    I wish to make a formal complaint about Ophiolite. I believe his behavior violates the posting guidelines of this site. These are pretty severe violations, so I need to get the opinion of the administrators on this. Perhaps some sort of punishment is warranted to make it clear that this sort of thing won't be tolerated. Hopefully you don't actually condone Ophiolite's behavior. I believe it reflects very badly on this site.

    Here is a recent exchange from the Apocalypse Soon thread. It contains clear examples of personal attacks, name calling, use of obscene language, and blatant trolling.

    Thank you for your attention to this unfortunate matter.

    calling someone a "lying bastard" is definitely against forum rules.

    Yeah, I thought it probably was. So are most of these beauties collected from the thread:

    Ophiolite seems quite aware he is violating site posting rules:

    Yet in his very next sentence he says:

    Ophiolite is actually proud of himself and his level of self restraint!

    He knows he is breaking the rules, but he thinks he is justified:

    In fact, he is proud to violate the rules that apply to everyone else, and actually views it as a civic duty.

    He is a troll who thinks he is performing a public service!

    Ophiolite thinks the following post is appropriate and on topic:

    And here he admits that he has a vendetta against me across multiple discussion forums:

    It feels like I am being stalked.

    So he claims to be a geologist? I guess that accounts for the name "Ophiolite".

    What sort of punishment do you think he should get for his self confessed violations of site posting guidelines?

    So you don't think this is a big deal at all? Are you and Ophiolite friends?

    Seriously, you are a valued senior member. Are you saying that you condone and endorse Ophiolite's flagrant violations of site rules and regular abuse of other members? I'm just trying to understand how things work around here.

    no.
    yes. no. yes. no. yes. no. yes. no. yes. no. yes. no.
    thank you.
    my honest opinion?
    it's your own fault ophiolite dumps on you.
    whether it "violates forum rules" is for the mods to determine.
    you are a dweeb until you pass the test.
    what test?
    dunno, it just has to happen i guess.

    Heppeh...thats brings back old memories.

    Ophiolite is obviously abusing Futilist, but the question is whether he has enough friends in high places to let him get away with it...just like Gustav did, until he got uncontrollable.

    And a "yes no yes no yes no..." etc as an answer that is yet another way of toying with his victim, an enjoyment of the abuse. So think not so hard who "his" dear friends are. Clearly one can tell them by the same qualities they share.

    i heard he founded whakkenhut inc. not too long ago.
    snake still has his million dollars though.
    yes, only because futilist lets him.
    if ophiolite gets reprimanded it will be his own fault, but that only applies under certain mods.
    frankly i feel it describes perfectly ophiolites and my relationship.
    i could possibly throw in the occasional love.
    how's that?

    I'm not letting him. This thread is about stopping him.

    Obviously he has amassed an army...what recruits have you gathered?

    Gee...only you, so far.

    Do you really think I need an army? I was just going to wait for an Administrator to take a look at the situation and make some sort of determination. It seems pretty cut and dried to me. Ophiolite has clearly crossed the line.

    The way I see it, the Admins have three possible choices:

    1. They could declare that Ophiolite has the special status to abuse anyone he wants, however he wants. Ophiolite is above the law.
    2. They could throw out the guidelines and let everyone say whatever the f**k they want to.
    3. They could just enforce the rules, and set a firm, clear example of what happens when you break them.

    We'll just have to wait and see.

    It's generally more appropriate to hit the "report" button on posts that breach the site rules.

    I'll look into this matter.

    In the meantime, this looks like an attack thread that can probably only descend to being a flame war, so I'm closing it.

    On the basis of the extensive evidence presented above, I have banned Ophiolite from sciforums for 3 days (for repeated flaming).

    Let's hope this ends here.
