That'd be my guess. DU3 jury system sucks, as long as we're all meta in this thread.

Whisp has been PPRed [View all] pintobean Sep 2014 OP
as did oldhippie hrmjustin Sep 2014 #1
That one was an ass. nt boston bean Sep 2014 #7
Um I didn't follow him but skinner agreed. hrmjustin Sep 2014 #9
I noticed he was pretty hateful to women. bettyellen Sep 2014 #20
That is probably why he was ppr'ed. hrmjustin Sep 2014 #24
I think being here 10 years and then PPR'd as a troll... DeadLetterOffice Sep 2014 #29
Well troll can mean anything. hrmjustin Sep 2014 #30
Totally get it. DeadLetterOffice Sep 2014 #37
Apt descriptor. Old hippies I know offline were nothing JimDandy Sep 2014 #209
Just so. As an unreconstructed freak in good standing, I felt his handle was inaccurate. riqster Sep 2014 #343
He was also a pro-nuclear troll. I'm happy to hear he's gone. nt bananas Sep 2014 #552
I don't get the Admins using the "sock" reason- for that weird rapey poster @ Discussionist, or bettyellen Sep 2014 #31
Yeah I was not please either with that reason. hrmjustin Sep 2014 #33
I think his MO was to deliberately creep out women.... bettyellen Sep 2014 #226
It might suck, but rules are for everyone. moriah Sep 2014 #111
Skinner explained that The Straight Story Sep 2014 #161
Ack, the link isn't opening now, but thanks for trying to explain! bettyellen Sep 2014 #217
Unfortunately BainsBane Sep 2014 #461
It's an easy out - TBF Sep 2014 #303
and to use that same message for Pipsquawk BainsBane Sep 2014 #424
and yet the community didn't hide a single post in the past 90 days. Gormy Cuss Sep 2014 #55
It says no hide. hrmjustin Sep 2014 #57
That's why I limited it to 90 days. n/t Gormy Cuss Sep 2014 #61
It could have been an alert that didn't get a hide. pintobean Sep 2014 #62
I'm guessing there were many alerts on his posts in the past 90 days. Gormy Cuss Sep 2014 #63
No, there were no alerts on him .... PsychoBunny Sep 2014 #119
How would you know if any of his posts were alerted? JTFrog Sep 2014 #122
Because he is my grandfather PsychoBunny Sep 2014 #128
Sad. Say bye back, and wish him all the best. polly7 Sep 2014 #134
Actually that was his sock BainsBane Sep 2014 #444
Even he wouldn't know if his posts were alerted unless they were hidden. JTFrog Sep 2014 #135
posters do not know if they were alerted on unless the alert ended in a hide or someone notifies uppityperson Sep 2014 #256
If he "pissed off HoF" their influence lies in alerting. Gormy Cuss Sep 2014 #131
hof has ZERO frickin influence on skinner. boston bean Sep 2014 #136
The person you are responding to has just been delivered a pizza. William769 Sep 2014 #414
LOL. Thanks for letting me know... boston bean Sep 2014 #422
HOF has less than no influence w/ Admin... and he would never know if anyone alerted on him bettyellen Sep 2014 #223
Exactly what influence on Skinner would that be? NuclearDem Sep 2014 #282
Post fail bro. Agschmid Sep 2014 #306
Those kind of comments are disrespectful to Skinner BainsBane Sep 2014 #453

I didn't get her locked out... I guess someone should have sent a memo. JTFrog Sep 2014 #364
A memo?... TeeYiYi Sep 2014 #367
Yes. I'm suggesting I didn't realize she was locked out of the thread after a jury let her post stay JTFrog Sep 2014 #368
talk about bad form ... Tuesday Afternoon Sep 2014 #558
I really don't know what you're referring to... TeeYiYi Sep 2014 #586
if you think about the banning, you would realize it can't possibly be the truth. boston bean Sep 2014 #153
Yes, I know. Did you ever get an explanation? nt sufrommich Sep 2014 #157
I searched under the two names listen on her PPR message myself BainsBane Sep 2014 #273

Well, I do trust Skinner, btw. AverageJoe90 Sep 2014 #211
Well it might have been a combination of things. hrmjustin Sep 2014 #213
check out his last few posts ecstatic Sep 2014 #230
anti choice, anti women posts CreekDog Sep 2014 #234
Don't think I ever saw his "anti-choice" posts, but then again I'm not exactly surprised. nomorenomore08 Sep 2014 #291

He was PPR'd as a troll BainsBane Sep 2014 #376
I wish we got more than I trooll response so I have no idea why he was banned. hrmjustin Sep 2014 #377
Can you find a post that would suggest that? BainsBane Sep 2014 #379
No I never really read his thread. hrmjustin Sep 2014 #380
Oh, I suppose BainsBane Sep 2014 #381
The reason I doubt it is because the ppr message would have mentioned it. hrmjustin Sep 2014 #382
That is a good point. BainsBane Sep 2014 #383
It looks like you were right that oldhippie had socks. hrmjustin Sep 2014 #432
