1. It wasn't really directed at that, to be honest.
  2. Originally posted by thejonner:It's not his politics I mind - although they're far removed from my own - but his tone, general attitude and the way he responds to views different from his. We're all shaped by the way we see the world, be it in accordance with or opposing our opinions, but Aaron's demeanour is so endlessly abrasive and dismissive that I genuinely believe that this place would be better off without him. Again, he is certainly entitled to his views, as are all of us, but when a person spends so much time insulting strangers and hiding behind web based anonymity, it makes me wonder about their personality and social skills. One might call it sociopathy or even autism, but Aaron is nothing but a discordant presence. I've no idea about this, and I'm happy to be corrected, but does he ever discuss MUSIC or the band we're all here to share our love for?

    I don't discuss the band, cause there has not been any worthwhile U2 news in a long time. I am active on a semi-regular basis in general chat though, where you can find me bitching about my love life, my love of baseball, and general stuff I have done recently.
  3. Love life? What's one of those?
  4. As much as I personally find myself 100% agreeing with your post, Jonner, I think that there's enough moderators and administrators in the board ( http://www.u2start.com/help/by-category/crew/ ) that can say if someone's pressence is appropiate or not Thanks.

  5. You have to admit that Jonner has got a point. You're all over the Politics topic (I think that a 90% of your posts are made in this topic - and I also believe that a 90% of the posts in this topic are yours!) and rarely say anything that's not politics-oriented.

    I told you this a long time ago... The politics topics, as all the other topics that are not U2/music related, are meant to be just a distraction - not anyone's main target in this board. We can't ban anyone for posting solely on a topic, but we can ask for moderation, as you can understand. When there's 6, 8 or 10 posts in a row made by you without a single response by anyone else, you seriously might have to reconsider what are you doing here. I am sure that there are PLENTY of politics forums on the internet where you can do a 90% of posts regarding US and world politics, and then a 10% of posts in their side-topics (about music for example). Think about it.
  6. Gotta admit I'm less confrontational about it than I was though.
  7. Reading you here is exactly the same drag though.
