edit: full list of banned usernames is in the comments.
We have a new ruleset now, so we are looking to invite people back who were banned for violating the old rules, but would be OK under the new rules.
Unfortunately, as some of you have read, the list of bans is mostly filled with sock accounts that hate Dom or pedo pajeet alts (those are thankfully pretty obvious because they're all from anime he watched). This makes it difficult to sort out if anyone should be unbanned because there are 40 pages of this stuff. We could just unban everyone and start from scratch, but for obvious reasons I don't think that would be advisable.
The only name I can think of at the moment is trump4045, since he was banned for some political thing that wasn't allowed under the old rules. Can anyone think of anyone else?
current list of unbans:
edit: Graphenium has raised the problem of enabling vote manipulation by unbanning multiple alts, so that is likely off the table.
edit: SNES_X said he is OK with continuing to post under his current account.
edit: the following users will be unbanned today
- theunpopular1

Dom would drop a permaban in an instant if a poster mentioned what was going on in Weimar Germany. I saw it happen multiple times.
It wasn’t difficult at all.
Were they newish users by any chance? He always did enjoy nuking them as part of his efforts to strangle the community.
Not all of them. But I'm sure Dom thought they were new due to not recognizing their names since he rarely ever participated in threads himself to see who was actually posting around here.
He would just check in to look at the mod log and ban anyone who had been reported.
Sounds about right. It wasn't all malice. There was a bit of retardation mixed in too.
I mean to be fair, does anyone want to know ALL THE DETAILS of what happened in Weimar Germany?
It makes you go 'well, on the other hand' when referring to the mustache man! I'm happy with just invoking it's name as to why we should ignore progressives.
What actually was going on or what some random guy read online?
Seems either would be enough to get that response.
I really doubt that. It's just that whoever supports a regime that comes after a given regime tries to blacken the name of what came before.
Most of the criticisms of Weimar make little sense and are made by people who don't know what they're talking about. That said, the fact that Weimar went from one crisis to another to its demise being cheered by most people shows what a disaster it was.
