Terror Plot

I will miss Azrael23's open-minded world-view & the way he could effortlessly remain polite and progressive in the face of overwhelmingly (to me) aggressive close-mindedness, hypocrisy, ridicule & outright abuse.

He does huge cut and pastes and then tells people to piss off when he gets pulled up on breaking the posting guidelines.

Truly he is an example to us all.

I'm impressed with his ability to deny any connection to reality :rolleyes:
 
Right. Well I have just posted the very same article in UK politics, without being aware of this thread, because I guess azrael23 and I are on the same email list.

The most cursory reading of the article will show that it is well worth having on the boards. Yet you guys have just banned Azrael23 for posting it? Instead of thanking him? Jeez.

:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

You're an idiot.

So that's:

1. One huge pageful of cut and paste after repeated warnings
2. Another pageful of cut and paste after repeated warnings

which can only lead to:

3. Ban

And you've only got yourself to blame. Act like an arrogant cunt, get treated like an arrogant cunt.

You can be an interesting poster, now you're just looking stupid. Fuck off untill you learn to read.
 
I did Loki. It was entirely hysterical. Did anyone actually read the article?

I've always said I think C&P are fine as title posts, anyway. If the title post refers to an article why not have the whole lot? It's only into the thread that lengthy C&Ps have the effect of derailing discussion. A title post C&P cannot derail discussion, it doesn't yet exist.
 
oh ffs, this is what i mean about the hypocrisy - there's frequently all sorts of offensive crap on this website, which some people are quite happy to brush under the carpet and pretend it isn't there, or that the person meant something else when they quite plainly didn't, and yet when it appears in the guise of a ludicrous conspiracy theory that everyone can safely disagree with, they start frothing at the mouth about it.

Is it just because Azrael23 is an easy target, being obviously soft in the head, so people feel they have the right to attack him for stuff they're too chicken to pull everyone else up on?

So we should change the rules about endless, massive cut and pastes and make posters have to endure page long reposts from other sites just because you personally deem the article "well worth having on the boards," yes?

Do you understand why the approach people like you and Azrael take would mean people DON'T read what you post?:confused:

The sheer tide of rubbish means that even if you happen to post something worthwhile people aren't going to look at it. This article might be it but I'm certainly not inclined to waste time looking. As far as you achieve anything it's the exact opposite of what you aim at. Surely you must be able to see that?

I wouldn't miss you either, you tedious bore

Err, Azrael was warned more times that I care to remember about his FAQ-busting antics.

And then he went ahead and pasted up another three whole pagefulls of cut and paste.

He knew exactly what he was doing and has presumably got the result he was after.

Is this a stored up rant? Because I don't see evidence of huge (repeated) C&P being tolerated no matter who posts it up. :rolleyes:

erm, i'm not blaming you for banning him, to be honest it's probably better for him that he's banned.

If i was in your position i would have done it long ago.

You should realise that an obsessional application of the 'rules' belongs in the world of the traffic warden and the exceptionally poor police officer and is detrimental to the boards. There is nothing wrong with this article, it's news, it's been unjustly ignored by the mainstream because it's a hot potato, it's exactly the sort of article urban75 should want to publish.

You should also question whether C&Ps really derail discussion when they form the title post.

Actually I've replied on your own thread on this topic. It's not exactly breaking news, the Register covered it a while ago.

no, i know, and as i said i cant blame editor for banning him . i'm just annoyed and frustrated at some of the crap that has been on this site the last few days, and this is something that fucks me off quite a bit

Ive had a bad week so i'm kinda pissed off with everything and everyone at the moment ...

It must be some weird version of a throwing up bug, except that it makes you want to throw *things*, rather than throw up

I didn't see the original posts - but my guess is that it was the whole article cut into two chunks, not the same C&P repeated.

Anyway.

Presumably yes, in which case it implies it hit the charecter limit, that's a monsterous C&P in anyone's book.
 
"Huntley Is Innocent!"

"Vaccines Cause More Harm That The Diseases They Are Meant To Prevent!"

:D

Any other groundbreaking reports, Jazzz?

Well perhaps you should shut the fuck up and get the facts first.

He posted up a total of three *huge* FAQ-busting cut and pastes, two of which were from that biased author who censors comments off his website that make him look bad, but allows ones that agree with him - even if they're anonymous!
