"laconicsax deliberately caused a graphic shock-content image to appear on Democratic Underground, which is a clear violation of our Terms of Service. This violation was made even worse by the fact that it was done maliciously -- laconicsax caused the image to appear in another member's post, then alerted on the post himself (even including the words "shock content" in the alert message) in an effort to have that member blocked out of the discussion. "

I'm pretty sure if TOS had been checked, EarlG would have noted that, but the stated issue was trying to get him blocked from the discussion, NOT "trying to PPR him".

I don't think he was trying to get him PPR'd kdmorris Jun 2012 #30

I don't think it was determined whether or not he did TOS alert. Neoma Jun 2012 #33

I think the PPR note itself states that it wasn't kdmorris Jun 2012 #34

TOS wasn't checked. I'm on MIRT and we did not receive a notification. WhollyHeretic Jun 2012 #35
