Abusive questions...should they be left in?

[meredith101]

I just read this 'question'

http://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Body-and-Soul/Q uestion466071.html

which is basically not a quesiton, just a vitriolic direct attack on another user. Should these be banned? I don't know why they are posted but to stir up trouble.

[B00]

I'm not saying the post was correct either, I personally don't like Legend either, I do believe last week he called me a sad old bint, among other things, but I wouldn't dream of making a thread stating my dislike.

[China Doll]

I report all of that sort of stuff.

Mainly cause I find it tedious, childish (on all parts) and very stupid. I've never made any secret of my feelings on this type of thread and I didn't do so on that one.

A thread insulting me could last a bit longer than you think BS considering some of the things I say!

[dolly pond]

here here boo!! sinking to his level is sad, should ignore him, ban is answers and move on, hes winning if no-on reports them! i have, and i will cos i`m nice and decent, (sometimes)
and i`m ill with a horrid cold, and am sneezing lots, x

[China Doll]

Ahem... GS.

How fraudien ;0P

[meredith101]

does anyone have any chocolate biscuits?

[4getmenot]

but it doesnt bother legend and he doesnt want it reported.

[China Doll]

I don't give a t0ss what he wants. I did it cause I don't like them.

And yes, beer would be great... can I get some brie, pickled onion and crackers too? Ta.

[meredith101]

I'm not sure I understand this. Doesn't the pickled onion smother the brie's subtle taste? I prefer grape.

[dolly pond]

its gone now anyway so we can all move on and relax. this thread only needs one more report! c

[China Doll]

You'd think so but it actually doesn't.

You have to lather the cracker in brie and then put a couple of slices of pickle onion on. Not the whole onion. That would be excessive I agree.

Although grape is also a good alternative.

[Octavius]

I have to agree with what almost everyone is saying � the coherent ones anyway. I saw the thread, saw the amount of answers, popped in popped out and ignored it. In my own magnanimous way I could have taken the time to look read and report, but to be honest I couldn�t be arsed. Most of the thread was � as ever � taken over by the �man� himself anyway so I thought it was the safest place for him to ramble on in a silent empty room.

For some inexplicable reason AB Editor tends to let things stay, presumably so that everyone can see how unapprised some ABUsers are.

[B00]

Well we can't win then Legend. If we report them, you damn us, if we join in, you damn us and if we'd rather not get involved......you damn us again?

You can't have it all ways can you?

[China Doll]

Seriously, brie and pickled onion... try it!

[Shadow Man]

dolly-pond.

I have tried ignoring him. I NEVER post on his threads nor mention him.

However, he takes it upon himself to mention me in 0.04 percent of all his threads. It may not sound much but when he posts 67000 inane questions and answers per day, the figure is quite high.

I only ever give him some lip when he mentions me. He has ruined thousands of decent threads with inane crap, youtube links and nasty comments.

The man has a problem and in particularly a drink problem.

He really should have some dignity and leave. Yes, about 4 people on here dislike me intensly and guess what I IGNORE THEM, until I bite.

To be hated by at least 50 percent of AB like he is, is beyond the human condition. The man is one sick saddo. Buthey ho, he lives on the beach that's why he is always on here spouting wrongly paragraphed crap.

[4getmenot]

how does he get time to have a drink problem with his answerbank problem lol

[Octavius]

I would probably give an erudite response to that, if only I could understand it. But I'll try.

Wjat sort of people are amused by shadow and rev - I don't know, they rarely make me laugh so I would limit to the isane, the inane and some poor misguided fools (ooh, Starsailor!).

What kind of people would report it? Anyone who wanted to, presumably as they see no merit in a thread which is neither a question, a debate nor a contribution to the wellbeing and happy sailing of HMS Answerbank.

Who's worse? Erm anyone who joined in. That would be you, mostly.

Encouraged by silence? I think most people enjoy silence, especially on such a thread as the one referred to. Closely followed by elimination.

Intellectual - thats me! Here is the answer!!

[Goodsoulette]

China, I love it.

Bicker

Seriously, brie and pickled onion... try it!


I'm looking for the threads saying they condone it but I cant find any. Maybe I need some special specs to see what you are seeing!

[Goodsoulette]

Octavius, you mentioned Starsailor. Yay, my faves!

[China Doll]

Well someone had to give a sensible answer.

It was either that or go back to your question and see if I was in trouble with Octavius.
