ZFR: I don't visit here as often, partly due to the state of the forums and partly due to being more busy in real life, so I didn't notice this thread earlier. It seems to have already gone downhill, but since some of the discussions in the first few pages touch upon something that has made these forums less appealing to me, here are my 2 cents:
I'm not a huge fan of rtcvb, but:
*(a) He keeps all his inforwars topics in one thread only.
*(b) He makes normal helpful posts in serious/technical threads.
On the other hand, there seem to be lately an increasing number of people who
*(a) Regularly make new threads on silly topics.
*(b) Make the same type of silly posts in serious/technical threads.
I don't see his thread, subject matter aside, any different with regards to being spam from, say, the "I let's play sierra games so you don't have to" thread (of which I'm a huge fan and follow when time permits).
On the other hand, take an example of fortune_p_dawg (I don't mean to single him out, but it is the first example off the top of my head). I'd really appreciate it if he takes a leaf out of rtcvb's book and starts a "fortune_p_dawg's musings" thread rather than creating a new topic every time. In my opinion, they are definitely much closer to the spam definition than rtcvb's thread. And please cut down on that style when replying in a seroius thread. Unlike whole threads, ignoring individual posts is more difficult, and too many of these silly posts in a thread can be very distracting and break the conversation flow.
I'm really not against the silly threads in these forums. God knows, I've created and taken part in many of them myself, but you should know when to draw the line. There is a point when it stops being cute and becomes plain annoying.
Again, I don't really mean to single anyone out here. This is just my opinion.
ZFR: It's like every time I log in everyone uses new avatars. Mistook you for bler.
Nice Christmas avatars by the way.
rtcvb is becoming a serious nuisance that I personally think the blues will need to start addressing soon. And I hope so because personally I am getting sick of it.
He is in fact amongst the worst kind of poster on these forums in that he is trying to use the low moderation to inflict his fucked up ideas and beliefs on the community- mind you that these ideas and beliefs are not even his own- they are simply cut and paste jobs.
There is not one single, NOT ONE SINGLE word in his dump posts that has come from his own mouth.
You cannot rationalise with such types of individual, they have gone beyond all reasoning.
I realise that some will cry for free speech and the damage it will cause if he is silenced. I say this, you will not be silencing anything other than one mans links to somebody else's opinion- anyone can get a hold of this shit directly from Infowars if they so choose. Why should it be tolerated here? It is moral, religious and political opinions, many of which are extreme and unsubstantiated, force fed on this community. I will now go as far as to say that I am becoming offended by rtcvb.
