Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for privacy. But between setting up the birthdate when creating my children’s local account on their computers, and having to send a copy of their ID to every platform under the sun, I’d easily chose the former.

I’d even agree to a simple protocol (HTTP X-Over-18 / X-Over-21 headers?) to that.

      I haven’t banned any blahaj based accounts with that ban reason in the last 12 months.

      To give a summary of the remote accounts I’ve banned in that time though…

      1. Said that “all land is stolen” and then called people delusional when another person said that doesn’t make it ok.
      2. A troll with a mile long modlog who said that arab community “got what they deserved” when Trump implemented a travel ban
      3. Another person in the same thread as person number 2 who said basically the same thing
      4. Same as person 2 and 3

      There were a couple of accounts that had been deleted, and no history was available. And a couple of accounts where content was removed, and/or a community ban was implemented, but no other instance bans.

      I’m quite happy to stand by all of those bans. And if you aren’t sure why they’re ban worthy, well, banning you was the right choice…
