When I was submitting this paper to arXiv
>http://vixra.org/abs/1712.0598
>The General Relevance of the Modified Cosmological Model
I got their latex error message. It said the problem was most likely an incorrect figure file name. It didnt say, "Make sure to compile it locally until youre sure its working bc we will ban you if you compile it on our end too much." Usually one would check the figures first, but I had like 100 figures, and I did not want to check 100 files. Usually arXiv papers have many less than 100 figures

I wanted to read the arXiv latex error log before I started manually checking the capitalization of 100 .figures. I compiled it online several times as I browsed the log. I found a problem with a file name. I recompiled and it gave me the next error file name, and bc I had 100 figures, I found them by recompiling on the website. Then it uploaded and compiled. Then arXiv banned me, idk if had to do with me using their compiler instead of my local compiler. If it did, and they had no warning about not doing that, then they should be killed

This is a well known masochism meme in physics. I was a physics PhD student and the main physics professor there, Eric Murray, was a bastard about misleading the students away from what they were really getting at. I'd witness the interaction where the student would ask something, and I would see exactly what they meant, but Murray reveled greatly in leading them away from their real inquiry, then questioning them about something else altogether, and then saying, "Well? If you don't even know that I can see why you don't know other thing

I don't know why arXiv banned me, the compiler has been on my mind.
If arXiv has a secret compiler limit that they do not advertise in the latex error help notifications then that would be like Eric leading me away from the idea that I better be careful to check everything locally because if I use their server too much then I will fall into the dungeon through the trap door

arXiv doesn't do peer review but they do peer banning, peer censcorship, and peer fuckery.

Pic related, I uploaded to viXra instead and you can see the arXiv submission stamp. This submission is [math]easily[/math] better than 50% of arXiv submissions but the peer review nazis didn't like the name on the manuscript

After I was only exposed to the basics of physics in college I was absolutely to absolutely stomp all the competiton when it comes to solving the most important problems. I bet if I am ever unbanned from academia and have the oportunity to take some graduate level classes, during my 5yrs in PhD program Georgia Tech never offered a QFT or GR course even, I bet I will similarly stomp the competition when it comes to solving the problems that are better handled on computers.
