Kao, can you ban Spinsharks IP? He's going pretty far overboard in suggesting someone put a shotgun in their mouth on the main FFXI board.

Thread is here:

http://ffxi.allakhazam.com/forum.html?forum=10&mid=1117497896924711362&num=24

Here's the post in which he said it:

Please don't hurt my feelings. I really care what randoms on an anonymous internet forum think of me, really I do.

The saddest part of this statement is that you really believe yourself to be well-liked on this forum, as evidenced by your incessant ******** about karma. Seriously, it's pathetic, just like you are as a person.

A solution to this crisis you may ask? Why, nothing a shotgun in the mouth can't handle!

Oh look, another mistake by the grammar policeman!

We have

The Asylum

for a reason.

When you egg people on, you tend to get a response.

SpinShark: Please stop telling FFXI'rs to kill themselves.
FFXI'rs: The more you react, the more fuel to the fire you add.

Take it to the Asylum or tone it down in FFXI.

I request a bad based on the info in this link.

Ban him from the FFXI forum, only, if you like ... But please ban him because he does nothing but inhibit worthwhile discussion.

Dear lord, you devote a lot of time to this. Why do you read his posts at all? See that little wheel on your mouse? It lets you scroll quickly past anything you want to skip.

I was going to post this in the main forum thread about this topic, but it got locked as I was composing.

Since it's important to my tiny ego to be recieve validation through the knowledge that other people have seen, read, or scrolled quickly past my brainspills, just to know that somehow I have imparted my weak opinions and observations out into the world beyond my own head, I'll paste it here instead.

He isn't a troll.

Stop and seriously listen to what he says.


Being 'right' and being a troll are not mutually exclusive.

Quote:
Well one thing he's not is original. That's a straight up Maddox rip off, as I'm sure plenty of his "material" is.


Like his sig. Nonlinear also declared himself king, and demanded that you rate him up because he was better than you.

Quote:
I will forever love his "guide to getting rated up on Allakazham" because it's TRUE


Very likely this too. I haven't read it, but it sounds very much like something Nonlinear had in his journal. I'd be somewhat amused to find out that it was the same thing.





Quote:
Jord, the worst thing you can possibly do is start a thread about a troll.


He's right, you know.

Quote:
You people are ALLL certifiably RAGED to tears, and my mission is accomplished.


See? He won.

The reason people say 'don't feed the trolls' is because to acknowledge them (or worse yet, let them get to you) is to grant them power.

The height of power that a troll can aspire to is to become such a nuissance that people start threads about him, crying for his banishment.


"If you strike me down, I will become more powerful than you can possibly imagine."

    You can't complain about a troll and then dedicate a thread to it on the main board.

    Looking over post history, SpinShark has toned things down since this morning as requested. Previous offensive posts have been removed, and he knows what is coming to him if they resurface (tight leash, SpinShark).

    Thanks for obliging me with the link.

    While not terribly original, it isn't what I thought it was going to be.

    I was recalling nonlinear's guide to getting sage status in <x-number of> easy steps.

    Hmmm but it seems you have to go out of the Asylum to get a good reaction. Just sayin

    How is something not original if I thought it up? I could make something that no one has ever thought of in human history, and you would still say "not original."


    I say it wasn't original because you're nowhere near the first person here who's posted such a "guide" (expressing more or less the same sentiments) in order to express their observations about
    A) the imperfect karma system,
    and
    B) the predicatble social habits of the forum community.

    I didn't accuse you of copying the idea, I just suggested that it wasn't as clever as you'd like it to be.

    Quote:
    That line of yours has gone stale long ago.


    As has, my vitriolic friend, your routine.
    We both need some fresh material.

    Quote:
    You sure do remember a lot about that guy. He must've fascinated you.


    At first, he was actually an interesting troll.
    I was amused by reading his posts much in the same way some are presently by you.

    Near the end, though, it was almost like a different person.
    He stopped being wryly intelligent and succumbed to laziness; his diatribes and insults becoming no more clever than those of ordinary sophomoric trolls.

    What fascinates me the most is how someone who was clearly so bright degenerated into such a poo-flinging monkey at the end.

    Quote:
    Oddly enough, I got a sock to scholar in 15 posts by following my rate up guide. Seriously. That's a sad statement for the forum if ever there was one.


    Nothing so odd about that. Your points were perfectly valid, even if you used them as an attempt to simply overgeneralize a large body of people in order to throw blanket insults at them.

    There are plenty of sad statements for the forum.
    If you're truly so concerned about the state of the forum, why aren't you using all that energy to directly troll the admins via PMs? If you want to see something fixed, why not go straight to the source, where the influence is?
    Instead, you continue to poke the sheep, loudly proclaiming your wolflike superiority on the outside of the fence.
    Are you afraid of the rancher's shotgun?
