seriously, why cant they just usermap axe these people
would be a simpler solution in this world but they won't do that.
They managed to keep Dawkins off the site yet all these other weirdos get to stick around.
Dawkins threatened to sue the site, apparently that's an instant and cohesive ban.
There's a framework for keeping troublesome users off the site. I don't know why it takes them committing just one specific offense for them to use it while giving everyone else a million different chances to turn their behavior around. They'll kick one dude off for threatening the site but they'll just look the other way when dudes like Hoth are revealing private info and harassing people.
I agree completely, multiple users have been doxxed and otherwise harassed through their activity on this website by a user on this website. But because their info isn't posted on GameFAQs itself, the doxxer gets off scot free. It's disgraceful.
It's really down to @SBAllen's incompetence at running the site and CBSi's mismanagement. Allen is totally incapable of growing the site with any amount of success, so he's mostly focused on squeezing whatever ad revenue out of what's left of the flagging userbase. White supremacists trolls still drive engagement and page views, so he's not going to ban them and risk losing out on whatever value he can still salvage from this place. The only time he's going to take a hard measure is when people start going over his head and shit rolls downhill from GameFAQ's parent company. ---
