Now that's not very nice.

It is a privately owned web site. Everything is bannable if they want it to be. There is no constitutional or legal right to post on CP. Moses didn't hand the rules down on stone tablets from God.

How about the fact that he's not banned but moderated. Banned and moderated are 2 different things.

Are you SERIOUS? You joined CP in 2009 when Pioli was hired. He sucked ass.

Since that time, the Patriots have appeared in TWO Super Bowl while the Chiefs haven't WON a playoff game since 1994.

It seems like a waste of time to debate about banned members, especially on a site outside of the AFC East.

But I guess that's just me.

It's a de facto ban.

Ban, not a ban - doesn't matter. They can ban anyone they want for anything they want.

Quit being an asshole. I wasn't debating anything. Someone said they didn't get Milkman's point. I just broke Milkman's point down into basic terms for that poster, since Milkman hadn't yet responded.

And what the Patriots have done, when I joined, etc..., that stuff has nothing to do with any of this.

Oh yay, the contriarians have arrived to tell us all about the horrors of unthical banning!

I guess there was always going to be a vacuum of dipshit trollery.

Are many people really debating that as a private site it's the mods right to make a decision? It's more about what people view is the image of this site. CP has a lot of mythos, and maybe the biggest of all is the leathery skin it takes to post here. I think people have the right to express their concern over that, especially those unlike me who have put in their time.

Maybe this site doesn't move humanity forward, but it has it's own awkward charm, even for those of us that don't participate in that attitude. I don't know what specific posts if any led to Clay being banned or neutered until he gave up. I know that when I thought he was trolling I ignored him, which was a lot. The problem is some people took the bait for some unknown reason. How you can quote a guy and accuse him of trolling and not realize that you are the one giving him power is beyond me.

Anyway, I tend to agree with Milkman here. Unless I am missing facts I would prefer that it be an actual egregious post that got him in the cross hairs, not just constant annoyance.

Face asshole

Clay is like the terrorists. We continue to talk about him, and thus he has won.

Hmmm. Hadn't noticed honestly.

Great post! CP's knocked out 3 of the top 20 posters by banning, so called, malcontents to appease the homers.
While guys like Clay and RoR criticize and challenge every move that's made by the Chiefs, the homers have very little to offer in rebuttal, (you know who you are).
To think that CP is leaning towards a Orange Mange type of moderation is scary:
- Rain Man could be banned for saying he liked Leslie O'Neal
- Dane could be banned for not liking the new Star Wars movie
- SNR could be banned for his love of rape and Terrance Copper

Where does it end?!? Milkman's right for a change. I implore the CP mods to stop catering to pussies and let people talk.

People with chaffed pussies should visit their local OBGYN.

This might be the dumbest posts ever.

:D (that wasn't even a proper sentence)
