Gamergate transgression

Can you evaluate this passage by Dungeonaddict? The entire tone is sneering/snarky and unsourced, and just seems like troll fodder. Really, this is the sort of thing that should get people tossed out of the arena per the discretionary sanctions guidelines.

I hate coming and bugging you about this, but there's no real avenue to go to to bring this to admins generally...unless the GG sanction talk page is viable, but who knows how many admins have that on watch. Tarc (talk) 20:17, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

I could potentially set-up a "requests for enforcement" page, similar to this one. The standard avenue to request enforcement sans one of those pages is to go to AN. RGloucester — ☎ 20:39, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

Or maybe you could ask the user to not make such remarks of such color in the future? Or are we going straight to sanctions with no talking or communication? Tutelary (talk) 20:47, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

We're well beyond the talking page, and beyond the need to ask people not to post snarky, weaselly ("the usual suspects", "keep that echo chamber nice and tight", etc...) baiting. This user was notified 2 weeks ago.

Lets agree to disagree. I'll stop being snarky, and you guys stop calling me things I'm not. --DSA510 Pls No H8 21:06, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

RGloucester, that actually sounds like a good idea, though again I wonder at how many will see it. If you create it, could you post a message to WP:AN, to solicit a few admins to keep an eye on it for new requests? Tarc (talk) 20:53, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

That is a good idea, RGloucester, so is posting to WP:AN. Dreadstar ☥ 21:07, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

You guys don't even buy me dinner. Fine, I'll remove the snark, but I just wanted to inform everyone beforehand of Operation Skynet. --DSA510 Pls No H8 20:49, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for editing out the comments about others. For future reference, commenting on others violates the Gamergate General Sanctions, specifically the expected standards of behavior and if continued can lead to sanctions. I see the entire section was removed per WP:NOTFORUM. Dreadstar ☥ 21:07, 12 November 2014 (UTC)
