    This Week in Gawker Commenter Executions

    commentban.jpgWe're in a surly mood this week at Gawker; surly and curt. After the jump we determine who lives and who dies, giving impossibly brief rationales for our executions. Yours, though, is not to reason why, yours is merely to comment and then face our wrath. The newly departed lie in state below.

  • Executed: Bob Loblaw
    Crime: Bad satire.

  • Executed: BrianVan
    Crime: Doltishness.

  • Executed: Traffy
    Crime: Copyediting.

  • Executed: Cory
    Crime: No.

    Disputants may consult the Gawker Comments FAQ, section 5. However, note also that this manner of death isn't really permanent. Banned commenters may return through invitations or through future general amnesties. Existing commenters should also feel free to nominate other commenters for future bannings; doing so will, of course, raise one's own potential banning profile.
