Bullshit

response 26 of 107: Mark Unseen   Jan 24 03:06 UTC 2004

(It should be noted that most every item willcome posted has posts from other
accounts or users, and are therefore distinct.)

Re. 25:  Why do you hate fun things like Greek Week?

Of course, Greek Week used fewer resources than either of those STAFF MEMBERS
AND BOARD MEMBERS AND ETC MEMBERs.

I for one, am shocked at the virtually scandalous behaviour exhibited by GreX
members and staffers.  They have clearly shown here that they are ignorant
and slanderous of both Canadian and Greek cultures.  I demand that the willcome
account be returned to its rightful owner.

Bullshit.  Clear and obvious vandalism.

I think it's time we contacted polytarp's ISP.

Wow. Harsh words. I'm sure their ISP will hop-to, just like they did last year
when M-Net was having the same problem with polytarp & co.

If they have membership rights here, take them away. That seems to be the only
thing that got 'em bent out of shape last time.

It would be interesting to see how far they would make it on
the Well.  This sort of behaviour only tends to have an impact
on communities that provide little to now barrier to entry
such as m-net and grex.

This type of stuff happens from time to time, and yes, making it 
really easy to get an account and be up and posting does make it far 
easier for the vandal.  But it also makes it much easier for every 
other new user to get into the discussions and be part of the 
community.  Worth the infrequent disruption, by far, in my opinion.

There are ways to minimize this type of vandalism.  A lot of it has 
to do with not rewarding this behavior with lots of attention.

I still see '63 new items' - have they been deleted?  I am doing a read 1-10
n instead of r n.

response 34 of 107: Mark Unseen   Jan 24 14:13 UTC 2004

So what's the deal going to be?  Is this going to be a 'letter versus spirit'
issue?  Will we have to write down every usual polite civil unwritten behavior
as a member proposal in order to have things like this stop?

PS it's the weekend and I'll be honest and say that waking up to see this
kind of behavior sure doesn't motivate me to work hard on NextGrex.

Do I really want to hurry the day when someone like willcome can use a more
powerful machine to more quickly and completely cause chaos because it amuses
him?

The consistent use of "they" in referral to willcome clearly shows the
attitude the GreX staff and members have towards users they consider
"outsiders".  This I consider absolute rubbish.  It sure doesn't motivate new
users to get a membership with a corporation who obviously doesn't want it.

There are no "outsiders" on Grex - but there are certainly jerks and
vandals. Even then, we only poke fun at jerks - but vandals are
totally unacceptable. I have no interest in vandals getting a Grex
membership in order to cause everyone trouble.

NB:  polytarp, dah and willcome are separate userIDs, so "they" is an
appropriate pronound to use for those userIDs.
naftee
response 38 of 107: Mark Unseen   Jan 25 00:36 UTC 2004

Oh, so you admit that userIDs are the problem, and not the people who own
them?  In that case, you should have no problem with contacting or banning
anyone's ISP.

I chopped willcome's Plato out of item #18; that leaves one copy in 
item #100 for now.  Also rebuild the sum file in case it'd do any good.

Thanks Walter.  And thanks to Katie for killing the repeated items.

wow. skip grex for a day and look what happens. I would really like to 
think the folks that fixed things. My grex experience this morning has 
been very pleasant.

response 42 of 107: Mark Unseen   Jan 25 20:38 UTC 2004

Thank you staff for doing what you needed to do.  I would indeed support
banning the site used by willvome if he does not improve his behavior.

Is this willcome/polytarp the same @#$% that drove Valerie away?
mcnally
response 44 of 107: Mark Unseen   Jan 25 20:57 UTC 2004

  As much as I regret her absence, I think it's only fair to point out
  that nobody but Valerie could make Valerie leave Grex.

response 45 of 107: Mark Unseen   Jan 25 21:35 UTC 2004

I have installed a filter which makes every post by willcome/dah/
naftee/polytarp appear as "I am an idiot and a vandal." as I read 
bbs.  I find it makes my bbs experience much better.  Of course, 
since all his posts now say that, I find no value in responding to 
any of them since all I could do is agree over and over again.

That was actually funny.

response 48 of 107: Mark Unseen   Jan 26 05:00 UTC 2004

What's even funnier is that he sees "I am an idiot and a vandal." instead of
what you said.

naftee
response 49 of 107: Mark Unseen   Jan 26 16:54 UTC 2004

What's funny is that there's nothing in his cfonce that would do that.
