Sciforums has *seriously* fallen apart

wes,
You must be kidding if you say he lowers the level of the debate. He's smarter than you, does that piss you off?
I can't say much regarding his intelligence level, other than that I generally don't regard exuberant racism as being an indicator of intelligence. But then, that's just my opinion. But as to lowering the level of debate, he has in the past, under another pseudonym, argued that grammar, spelling and basic logic are not worth studying or using when posting here. Now sciforums may not be a forum that carries any weight at all - but I do at least try to spell correctly when I post, and I rarely make illogical points wes. You may not agree with me, but I don't think I've ever asked someone to accept a fact without giving a source for it. (I may not post the supporting reference if I've cited it before, but I'll usually repost the reference if it was more than a few days ago and someone asks).

spookz,
you see do not feel that sein fein's position which i adopted is not a valid basis for a discussion?
You weren't adopting SF's postition, you were blatently trolling. From your post:
its actually funnier than shit and i appreciate you biting. for that i will now regale you with some jokes. enjoy
could a frikkin real englishman step up and bat? please? ranting at pseudo irishmen aint no fun!

the real issue is your ego has been injured by my flippant and irreverant attitude
My ego is still reasonably healthy spookz, but your comments were rather similar in nature (for me or anyone living in Ireland or the UK) to me coming out with some codswallop like "the US deserved the 9/11 attacks and I'm just sorry more people weren't killed". Firstly, you've no idea of the underlying history of the Northern Ireland situation, secondly, you've not lived through decades of the troubles and thirdly, you're commenting from a vantage point half-way around the world with no actual exposure to the problem. And you don't seem to want to educate yourself on the situation, which makes it even worse.

you really dont know shit. if you think you can waltz in here and mold this place to your liking with your hitlist...screw you again bitch
I'm not trying to mould anything. I've got a list of people whose posts struck me as assinine and I posted them here. As to the length of time and number of posts? Yup, you've got 4000+ posts. Me, this is my 875th post. And it comes an hour after I put some money where my mouth is and subscribed. You done that yet?
Or is this actually just your forum because you're "one of the net people"?
:rolleyes:
 
But then, that's just my opinion.

which is why you should be giving him the benefit of the doubt. i think he is cool. wes think he is cool. others dont. so what do we do now? divide sciforums into two camps and each call for the banning of the other? how did you get so frikkin intolerant?

But as to lowering the level of debate, he has in the past, under another pseudonym

your example sucks and you dont know shit! the bomber was not allah, you moron! allah has chastised the bomber many times for his "joo" shit! now if you cannot even identify who posters are, what makes you think you can call for their banning? it is like sending an innocent man to the gas chamber,you filthy fascist pig!

Now sciforums may not be a forum that carries any weight at all - but I do at least try to spell correctly when I post,

so you wanna ban em too? you filthy filthy fascist pig!

and I rarely make illogical points

that conclusion is not yours to make, you idiot!

You weren't adopting SF's postition, you were blatently trolling.

really? just cos i said so? you would not have recognised it if i did not do so? again do you think the subject popped outta my head? that i started it as an deliberate attempt to fuck with you? you do not reason well!

My ego is still reasonably healthy spookz, but your comments were rather similar in nature (for me or anyone living in Ireland or the UK) to me coming out with some codswallop like "the US deserved the 9/11 attacks and I'm just sorry more people weren't killed".

lemme try...ummm...got it! humorless dolt!

Firstly, you've no idea of the underlying history of the Northern Ireland situation,

educate me dammit. this was a perfect opportunity for you to fuck with sien fein's political platform but what do you do? whine about trolling!

I'm not trying to mould anything. I've got a list of people whose posts struck me as assinine and I posted them here.

who the hell raised your mean ass?

As to the length of time and number of posts? Yup, you've got 4000+ posts. Me, this is my 875th post.

again you read shit the wrong way!. i mentioned the post count so you could provide an find an example of my trolling. all it took was one fucking instance to call for my banning. porf can be an hardass sometimes but he is way more tolerant than your ass and this is his board!

