Yes, but by trying to establish a discussion with him, one to which he has yet to respond, you merely add to the problem.

What does doing this have to do with stopping him? Please go back and read thread.
Troll
I presume that you are saying that he is seeking the attention. I would buy into this argument if there was any chance that everyone would simply ignore him.
Clearly, this has not been the case (and probably never will be). When he first appeared and began his campaign, I did nothing to contribute to his disruption. I did nothing for at least 4 days straight as he came into arenas I had been playing in and begin his commotion. I simply moved to another arena and played on. After nearly a week, I finally began to ask him to stop with the inflammatory macros since it was causing problems. I did not engage in any political discussions with him at all, to this day I have never discussed my political opinion with him at all. Since that time, every single time I see him in an arena, there are many people arguing with him, flaming each other and not playing. This is independent of my actions.
If I were not in the picture at all, I struggle to believe how anything would be much different. I do not think my actions as being ultra-proactive, I do not think that I have made this issue larger than it is. My intent from the beginning has been clear, I simply do not want him to cause long-term harm to the game.
If you other guys think that I’m doing the wrong thing here, please speak up and I will go away. Unlike Spin, I am willing to listen to the majority.

Why are people even trying to rationalize with him? There is no indication that he even listens or cares about what we say. (It's debatable whether he even cares about what he's saying himself).
This is nothing put spam with a political slant.

3) Give me the money
Maybe if we close this thread, then he might stop or post somewhere else (IE in another thread). This might make him more noticeable and more of a disturbance forcing staff to do something. So forum admins do you work.
Notice how I said Fascism in my post and how he is misinturpting its function, but then goes on to basicly to say I am trying to sell it off or that I like it in some way. Not countering it in anyway just changing the subject into how the USA is becomming Fascist. Its like a fucking robot picking up fragments of information and unintelligently replying with what limited information it has.
Edit: Ephemeral I agree with you. Hes causing problems and it could also effect the game in the long run. I don't think anyone knows what he intent is, thats why he angers so many people. Give us a clear plan outlined on what you hope to get out of this Spinsanity. If your not going to leave wait for a political thread to be posted and give your opinion (not more pasting & no pictures). If you can't give us some simple answers then move on, or staff take the next logical step.Last edited by Kolar; 07-21-2003, 08:30 PM.

spinsanity tells it like it is!
More spinsanity views
A conservative Congressman states the obvious: Bush and PNAC are creating a fascist state
America is too important to fall for Bush!
Just say no.. to BushCo brand of Fascism!
Mussolini views on fascism ... compared to Bush and PNAC's world view
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Mussolini
believes neither in the possibility nor the utility of perpetual peace. It thus repudiates the doctrine of Pacifism
Bush and PNAC
There’s a precise reason to argue for war over peace according to Ledeen, for "…peace increases our peril by making discipline less urgent, encouraging some of our worst instincts, in depriving us of some of our best leaders."
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Mussolini
For Fascism, the growth of empire, that is to say the expansion of the nation, is an essential manifestation of vitality, and its opposite a sign of decadence.
Bush and PNAC
They are not bashful about an American empire; instead they strongly endorse it.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Mussolini
Fascism combats the whole complex system of democratic ideology, and repudiates it, whether in its theoretical premises or in its practical application
Bush and PNAC
They believe pertinent facts about how a society should be run should be held by the elite and withheld from those who do not have the courage to deal with it.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Mussolini
The Fascist State organizes the nation, but leaves a sufficient margin of liberty to the individual; the latter is deprived of all useless and possibly harmful freedom
Bush and PNAC
They endorse attacks on civil liberties, such as those found in the Patriot Act, as being necessary.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Mussolini
the nineteenth century was the century of Socialism, of Liberalism, and of Democracy, it does not necessarily follow that the twentieth century must also be a century of Socialism, Liberalism and Democracy: political doctrines pass, but humanity remains, and it may rather be expected that this will be a century of authority...a century of Fascism.
Bush and PNAC
PNAC - Project for New American Century (the name ripped it from pages of Mussolini)
They accept the notion that the ends justify the means-that hardball politics is a moral necessity.
[if you mislead the public.. then you negate Democracy]

Feel free to close this thread, it has turned into something that it wasn’t intended to be.
It was intended to be an intelligent discussion about a disruption in TW and possible solutions. Now, it is a fanatical spamfest.
I believe the rules for the forum read as
2. No Spam
3. No Disgusting/Porn pictures, including links.
5. When posting pics, please keep the screen and file size reasonable.
6. Keep your fights in Trash Talk forums
Feel free to implement anyone of these rules in regards to the current Spin/office posts.
