The initial incident was him posting this:
lol I can't believe how tumblr this site got
To which I staffposted:
You've been warned before for shitposting, so here's a more formal warning. We do not appreciate your shitposts. Stop it. Further posts of this nature are going to lead you to a 24 hour ban. Whether or not you agree with site culture, this is probably one of the least-eloquent ways of addressing it that you could have come up with. The word was literally used incorrectly, and TwistedGears was correcting the author. Nothing tumblr about it.
And sent this similar PM:
This is in regards to your comment "lol I can't believe how tumblr this site got"

He replied with:
For a writing site, you guys are really sensitive.

It would have been acceptable if you had tried to start an actual discussion about the subject instead of just flicking insults at people to bait out a reaction. If you'd like to engage in a conversation beyond 'u mad bro' I'd love to have it.
He replied with:
I didn't try to start a discussion about gender because the fact that gender is even being brought up is why I shitposted in the first place. You just can't escape this shit. No one who wants to kick back and read some spoopy stories cares about the proper definition of gender, and 99% of the population would know exactly what that line meant and wouldn't quibble about it like "oh, but what if she identifies as genderfluid?" Give me a break.
And the way the author replied like he got caught taking creepshots of girls on the subway or something. Just lol.
But yo, that's fine, it's not like I was stalking the guy. I'm not here to discuss social justice theory. Which is why it was just a one-line throwaway post. And I make shitty posts, dude? Really? Cause I posted "ayy" once or twice and I think the humor on this site is just not funny at all? Get a grip.I mean, it's not about sensitivity. You just make really shitty posts. If you had posted any other site besides tumblr, it would have been just as much of a shitty, content-less post. It's amazing that a writing site actually wants people to have content in their posts, isn't it?
I didn't respond to this message.
Later the same day, he posted an empty comment on a blank new SCP page, then edited it to say
all ready to crit a brand spanking new scip

Since you've been warned by me today about this kind of posting, disciplinary action is going to be escalated. Others commenting in this thread, do not respond to this post or other posts similar to it. unfinished drafts will be summarily deleted by staff.
He pmed me with this remark:
Lmao bruh you shitting me right now? Because I posted a dumb post in a blank SCP's discussion page? At least have the dignity to reply to this post instead of ignoring me like a power tripping prick.
(I'm unsure if he meant ignoring him because I chose not to reply to him earlier, or if it was because I did a closed staff post, or both. Doesn't matter now, either way.)
I replied with:
We don't tolerate shitposting on blank SCP pages, or incomplete pages, given that we've previously banned users for doing that kind of thing. In addition, since I warned you about this exact thing only a few short hours ago, your earlier reply of 'But I almost never make low-effort zero-content posts' seems pretty disingenuous.
He followed up with:
What exactly is "low-effort" about a post referencing a scip that doesn't exist in the first place? I'm just having fun, or do you want me to post some zany jokes about what Dr. Bright can't do in the Foundation or whatever?
Sorry I remind you this place shouldn't be a hugbox. I try to write good horror, I try to be clear, concise, and direct with my crits 'cause god knows guys like Bright don't pull any punches or make any concessions. I've seen him post stupid shit like "Meh." and "Not feeling it." all the fucking time but no one says a word. Oh, but I say the t-word and it's "BRO YOUR POSTS ARE SO SHITTY!!!" Give it a rest.
He was banned after this, so I sent him this message to inform him of his ban:
This message is to inform you that you've received a 24 hour ban from the SCP Wiki for low-content posting. You will be able to reapply to join the site again once 24 hours have passed from the time of your initial ban, which will happen immediately after this message is sent. The details on why you were banned, and general disciplinary history, can be found here: http://05command.wikidot.com/forum/t-1348025/bbaztek
If you have any questions or concerns you may message me or another member of the Disciplinary team.

He then sent me some rude messages:
Lol. Fucking faggot
did big bad bbaztek hurt your widdle feelings? Pussy.
Wish I could ban people whenever they disagreed with me about something instead of leveling with them like a man. Would make a life a lot easier, don't ya think?
Go upvote some more faggy reddit shit you queers
Don't forget to post these messages in that thread so you and your crew can high five each and pop bottles of juicy juice or whatever you fags drink.
I tried to level with you but you decided to treat me like some scrub and ignore my posts over some one-line shitposts because I'm not dying on a hill for social justice bullshit on a fiction site. I'll remember to make sure my username's "DrBright" next time I wanna post unfunny one-line shitposts.
Peace nigga, I hope your next scip about the taco XDD that thinks it's a real boy XDD is a smash fucking hit.
He actually sent me this message as I was compiling all of the messages into one post for ease of listening, so… I guess request granted?
