im with nat all the way on this one.....GCSB is a total loser......this is about the 3rd or so thread in which he has
1) been attention seeking ...which must go against one of the forum rules

2) been annoying the #### out of everyone

why do people like this have to badger everyone else the whole time????

Why is a positive atmosphere always ruined? I know it sounds cheesy but cant we just all be nice for once? please?.... smile.gif

well one more chance and if he is rude arrogant or whatever then we all just block him (i think thats a fair compromise)
sl123451
all the other threads have a positive vibe.....everybody gets on fine and has a laugh....when GCSB posts, everything seems to be negative because hes so cocky and full of himself.

remember...afresh...like a pillow...if we give him a chance he might change... like a pillow... if you get what i mean...sorry am i being random...

CrazyDudette22

Sometimes it takes more than one lesson to fully learn the facts.Besides, shouldnt we be setting a good example? wink.gif laugh.gif

This is honestly getting unpleasant. If any of you really don't like someone why not simply ignore their posts. There is no need to "ignore user" just don't respond to the posts. It's very simple.

I've noticed at least one or two responders getting obsessive about the poster subject of this topic to the point of neurosis.

Simply, it will put off new posters. Since I joined 10 weeks ago the site has gained almost 750 new registrations. How many of them have posted?

I think part of the problem is that this has all happened before - in July/August. So it's a case of deja vu. (Or however you spell it - my French isn't very good!) So if folk seem a bit annoyed and over-the-top in their reactions it's because all this advice has been given before, and rejected (for the most part, although to be fair, not all.) I think people get very angry and frustrated when their advice and help is ignored and in fact thrown back at them, and unfortunately tempers get frayed all round. And on this occasion, even more so because it's all been seen before.

well as i said before one more chance then should all make a request to the mods to remove him and his other four accounts (polanaises, etude in gold, etc etc) or simply ignore him and thats my last word on the subject

This could be a good general rule: when people are being rude or arrogant, just ignore them completely (I mean, stop replying on their posts) then conflicts won't get a chance to escalate. Whenever they change and prove they are not that bad, we can give them new chances.

That is the usual good advice about trolls, or suspected trolls. A gentle 'Do not feed the trolls' post can remind others of the policy. smile.gif

I'm sorry to say that you're up against a closed institution here so it's probably best to let go. Hopefully others will have the sense to as well.

I've said this before and I'll say it again: if you don't post anything disagreeable, nobody will complain. But to continue posting (and even starting a new thread) about how people should leave you be will only achieve the opposite effect and encourage the idea that you are arrogant and an attention seeker.

Do to others as you would have them do to you.

Permit me to be a bit unmodest, but I did have this slight inclination of feeling that the whole café would fall to ruins without me!!! *Big arrogant grin* biggrin.gif But I'm back now, so everyone better get back to work, or you're all FIRED! tongue.gif

(Sorry, but I thought I'd better bring some light-heartedness into this conversation, I mean, 6 whole pages of whining and pining is a bit much, isn't it?! dry.gif )

wobby can i talk about my wages please?
Wobby
Sure, but if you don't get back to serving the customers soon, I'll cut your salary!!! tongue.gif

~Wobby~
sl123451
actually im wondering what my salary is ? huh.gif
Wobby
It's currently 99 times what your wage was when you first started, but if you're not careful, I'll reduce it to sin30cos30 + sin60cos60 - 1! tongue.gif If you know your maths!

~Wobby~
sl123451
i must say im lost! huh.gif

In that case, you'd better get back to serving the guests, 'garçon'! smile.gif

Ooh, can I have a salary of half-root-3 plus 1 then? biggrin.gif. Sounds better than my current deal wink.gif.
Wobby
But if you really need help, sin30 = cos 60 = 1/2, and sin60 = cos 30 = √3/2... so work it out!

~Wobby~
Wobby
Oops, doh!!!! I mean sin30cos60 + sin60cos30 - 1!!! I knew I shouldn't have edited that post!
