Rascal · 05-10-2007, 10:38 AM

Can somebody please answer this?

From some of the comments that I've seen around here, there are other names that could be added to that list.

There aren't any rules, just guide lines.

Why should he be banned? This is a forum for a free exchange of ideas. If you can't handle what he has to say then put him on ignore or don't read his threads. The govt has been coddling people for so long people need some admin to ban something they don't like, rather then just being of strong mind and disregarding it. I just don't understand why people would want anyone banned unless they were disrupting the flow of informtion or the exchange of ideas.

Has he violated any rules set by TJ? Not that I know of. Is he ignore-worthy? Anyone can be ignored...

broncosteven · 05-10-2007, 02:00 PM

I made the mistake of starting one of these threads about Bob a few months after I started posting here. It will take a lot for me to back another again.

He likes to start **** but he never sees any issues to the end.

Ignore is a good option for idiots.

Garcia Bronco · 05-10-2007, 04:12 PM

I honestly think the thing to do is the next person that starts one of these threads...maybe we should consider giving that individual a break for a day.

Northman · 05-10-2007, 04:28 PM

Should he banned? Probably not, would i miss him if he was. Nope.

-Slap- · 05-10-2007, 09:09 PM

The only reason he's not banned is because he pretends to root for the Broncos when he's not busy trying to derail intelligent conversation in every thread. Its very difficult for Taco to ban a purported Bronco fan and relatively easy for him to give an offensive Raider fan like EyeSore the boot.

Actually its a lot more fun smacking Gonzo down and then watching him post 15 times that it doesn't matter to him.......

Old Dude · 05-10-2007, 11:26 PM

Who's Gonzo?

epicSocialism4tw · 05-11-2007, 12:14 AM

Put him on ignore if you dont like him.

You can ignore him if you want. Nobody forces us to read his takes or respond to a thread that he has derailed. If you want to discuss a topic that he has crapped upon, start a new thread.

Tredici · 05-11-2007, 12:49 AM

He's a total tool but so what? If he's banned we might all miss a relevent post he might make someday. It's a longshot, but we mustn't abandon hope.

I didn't realize you were such an optimist.

Tredici · 05-11-2007, 10:28 AM

meh. I don't think he should be banned for trolling. What deserves ban consideration is how bad he is at it. What happened to the posters who were good at it? Clever? Surprising - if viscious wit. Ah yes.... the good old days of the internet.

Now we're left with heavy handed hacks like Gonzo who could bore paint off the walls.

Rohirrim · 05-11-2007, 10:33 AM

Yeah. The art of trollery is in decline.

chrisp · 05-11-2007, 11:16 AM

Agreed - he should be condemned for being a vapid and unimaginative brand fo troll, but not banned. If thine poster offends thee, pluck him on ignore....

grow up ...

And the people have spoken!

Gonzo shall stay! YAAAYYY!! WHODAWHODWHODHAWHODHA
