As of now the policies are aimed at Bench, alot worse Flame Wars go on and are simply ignored while Bench is singled-out for "overusing" the word idiot.
They are not aimed at imabench. They are aimed at people like Stalin and all the other annoying trolls who get away with $hit to often.
Upon what grounds do you think he was "singled out"?
He has asserted as such and, while it's not an entirely implausible claim, I do not believe it.
@jif
You don't have to meet someone to approve of the words they speak or the humor they provide freely.
And I know for a fact that you didn't know imabench on any level. I mean, you only have like 70 forum posts. You can't make any judgement s on what he was really like. There was a reason he was the most singled out user on the site, and its because he would always flame people.
Also, 90% of his debates were troll ones. Not saying he was a bad member, but you know nothing about him.

Sire I have under 100 forum posts, but I enjoy reading his forums often. (and watching the weekly stupid)
The problem isn't exactly that you like him, but the consistency of how much you've been praising him. You havn't seen the kind of abuse he put on some members. Some were even pushed to the edge. Talk to Josh_B or birdsandlanes if you want to know more.

So did the problem suddenly change from I had no clue who he was too, I like him too much? Well anyways, he's won more debates than any other user on the site even if the majority are troll debates. In addition as I said before he freely provides humor to users, and you know what I actually will ask josh and bird how they've been abused.
Good, they'll give you all kinds of stories of times he attacked members. C*********- never forget
He attempted to push me to the edge, but failed to do so.
He does that with everyone. He was a dck to members, and no one would come to peoples defense due to him. And he would purposely ask members to flame you. Not to mention his tendency to vote bomb members he doesn't like.
Well it doesn't matter anymore as he has learned his lesson and has decided to not stay. The worst part is I actually feel bad for him as the reason he did this to everyone was because of seeing his dad suffer and die from cancer.
Yeah, I guess a lot of his flaming was a result of his personal life. Oh well, I hope he a good life FAR FAR away from this site.

Even so... If you have something horrible happen in your personal life, it shouldn't be taken out on others as it is not no one else's fault. Including the person who has to deal with those circumstances.
Yeah I mean... I think if you were able to get past that hard shell of Imabench, you'd see a much more beautiful person inside.Though he isn't willing to come out of his shell.
I have nothing really against the rules.
Jif you are so uptight all the time? Why is that?
Jif is not wound up all the time, you people are just have minimal capabilities and attention spans of flies. Why don't you work on your own short comings and stop trying to "fix' other people. Hey there is a good start.
He's a big part of debate.org history as he has 1200 votes casted on debates, 250 opinion arguments, 1400 poll votes, and over 400 debates won. In addition he has caused no actual harm to any DDO user who was respectful or honest.
He's a really cool guy; I asked him 100 or so questions and he answered them all without a slight hint of being bothered.
I stated, if I became prez. I'd change it to accept one person as an exception to the rules: imabench.
The whole website for one user?
In general, I don't think any policy should be written with a specific user in mind.
Why do you keep praising Imabench. You didn't even know the guy.
I have nothing against him... heck I don't even know him, but rules are necessary.
No, I hope YoYo leaves and commits to leaving. But he won't he is an attention seeking groupie. Don't keep feeding his validation fix.
No
