STANG was recently banned from making posts in the forums after
creating the “God bless America !!!” thread.
His posting rights were due to return by 21st October 2005. However,
these have now been extended to 1 November 2005 and without any
explanation.
This was part of a message I received from him. We live in a world of
democracy and freedom ...[text shortened]... ill then contact RHP admin to try and resolve this issue.
Please vote YES to end STANG’s ban.
Aw HELL no!
This isn't his first ban. This won't be his last ban. The guy just won't learn. As far as I'm concerned, he can stay banned. He's had a nubmer of chances. He knows what he's doing and that it's not acceptable. He disrespects every intelligent thread he tosses his propaganda into. I myself have approached him on multiple occasions, and yet he continues to disrespect my conversations with his mindless poselytizing. His repeated and unabashed disrespect is completely unnecessary and unwarranted. I have never had an intelligent discussion with the man, despite my many attempts.
Quite frankly, I believe the man to be sick in the mental sense and would like to see him removed from the forums for his own good if not in the name of mental health for everyone else around here attempting to hold some semblance of a civilized and intelligent dialogue. I have no problem with someone expressing themselves, even if I disagree in the extreme with what they have to say. It is quite another thing to spam with a vengeance.
EDIT/P.S. Despite my inflammatory remarks, I have no problem with the guy personally or his political postion, etc. It is his behaviour I take issue with, and that alone.
Originally posted by flyUnityI have never seen anyone around here act like STANG does. That degree of spamming is just revolutionary. He doesnt just spam a little or post lots of opinions contrary to other people, he posts the same assinine list over and over in practically ever thread on the forum. I occasionally even agree with what he has to say, but he has a blatant disregard for the rules. It isn't what he says but how he tries to say it.
Do you think its right to want somone banned when in fact you yourself act in this manner?
I vote to keep him banned. The forum is much more interesting without annoying list posts every thread and 8 new threads created about how much he hates Bush with empty assertions. I don't like Bush either, but I don't have 10 threads on the forum devoted to that opinion and cluttering it up for everyone else.
I vote to keep STANG banned. If I could vote 2 or 3 times like some people, I would. Keep our community STANG free.
