Yes, on the user's page you can already see the number of users who have banned that user:
Hmmm, the sorting doesn't work. I'll fix that, and I'll add the number of bans too.
OK, the sorting is fixed:

Now onward to get counts of how many other users each user is banning.
Dang, he's the least deserving to be banned.
There are two incarnations of Apocalypsefuck. See this page:
Now you can see who is banning the most users:

Ban used to be "ignore" so the numbers most reflect who was ignoring other users before the function was renamed and modified to simply ban posting on the user's threads.
Onward to getting name lists...
Now you can see who is banning the most users:
I see Pinky the Pink Panther has banned me. he he he
Most people who are still around enjoy the disagreement and occasional 'heated' arguments, so I doubt it will devolve to 2 echo chambers. The only idiot that has gotten me to ban him did it by spamming threads with inane, repetitive, and nonsensical, bullshit and lots of pictures. Certain thread topics have gotten more productive since the ban function was implemented.

Yes, but those battles and street fights were fun too.

Oops...I meant the Pink Pussy.
Doesn't show who has banned who :)
OK @FP I got it. Now on any userpage, you can see who has banned whom.
CBOE is right that PatNet can be used for a phychological study.
Patrick, you should either analyze and publish the data (here's your advertisement) or sell it. So make sure you record all data that may be of interest.

At times, yeah. I like the option of Thunderdome for the slug fests and normal mode for more intelligent discussion.

Must be a bug. Says I'm banned by '1' but doesn't list any users.
Now you can see who is banning the most users:
This should be called: The Wimpy Wussy Snowflake List.
Someone needs to,GROW A PAIR!
This is becoming very juvenile :)
Bad case of Infant-ism?

Yes, that's a bug. Will fix now. Thanks for telling me.

Are you sure you don't mean charts...
I have an alternative take. I think this is what the whole internet would look like if people were allowed to be themselves. All that polished PC poo on other sites is the result of massive, heavy-handed editing and banning. If you want to live in la-la land go anywhere else. If you want reality, in all it's fucked up glory, come here.
It'd be fun to see who has done the most banning
Banning is a good thing. It prevents threads from devolving into poo throwing. PatNet needs more of its users to ban things.
My best guess, 3 more months and pat.net will effectively be 2 separate echo chamber'd forums.
I beat you to the prediction of PatNet being partitioned.
Of course, it will split PatNet into two communities, one being a right-wing masturbation fest, and the other being everybody else, but that's a good thing.
However, you are wrong about there being two echo chambers. There will only be one, the right wing partition. Both sides are not the same. It's the right wing versus everyone else. It's crazy versus sane. This reflects the difference between the two major parties. The Republicans are batshit crazy assholes. The Democrats are everyone else, and usually don't agree on anything but the Republicans being batshit crazy assholes. PatNet is a microcosm of the United States.
My best guess, 3 more months and pat.net will effectively be 2 separate echo chamber'd forums. It'd be fun to see who has done the most banning, and also who has been banned the most. Pat, can we see this info, or no?
