We’re banning Manbearpanda for 1 month. Their recent responses on this post have been condescending, overconfident, and uncivil. Responding to a comment by referring to the discussion as “‘Effective’ ‘Altruists’ circle jerking around yet another wrong answer” is not a good way to get to the truth behind a disagreement. I also don’t think it was reasonable or helpful to dismiss a comment in the discussion as “rambling, poorly formatted and incoherent.” And the last comment seemed to totally devolve into an ad hominem and passive-aggressive attack.
Please note that bans affect the person behind the account, not the account itself.
If Manbearpanda comes back, we’ll hold them to a high standard, according to our norms.
