Short version
A few years ago a guy was creepy and harassing at Readercon to several women. He was banned for life. This year a guy was creepy and harassing at Readercon to several women. But he was a guest of honour and on one of the panels. He was banned for 2 years because he "showed real contrition". Fandom is going apeshit bonkers at the board of Readercon.
Edit: In both cases they claim to have a zero-tolerance policy, in the latter they've just ignored it, which is what's bunching all the panties.

Cool story.
I have no idea what Readercon is, but I don't want to say so in case you explain it.

I don't know either. I've just been reading the comment threads about harassment and what a bunch of fuckwits "the board" are.

Are they as bad as the twats who arrested a seventeen year old boy for being a tool?
Because frankly, if that's the criterion for arrest, the fucking borstals would be ten to a room by now.

Wtf?!
/board are a lovely bunch of people.
Just make sure you post a funny un-shopped pic you found on the net in at leas 2000x3000 px. And make sure it doesn't have any magenta cocks in it.
