Black Lives Matter.

Just because we're on a new page and I don't want the main meaning behind the thread to get lost.

What was he trying to achieve by spamming her thread though? No-one would disagree that black lives do matter, of course they do. Did he think copy+pasting it over and over would win over the hypothetical racists? Or was he trying to get a rise out of people?

No he was just posting different incidents of Trump's racism. Is he not allowed?

Ah I misread, I thought he’d posted 34 BLM rather than those (informative, some I hadn’t heard of) posts

It was posts about trump then black lives matter (which was also posted as black.lives.matter each word in different posts = spam) and then insults

I can completely understand the insults not being productive (and it’s a shame, as quite truthfully without those insults, it would’ve been a very good point well made)

If the member had created a thread about trump and posted those comments yesterday it could have been an interesting informative discussion (I actually sat and read them all again because I was interested in the points being made) but that's not what the member wanted instead they wanted a reaction which is why they then went onto posting insults.

I don't recall seeing any insults? And I highly doubt it was for a reaction, she was trying to raise awareness for the type of person Trump is to people who have made the fact they support him very clear.

Depends on the intent. I don't know if anyone in that thread was a Trump supporter, but why spam a chat thread with stuff he's said and done? If anyone still likes Trump, they're probably aware of all that sh1+ and don't care.

Sometimes people are fighting a losing battle, and/or preaching to a choir who doesn't care and doesn't need to see it in every thread Starting a thread called "Trump's racism" would have been more constructive.

If he did create a separate thread he still would've been banned for spam. So I don't get this point.

No they wouldnt, creating a thread full of informative posts that spark debate and awareness isnt spam

We made different threads because we wanted everyone's story to be heard and it's hard to tell the story if it's all in the same thread

Creating so many threads would cause a lot of them to be overlooked and not get replies whereas someone reading through a sole thread would see all of the posts and be able to acknowledge and comment

This isn't a dig but it's a shame you werent here to put it across like this - we were told by the other admin to discuss corona instead.

Nothing you can say or twist around as to your ‘reasoning’ for banning us all (especially Qua who literally just got back from a ban and was banned hours later) for literally talking about BLM. You can say spamming but that was literally my first time saying ‘black lives matter’ in that thread and am pretty sure spamming is what is something which is repeated. I think you should just own up to a mistake and unban Qua as he was literally just making his point. People that weren’t even banned dont wanna return to TIBB anymore after all that yesterday

Banning us all? Only 2 bans yesterday were for spamming but this has all already been posted earlier in the thread....try reading through it.

There were not 40 threads, 15 at a push but all with details of a life lost in different situations.

Certainly didn't clog up the forum like I've seen spam in the last few months talking about 'manshuns' or whatever irrelevant BS trolling was taking up the whole side bar.

I did check before I said 40 - there are 14 separate threads still up in SD and then the merged thread had 21 different ones in it

yeah the locking of the paige, morgan, lucas etc threads 2 minutes after they were posted and also blocking our pm’s so we couldn’t even ask why we got the bans was so stupid nnn

No one blocked your private messages, that's automatic.

These accusations are getting overly silly now.

I think weve spent plenty of time replying to all queries that have been posted in here.
