Why don't people get banned for thread crapping?

Seriously, at one point we're talking about a political topic then some idiot who thinks its ok to have a jab at my origins butts in... and continues it for 4 to 5 posts, and probably will still do... doesn't get banned. Now thats intentional degradation of the board and targetting a member of the forums.

Now I seriously do not believe in replying with "Yo momma"...

Come on,every now and then its you who base your arguments on the fact that "you have roots their and so you are symphatethic and so on".Its you who always brings out your roots to supplement your claims.

If you are not ready to take the heat,then y r u bringing it out.

Dude the point here is Thread Crapping. There's this constant desire amongst some WAB members to discuss ME! Get over me, I know I'm bad ass and all thats great. But quit it, I'd prefer we talked about issues. I've seldom strayed from topics. I've seldom replied "Oh isn't this bad in India too?". I've never justified Pakistan's shortcomings with the wrongs committed in India. I'd consider myself to be a weak pathetic man, if I did so, I take challenges head on.

Like this thread is about thread crapping, but somehow I know it'll get crapped over as well.

Please do. There's so much BS going on that the smell has quite gone really bad.

I would, Julie. And I would start with INDIANGUY4U.

1. Never adds to the discussion.

2. Incapable of posting anything other than off topic insults to the Pakistani or Kashmiri posters.

3. Unable to follow the topic, so substitutes snide one-liners for intelligent replies.

Then I would move on to RANI LAKSHMIBAI.

1. One trick pony. Posts only troll threads. Started with his intro, and has gone downhill from there.

2. Insults the Colonel.

3. Unable to follow the topic, even when he starts the thread himself. Posts incredibly long rants that no one can read. Talks down to everyone who doesn't agree with him. Brainwashed.

I have more....

I vote for...

M21Sniper for Global Mod!

I think calling people out in public is not the best way to go about this. If you have a problem with specific posters, it would be best to contact the mods directly and point to the offending material. Doing it this way is likely to start a flame war. There is of course the ignore list for those you don’t wish to hear anymore, just FYI.

Actually, one is already on my iggy list. When he gets quoted, I still see his comments.

If the Mods don't like my post, they will delete it. By naming names, maybe the posters I mentioned will think about their contributions to the board. If they want to flame me, it's okay, I can ignore them.
