I know we all get into it on this board, but I believe there is an underpinning of respect in all our posts. Now that the election is approaching nerves are getting frayed, and people's tempers are short and everyone thinks their candidate is the answer. However, IMHO, there is one poster that is going above and beyond in the D&D and bringing it down below it's already strained standards. I may not agree with everything people post, and may even disagree vehemetly in some cases, but Rocketanalyist seems to go out of his way to troll. I have personally asked him/her to stop, but sadly to no avail. So, I am posting this thread in the hopes that he/she will see how annoying it is to post like that. So, liberals and conservatives alike.....would you give rocketsanalyist a time out? I would give him/her a timeout just to let him/her realize how disruptive it is..... DD
I am hoping that he/she can see that it is not just conservatives that are annoyed with his/her posting style but that it is annoying to the rest of us too, and not helpful. I could be completely wrong, and people don't agree in which case the answer will be "no" to the question above..... And the fact that this place is overwhelmingly liberal...if it goes down as a "yes" he/she will see that people that think like him are also annoyed and he/she should tone it down. DD
When you find yourself the lone ranger in a gang fight you tend to thrash about wildly. (Yea! that's one vote to allow youth to be impetuous)
If the liberals, progressives and/or Obama supporters here don't complain when a fellow lefty misbehaves, we don't have any business complaining about the bassos or the Chicken Georges. I voted yes. He's out of control and he needs to take a deep breath and come back when he's calmed down.
this isnt necessary Dak you damn well know it Its one thing for the Crew to ask, but dont you think it a might bit presumptuous for us to make the call?
Woah....hold up there Earl Anthony... This is not for the crew at all.....if that is what you are reading into this...then you are misunderstanding the intent. I am HOPING that rocketsanalyist gets the message by seeing the vote, and the crew does not have to be bothered. That is my point. A little self policing..... DD
You just served up a huge steaming plate of attention for that troll by creating a thread entirely about him... I would vote permanent ban, if that were an option
I voted no. He needs to calm down, but I think when he gets a warm glass of milk, a good burping, and a nice long nap he'll be fine. I hate to see people get banned, suspended, etc.
I know what your point is. I also know from what I have just read in that other thread that this thread will do nothing but inflate that guys already massively huge victim's mentality
Think of it this way, with a time out he can contemplate his true quandry.... "Is Tmac a Point forward?" I believe that he was not getting the message that several of us were giving him...WITHOUT calling names....and that sometimes a good pan upside the head gets your attention. You disagree....and would not go about it like this....noted....but aren't you sort of doing the same thing as me by coming in and self policing? HMMMMMM??? DD
DaDa your one-man Palin smear factory campaign is about as annoying. This forum will only get worse over the next couple of months.
Hmmmm, interesting...I don't like her....her politics scare me, and I think she is horrible for the country, but if enough people that I respect asked me to stop, I would listen..... Yep, sadly I agree. DD
Well feel free to start a poll about that then sir....in the meantime stick to the topic at hand and stop derailing my thread DD
