First and foremost I'd like it to be known that I do not like having to do this kind of thing. However in the interest of protecting the site from bad actors that seem to have unlimited time but no time to have a discussion about how to behave here. My hope is that this will lead to a discussion and a real solution to the behavior that has been causing problems here on poal.co. @Hanswormhat I genuinely tried to reason with you without resorting to using admin abilities, and your behavior is at this point just abusive. I genuinely regret its come to this.

The straw that broke the camels back is the abusive comments on almost every post. This in my view is attempting to discourage people from speaking and is attempting to use his speech to silence others. This is not acceptable and is not ban worthy but I'm not going to let it continue until a agreement can be reached.

I have not had to take this kind of action in almost a year and I'm very happy I can say that. I don't do it lightly or without a considerable amount of thought.

As always if you think I have made a mistake please call me out on it.

Honestly I might. However this isn't about me it never was. This is about the behavior that I haven't even gone public with yet. There are certain behaviors that are planned and designed to stifle other peoples ability to speak and he had more than started down that path. It is very sad it came to what it did, and I'd happily re enable the account if he would have a reasonable conversation with me about what he was doing.

When someone prides themselves in behaving unreasonably: it would do them well not to complain when they are encountered with what they perceive to be an unreasonable response.

You have a point. I don't think my response was unreasonable considering the situation. I think that it made a group of people angry but I don't think it was unreasonable.

Not talking about you, though it's interesting that you'd take it that way. He made his bed, is all I'm saying.
