    Said this before in another thread:

     

    First. Mostly want to apologize for my rants here and at the DT. I have a small circle of people I call close.  Not friends. That’s a smaller circle. I have my aunt dying from early onset dementia (by dying I mean her brain is gone. She was a microbiologist. She left her house a few days ago with two different shoes on, a pair of pants, nightgown over those and a few shirts and her underwear on her head. Stopped by a patrol guy who saw she needed help. My uncle has cancer and it has spread so he is going to MD Anderson. Two people related to me have Covid. My credit is in the crapper, job prospects even though I have a JD aren’t great, this is my small rant. I come here to laugh not to fight. I guess.

  2. Final Solution

    thunderdome.surlyhorns.com

    Executive Summary

    No poster (aside from spammers) may ever be banned by a mod again. Instead posters are immediately restricted from posting, and are sent to Thunderdome. 

    In Thunderdome, The Banished can post whatever they want. It's a trash board. The catch is that, in order to have their posting status on the main board reinstated, they must hit a rep threshold from posts inside Thunderdome.

     

    Rules

    Only The Banished may post in Thunderdome.

    The Banished may not rep inside Thunderdome.

    All registered posters may read Thunderdome.

    All registered posters may rep inside Thunderdome.

    When one of The Banished receives enough positive rep in Thunderdome, his or her posting privileges on the main board are reinstated.

    Each time a user is banished to Thunderdome, his or her rep threshold for reinstatement is set higher. Fibonacci. This time, it's +10 rep. Next time it's +12. 

    Additional Recommendations

    Thunderdome must never be referred to as "the Thunderdome." That's stupid, and makes you look like an ass.

    Likewise, The Banished is a proper noun and should always be capitalised. Branding.

    Thunderdome does not have topic-based forums, only one big stupid piece of shit.

    All users who are reinstated from Thunderdome have their rep completely reset to zero on the main board.
