Why are some of you upset that an obsessively misogynistic user was banned and topics about objectifying women are not allowed?

I think it's more of an issue that nobody can talk about it, and they're closing topics with any trace of it apparently? No one likes a cover-up.

I'm sending a strongly worded fax to Fandom in the morning. This will not stand!
Also do this: grab the nearest magazine or whatever that has a bunch of advertisements. Rip out all the ad pages, fax them in as well. Then yell HOW DO YOU LIKE IT?!

I mean, thats what I would do if I was faxing something to them.

Yeah the load of topics probably could have been avoided with a stickied topic from a mod to say just enough info to let everyone put it to rest.

But there are a lot of people who are clearly into those topics he made.

The issue is less the specific user, and more the....extreme response. I don't even know what he did, but he was definitely not the best poster on average. Him getting banned at some point was more of an eventuality.

The response however has been for some of the mods/admins to put "veg-" into the board search and just start mass locking topics, even ones that were made before that user's suspension. One topic was literally people discussing their favorite vegetables, another was talking about vegan food, several unrelated DBZ ones got hit because of vegeta being the word used, etc.

And despite one mod saying "talking about the user is fine but not the suspension", several topics were in fact fully locked for just mentioning the user.
