Just like AOU, bans users that criticize him. By the way, I gave AOU plenty of shit (deserved) on Poal in the comments, but even he didn't ban my account until after I had left for over a month.
And before you go defending The_Venerable because ALS is a "bad" person or is "harassing" people, could YOU get any person banned for replying to your comments? That's the abuse of a thin-skinned asshole admin, the kind of behavior people fled Poal to nuVoat for. But it's the same shit all over again.
The_Venerable (why does he hide behind "system", anyways?) claims he built a "better site" than the original Voat. No, you fuck, you rode on Voat's popularity and made a non-free speech clone of a free speech site. Even though Putt lost interest at the end, he never was an asshole admin, and that's what made Voat the place it was. In terms of usability, your site is worse than Poal. And as an admin, you're no better than Poal's AOU. So you offer nothing other than copycat branding. Good luck with "talk.lol". (What a fucking domain. No taste whatsoever.)
And in response to the inevitable "love it or leave it" reply, I'll stick around until I'm banned or find something better -- preferably a decentralized solution where users decide what they see, not asshole admins. In the meantime, I monitor the forum over at SearchVoat, which is where I found out about ALS's banning.
What's increasingly evident to more and more people is that you rule according to your emotions (like a woman)
Whenever someone really pissed off PuttItOut he would just go quiet. PuttItOut was a man.
The whole point of being a goat was learning to shrug things off and not let anything get under your skin. If you can go six years without learning that lesson, you were never a goat to begin with. Go cry in your closet.
