Why does @System @Cynabuns allow a user to intentionally Manipulate site functions, as is against the Site rules (#4)?
This user banned me (and others) from his personal subverse and then intentionally @mentioned us from that sub while libeling us so that we could not respond.
This is blatant Site function manipulation, not to mention harassment.

How is that manipulation?
It's his subverse.
Sounds like SBBH.

Setting up a sub that I cannot post to, and then making blatant lies against me, pinging and mentioning me? He is specifically using the site functionality - banning and then pinging me so I can't respond to manipulate it.
Then stop him from pinging people that he bans.
Yep. and I've banned gabara way more times than you have. Speaking of, you sitewide banned them, but you won;t sitewide ban this guy for doing exactly what you said they wee doing? And now he's spamming the system? You kicked of shitsinhoneypots for doing what he is doing.

It's amazing to me how this stuff just gets made up. Gabara was banned for using multiple accounts to vote multiple times on the same content. I've found him doing this before and gave him a warning. So when I saw he was doing it again, there was no question to ban him. This has nothing to do with shitsinhoneypots unless he is Gabara. I am willing to give back Gabara his account if he will simply follow the rules and not manipulate votes like a jew.

Which Dial is doing now and you're dismissing because it's in his own subverse just like gabara.

Where is the evidence of that? The only reason I looked into voting in Gabara's case is because he or another SBBH posted like 10 porn pics, upvoted them all equally, and successfully countered any downvotes received. It was obviously manipulation to anyone who saw the threads. You were involved. As well as Gabara, where there was evidence he was using multiple accounts to vote. And given that I gave him a warning for this previously, I banned him. These thread's votes were so obviously manipulated, that I believe you guys wanted it to be obvious, to cause drama or whatever the reason is you guys do what you do.

Once an account is banned or disabled, it cannot vote.
Also, dial received a temp ban for spamming v/all.

At least here they cannot kill your account. Negative accounts are limited to posting every 5 minutes and cannot post links, but can post them in as a discussion post. Less harsh than voat.co 10 posts a day I believe. So why not stick to 1 account? If you believe you are being excessively downvoted send me a PM and I would look into it.
Thanks for the reminder to fix this.
Either way just chill out man. SBBH apparently has, for now at least. Making threats and demands isn't a good way to get what you want me with. I built this place for us all, you, me, sbbh, the average voater, everyone. I've tried hard to keep that cohesion. Was I successful? Sort of I believe. I am not perfect, you are not perfect, no one is. We should all appreciate the commonalities we have between us as goats and stop in-fighting over petty nonsense. Why not pick fights on reddit? It's way more fun.

No I am not. I never got close enough to anyone on voat.co to consider them a friend. I stayed out of the drama and was relatively unknown. I liked it this way.
You never reached out to me.
I try not to be, but my bias has worked in your favor more than you realize.
His account is still banned.
Go ahead.
Thank you. Acting like how you were isn't how you get my attention. Sending me a PM is the best way.
This is false. This is how trending threads work. They are initially popular, and that popularity makes them more popular. Post good content and you will see how it works.
Your whole post is false. I've always been anti-SBBH. You can look at my post history on searchvoat.
We could have been good allies. I had and have high respect for anyone who is anti-sbbh. It's a shame you decided to be nasty from the beginning instead of forge a friendship based on that.

1. Dial did earn himself the vote manipulator badge (and a locked account) on original Voat.
2. It does seem a double standard to let dial spam up all/new just because he is doing it a little differently than honeypots did. Which I think merited not only a ban but also removal of the content?
That is all. Thank you for the pen.

I can say objectively that both of them contributed far more useful and funny original content both here and at the old home than dial. Although that is setting the bar rather low.

Maybe so. But they broke the site's rules and that's what it boils down to. If I found Dial or anyone else breaking the rules I have to enforce them or they're useless. Sure I am not perfect and can be biased but I try not to be. Which is why I warned Gabara the first time. I was never a fan of his, but I do not target users, regardless of how I feel about them. And I don't actively go looking for people to ban. Both Gabara and Shitsinhoneypots brought their bans on themselves.

I completely dislike the continual spam bullshit that hits the feed, but part of Free Speech is just that. Seeing shit we don't like.
I have, however, seen a trend over the past month or two; from decent, interactive and intelligent posts, to the nonsense we have.
It's not hard to see that eventually you'll lose those that came back here for a reason. Because we all get tired of the nonsense at some point. And then you're left with only the doxxing post drama. And Voat will be dead.
Am offering no solution, I'm appreciative of what the gems we do have. If nothing comes of it, so be it.

He was mad about gabara. He spammed 100+ posts, covering multiple pages which would have taken forever to properly delete, so it was removed through sql. That being said, looking over my PMs he was originally supposed to be suspended. It is a new feature which he found a way to post through via the "last replied" link so he was banned instead. With that being said, I believe in 2nd chances/warnings, so I will unban him and consider it his suspension/warning.

This is why I clog up chat and make it unusable whenever these users are on. They think "it's just spam bro what's the big deal" until suddenly the website becomes literally unusable for them because their inbox is flooded with unreadable garbage. This needs to be addressed now or Voat will die. Putt and the old Voat lost half it's user base and shut down because of this crap.
Good to know.
