But in general, I'm not amused by him enough to warrant him not getting banned on general principle

The last time Bane was here (recently), I banned all of his 'extra' screen names (as I told him I would) as soon as he registered them, and allowed him to carry on with his original one...He kept all of his silliness (and we contributed to it on a grand scale) to TWO threads...He made NO racist, pornographic, homophobic, or in any way 'inciteful' posts...He was NOT banned at that time...He apparently just got bored/frustrated with the fact that we accepted him, no one was getting upset, we were having fun with him, he was NOT getting banned, and no one really gave a shit...So, he just left on his own without even a 'goodbye'...

Apparently, he was NOT getting what he came here for...

Sometimes his posts are sensible and i enjoyed reading them then other times
he just gets too high on his own odor and his posts go randomly stupid.
I suppose that could be said for alot of us .
What i can't understand is...why is everybody so infatuated with the guy?
So many threads have been started up over him..including this one..why??
As for members leaving because of the shit they read from him...nah!!
Those leaving members can blame who ever the hell they like..if its not him ..it will be somebody else who gets the finger pointed at.

The honest fact is..members don't like him
plain and simple...one of us could post the same crap and get hilarious replies
in return.. :confused:

Honestly, I think the person in question is a really annoying person.
There is such a thing as too much, and I haven't been coming around as often because the stupid comments get really old.
Of course, if you responded to everything that pisses you off online, you would stay annoyed.;)

They bore the shit out of me.At least give us the decency to try to be witty or a little creative.This recent batch of troll is just tiresome. And why the fuck people keep responding [ i.e ocdave] to this shit is beyond me.If you see an idiotic post [not including mine] just let it go.....don't respond...the fool will get bored and move on.




my 2 cents

Do you guys have fun playing with our resident idiot? I personally found Bane to be more funny (in a stupid kinda way) than irritating. Of course, I can remember Bane in his 'normal' mode, where he was actually a pretty okay dude, he's a hardcore metalhead would ya believe it? But, this loadernob guy is just too overthetop retarded.


Do you read all of his threads and posts just to see 'what he's doing now' ?...how everyone else is responding to him?...or whether or not the mods are going to do anything about him?


Does he give you guys something to do/read when the forum gets slow?


Do these types of 'episodes' help to keep the forum 'alive and bustling' at times when there doesn't seem to be much else to do here?


After he is banned and gone for a little bit...Do you find yourself wishing you could have caught his last posts, or his responses to YOUR posts?...Does it seem more 'boring' here when everything is calm?


OR...Do you prefer a 'calmer' more 'intellectual' atmosphere, with serious discussion and a little goofing off and ribbing between the regulars, and even new members as long as there is at least a modicum of intelligence or wit behind it?


Could it be a mixture of all of these?


Please let me know...If you're afraid that someone may react negatively to your true feelings on this subject and you would rather avoid the 'drama' that could go along with it...Just send me a PM...Okay?

I honestly like having somebody around that I can take off ignore an lay into for being such a fool sometimes. It's kind of a funny thing because he enjoys illiciting a reaction from us and sometimes I enjoy all the jokes at his expense.

I'll never understand the actions of these people. Does seeing other people annoyed by them make them happy or is it the fact that any attention they get it "good attention"?

Roderick Usher 01-21-2007 07:42 PM

I find it the kind of annoyance that keeps me from wanting to log on. I don't need this kind of bullshit in any aspect of my life.

So I simply "ignore" and move on. This will, hopefully be the last bit of energy of any kind which I spend on this subject.

GetrDone 01-21-2007 07:43 PM

In keeping my post short and sweet, I don't like him, ban away.

They have a sad life to begin with, and they piss people off to feel powerful. At the end of the day when they tuck themselves in, that's their big achievement...so, ya gotta realize these are pretty miserable people in the first place. I've known quite a few people like this in "real life"...known who they are and how they got that way, more or less...and for the most part, people don't turn out this way by accident at all. 99% of them have had extremely abrasive, abusive childhood experiences.

neverending 01-21-2007 08:00 PM

I don't like trolls, and I learned long ago that the best way to get rid of them is to never ever acknowledge them in any way. It's difficult to get an entire community to do that. Some are the type that enjoy stirring things up. They are almost as annoying as trolls to me.

I just stay out of threads that I have no interest in.
