Guest bob_barron Posted March 16, 2003 Report Posted March 16, 2003 Why was he banned? For having different beliefs then everyone? Seriously- Other people were flaming him as well
Guest treble charged Posted March 16, 2003 Report Posted March 16, 2003 Can I just ask what he did that was wrong besides offer a differing opinion?
Guest Slapnuts00 Posted March 16, 2003 Report Posted March 16, 2003 I think his Smart should pose for Playboy idea in the other thread was in horribly bad taste and warranting of some type of punishment, plus its obvious that he's baiting everyone into an argument and then cursing at them if they dare say he's wrong and/or dilluisional. Good Call.
Guest bob_barron Posted March 16, 2003 Report Posted March 16, 2003 Look- Ozy was an asshole whose beliefs were radically different then everyone else but he backed up them with arguments and was only flaming when he was flamed back. SpiderPoet is just as guilty as well.
Guest Kahran Ramsus Posted March 16, 2003 Report Posted March 16, 2003 Re-read the purpose of this topic. This is trolling, pure and simple. People are entitled to their opinions, but this was a just a clear example of him trying to get people riled up.

Good Call. Eh- He was joking around- I've heard much worse in CE
Guest Anglesault Posted March 16, 2003 Report Posted March 16, 2003 Because he was an UnAmerican fuck, right! USA! USA! USA! ::Looks to see TC, Kahran, and barron as the other people here.:: Oh well.
Guest treble charged Posted March 16, 2003 Report Posted March 16, 2003 Well, I don't agree with that but that's neither here nor there. You're a mod, and I respect your decisions, but all the French bashing threads are pretty much the same thing as this, just from an opposite viewpoint. I think his Smart should pose for Playboy idea in the other thread was in horribly bad taste and warranting of some type of punishment, plus its obvious that he's baiting everyone into an argument and then cursing at them if they dare say he's wrong and/or dilluisional. Good Call. So, in other words, he's a liberal Marney.
Guest Slapnuts00 Posted March 16, 2003 Report Posted March 16, 2003 So, in other words, he's a liberal Marney. Nope, Marney although would curse at people and go a little overboard backed up all her arguments with solid proof, while Ozzy was simply trying to push conspiracy theories and anti-US propganda down our throats and then would claim we were admitting defeat if we didn't feel like watsing out breath on him.
Guest SP-1 Posted March 16, 2003 Report Posted March 16, 2003 Bob, how am I just as guilty? He was making absurd statements and backing them up with wordplay and rhetoric that didn't hold up in any way, shape, or form. Plus, he actually flamed in outright, outside of NHB, and did so blatantly. I was sarcastic perhaps but I was in the context of backing up my statements with logic and commonly known facts. So no. I did nothing like what he did.

Good Call. Eh- He was joking around- I've heard much worse in CE People have made dumb jokes at times, but I haven't seen any who start new threads that are so obviously intended just to piss people off. The only one I can really compare him to is Rob Johnstone, and he's gone too.
Guest Anglesault Posted March 16, 2003 Report Posted March 16, 2003 The "bin Laden didn't do it" portion was an obvious attempt to get someone to go postal on him. Real people don't think that way.

Guest Slapnuts00 Posted March 16, 2003 Report Posted March 16, 2003 heh, come to think of it Rob Johnson the far leaning Conservative bible thumper isolationist vs. Ozzy the bleeding heart liberal anti-government would be a fun debate!
Guest SP-1 Posted March 16, 2003 Report Posted March 16, 2003 And I'd like to add: I didn't go postal on him. I merely refuted his claims and started edging my way out of the discussion. Just as guilty my fat hairy ass.
Guest SP-1 Posted March 16, 2003 Report Posted March 16, 2003 How in the hell did I 'flame" him? Please show me.
Guest Kahran Ramsus Posted March 16, 2003 Report Posted March 16, 2003 Well, I don't agree with that but that's neither here nor there. You're a mod, and I respect your decisions, but all the French bashing threads are pretty much the same thing as this, just from an opposite viewpoint. If this was a board full of French in a deliberate attempt to rile them up, then I would agree. He wasn't posting this to bash the US, and if he did I'm not American so all power to him. He was posting this for no other reason than to start a fight, and that is not allowed.
Guest Anglesault Posted March 16, 2003 Report Posted March 16, 2003 Look- Ozy was an asshole whose beliefs were radically different then everyone else but he backed up them with arguments Not really. He backed them up with bizarre "wishes" and half truths based on nothing that can be substantiated.

The only one I can really compare him to is Rob Johnstone, and he's gone too. I was referring to the remark about Smart posing for Playboy. Well SP you didn't really try to argue with him- you called him an extremist and stuff like that. To me it just seemed like he was banned for having a differing viewpoint. There's tons of anti-French rhetoric in this folder (some of it warranted, some of it not) and Ozzy was just spoofing it.
Guest Slapnuts00 Posted March 16, 2003 Report Posted March 16, 2003 C'mon guys! No fighting! It's what Ozzy would want. I'd like to think you guys have more common sense and better communication skills than that!
Guest SP-1 Posted March 16, 2003 Report Posted March 16, 2003 Just spoofing it? He was obviously baiting anyone who would bite into a flame war, Bob. Read his posts. I know you like to try and be a fair guy and all and that's damned commendable, but sometimes there are just people that do shit like that. When they come along, let it go once they're dealt with. I'm a big believer in balance and all, but this time on my side I merely responded with sarcasm-tinted common knowledge facts, which is different than calling him "fucking clownshoes" and directly flaming him.
Guest Anglesault Posted March 16, 2003 Report Posted March 16, 2003 Well SP you didn't really try to argue with him- you called him an extremist and stuff like that. Well, he was. And he wasn't exactly leaping to deny that.
Guest treble charged Posted March 16, 2003 Report Posted March 16, 2003 How in the hell did I 'flame" him? Please show me. Welcome to the CE folder, bucko. I fear for you. I'm not going to sit here and egg him on in this stupid waste of bandwidth if he can't even argue logically or respectfully. Like I said, nothing serious, but you did insult him which is what I consider flaming.
Guest SP-1 Posted March 16, 2003 Report Posted March 16, 2003 *Ahem* "FUCKING CLOWNSHOES" Welcome to the CE folder, bucko. I fear for you. You *do* see the difference, right? Right?
Guest Anglesault Posted March 16, 2003 Report Posted March 16, 2003 I'm not going to sit here and egg him on in this stupid waste of bandwidth if he can't even argue logically or respectfully. That's not really flaming in my book. Calling a thread stupid or insulting the material is really inevitable here
Guest treble charged Posted March 16, 2003 Report Posted March 16, 2003 Well, 'fucking clownshoes' isn't exactly *bad*. I realize that he started the flaming, I'm not denying that, but he didn't do anything drastic.
Guest SP-1 Posted March 16, 2003 Report Posted March 16, 2003 What. The. Fuck? Okay, fine. If a mod wants to warn me over avoiding a direct flame and merely responding and calling the jerkoff on what he was doing, then fine. Do it. What the fuck ever.
