Should Mike_6002 be banned?
It seems like a number of members believe he contributes nothing but spam; I am inclined to agree. While he does not flame or troll, the spam is rather excessive. It is my belief that a brief, three or four day ban would be beneficial and help get the message across to him.

He seems to be really immature, he just doesn't shut up, and I hate Garble.
Maybe a brief ban will knock some sense into him and he'll act like an adult.

I was sick of him when he passed 150. I'm not sure it rates a ban, yet anyway, but something should be done about his post count at the very least

You can say the same about every other super-poster on this board. If he is to be banned, he should be banned for something other than having a huge postcount perday.Sea Skimmer wrote:I was sick of him when he passed 150.

I could use my ADHD as an excuse to wig out, but I don't. Why?Stormbringer wrote:I don't give a damn, he's been warned and still keeps spamming. Ban his ass for good.Shinova wrote:He has Asperger's. Don't be so hard on him.
Because I don't use my disability as a crutch or an excuse.

If you really want to ban him, ban chuckG, and those other few guys whose names I cannot recall.
I, however, say we just leave him alone. I myself have acted like a total idiot in my early days of message board surfing. He'll grow up in time....And hope he gets over that Asperger's.
Edit: Forget the Asperger's.

You may have been, but I've lost count of the times I've had to talk to him and he doesn't listen. He does care that he's a worthless waste of bandwidh, he just does it anyway.Shinova wrote:If you really want to ban him, ban chuckG, and those other few guys whose names I cannot recall.

Sort of like Strowbridge's comments for me to blow my brains out, huh?Spanky The Dolphin wrote:That is totally uncalled for, Sheppard.

Depends if you attacked him first.

Perhaps you could do something to his account so that he can only post once per...let's say...five minutes or something.
That way we can wean him into putting more content into each post he makes.

Now that's a good idea. Otherwise, ban his sorry ass.Shinova wrote:Stormbringer wrote:You may have been I've lost count of the times I've had to talk to him and he doesn't listen.

Everyone does this shit. Look at most of the threads involving story or link. 90% of the posts are emticons or LOL or ROFLAMO or stupid shit like that. If you ban him for that you ban most of the major posters here.Spanky The Dolphin wrote:What about the fact that he's an annoying idiot, and a lot of his posts consist of either "me too!" or "LOL" stuff?

In those context's is acceptable. However he does it for every fucking thread, and has created dozens of his own which are 95% shit.Mr. B wrote:Everyone does this shit.
