reason: Admitting to being a troll: "I'm an agent of chaos."

Absolutely the limpest reason to temp ban someone from a shitposting community. From the context it was obviously an offhanded joke, not an actual admission of someone trying to disrupt the community.

Ah so that's the thread in question. Was wondering what post it was and honestly, I suspected that one of being rage bait.

The original image seemed like it was missing context so I figured OP was gonna come swinging in later against any comments saying it was extreme with the additional context.

And yes, out of context I thought it was a bit extreme. I don't necessarily agree with what the first person in the image said although that's a complex topic that deserves a much lengthier discussion, but just randomly having someone tell them that they're a creep who deserves to be tased is fairly extreme without any additional context. Keep in mind, I have no idea who the individual is or what they've done.
