I got my IP at work banned on slashdot today for posting about Ferguson. On a Ferguson story no less. This is not the first time the editors there have banned me from being able to access the site entirely due to disagreeing with my posts.
The pink ban page I get says it's because I'm using scripts to post or spamming or posting things that break the comment rendering or DoSing the site. This is what pisses me off. I am merely posting things that get consistently modded -1. I'm not breaking anything.
In the past, they usually just temporarily ban the IP for heavily downmodded posts. It's a ban message that comes up when you try to post anonymously. I've found when I really piss the editors off, they ban me from being able to access the site completely.
I mean, I didn't even hit my 10 anonymous post limit. Fuck slashdot. Bunch of agenda-driven fucktards.
Sorry for the offtopic post. This seemed relevant since the thread is about Ferguson, and I just found out I can't load slashdot about 10 minutes ago. God damn shit site with a shit community anyway.