And it comes an hour after I put some money where my mouth is and subscribed. You done that yet?

you stupid fuck. if i get shit for free i will never pay! that is the first rule of the internet and as an american, i feel proud to say that (if i get....!) btw, the timing of this subscription strikes me as curious. also in here we (members) do not make distinctions b/w paying and non-paying members! the measure of any given member is derived from their posts and not their bank balance! you are truly turning out to be a horrible human and that coming from me is saying quite a lot! frikking sneaky, insidious, backstabbing snake in the grass!

Or is this actually just your forum because you're "one of the net people"?
:rolleyes:


you roll your eyes at an assumption you make about me thru a quote by some other tard?? are you frikkin insane? why do you freaks think high post counts mean anything? is envy now seeping out of your words? this is not my forum "but it is my community"! (tiassa);)

I'm not trying to mould anything.

liar. you were try to get em banned!
 
Right, that's it. Handbags at ten paces at dawn I think spookz...
:rolleyes:

What was this thread's title again? Oh yes...
 
You weren't adopting SF's postition, (sparks)


Sinn Féin is an Irish Republican party. Our objective is to end British rule in Ireland. We seek national self-determination, the unity and independence of Ireland as a sovereign state.

Sinn Féin is committed to the transformation of Irish society and to a negotiated and democratic settlement. We know that peace is not simply the absence of violence. Real peace - a lasting peace - is based on democracy, justice, freedom and equality.

Sinn Féin has a vision that sees beyond the present conflict and beyond the present phase of our history. Our vision foresees the unity of the people of this island. Our vision is for the redistribution of wealth, for the well-being of the aged, for the advancement of youth, for the liberation of women and for the protection of our children. Our vision is for a free Ireland and a free people.

Sinn Féin is committed to our peace strategy. We have sought with honesty and integrity to construct a peace process which reaches out and embraces everyone on the island on the basis of equality. Our objective must be for an agreement that will earn the allegiance and respect of all sections of our people.

notice the first paragraph. i merely inserted "i". these are the objectives that i share. methods by which these goals are reached may differ

spookz, that's no more sinn fein's real position than I'm the queen mother. We may be negotiating with them for a peaceful solution - but we know what they are through long experience.

And frankly, I can't even see the topic from way out here. (Which, ironically, is a commentary on the accuracy of the thread's topic...)
 
Re: Lack of good posts reflects on posters, not Mods.

During the past few months the quality of posts on sciforums has degraded enormously.

I'm not going to take my time to point out specific examples, and if I'm chided for not doing so then oh well - it should be obvious to anyone of any decency that has been on here before this crap started occurring and getting more out of hand.

The number of my responses to posts has slowed down to a crawl. I find myself generally answering technical related questions on the Nerd Culture board. I don't even bother reading threads whose titles or first posts are blatantly another "let's see who can win the first place prize of the most arrogant person on the internet"

I think we need much better moderation around here if sciforums is going to be a place of useful discussion.

Dave I hate to tell you this but I'm not going to send you any more money in the mail either for an avatar or to support this site, if what I am getting from it doesn't amount to much.

Ummm. I don't think moderation is the place to blame. If there aren't good posts, it's because posters aren't posting good posts. What can Mods do but stir up cries of "censorship?"

I never start discussion threads on forums with generic titles like "What do you think about?" Huh? How in the world would a person know if that topic interests them, without first clicking on it? I always try to use specific and provocative titles that make it clear at a glance what a discussion is about, and on my forum on another website, rather than whine about the inevitable topic drift, I will rename a discussion if I need to, to better reflect its current topic or multiple topics.
 
The level of conversation on the WE&P forum hasn't gone up since the start of this thread, by the way. And while the Ignore list is becoming my fastest route to lower mental stress, it's starting to look a bit silly:

You didn't see it you liar! LOL, seriously I did not know of that gay porno thing. Mea Culpa! And why is G.K on you ignore, I mean he can be somewhat bias :)m: ) at times but he is no Johan (Jerrek), or Dj. I can't ignore anyone it seems. Losing to much ignorance to laugh at.
 
sparky is a facist pig. it will not tolerate dissension or opposing points of view.

look at the sheer gall.... threatening to put on ignore!
how unfortunate! what a waste of talent (ability to put idiots in their place)
 
Many of those people won't listen to others, they sit unwavering in there views, some are trollers and flamers. A beleive he has the right to ignore them.
