Of note, the author does have a bit of history attempting to skirt guidelines, such as with this message sent to me on 26 Dec 2024, 02:23 (it was not the user's second time messaging me about this query, the last contact I received from them was on the 21st for an unrelated question):
Zyn, am I now authorized to ask for a draft critique? I have 3 articles that go over 10 upvotes (+4, +4, +3). I just need to get a greenlight then I can post in the drafts critique, right? Thank you! This is my second time messaging you.
As the user is still posting new pages to the site (the most recent was from under a day ago), emergency permanent bans have been enacted. Queerious supported. All accounts involved have been PMed; they may appeal if inclined.
