What happened to Gabbneb?

I see he got banned again, but I don't really understand why. Could someone c&p large blocks of posts or at least recap what it was that raised everyone's hackles? I'm not trying to "protest" per se. I'm just interested to see what went into it. Feel like I might not have been on the right threads.

dude

The Double 51 is a mark of distinction and not just given away willy-nilly to anyone.

he should be proud, he got 105

I'm just guessing he picked up a couple votes here

The worst word of these words

dude really let his game slip

and then "jeff" killed him

how does one even get to 54 sb votes

one has to give 110% at being a total dbag

what a disaster for gabbneb

he hit a trifecta imo:

a) base persona was being a smug prick
b) never had any moments of humanity shining through
c, and the dealbreaker imo) was not funny

yes

basically, the pretend-sociopaths of ilx who are often vv funny and humane are better than actual, unfunny sociopaths

I would like to ask that this gets dropped.

gabnebb was the worst

you guys are all so negative about gabbneb

RIP gabnebb for real this time

so sad because my iphone autocorrect just learned 'gabnebb'

Duh

obviously im beating a dead horse here but in terms of lols-bringing and hilarious nonsequiturs gabbneb was one of the top ilx posters

max otm--bring back gabbneb

you guys are all so negative about gabbneb

hed basically given up sophisticated meta trolling for just being a dick, all the time. sure still moments like implying that other nyc ilxors were cokeheads but i wouldve like to seen old gabbneb tbh

rip tuppence

I would like to ask that this gets dropped.

Dan, I'm not trying to create a clusterfuck or anything, it's just that I never saw dude's behavior as SB-able or anything and I'm trying to figure things out.

lamp it was still sophisticated meta trolling--obviously too sophisticated for such a one as you

hi--related question, i think my suggest ban button is broken can someone check it to make sure it's working? thanks

yeah, he was never the same after the first 51

old gabbneb is my favorite knockoff bourbon btw

the only problem is we should have thought about this before, where are we gonna get travel advice now

which nycer will i turn to for information about restaurants in my l.a. neighborhood?

how do we bring him back--serious question

suggest unban

lamp it was still sophisticated meta trolling--obviously too sophisticated for such a one as you

i think to engage in quality meta trolling u have to a least occasionally play the game and engage w/ others in a non-trolling way which he completely refused to do. i dont think i saw a post from him that wasnt on his gnomic dbag tip since hes been back

"engage w/ others in a non-trolling way"

^^key

we only have the power to destroy, not recreate

well, clearly some 51-odd ppl did. i don't know what exactly you want to see, the nature of sb-ing is necessarily diffuse and not really explainable the way a mod action is.

Okay, assuming that this edited exchange was what your guys were talking about:

cunny - you guys really don't like a) vaginas, and b) saying the wrong things about them, huh?

ARGH hello basic ignorance of English language, this is from the same Norman French word that gave us 'coney' eg. rabbit and while younger than the Latin, is older than any ILXor's lady parts neurosis.

Nice backhand, but irrelevant here. I don't waste time comparing the intelligence of ILXors, just so you know. Why you feel the need to is probably also beyond stupid, ignorant me.

i'm picturing that dream sequence or whatever from being john malkovich with all of ilx saying "gabbneb!" "gabbneb!" "gabbneb!"

he hit a trifecta imo:

a) base persona was being a smug prick
b) never had any moments of humanity shining through
c, and the dealbreaker imo) was not funny

YES.

I never understood this until the other day when he came on a thread just blatantly being rude and shiting all over everyone's parade without an once of humor.

FFS if you're going to be a mean dick at least be funny.

Dan, I'm not trying to create a clusterfuck or anything, it's just that I never saw dude's behavior as SB-able or anything and I'm trying to figure things out.

it's weird, if you read the guy's posts, like the actual words, there's nothing offensive there

but in the context of an evolving thread the guy was like biting on tin foil

poor guy never had a chance

for the record I'm still against suggbans

that middlebrow comment the other day made me wish i hadn't already used up my one sb on him

i'm sure he's enjoying the attention as this thread blows up today.

I mean, it could be argued that my post is the most offensive in the roundelay kingkongvsgodzilla posted above

― harbl, Wednesday, June 17, 2009 3:03 PM (1 minute ago) Bookmark

That's what did it for me!

First and probably last time I'll ever SB anyone tbh.

xp and again this is where "not funny" comes in.

what was the middlebrow comment?? sounds juicy.

from the 1p3 thread about perfect things

but it's another post that in isolation is not a big deal except in context of his general snobbery and looking down his nose at people and hating to see others having fun it was just like *ugh*

this is a thread to list or talk things you find excruciatingly perfect

maybe the mods will/should talk to him off-board, he's just had a chip on his shoulder forever now

Harbl OTM.

Wow, even I think that middlebrow comment is awful. Everything else seems like chickenfeed to me, but that was a nice thread and that remark was total dick.

There's probably more like it. Fine, I'm convinced.

kiu ILX

I just usually don't see that side of the dude, you know?

max doing sterling work up in this

that was a nice thread and that remark was total dick

Exactly. I have a pretty twisted sense of humor and not much bothers me etc. but he was just being a dickhead snob there was no need for that esp coming from someone who WEARS MAN CAPRIS AND LIKES PHISH. OK, sorry. I'm sinking to his level but damn I was so mad and I don't get mad very often!

gabbneb actually elaborate max sock

qv his weird contribution to the Baltimore thread

i don't know what exactly you want to see, the nature of sb-ing is necessarily diffuse and not really explainable the way a mod action is.

part of why I don't like SBing

also it allows a bunch of socially inept ppl to ostracize a socially inept person who unfortunately has a chronic case of unfunny

but I understand others don't see it that way

gee when you put it that way...

people are like, "this is irritating me, have it removed"

yeah that's the point dumbass

that THING is a PERSON with thoughts and feelings

ok now I'm kind of fucking with you but you see what I'm saying

Life is not an equal opportunity event? I guess? The guy has just nothing likeable or redeeming about him, and goes out of his way to make others less happy than they were before he got there. AND since he came back from the first SB he seems to have gotten really MEAN, in addition.

nah it's an unfunny prick with bilious opinions

that THING is a PERSON with thoughts and feelings

i'm not saying i'm not a little sad he's gone, but did you ever seen him try to interact with anyone in a human way?

thought and feelings and abrasive opinions

today we are all gabnebb

If there is going to be another debate about the merits/disadvantages of the suggest ban system, please start a new thread for it.

(probably too late given the xpost, but oh well)

Baltimore

once I said good morning to this old guy on the corner and he screamed FUCK YOU

I see the humanity in that exchange tbh

xp to mr que

what if he had sneered at your manner of dress, and your station in life

Dude, Dan - you can lock this at any time. Won't hurt my feelings. I've seen enough.
