Staci Griebel, at Unique Snowflake has managed to shatter Dawn Olsen's record for banning me. After posting a mere five comments each on two different posts, trying to explain my point of view, I was most rudely banned. It's as if Saddam Hussein himself were running the place... 'No dissenting views allowed here. Thank you for playing, good bye.'

First I got the 'don't go away angry, just go away' spiel from Staci's roommate, a commenter named Raven. (italics mine)

Just go away. You have your own blog to be mindlessely, blindly jingoistic on. Opposing viewpoints are quite welcome here, I'm sure, but only if they're well thought out and have some factual backing behind them. ...You lose. Shoo.

Wrong on that one Raven. Opposing viewpoints are definitely NOT welcome there. At first, she seemed to genuinely want to debate, but I could tell she was hoping I'd get the feeling that I wasn't welcome there and just go away. Then Staci sealed it with this gem.

Let me ask you this... Do you know how a bomb works?

Followed quickly by the final kiss off and ban..

And I agree, go back to your own blog. I don't go to people's blogs who I /know/ I'm going to disagree with to post on their comments.

Well then Staci, I don't ever expect to see you here then, although you are always welcome to contradict my views without fear of persecution. Ravenwood's Universe is a dictator free zone, and you'll never hear me say "I'm getting very very good at banning IPs."

I love how some people just cannot face logic or a difference of opinion. My parting advice for Snowflake is that if she doesn't want people to comment, she shouldn't allow comments. You're much more likely to get respect without the pussy 'comment only if you agree with me' bullshit attitude.
