I will give them 24 hours to contact me. If I don't hear from them in that time, the username will be (temporarily) banned.

Thanks for reporting it. I deleted it.

There were a handful of short threads started. I've saved the replies, so if someone wants theirs, send me a PM.

this is kevin/kay ("kayvin") who is banned from bakerstreet

I couldn't find any evidence of this person ever having been banned previously on Bakerstreet. But after doing some research, I feel comfortable going ahead and banning all of their accounts anyway. Yikes.

pretty sure they were banned from fort anon.

(frozen comment) Re: da

[korofel]

Yeah, that's part of what I uncovered. But looking over the ban list it had never been brought up to us Bakerstreet mods before last night.

Did you not find in your research that Kay is a trans woman? Which makes the first anon's deadnaming and your use of 'their' kinda... really really not okay?

Something to consider. Literally regardless of what someone has done, three years ago or last year or yesterday, misgendering and deadnaming are not okay. I would like to think bakerstreetmods can do better.

Why exactly?

What have they done recently?

(frozen comment) Re: da2

[korofel]

Yes, I did come across that bit of information. And you're absolutely right that deadnaming people is not okay. But since when is using gender neutral terms misgendering?

Come back when you learn how to troll and white knight better anon.

They have been banned from other meme coms. This is not a new thing, it's just that only now it's being brought up to us so it's happening now.

The ban was three years ago you fucking TERF.

(frozen comment) da

[(Anonymous)]

Anything more recent than three years? Like, for real.

(frozen comment)

[korofel]

Yes, it was. However her conduct was inappropriate enough that we are uninterested in lifting the ban. If someone had brought it up to us then, we would have banned her then. We simply did not know about it until last night.

Because no one ever changes.

No one learns from mistakes.

Especially not you.

They're not neutral pronouns when you know someone's gender, and particularly on trans women using 'they' instead of 'she' can be deliberately degendering. It is used as a hostile tactic by people who want to make trans women feel othered and... Again, something to be aware of.

I really don't know how I could have phrased this more politely or neutrally, so being called a troll and a white knight is... just really revealing. Not a good luck on you, bakerstreetmods.

In the future, I will interact with bakerstreet the same way that I interact with wankgate -- that is to say, not at all -- because it's clear I was mistaken to expect any better from the mod team here.

jfc since when did they/their/them become degendering? not like people are referring to kayvin as "it" and "they" is a gender neutral term for those of us not comfortable with kayvin using the trans label to get away with all the skeevy shit they pulled.

for someone who feels the need to say they don't interact with wankgate, you sure sound like one of kayvin's whiteknights who try to deflect every thread about them there into being about their fucking gender.

Try not deadnaming her.
