The fact that this guy is normal off the boards is part of the problem! The persona we see on the board is SOO out of place. His lack of respect and being genuine inhibits honest conversation on the board.
His posts are like being a part of a serious discussion about Islam and the evolving political landscape of the middle-east with a group of people and having one of them interject "Obama's a muslim piece of shit and I hope he dies!" It is awkward and offensive, and usually a discussion killer. We've all been in that conversation, and RR Incarnations are known for it.

You're good with words, I'd give you that.......but you're viewing the thread too seriously. This thread is, whether you believe it or not, mostly for entertainment purposes.
Yes I entertain myself with things on the board. Just as you are doing. The MODs are dealing with RR and there is NOTHING you do that helps.... They are much more adept in flushing him out than you are.
A difference in what you do and what I do is that when I take a position on a cause and go after a single person it is usually for some transgression that greatly affects a lot of members.
I don't believe he does that. You have a hard on for him because he called you out and fucked with you personally.... It was dealt with BY the MODS and You are keeping it alive..... Kind of like kicking a man when he is down....
I've already made it clear that my disapproval is of RR's online persona and does not translate to how I would act towards him in real life. For all you that know him in the RW and are standing up for him here, I hope you'd consider the other board members RR potentially shuts down because of his approach. Be objective.....gauge him for his online persona when he's posting on here.
I give little respect to ANY member that allows a board bully to "shut them down" If someone like rocker Rick or myself can post something that affects them so much as to walk away from the screen then Fuck Them. This is a SHMB and should not be taken that seriously by anyone.
It would be boring if only posters sharing the same opinions were to dominate every discussion......not that there's anything wrong with that, if indeed everyone has the same views......but if it's a result of dissenting members not speaking up because of the intimidation they receive.....it defeats the purpose of a board for exchanging information....

Jesus Christ, Whispers...are you fucking kidding????I disagree.....
I am going to go through some of the posts his aliases have made to me and repost them; he has regularly been rude, accusatory, and contentious!
This is not a 'hold others accountable' or 'call them on their shit' attitude! This guy is looking for a fight where a fight isn't necessary or welcomed. I can't easily think of any other people (save Annika) who I have seen be so acerbic without provocation.
I remember RR comments from 6+ months ago, and many of them added to the conversation in positive ways, but for the last few, he has been on a downward-trending slope of instigation and bullshit. Originally Posted by 3daygetaway
