      Dear staff members

      Thank you for finally banning philosopher.

      Oral sex to whoever issued the ban.

      Hopefully it's a permaban.

      If not. I'll cry.

      What for?.... Not that I care...

      I wouldn't usually say this, but hopefully it's permanent...

      Especially after writing this stuff on what was meant to be a funny thread... Annoying

      I posted back, but this is probably why I didn't get a reply...

      I'm slightly embarrassed to say this, but that's a relief. His way of writing was near impossible to decipher.

      I wouldn't have minded him if only he could communicate.

      He was just a prick who thinks he's awesome. Often makes it out to be that he's smart and shit.
      Makes a big deal out of small shit.
      He's also an idiot. As in. He isn't very smart.

      He either has a mental problem or he's a troll.

      I'm gonna have to disagree with some of you. He actually made a few good points every now and again, even the ones I didn't agree with. Also, he wasn't impossible to understand; it just required slightly more work to grasp the meaning behind his posts than is ideal. I mean, yeah, your reading comp had to be fairly high to wade through it all, but I would've expected most members of this board to be proficient in that regard.

      Still, his blatant personal attacks on other members were totally uncalled for.

      Yea, the thing that pissed me off most was how insulting he was, and how he sees himself as a god.

      I understood nearly all his posts.. But he's posts were, most of the time, quite irrelevant and didn't actually make sense when you took time to read them...

      He mentioned Logic and grammar in threads where people were just trying to ask a question... He was obviously trying to assert a higher sense of authority... Maybe if at least in some of his posts he used common sense instead of looking at the thread with a simple minded point of view... But he didn't, that was the problem...

      Lol, we've been successfully trolled.

      Oh well. I'm famous for being good troll feed. I'll continue to do so.

      Meh, he wasn't all that bad. Kind of annoying at times.
      Give me the night!
      Let me be me for one last time!

      Nothing you've said contradicts my original statement in any way. XP

      Furthermore, I wouldn't call his point of view simple minded so much as narrow minded. After all, he did manage to successfully deal with more advanced concepts every one and awhile.

      That wasn't my intention...

      Dealing with advanced concepts isn't the same as correctly dealing with those concepts... I think it was blatant that he was trying to display his "intellect".. And tbh, I'm sure most people found it quite annoying..

      Nonetheless, that was his problem.. I still don't understand how that would lead to him being banned... (If that was the reason, that is)

      He was probably banned for insulting people. I dunno.

      But yea, he was rather insulting to lots of folk.


      Also, by the way, he has no common sense.

      At all.

      You guys realize that it's probably only temporary, right? Permabans are not typically issued for a first offense. I'm sure he'll be thrilled to read this thread when he gets back, though.

      And? He might leave, stop being a smart ass, or be such a smart ass that he gets permaban, either way problem solved!

      I dunno guys. He wasn't so bad. Maybe his anger stemmed from frustration at himself for being incapable of communicating with text. Or maybe he's pissed off at life for having four broken marriages (or however many he said it was). Even though he was annoying at times, if he could communicate more clearly, I think he would have added an interesting viewpoint to some of the discussions.

      I see what you mean. But since he was unable to communicate more clearly, it didn't make much of a difference to me; I was only on the receiving end and couldn't do much to change his actions.

      I set him to ignore after I went off on him, and earned a respectable warning from the admins
