Should f0rqu3 stop spamming?

This is for real, who thinks eh should stop spamming useless crap. I realize this is probably already flame bait, but whatever.

f0rqu3 post of your posts don't even make sense, or they are one word.

<DEFINE>
As a noun, an irrelevant message (frequently commercial advertising) cross-posted to many public fora (eg.: Usenet groups, A FORUM) simultaneously. As a verb, the act of posting such spam. The term is derived, obscurely, from a popular Monty Python comedy sketch that celebrates the pleasures of consuming a certain tinned meat product.

I also realize that this will probably make the child spam more sinc eI am giving him attention which everyone has stopped giving him/her , but maybe if he/she sees a poll, they will stop.

Very similar to the PM I was considering sending him, only mine would've been laced with profanity.   :)

Great job, Flux.

Well, any chance of getting him banned when you offered to ban him.
I know places where you would get banned for that, but I guess timbos laxness also covers impersonating forum admins :(

Also, hypocrisy!

He's just lava with a bit more spam. He isn't doing anything that is really breaking the rules and on occasion really helps people. Many people spam way more %-wise and we let them stay.

Lets do a public vote, Fluxflashor vs f0rqu3
My guess is f0rqu3 would win by a mile.
esp if you weight votes by contributions...

Why bother, everyone knows Timbo is the almighty one. Anyone else just gets laughed at anyway.

No, this won't be turned into a flamewar or popularity contest.

... popularity contest.


That was the point.  f0rqu3 would win by a mile.
But we all know that, so there's no need for the vote :)

actually f0rqu3 is quite knowledgeable

every forum needs a class clown
it's funny how it's cute when ur pals do it
but not when other ppl do
a little spam is good for you

He's been a lot of people.  I don't have as much of a problem with his current account "F0rqu3," it's just that I despised some of his older ones with a passion.  (Incidentally, they were banned, so I fail to see why Survivor <Moderator> of all people would back him up.)

Whatev.  As long as he doesn't get too out of hand (again) I'm cool with him.  I've always been an advocator of giving people a second chance anyway.

Lava is rude at times yet has become a moderator himself because he helps people at times.
While forq by no means is the most balanced he is arguably an experienced coder who helps people out on occasion in that area. That means he has 1-up on someone who just spams or gives his opinion. It doesn't make him immune.

Which is why I included this paragraph at the end.  :)

Unless he (F0rqu3) makes any more personal attacks on myself or my clan, that was the last time I'll bother filing complaint against him.

I like you Survivor, you give people the benefit of the doubt.  8)

Yes, f0rqu3 shouldn't spam.. but to stop spamming, he would have to have started (which I haven't seen him do). The poll question is begging the question (petitio principii, logical meaning: "implicitly or explicitly assuming the conclusion in one of the premises"), and so I can't submit my vote.

His posts to my knowledge haven't been advertising anything nor have they been nonsensical. Most of the time, they seem to be informative, creative or simply light-hearted jest.

He has got into the tad 'discussion' (argument), but there's nothing wrong with that so long as he keeps it calm and sensible.

I gave him/her a PM actually, and I was replied with a big NO! The No pissed me off, hence the poll.

I have to agree with Flux. Yeah, yeah, bring on the fucking flames. Whatever. You were here when fork had the major trollfest. Are you ignoring that completely? I liked vcxzet, but fork's just retarted.
