I have no problem with the guy other than his bumping of posts with absolutely no purpose. I could understand if it was a revelation to help the OP but clearly it isn't. His post count has rocketed over the last few days due to these entirely pointless posts, some of which even found there way into the anope forum and in reality show absolutely no understanding of the topics.

Examples;

So many "me too" posts.

I checked at one point yesterday afternoon to find that almost EVERY forum on here had a last post from him.

Sorry if i'm being nasty or prohibiting freedom of speech etc, but it is just plain annoying.

Thanks.

Chaz

You're like a flamer, but 10 times worse.

Either way, I have the same thoughts as chaz. I wanted to say something in one of the threads, because I kept seeing "NoSmile" on every single category, but decided to just leave it...

but yeah, bumping threads like that is annoying... especially old ones

LETS LOCK IT.

Lets not? Smile - This thread is about speaking minds and more experienced members voicing their opinions.

If you don't like it, don't read it. And if you say I should take some of my own medicine, thats fine, but I don't have one of these threads in every single forum, he does.

Enough said.

Chaz, negativity just begets further negativity. If he's here strictly to make an arse of himself, he will accomplish that of his own merit, and be banned from the boards by the administration without anyone having to point out how much of an arse he is.

Yes, I think his posts are rather silly, but I also think that responding in this manner to his posts is also rather childish.

Childish would have been dropping to his level and bumping the posts he's bumping so that my name was on the last post rather than his, and inhibiting a circle of him and me doing it.

Suggestions / Comments being the forum title, my post being a suggestion, seems rather logical to put it here. Perhaps I should have just not bothered but someone else would have done it, or started to retaliate and maybe the member is a newbie who isn't aware of the forum netiquette and just needed a gentle word from a member of staff, IE, not me.

I however, digress.

Firstly, learn how to behave on an Internet forum. Making posts which contain 2 words is annoying, sure, I'll give you that one - however, making posts which effectively amounts to online bullying is equally as annoying. Singling people out, inciting other people to make comments towards them, etc. is just nasty.

Could you please read this entire thread, and realise you are complaining about someone's posting habits, and then telling other people that if they don't like YOUR posting habits, they should just ignore it. That's called hypocrisy.

I know how irritating people are when they post pointless things just to raise their post count. It's frustrating. I deal with it all the time. However, if you want something done about it then private message any moderator or administrator. Don't make a big public broo-ha-ha out of it. Even worse is how the guy apologised (I don't know if they've continued to post stupid posts after apologising), and people are STILL posting nasty comments!

You picked your quote well.

"If you don't like it, don't read it" ... I was applying that for this single thread, not twenty or so threads scattered all over the boards. It's easy enough to "ignore" my single thread than several present in each section.

As I said, I digress, the guy apologised, I didn't stoop to calling him names, and I wasn't making a public display, I was looking for opinions and maybe hoped the OP would read and acknowledge my opinion, not start an out and out flame war.

Anyway, I think its time this one is put to bed.
