Yes. He should be banished to the 2012 forum where his ilk belong, not an informative and generally hack-free until now forum.

Yes, of course. I think I was probably the first person to start ignoring him. He seems to have either gotten the hint or doesn't have anything else hackish to say, since he hasn't posted in a whole 24 hours.

He's an awful troll who only posts in the Political Geography forum. He never posts maps or offers any real insight into redistricting, he just complains about maps people draw, or more frequently complains about people not complaining about Democratic gerrymanders while of course coming up with excuses why Republican gerrymanders are different.

I might have you beat on that. I strongly recommend it to everyone.

Reminds me of Hamilton's socks actually, but maybe I'm just being paranoid.

Maybe I never heard of him because 2012 forum is a bad place I'm trying to avoid Grin

He doesn't bother me. But then this is merely just an internet forum. So we should of course hunt down where he lives, take him to trial, consider him guilty, and imprison him for 50 years. -nods- yup.

BSB is young. He's an intelligent poster who writes well. Yes, he has sharp elbows, and limited to close to non-existent diplomatic skills. He has not yet learned how to be firm, and make his points, without generating animus. That is an acquired skill, and at least in my case, took decades to master to the point I'm at now.

However, my preference is to work with this kind of poster, one with potential, and not an air brain, and help them fit in. I quite dislike gang banging such chaps. One thing I have learned on this splendid forum is just how cruel the young can be to each other.  Yes, I was once that way, but tend to forget how much an ahole I was when at the age of most here.

So, no, I don't have BSB on ignore, and hope that some at least will give him a long leash to try to learn some skills as to how to interact productively with other posters.

I doubt anything I have written above surprises the old timers, but I just feel the need to say it again.

Thanks for listening.

Yeah, now that you mention it he kind of strikes me as more of a CARLHAYDEN-type.

Extremely partisan, comes across as bitter, posts exclusively on the Demographics board.

If you don't read the PG&D board, consider yourself lucky.

Google BigSkyBob and the second result is an OKCupid profile for a guy who's 56 years old looking for long-term dating or casual sex. Maybe he's just sexually frustrated?

The guy has singlehandedly destroyed the Redistricting and Demographics subforum. He deserves to be banished to the same place that Stark, JewCon and all the others trolls have gone.

HEY!

I think I've become well mannered Wink

....and yes I did reveal myself on purpose! Cheesy

I was productive, so dont say I was trolling too much.

tbh, this time I didnt come back to troll. I came back to contribute. I was young and stupid when I first joined in 2009 and never seemed to get the "stupid troll" image off myself.

Of course I did come back and troll with a lot of fake accounts which was unacceptable.

One more thing: Tea Party Go Away Please!

I had my suspicions, especially when you said you were in "the part of Boston that Boston College is in."

(To explain to non-Massholes, Boston College isn't in Boston).

Yea. I got lazy with some of it.

I wasnt motivated to troll. Infact this account wasnt even my idea. I had given it away I was JC a couples times (see: Circumcision thread) and my support for Palin. How many northern republicans like Palin?

Oh well. I think this was my best attempt. (maybe OKUSA too)

Kinda late, but I couldn't agree more with that.
