    I'm not as familiar with polarslam as the others, as I recall him getting run off the board (can't remember by who and it's bothering me!) shortly after I joined. Is this his typical shtick?

    Pretty much, though I don't remember him being run off by anyone. He just left, IIRC.

    It might have been Parallaxis -- though it may have been the reverse.
    Fuck, 2010 was a long time ago :calli:

    Is there a rule that you can't call someone a pedo? I feel 14thD has been getting called that for a decade now.

    Well, he definitely was called that a lot back in the Sokar days.

    So I guess there are two questions:

    1) Is that kind of thing still accepted or has it gone the way of blatant racism?

    2) If it's accepted, is saying that someone molests his own daughter an extra level of beyond-the-pale disgusting?

    I don' think Polarslam could have known.

    But yeah, if we've been letting the Pedoray thing slide this long, I don't see how we can warn Polarslam for this (and given he was once responsible for one-fourth of all the bans back at the height of his fucktardedness back in '05, I doubt he'd care).
