-Constantly bashing his own ideas and opinions on the forum when for the most part people rarely asked for his opinion, nor cared what it was.
->> And...? Reminds me of something an annoying person once said when he was bashing his opinions on others. DON'T TASE ME BRO. - I can say that. I'm a Gator.
-Constantly disrespecting particular forum moderators that he didn't agree with, or like.
->> Again, gripes are normal. I wasn't informed that one had to worship the mods to be permitted to post here. In that case, I'm glad I only post sparingly, as for the most part I'd probably be in the same boat. If personal opinions are the criterion for banning, it's a sad state.
-Constantly claiming to be lamb of god/martyr for the right of the forum, when he was in fact the source of most of the forums problems.
->> Interesting assumption. Although he is by no means a martyr, the problem seems to come from both his idiocy and the responses made by the forum mods. Tok'ra's like those people from that wacked american church that protests soldiers' funerals. The more you hate them, the more they claim to be martyred, the more they act up. It's a cycle. Tok'ra's in the cycle.
-Insisting on defying moderators with the excuse that "there is no rule against it".
->>Again, if worshiping the moderators is the law and any dissent isn't tolerated, it only makes the forums look like a monarchy, with Admin on the throne and the mods his loyal knights. If such is true, it doesn't present a very appealing facade.
-Constantly creating controversial threads to feed his attention addiction and stir trouble up, as well as create mess for the moderators to clean up.
-->Controversy = mess = delete? I didn't realize the forums were being whitewashed. We have always been at war with oceania?
-Constantly creating threads in the inappropriate sections when knowing full well that they were in the inappropriate sections. (again, drawing the "no one has defined the general section" card).
--> Okay, not disputing this one either.
This in the real world is what you call a Menace to society. This is not the "real world", granted, but it is a place that people like to come to relax, to read, to sometimes post about their wars and to read something interesting. No one should have to tolerate people like Tok'ra, just because it is his right to be a pain in the neck.
--> Interesting statement, the last sentence. If he has a right to be a pain in the neck, then in fact, he has the right to speak. No one has to listen, respond, etc. That's their choice, and for that Tok'ra is not to blame. It's like the saying I hear often "you have the right to speak, but not the right to force us to listen." He's not forcing you to listen. You can ignore him. Instead, the choice was made to oppose him at every turn, publicly criticise his actions, and give him more attention, just like this thread has done.
It is our right to be able to say "you know what, he is really making this place unpleasant for the majority of people, can something be done."
In this case, it wasn't even the people who voted him off. Though I don't have any doubt they would have if given half a chance. It was Forum, you may remember him from such games as Stargatewars, Stargatewars; Quantum, Stargatwars; Chaos, Stargatewars; Ascension.
--> So...lemme see if I've got this. You have the right to complain (true) and based on complaints, Forum can sweep in and ban him just because he's a pest. Good to know. We have always been at war with Oceania indeed.
He is doing the right thing by us. He is making a lot of wishes come true.
If he thought it was in the best interested to keep the Menace around, he would still be around.
Now tell me again how he was a positive influence on the forums?
--> In conclusion, a pest, an annoyance, a royal pain in the mik'ta is gone. Your statement concludes that since Forum removed him, it must be the best option. Now tell me again how this "society" you have described as this forum is a good thing? You've stated that through censorship, banning based on opinion, and restriction of criticism for the elite in status, we can all have a better brighter world. So long as we don't question Big Brother.
