Why do people hate Rochambau?

[Oswald Acted Alone, You Kook]

Why do you all hate him? He's just dull and boring sometimes and an obvious homosexual, but he's not a sociopath or troll.

Why are the dull and homosexual exempt from being trolling sociopaths?

Do you hate America?
Who is Jesus Christ to you?

[Oswald Acted Alone, You Kook]

Seriously, his horribleness is an informed attribute at this point.

No, he is all of these things.  And you can remove the "sometimes".

Here's a decent summary:

But he's been a worthless poster who wrecks the signal-to-noise ratio here ever since he started posting.  He's omnipresent and has nothing to say of any value whatsoever.  He posts inane one-word responses to complex posts, empty-quotes, bumps old threads, is the most obtuse person here, and seldom contributes more to a thread than "Yes."

Rochambeau contributes nothing and that would be okay if he just commented a lot.  The problem is that he's a chronic thread starter.  A hybrid of Catmusic and v0031.

Actually, the biggest problem of all with him is his disturbing need to ask personal questions about us without actually answering any about himself.  We know nothing about him yet he wants to know everything about us.  That's a perverted parasite not a poster.

You must be logged in to read this quote.

So yes, the 200 utterly useless posts and equally vacuous new threads each day was one thing, the creepily non-human line of questioning about human sexuality was another.  His reporting the same not-very-offensive post 34 times was a fun episode too.  There are just too many facets to explain why he is among the worst posters in this forum's history.

Oh, and how could I forget:

I want a Kazakhstan avatar and a Nigeria avatar. Also a Brazil avatar and South Africa avatar while you're at it.

Could we please have a Kazakhstan avatar?

In addition for Kazakhstan, one for Russia would be nice.

Let's just say that if there *was* a Norwegian Kazakhstan avatar, I'd swear a pledge to wear it for at least three months.

This is my pledge.

I want a Kazakhstan avatar, please.

And finally, a PM forwarded directly to me:

Hey [name redacted],

I was wondering if you could please do me a huge favor and ask Joe Republic to make a Kazakhstan avatar. Don't tell him I told you to ask him, though. If you're unable to do that, that's OK. Thank you very much. Sincerely,

Rochambeau.

I think Joe has put it better than anyone else could.

Each time I read a Roch post I think "what the hell are you in this forum for ?".

I don't really get the hate myself - he's not really doing any harm.  Really he seems like the woobie at this point.

[Oswald Acted Alone, You Kook]

He said he's going to clean himself up.

[King]

He said he's going to clean himself up.

He isn't a drug addict.  I don't see how cleaning up can give oneself a clue.

[Phony Moderate]

I remember an occasion when he told me to "Stop Spamming!!!!" after I posted two relatively legitimate threads in the 2012 board.

[Oswald Acted Alone, You Kook]

Is he banned?

[Countess Anya of the North Parish]

Ever here of the ignore button? It is such a nice gift.

[opebo]

Prudery, penis-envy (or rather, balls-envy), and just general sour-pussery.

They just hate Whales!
