The Great Purge

This page or section is about an ongoing event. Check again later for more coverage.

The Great Purge, also known as Operation Unthinkable is an event that started on 3rd of September where Froot decided to indiscriminately ban anyone who posted on certain 50 board plan boards. The ban orders were as follows:

• /fur/ -- posters were banned permanently;^{[it just is, ok?]}
• /dawla/ -- posters were banned for a whole day;
• /mlp/ -- posters were banned permanently.

Lee gets caught in the crossfire

This decision came under heavy criticism from the (unbanned) portion of soy community.

1. None of the banned posters broke any established rules
2. Therefore banning them actually goes against the rules for jannies/mods; (>🤓)
3. A portion of banned users weren't even the intended ban targets;
4. PPH on /soy/ had noticeably dropped;^{[it just is, ok?]}
5. Shortly after the ban waves, the 'log became more coally than usual during Euro Hours
6. This sets a precedent that anyone can get banned anytime for any reason.
7. Discourages posting in any of the other FOTM boards, solidifying their deadness

Just in, the bans seem to be getting appealed.
