Perma-Ban Desdia please

I dont think he should be banned just because he hates all of us and posts about it, in general I haven't seen any serious "name-calling" hatred that usually gets people banned, he just seems to be stating his other view of why we all suck at poker which isn't really a harsh insult.

In general I am against most forms of censorship including this one. Once he crosses that line and starts threatening people or being racist, then ban him. I think he should stay until then. Its another voice (albeit obviously misguided) that just wants to be heard. Surely he represents the sentiments of a lot of people who read these forums so why not let him speak and let the people he's talking about respond, or not, as they see fit.

If you really want him gone just put him on ignore.

sorry dude but your wrong on this one.

its not about whether he has the right or not
its he is abusing the forum, not sure if you actually read his posts or not

I'm generally with you about censorship; however this guy states things that generally are detrimental to good threads. I don't think the stuff he says adds anything meaningful.

[Apathy]

For the record my comments are based on the general issue (most important), what I remember reading from his posts and the bigjoe thread I read, and the fact that this shouldn't be such SERIOUS business. Like just block him if you don't read his posts..who cares.


edit: also lol @ travis's comment

He is a huge troll. While he might not result to overt personal attacks and racism he derails threads with idiotic comments and does not contribute anything of value to 2p2.

[rakemeplz]

Dunno why you guys build up threads responding to this guy. I know most of you guys know this but don't respond and he won't post, this is trolling 101.

With that out of the way banning this clown is a good thing.

Peter,

Stop being such a tree-hugging socialist. You're in America now. Trolling is serious business 'round these parts.

[bigj0e03]

I'll say this. Him being such a loser allows me to call him a douchebag, and I enjoy doing that...but then again I enjoy banning people (especially mortgage collectors like Desdia) so I vote ban but wont be upset if hes not banned bc calling him names is fun.

[durron597]

i banned him for a week a couple of hours ago (i.e. before this thread was posted)

edit: just looked at the timestamp of my post in bigjoe's thread. 2 hours before this thread was posted.

[hoyasnaxa]

He definitely shouldnt be banned ahead of Indy.
