The difference between what YOU said that got you banned and what Reina and Fasda were saying that you were TRYING to use as evidence for hypocrisy is that both of those individuals were being sarcastic, and you clearly were just trying to say things to incite drama and be some sort of "edgelord."
This is a really weak explanation and really doesn't serve as a meaningful explanation. Truly, what *is* the difference between what Bologna said vs Fasda and Reina?
I want to exterminate *white* people.
I want to exterminate *black* people.
If you're not going to punish one, why punish the other? You frame it as "These individuals were being sarcastic" which is, bluntly, retarded. Sarcasm has never been accepted as a 'justification' for certain vernacular on the server. Even if you sarcastically say "Kill yourself" or "Fuck I'm on suicide watch", you still receive a warn. Also, you're setting a precedent where people can say retarded shit under the guise of sarcasm.
Also Salty can you please explain what is sarcastic about their statements. In that statement where is the irony? If anything they were the one trying to be "edgy".
From my point of view, it seems like Bologna has come across as an 'edgelord' or 'annoying' and that perspective is leaking into this decision / response. Disregarding his character, in a vacuum, what did he say that was different than what others have said many times before him? As I recall, we ban / strike people based on a guideline, not their character.
Overall, I'm +/- 0 because I think this is just ridiculous in general. There was really no need for him to make a point, and from what I'm gathering there were other issues that contributed to his ban. (Though saying "I want to exterminate pedophiles" is a really weak strike imo.)
I would like more clarification from staff about why "I want to kill white people" and "I want to kill black people" are in any way different. Seems forcefully bias against someone you guys don't like.
Furthermore, the rules don't discriminate based on race.
