    Where are all those quotes that are posted all over the place coming from anyway? Am I missing them?

    Straight faced I'm afraid. Some activism is understandable, however there are some that are basically lobbyists of certain Anarchist websites that go out of there way to mess up other sites on the internet by infiltrating communities and souring their milk.

    I am for the most part a nice guy, I've pretty much allowed to people to have their freedoms and I realise that to some it's actually a very bad idea. Some people you can bring out the best in by granting them amnesty, others however really don't care for such 'charity' and will and often do blow it back in peoples faces. Those people are on my shiznit list, class this as their only warning to shape up or ship out.

    But many members, including the mods, are pushing an agenda. Abu was simply a little more vocal.

    Did you see Abu post on any other subjects? Did you not notice that every post he made was about his previous posts like an advertising campaign?

    Abu wasn't just Vocal, he was and is a protagonist, he's only been tempbanned for 1 whole day and I'm sure on his return he will prove to be exactly what he is. If people want to be protagonists there are specific Forums/Communities entirely made up of likeminded people out there, go preach to them.

    One other point about Abu, It was his 'Threats' made about "If you do not succumb to allowing my post, I'll report you to the forums service provider" (not said in these exact words)

    If you want to get up the nose of people, by all means threaten the community they are trying to protect.

    Agendas are like accents. People often dont know they have one.

    spuriousmonkey is fueling the fire of reformist movement and some seem to follow him.

    ^ I most certainly can't call that reform. More like the frolicking Three Little Pigs.

    why are you on a campaign to troll me, flame me, and make me use nasty words?

    And why is it tolerated?

    Because if there are two spectacles people enjoy, they're divas and parades. Two and two, meet four.

    I enjoy the circus because clowns scare me.

    What do you think they feel when they see you? Ever consider their points

    of view and why they are clowns with makeup covering their true feelings?

    They have makeup on so that people can't see their scaly skin.

    Or they can't see the tears in their eyes or the sadness on their faces.

    My thing with clowns is sadness. I remember Judy Collins on the Muppet Show singing "Send in the Clowns", an eternally sad song no matter what the hell it's supposed to be about.

    And then there's an old Shel Silverstein poem, "Cloony the Clown". I can't stand it. I'm a sucker for a sad clown. Oh, wait. There aren't any Republicans around, right?

    when i first came here it was immediately apparent that....This forum was never designed for a bunch of nutty activists to attain dominance, the sooner they realise it the better. (stryder) ......there was some truth to this.

    of course, what constitutes nutty is amenable to a subjective interpretation but truth be told, we all know what that means in this context

    point here is, sci could tolerate a single spookz or two and indulge as a wacky mascot of some sorts.

    what transpired tho was wannabe n00bs. like minded, certainly not inferior but all had something in common. a lack of restraint, a sense of proportion and where the line should be drawn.

    each individual should determine this for themselves. suggestions can be entertained and considered, from admin and member alike tho we are all ignorant to some degree or another about the nature of this little community on this internet

    the wellbeing of the community is paramount
    an accommodation and flexibility is thus required from the individual
    from my viewpoint. biased as it may be, more so from the mod team than us

    kindly hop to it cos time is running out

    furthermore if i read the community mood correctly, there is an individual, dragon causing a lot of aggravation. since he is still at it (see post in thread) i presume nothing has been done

    so here is what i-we want, preferably from you, plazma

    a public admonition directed at dragon in this thread.

    a "please stop" is adequate.

    a draqon is no better or no worse than a spookz

    you lack powers of discernment
    and you have no idea who you are dealing with
    ja
    wanna do so actual comparisons?
    random samplings to assess worth?

    fine
    the onus is on you
    it is your assertion
    do not disappoint sam
