Yep, I don't think I've seen one person make so many people so upset though. I guess I'm a little less upset because like I said, at first he was fun to rip apart. When that lost the appeal I ignored. If I saw a topic from said person or persons I just didn't click on it. Things will sort themselves out, to talk about the board shutting down over one dick is amazing to me though, I just don't get the concept of deciding that rather than not read bad topics, just stop coming all together. Hell, it was mostly relegated to one or two sections of the forum anyway.

There was one, but then i had to change hosts for my site, and that was the end of it.

Iīm not into all the group trashing. When the flaming starts i usually feel sorry for the poor victim, no matter how weird or irritating he may be.

I just ignore him.

Oh but you got it...That was exactly my point...I don't understand why they're here either...I can only imagine that it's to hang out with us...As they seem to have no interest in 'horror'...But, I have no idea WHY they chose us or what brought them here in the first place...It seems you would normally end up some place where you have some sort of interest...:confused:

But i donīt have him, or anyone else for that matter, on my ignore list.

I have no problem ignoring people without using the "ignore" function. Itīs the easiest thing in the world.

do you not think the arguement about ....how this kind of bullshit presents HDC to anyone thinking of joining .....has any merit ???

I already asked this question a while ago

http://www.horror.com/forum/showthre...t=26868&page=5

it would seem that horror is not only uniterested in the forums but doesn't seem to care about whether 'would be users' get a good impression of the site or not

illdojo 01-22-2007 01:51 PM

I'm still a NOOB here.... but Renob was such a fucktard. It was fun to watch you guys make fun of him. :)
This is a killer forum. :D Lots of cool people who know what their talking about. ;)

Angra 01-22-2007 01:52 PM

Why sure.

But as i see it, the pure retards comes and goes. The horror lovers comes and stays.

No reason to FREAK OUT!!

this is so true.
I remember when i joined..it was amidst of contraversy of some sort..
that never stopped me and others who joined directly after.
Fact of the matter is assholes or not..if your comfortable with a forum
you will join and stay ..like a wedding vow sort of.
If you have a shitty day ..just stay away for a day or so and relax/take a chill pill..then come back..
we all do this anyway :p

That's easy. The resident idiot is on my ignore list, and I have a strong preference for the "calmer more intellectual atmosphere" you describe. Life is too short to be wasted on idiots.

You don't really...it's not as though he won't make some kind've appearance again.
I wish I had something NEW to contribute to this thread...but really it's all been said. Mods need to stop worrying about their judgement calls being questioned by some of the folks in here. If you have that little faith in your level headedness and decision making ability on issues THIS obvious, then yknow what? quit.
That's all.

This isn't a dictatorship...EVERYONE'S opinion matters...Not just my own...Actually...My OWN doesn't really matter much at all...I just add it to the majority

I appreciate everyone expressing their honest opinion here :)

Phalanx 01-23-2007 04:57 PM

To start, I wasn't referring to you solely...just thought I'd throw that in...but I will say that you HAVE made it known that you would be effected by "what people might say". Think about it...the people that would leap to the defense of this person in particular would really more than likely be doing so just to challenge you, not even fully behind the issue themselves.
I would say that the majority of the 'good' posters up in here would be absolutely behind you on this one...this very thread shows as much.
Sure, there's people that say it doesn't really bother them, they ignore him...whatever. Everyone can do that, for sure. But yknow - it's all of us having to do so, being forced to take a passive stance to what is an ongoing problem that brings down the quality of this place, it really does.
I've said it before many times, so, I'll just say to refer back to my "bullshit avalanche" theory. It happens in multiple threads, threads and posts get made about it = MORE avalanche. Like urg says, threads get killed, and good ones get pushed back by stupid shit, then people just stop bothering to post good threads, or even post in their own threads which have been fucked up by this idiot.
However, I want to point out that where I understand your perspective with wanting your decisions to be met with overall approval, I DID say
on issues THIS obvious
You know it, I know it....the majority up in here have had a problem with this guy, in all of his names. I really don't know how many people need to point this out. A ban is a ban...like you say, it's not as though they can't come back. When they DO, if they change, sure let them hang around...if they don't, fuck them off again. It's not hard. It's not some big thing or the act of a dictator, you're just giving the place a chance to shed some stupidity for a while.
My point is - lets assume you (and the other mods) have been chosen for your moderation position because you've proven to be relevant posters with good insights, you're levelheaded, you all contribute, and you're not a bunch of stupid dicks. I think most would agree, no?
So, you're here to represent us, that was the initial basis for the decision...or something in that general ballpark?
So do it, and stop letting the "what ifs" get to you, because they only stop you from doing what you're supposed to here, which is IMO to uphold the integrity of this place, and keep the posters that make this place GOOD coming back to do so.
Fuck all those that'll give you shit, they're just part of the problem IMO...Although on this matter I don't think it'll be all that many anyways.

When someone is a real whacko jerk, I can't say I object when they get banned.

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 used to love fucking around with wufongtan. Is that dude still around here somewhere? Under a different name perhaps?
