Where is Martin54?

in The Styx
I'm curious. Has he left the Ship?

As for “you’re entitled to get in touch and try to convince us that you’re worth having back on board,” I read that to mean he could try to convince the crew that his positive contributions to discussions on the Ship would not be dwarfed by the ongoing extra work and need for attention he created for the admins and mods, or the regular derailment of threads he caused.

It's not him it's his posts that are/were the problem.
Unlike speech, typing gives us thinking time. Martin54 is asked to use that think to prevent confusion and hurt. That's all. Easy if motivated imo.
And, there's no place on the Ship to do that about someone who is not currently here to respond.
So, please stop.

The worst part of these discussion fora is how so many posters seem to entirely project themselves or a simple external narrative, complete with extrapolation about right versus wrong based entirely on those handy little mental fictions.
"But I like them!" or "You just don't understand - they're not really an asshole" are not meaningful or useful.
Sincerely, I stand before you - an asshole - and un-banned simply because I can follow rules and directions sufficient to make the Crew's lives easier. Or, at least, I don't cause quite enough problems to impair them from floating this collection of narrow-minded badgers who apparently lack the basic affability required to engage with real social media or friends to hash out every random thought that crosses their heads.
Seriously, though, I trust that @Martin54 is aware of the fact that some folk are asking after him, and hoping that he is (IRL) OK.
