It's just foolish to blame CE because most of the people were trying to get him to face reality and the severity of his situation and he responded with mockery

This,

there was no shortage of people offering help and really really really good advice.

Every time they were threatened and insulted.

Dawkins certainly deserved to be banned, but let's not pretend certain people didn't do their part. There were more than a couple topics created by others about him that were little more than an attempt at circlejerk harassment against him that the mods did nothing about.

How do you police that though? They let him get away with more stuff than they would with most other people. The rules are pretty simple. He couldn't follow them and didn't get punished (that much) for not following them so it turned into a circle jerk.

The vast majority tried to help him but he was always just abusive and made threats in return. He brought the ban on himself by trying to turn our negative reactions into a legal issue for the site, though he actually brought that negativity himself and constantly fed it.

I sincerely hope this is a permanent ban and he'll take it as proof that he needs to change the way he deals with others.

Just delete/lock the topic. It's that simple. Then let him get himself banned without others helping him get said ban along the way.


I mean no one told him to threaten a DDOS attack on an individual and a giant company. So that worked out perfectly.

What it comes down to is he was mentally unstable with no ability to respect or listen to authority. He can't function on his own as an adult (based on his behavior and psychologist notes he provided)

He never should have been allowed to post here to begin with.

That is fucking bullshit. Dustin was not harassed here. Calling him out on his hateful garbage is NOT harassment. If anything, Dustin was the harasser. He was known for being a bully (threatening to DoS people or leak information about them). He is also the prime suspect for flooding the chat room with child porn because he didnt get his way. In no shape or form is Dustin the victim here.


I already said he derserved to be banned. Just because he was bad doesn't mean no one else could possibly have been bad when dealing with him. Making topics about his stupid videos just to incite a circlejerk is pretty much harassment, although I doubt those ever got modded.

The only person who ever made topics about his videos was himself...

No, there are actually several posters who did create topics regarding his vids. IIRC @LightningAce11 made the last one and @Sparksfanboy made a few. I'm aboard the "fuck Dawkins" train we're on, but let's not pretend this train didn't have a rotating schedule of conductors over the years.

Lots of people did, but only after Dawkins had already posted them himself. As soon as Dawkins posted a video on YouTube then hed advertise it on GameFAQs. He whored this forum for views. Dont act like people scoured the internet for his videos.


How am I acting anything like that? If you'd read the rest of my post, you'd notice there is no need to get defensive and go putting words in my mouth.
And you're still wrong at that. There have been several times Dawkins was suspended/warned when he uploaded a new video which caused someone to create a topic regarding them. What likely happened is that those posters, amused by his antics, subscribed to his channel or had it show up in their feed due to watch history.

Wtf I had no idea he made a video like that. Shouldn't it be reported to protect the people he was threatening to the FBI or whoever deals with that. Bomb threats should be taken seriously

People on this board say I'm a horrible person, but look at how many people are literally defending an organized campaign to harass someone with a mental disorder. And I can see why the mods are so popular with these trolls; not only are people basically confessing to harassing him, and victim blaming him, but the mods are perfectly okay with not even giving them a 3KL for harassment.

Thats definitely WAY over the line. But Dawkins brought this crap on himself. Hes the one who takes every opportunity to post his own personal documents. Its not really our fault that one crazy nutter collected all his personal information. Dont post your shit on the internet.

He definitely brought it on himself, and CE isn't to blame for his problems. But we can at least agree that the people who do that kind of thing are shitty people right?

Its just like giving tips to women so they don't become victims of sexual assault. Y'know things like be careful to not accept drinks from strangers, try to have a friend with you at all times, basically just don't put yourself in vulnerable situations. Now if a woman ignores all of those things and acts incredibly recklessly and is sexually assaulted, the guy who did the assaulting is still a piece of shit no matter what. Of course online harassment isn't comparable to rape, which I know would be the first thing trolls would like to point out, but as usual the severity and level of heinousness of the act committed isn't relevant to the analogy at all.

So moving past that, I think its important to acknowledge that just because one side is wrong, doesn't mean the other side is right.

It's not like we started googling some random person from the forum and started digging into his personal life. Dawkins went out of his way to make us a part of his little life drama. Of course we're going to follow up on it when shit gets interesting. Don't post every little detail about your life and then complain when someone learns some little something that you didn't want them too. No one would have learned about Dawkins charge in NC if he hadn't been posting almost daily updates to his other court case.

You keep saying "of course" as if that's obviously the same course of action everyone would take. It's not. And as much as dawkins went out of his way to make you a part of his little life drama, you went out of your way to entrench yourself in his unstable life.
