FaerieGodfather, after some discussion, and recognizing this pattern in previous threads on the subject as well, we have decided that it would be best to formally ban you from talking about firearms and the surrounding politics. This extends to fictional depictions of gun control as well, though we are specifically exempting discussion of fictional firearms and real-world firearms in the context of RPG settings only. We have decided upon this exemption for the purpose of permitting you to participate in PbPs and forum discussion about roleplaying games where guns feature prominently. Do note that your characters in any PbP in which you participate are also prohibited from discussing gun control.



You are consistently at the heart of a raging maelstrom of angry posters in any gun control threads that are started. We have seen enough such threads decay into a "FaerieGodfather versus everyone else" scenario, where even the even many gun-owning posters end up arguing against you. This is a problem that has repeated itself over and over, with no sign of change.



We do not want to see you gone from this forum, and you are generally not a bad poster. We are levying this sanction so as to avoid being forced to give you greater and greater sanctions, spiraling into a permaban. Please take this opportunity to avoid this one troublesome topic, because we're otherwise content with your behavior, and we don't want to let this one thing ruin your participating in the forums.
