    Done.

    I had forgotten about the thread until Poodle bumped it.

    Because I seem to recall folks arguing over if it was okay that someone got banned for racist slurs, and AFAIK, Dayton's family hasn't posted here in quite some time, so the odds of them seeing anything that someone might say about them are pretty slim. Not that I'm in favor of people attacking his family, but if you're not going to say that it's wrong to fling racist slurs against someone here, then I don't think you get to complain about comments made about someone who is not here.

    FWIW my post was genuine, not a troll of his family. :shrug:

    If nothing else, if you banned Dayton because he was too much trouble then why would we have a thread trying to draw him back?

    I didn't ban Dayton. Nuking idiots in a barrel is kinda my kink. YMMV.

    As was mine.

    I'd heard of the wedding on Sept 11th but not of the pregnancy and given Dayton's views, fuck yeah the irony is funny :shrug:

    That said, Tuckerfan is right, and I don't get why a banned member gets more protections and considerations than those of us who do post here. But I've said my say and it's gonna fall on deaf ears to make any meaningful change to the fReE sPhEeCh on this site, so.... :clyde:

    Ultimately, that thread was a non-issue until Poodle sherpled the thread to troll.

    Closing the thread does have the side benefit of making it unsherpleable, so win.

    Congratulations to Dayton on 18 months without any warnings. A new record!
