Why did Generic-Giant-Spider get nuked from orbit?

What I am saying is that just because speech is used to do something, that doesn't mean that something is speech.

That is the same as what you are saying when you refer to harassment though. Harassing someone, though it uses speech, is not speech in the same sense as "free speech"; and a speech act is something being done through speech where speech is just a medium for the action.

I don't really get your differentiation here beyond perhaps negative connotations with the specific philosophical framings, honestly.

Dunno who the fuck this is. Not a fan of banning people over something they say, but if you keep saying the same specific thing over and over and a staff member warns you to stop saying that specific thing over and over then maybe say it a bit less. If you can't come up with something new to insult some bitch faggot every once in a while then maybe you're too low IQ for this site.
GGS is the particular kind of bored loser that, after being told to knock something off, goes out of his way to post it as much as possible. Last time he got banned was after he engaged in "editing wars" with staff, continually reposting someone else' photo all over the place, and putting it back in every time infinitron or whoever else removed it.

Basically baited a ban in both instances.

except if u look at sanchezs last post/activity and crispys pm in terms of timezones u would see sanchez didnt do anything else after :3

warned then nuked anyways cuz ur huehue coke dealer is a clinically depressed neet that cant handle a nigga frum da h00d xd

Make the Codex Great Again! Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag. I helped put crap in Monomyth
That said I fail to see why he's banning him and not the likes of Meb and Theo. No doubt they spam the report button.
It has been made publicly known that Theodora does ask for our attention fairly frequently. It is what it is, but I've also made it clear to Theodora that favorites are not going to be played despite the fact that many of you will fervently insist they are being played. Yes, Theodora was technically made a moderator of Shoutbox but I'm p. sure you know as well as I do the primary reasoning behind that.

Mebrilia doesn't report content any more frequently than anyone else here does, as far as I know.

lmao "just ignore the coincidences stupid goyim, stop noticing things!"

I didn't really look at it that thoroughly, but it seemed to me that it was trying to tie the act to the speech. As if the speech was imbued with the act. I am arguing the opposite, that the speech and the act are separate.

Almost all speech has some purpose behind it unless it is just babbling or something like that, but I don't think that makes the speech itself the same as whatever that purpose is. The same exact wording or a substantively similar wording could be used for an entirely different purpose.

If you tie the speech to the act, as seems to be the purpose here, that opens the door to trying to regulate certain phrases of speech or ideas based on the idea that speaking them should be understood as performing those acts.

It’s an off-color remark. It was highly inappropriate. You want, I’ll demand he’s taxed. But ban him?

no, you fool, my point is it wasn't crispy who banned him, DU did so it's irrelevant what crispy said.

Come now, surely on codex of all places we can acknowledge that much of it is ultimately just pointless babbling. :P

But no,
If you tie the speech to the act, as seems to be the purpose here, that opens the door to trying to regulate certain phrases of speech or ideas based on the idea that speaking them should be understood as doing those acts.

It's not about tying phrases to certain actions so much as certain intentions and behaviours through speech to their purpose -- which can benign, like asking a sincere question, or malicious, intending to cause someone harm (which certainly can never be summarised or linked to a single world, phrase, or idea).

EO is lying about everything here (as always creating fan fics, which everyone knows he does), but it should be mentioned that GGS, after being banned from the shoutbox by DU himself, continued posting the same thing in a couple of threads, and because of it was sanctioned by DU again. Not that he deserves any explanation though, but just to makes things clear.

you're the one struggling with reading here

the staff aren't a hive mind, DU and crispy did not act in coherence. DU "warned" him by banning him permanently from shoutbox, and yet he kept doing it. crispy's own independent warning is irrelevant because DU made his own decision based on him totally disregarding a very blatant and direct way of saying "knock it off".

edit: beat me to it.

Since bans here aren't always permanent (actually, they're rather rare), I'd say they're quite the stern warning.

Someone like Kalin, for example, got warned by being banned, but then the dumbass went and got his alt banned anyway.

You sure do know a lot about what was and wasn't said to GGS.

Sadly, that means there's only one conclusion - which means appropriate action must be taken.
