Someone who has been nuked can buy their way back into the forum with a donation to the Wizards choice?
Same kind of thing with less of a donation if you’ve been suspended.
I think there are some twitter people that do that with blocking people.
Just an idea.

It should be done with fast food gift
cards sent right to the Wiz. A $100
Wendy's card get's you a 3 month
trial run, blow that and you're back
to being banned.

When I was going through my financial crisis, before selling this site, some suggested selling "indulgences." In other words, a cash option to get out of serving a suspension. I highly doubt the new owner would be interested either.

Unfortunately, for a low income earner like Nathan, such help is very difficult to afford. Since she probably doesn't have a formal diagnosis that would be covered by insurance, if she even has insurance, I'm guessing the $100 an hour or so would be prohibitive. It's too bad.

She should qualify for Medicaid. With the Medicaid expansion the income level should be around 2k a month. I think she has mentioned before that she only makes 14k a year. It could be tough to find a psychiatrist that takes Medicaid she should be able to find a psychologist or lcsw.
I can give her a formal diagnosis for free.Quote: SOOPOOUnfortunately, for a low income earner like Nathan, such help is very difficult to afford.

After that, I will only charge half the going rate.
The Wizard already offered me the position of the resident psychologist here(it certainly seems to be needed). I think the WOV/WOO owners are now responsible for offering help to its members. I'm sure they can afford to pay me $50 an hour. And of course, I will suggest online gambling as part of the their therapy.
Because in MY opinion, not yet disputed by other moderators, Nathan's post was part of a deliberate strategy of defying clear warnings about starting spurious and totally inane threads often about Nathan. Had that not happened, and had Nathan not shown a certain pattern of behaviour, Nathan's thread would have been more acceptable.Quote: RSWhy does Nathan’s thread get closed ( https://wizardofvegas.com/forum/off-topic/off-topic/30983-things-that-most-people-dont-know-about-you/#post653733 ), but EvenBob’s thread about “things I’ve never done” not get any heat? I guarantee if Nathan started that same thread EB did, there’d have been massive backlash.
I do acknowledge that some other members here post spurious and totally inane threads, but those members have not been explicitly instructed not to do so.
Nathan has given very clear indications that she is trying to play this community and its members for fools. Her carefully crafted recent posts indicate that she is not of low IQ and some posts are quite cleverly nuanced ( see her recent trip report, which I suggest is an excellent parody of our typical trip report.)
EvenBob is also quite skilled at not breaking rules here and heaven forbid he ever gets accused of trolling, bless his cotton socks. EvenBob knows where he stands and his contribution is considerable. Nathan has pushed her luck too far with this moderator and now she knows where she stands. She defied BBB and now she gets the chance to defy me.

If that thread had been started by any other member of the forum, it wouldn’t have been deleted. It wouldn’t have been thought of as annoying and certainly not deleted. She simply posted a few songs she likes and asked what songs others like.

I know, right? He was just having fun with himself in a darkened room. Besides he was wearing a disguise meaning he was not trying to be recognized. On a funny side note, if the incident happened in 2018 he could have claimed that he was the actor who portrays Sheldon on The Big Bang Theory(Jim Parsons) I kid, I kid, (But seriously Jim Parsons looks like a younger Paul Reubens, ;)
