He will have to come back. I'm talking about more than a username ban.

Ban the IP.

If he comes back when a proxy...there are 2 avenues he takes.

1) He tells no one who he is. He obviously needs to change his personality...win for us.

2) He is quiet for 2 weeks, tells everyone who he is, he gets banned again...win for us.

I predict, if left unchecked, that this eventually leads to a "board split" where a secondary board is created by someone else and 33% of the people leave both boards, some post on both, but most people go to one or the other. This happens in a lot of online communities when the experience gets too annoying. The reason it hasn't happened here is that the sheer numbers of people on the board are not enough to make it easy as it is in a community of thousands.

Nay

I respectfully disagree. Que Beavis/Panthro may have some odd quirks to him, but I think he has some rather entertaining threads. I laugh at how seriously bent out of shape some of you guys get about him. I don't really know what went down with all the Panthro/Darko stuff....really kind of unfortunate because I consider both of them friends. I've had no problem at all with him... quite the contrary actually. He invited me to his 4th of July party, called my old show a few times and bought me a drink when we were at a Score remote one time....we even jammed once. I guess I'm alone, but I really do think he has a place here. He hasn't hurt anybody as far as I know. Just seems like some of you are letting him get under your skin.

Let's not turn this into some kind of dictatorship (although it's bigfans's board and he can do what he wants of course). I get the impression that judge bf doesn't really have that much of a problem with him.

Meh...to me, there are much more important things to worry about than banning someone we find annoying. Concentrate on the good, ignore the bad/annoying.

I can guarantee one thing. He is liking this attention....trust me. Who doesn't like to be talked about? Kind of like being a minor celebrity (sad, but true)

He hasn't hurt anybody as far as I know.

I'll be honest. As long as the "View Active Topics" function still displays his posts and he posts 4 or 5 times in a row it's impossible to ignore him. It's unrealistic to expect a large group of people to all work together to all ignore him.

It's much easier to find a new board or ignore this board. I think most of us would rather not do that.

Exactly! He is playing you guys like a fiddle. This is exactly the reaction he is looking for. You can't ban this guy. This whole play is a thing of genius. Yes, it's a little twisted, and I sure as hell wouldn't waste the time doing it, but Panther has reached Andy Kaufman-like notoriety with this whole work. He'd probably make a helluva wrestling booker!

No talking about family members, Frank.

That's strike 1 - I'm telling on you.

Seriously, though, anyone who truly thinks I "planned" this big uproar is giving me waaaaay too much credit.

I posted the pic as a joke, thinking that if fuckyeahnouns thought it was ok, as it was not a pic of a human being, it would be just another funny fuckyeahnouns pic.

If you want to make it more than that, I can't stop you, but I sure didn't ask for this hub-bub.

Oh no....no....here we go again.
