RE: Message Automatically Removed

Brady Kelly

I'm, posting wise, a little more than regular here; despite my meagre profile, I have been around for about eight years, active for less, and active in SB much less, but this automatic, knee jerk, "Message Automatically Removed" bullshit is starting to piss me off. :mad: What was in the least bit offensive about [his] post with the Clinton kiss video, or [his] response to Mike? What have you people become? [Memories of treachery in '300'].

I'm thinking it's kinda nice. Even IF [he] didn't get censored right away, the majority of people here just want to insult him, so it saves me wading through a few pages of "you pea-brained non-non-partisan sow-bellied scab toothed ..." posts. BTW where'd zep go?

Basically your problem isn't with any of the regs, your problem is with the owner of the board who has seen fit to make it easy to remove a post (possibly only some people's posts). Chris also told Troy, straight out, that he didn't want any more of the link-spam that he'd been posting. Troy ignored what Chris said and has continued to post the same old same old - a link and then some cut and paste from the link. Perhaps 1:10 of his posts isn't like that but that really doesn't turn him into a whole new person. So Brady, if you're pissed off - take to the boss. Tell him he needs to run his site differently.

Mike - typical white guy. The USA does have universal healthcare, but you have to pay for it. D'oh. Thomas Mann - "Tolerance becomes a crime when applied to evil." The NYT - my leftist brochure. Calling an illegal alien an “undocumented immigrant” is like calling a drug dealer an “unlicensed pharmacist”. God doesn't believe in atheists, therefore they don't exist.

Regardless of whether that word "majority" properly fits, you're *not* supposed to admit the over-all truth you've expressed.

Ah! What a wonderful solution to the problem. :rolleyes:

LOL I wonder what would happen if I titled all my posts "Message Automatically Removed?" :laugh:

I think he's probably moving out of France - at least I hope that's it and not anything to do with his health.

It's his overall demeanor, the way he treats these forums and anyone who tries to talk to him, that means that whatever he posts, gets deleted. It's a vote on the individual, not the post content. Not saying I agree, but that's what it is.

Why don't you just stop posting, if you hold us in such contempt, or take an interest in the community, if that's what you'd prefer ?

Don't forget to mention that if people try to coax discussion out of Troy, he calls them names and sulks. If he posted links to things as a way to start discussion, that wouldn't be so bad ( at least, not in my book )

There are many paths, grasshopper, that lead to the discovery that SB is a better forum without him. Chris's choice is not Christian's, nor mine, but all of us have reached enlightment. :rose:

Which one of the links with no explanatory text or honest opinions was that? Can't speak for anyone else, but i'm tired of watching him treat this forum like his own personal link farm and then attack anyone who dares to criticize. When he wants to post his own views... and respect us enough to defend them instead of attacking us... i'll stop voting to remove his spam.

Christian Graus

Agreed, 200%. But instead, he's posting to say that "for we *all* know that I "attack" the kiddies of "the community" only in response to their own viciousness." What a pile of ignorant crap. I don't care if he agrees with me or not, but if he won't talk to us, if he just wants to insult and then delude himself, I say he needs to be treated the way he is being treated.

Naw, that would mean starting a new thread in order to attack him without providing opportunity for a response. The current removal of his banal posts is still giving him better than he's passed out.

Christian Graus

I didn't say to treat him the way he treats us, I said the way he's treated now, is what he deserves.
