Happy Easter!

[mjmjr25]

I haven't read enough of his posts to make directional thumb verdict - the first post that caught my eye was when he suggested showing my young kids porn? And then just a general line about Easter (and other religious) days being "Bullshit". I'm not sure how either of those sparked debate or intriguing conversation. I'm really not for kicking anyone off of forums - it's a free country and this is a very, VERY intelligent forum that respects free speech and wide opinion. Of which, much of the present opinion is the guy is a jerk who jacks up what was a pretty straight forward thread, ie, "Happy Easter".

[Flake]

I am not "siding" with him but I found Flake's post telling him to fuck off and never come back to be quite excessive. He certainly offers something valuable to this board (often in his role as flame-bait in chief) in that he makes people explain their own position more clearly in order to disagree with him.

Seriously? The guy spends the last 24 hours telling people they are wrong for even HAVING religious beliefs and that he's some kind of awkward hero for trying to set everyone RIGHT and I am the one who is out of line for saying exactly what everyone thinks? Using his OWN logic / methodology?

But hey, that's fine. That's just swell. Who feels like UNO in IRC tonight?

The nail has been hit on the head.

agreed. Sorry. I can't pretend like there's something beneficial about him stirring up shit on an otherwise friendly forum.

Please keep going. I love this.

Also I want to find where he said to show your kids porn. That is so boss.

Look for his "Guilt and Gaming" topic, I think.

To be fair, Inazuma took back the porn remark when he learned how young mjmjr25's kids are.

to be honest DSH (and this is of course just MY opinion) I don't feel he offers anything valuable to this board. I think he offers a bunch of derailings and annoyances. Maybe that's just me (but I don't think it is from well, many of the threads with other forum members saying the same thing.) And if Flake was excessive, it was only because he was pushed over a certain line that many of us seem to just BARELY stop ourselves from crossing with the guy on a regular basis.

I'm going to have to agree here with Noise. There's a difference between a forum member that stirs up discussions in a good way and one that doesn't. I'm actually surprised that we haven't had more outbursts about this than we have.

Fact is, most people here try to respect other people's opinions regardless what we think of them. Inazuma hasn't been so kind to return that gesture. He's gotten a bit better, but, even at his nicest it's still hard to find a word to describe him other than rude. I can understand why you may like having somebody stir things up around here. Inazuma's method is not the way to go about that though. He turns our friendly environment into one of hostility, and I'm NOT okay with that.

I know I don't have much of a say. I'm not a mod, or one of the older members of the forum but, this is my 2 cents.

[CFFJR]

I too am bothered by the hostility.

It seriously concerns me that users are now getting annoyed with each other while arguing about Inazuma.

Having said that though, I'm not sure what the solution is.
