I just hope that most will understand that the two were not banned because of the criticism, but because they repeatedly ignored Julian's admonitions/warnings and repeated their misbehavior several times.

You also have to understand Julian, he put up with a lot and at some point it has to end. But only people who have/had customer contact at work can understand that.

Looks like it, is not a temp ban. I think Blubbo once had a temp ban.

Unfortunately I had to ban two members from our community today. They are x00NY and Blubbo33.

Both members have already received a certain number of warnings in the past and we have already pointed out and written to them several times via the Communicator about their provocative behavior.
Several attempts have been made to come to a common denominator with both members in the hope that they can continue to participate in the forum without constantly and deliberately provoking other members. We have also often taken the time to try and settle disputes with other members. Mostly without success, unfortunately.

Today, Blubbo once again posted a comment in the sports betting section to deliberately provoke a member and accuse him of only participating in the sports betting section because he relies on Paysafe cards.
This comment was then deleted by me for provocation and a conversation was sought with him via the Communicator.

Unfortunately, this message was read but skillfully ignored.
And a short time later, he posted provocative content in the forum again.
Unfortunately, that was the end of it. I really tried very often to talk to him in the hope that his behavior towards other members would change. Unfortunately, I have completely lost this hope as a result of today's experience.

X00NY's situation is actually quite similar.
As described above, he too had long since exceeded the tolerance limit for warnings and we pointed out his behavior several times via Communicator.
In the last few days, he also attracted a lot of attention in the forum due to his provocations. To be fair, it has to be said that he then sought a conversation with me on his own initiative. At the beginning of the conversation, the accusation was that it wasn't right that I could insult him, but that he wasn't allowed to insult me in return. When I asked him where he had insulted me, he withdrew the question and apologized shortly afterwards, saying that he would refrain from provoking me in the forum. Before I could reply, however, I saw that he had already continued in the forum and was provoking other members.

As this is unfortunately not new behavior for either member, but is always repeated and there is absolutely no hope of understanding. I have made the decision to ban these two members. I understand very well that some members in the forum certainly cannot understand this behavior, but I personally do not see why we should be danced around like this.

The only one who is now dancing around people's noses here is you Julian. You just don't manage to accept contradiction anymore and immediately feel attacked in your ego. The GJ forum has been degrading for a long time, mainly because all the interesting discussions (and no, I don't mean anything to do with politics) are immediately stopped. As soon as things get a little more heated, the kumbaya chanting starts again. It's simply no longer interesting at all. All threads are repetitive, all replies are repetitive and all controversy is immediately stifled.

Everyone here is just allowed to love each other and discuss free games. You don't seem to have understood what makes a forum interesting. It's the forums with the most diverse opinions that are the most interesting. And I find it extremely ungrateful towards them. Despite all the controversy, they have done a lot for the forum and helped shape it.

A timeout would have been enough. Although I would also ask myself what for? But no, you feel so offended that you had to press the block button right away. The two of them have written around 5,000 posts between them. If there had been anywhere near that many bad posts, they would never have made that many posts. So maybe you should ask yourself whether it's perhaps more to do with you than with them.

5.000 posts with which they have enlivened the forum and thus played their part in making GJ what it is today. And you can't think of anything better than simply hitting the lock button because you didn't like their opinions and Blubbo ignored your message. Gamblejoe is no longer what it used to be and unfortunately you have played a big part in that.

Daniel certainly wouldn't have banned the two of them. You tried for a long time to follow in his footsteps and for a long time you succeeded. But more and more your thin-skinnedness came to the fore and more and more you nipped interesting discussions in the bud.

The banning of the two of you is absolutely unjustified, no matter which way you look at it. The only thing at stake here is your bruised ego. In any case, you haven't done the forum any favors.
