Shark didn't just do a post in the "Woke Companies list" thread (a thread I'm ESPECIALLY concerned about, because I know that leftists want to sabotage it with off-topic drivel so as to reduce the importance of the list itself, it's probably the most famous rpgsite thread in years) after being thread-banned.
He was thread-banned for OFF TOPIC Posting and then goes, on the woke companies list thread, and asks for more information about mommy porn.
To be clear, there is NO EXCUSE whatsoever for off-topic posting of any kind in the main RPG forum. If you want to post off topic, you can try to start a thread on my RPGPundit's subforum, and if I let you, great. If not, go to fucking 4chan
"It is really big news right now" is not an excuse
"someone else started it" is not an excuse
"this is a leftist and I have to counter his lies" is not an excuse (if you see a leftist posting off topic on an RPG forum thread, report it; but please don't report them just for being leftists, that will not do anything)
Now, had Shark done a normal post, I might have been willing to let it slide with a second warning. But no, he went BACK on the one thread I care most about protecting, and decided he had to as for more information about Mommy Porn.
There is absolutely no question that he needed to be banned for that.
Claims that "he's old", and "he probably forgot" is not really a good argument for bringing him back, because it's just saying he's likely to do it again. The argument I need to hear is that HE WILL ABSOLUTELY NOT DO IT EVER AGAIN, and I need to feel convinced of that. It's not impossible to not do it again (you just have to NOT WRITE ABOUT SOMETHING OFF TOPIC to RPGs), and yet there are people who are so obsessed with veering off topic or with diverging into political fights that they can't seem to help themselves, it's like a disease.
