    Default How much glockspam should be tolerated?

    Half the "guy's" posts contain nothing but the peeing monkey. He constantly derails topics with his vulgar and/or homosexual tendencies. Get rid of this turd before he can stink up the place any further. Some have already left because of him, so how much more do people need to be subjected to?
    If you're worth less than $5 million and you vote for McCain, you're a loser.

    RSR and NM post twice as much.

    In more than one thread I have seen people use the line, "Some have already left because of him..." This has been used in reference to other members by others, and you have now made this claim in regards to glockmail.

    I have a request of management, or those in the "know," would you please provide a list of members who have abandoned the board because of the actions of a couple other members? Seriously. This seems to be a popular refrain, "Some have already left because of him," I'd like to see evidence of this.

    The idea that one anonymous person could, with the written word or animated icon, drive another anonymous person from a message board is amazing to me. How sensitive must one be to allow people they have never met to affect them in such a way?

    I'm pretty sure there is an ignore feature with this board, does it not work for some?

    For crying out loud, if someone bugs you that much, don't interact with them, ignore their posts, move on. Don't run away, that is simply childish.

    As for banning, I always have and always will be against it. Again, don't take the bait, ignore it. Move on. Just don't respond to a member's post if you don't like them, make them irrelevant to you.

    Grow up people, act like the adults we all assume you are.

    Nobody knows why people leave the board. Nobody maintains a list.

    I kind of figured that. I guess they must all be PM-ing the members who use that glorious, unprovable phrase.

    I think you're right-on target with that figuring, Mick.

    How much PMing is going on behind the scenes? I do it rarely. Also, I don't mind Glock. Atleast his arguments are semi-lucid. RSR and NM are intolerable.

    Every board needs a glockmail poster. How hard is it to just skip past the post?
    A chance for a new beginning, like a dawn of reconciliation.

    No evidence of this whatsoever. It's a typical ploy to garner support, and make the person being named seem more undesirable and a detriment to the board.

    No members that I know of are leaving because of other members. It's been said by a few but there's just no truth to it. And there wouldn't be much we can do to prevent someone from leaving over not liking someone anyway, as we certainly aren't going to start banning people because they aren't liked.

    Yeah, I've never been into behind-the-back snicker doodling. Most anything I've got to say will be said out in public on the board.

    Everytime I leave it's because of Jim. Lets ban him.

    How is not interacting with someone different from running away?
