engage in some of the dumbest actions possible all in the name of preserving that stupid update bs. Not to mention the sideline trouble such as the whole Mod Leaks fiasco, which did no one any good, but I am sure it felt good sticking it to the Atlas for about 5 minutes.

"And some I assume are good people, but they're bringing crime, they're bringing the update..." Tongue
