Right, so after the kerfuffle with concerneduser occurred (last sighted in 17 at 13:15 EDT), WestyDude posted in 17:
[14:59] WestyDude Yo, I'm receiving PMs from a guy named "concerneduser", who is repeatedly calling me a facist and telling me to go kill myself. Is this a chat user of some kind?
[14:59] WestyDude fascist*
'Coon got a copy of the PMs Westy claimed to have received, but the style of writing was not the same at all. After some sleuthing (props to 'Coon here), chops decided the incident looked really fishy and that Westy most likely did not receive any messages from concerneduser (who we do believe is a different user entirely), so 'Coon confronted Westy directly in 17:

[16:21] ProcyonLotor Damn straight you will.
[16:21] ProcyonLotor Your agreement with it has ceased to matter.

[16:24] ProcyonLotor I mean, I know I'm supposed to maintain an air of professionality here. Have to conduct myself in a manner becoming of staff, after all. But fuck it, damn the torpedoes.
[16:24] ProcyonLotor You're a real piece of shit, you know that?
[16:24] WestyDude Yes
[16:24] Zyn Coony.
[16:24] Zyn You want to head back to your vacation?

[16:25] ProcyonLotor Perma.
[16:25] =-= WestyDude was booted from #site17 by ProcyonLotor (Now get out and don't come back.)
Consensus among chops online at the time (myself, 'Coon, sal, and Silber, plus ARD) was permaban from chat for trolling and malicious action against another user. I would also highly, highly recommend removing Westy (
Westrin on the wiki) from whatever staff roles he has. I've already taken the liberty of removing him from membership on 05.
