Regarding permabanned members

Rebuild With Biden!
Does PJ have any specific M.O. for possible redemption re: permabanned members?
I'm just curious if all the PJ rules are set in stone. Asking for the repubs and the dems.:)
Thanks

Speaking as a Moderator, I am not aware of any written rules or policy about reinstatement. I should think they would be in a pinned post if there were any.

As a member,I rarely read or post here now because of the toxicity. I can think of some banned members who would drag this site lower if they were reinstated.

I know of one poster who was permabanned, then let back in, then banned again.

Pretty sure the unwritten policy is you have to kiss and make up with the mods.

Or else shadow banned forever.
Not forever. Just until the word of the shadow ban gets around. Then suddenly the ban is remembered and posted to the Penalty Box. I've been assured that it's all quite innocent.

Nope. Just in your head. In reality nobody owes you a thing .

Posting here is a privilege, not a right. If you want to play in your neighbor's yard, you should expect to follow their rules, or be kicked out.

The rules here are not difficult to follow, so whining about them should garner no sympathy. The mods are doing their level-best to remove the toxicity from this forum to the benefit of all those who participate here. We should support them in that effort.

My two cents.

As an aside ..which poster or posters are you here advocating for?

You figure it out. Here's a hint:

Do you think someone should be perma-banned for making a snarky remark about buying a gun for a kid's birthday present?

Very much like Twitter.

I miss Mick and his tough guy Durham Avatar. He was an angry little guy, but quite entertaining. I vote to let him come back.

I'm guessing there is more to it than that. Some folks here have a history, and this may have been the straw that broke the camel's back. Just my hunch.

I think if we leave the ad hominem stuff out we'll be better off for it.
