So Eharding is basically a spam-poster at this point

[ssuperflash]

Posting three times in a row for no reason, responding to every single person in his threads, stifling the flow of any thread he posts in are all signs of this behavior.

[Antonio the Sixth]

Yeah, even if his views weren't so abject, he's becoming a nuisance that needs to be banned.

I assume that a person can reply to whatever post on their threads.

I have this view that EHarding might find crazy, but if you're pissing off a large number of people in a place you clearly want to spend most of your time, maybe it wouldn't hurt to try and adjust your behavior a little so you can get along better with everyone. I know I would.

[Green Line]

He's rude.

Sadly, it appears that there are many people in this world who derive pleasure from pissing off others, and they've found a perfect outlet for that on the internet.

Also in the White House.

Surprised nobody has found this out yet! All the signs are there.

-Nope. I'm E. Harding, and I've posted under this name on the Internet for years.

Look, folks, I understand 50 posts per day is a little excessive. So I'll try to keep it to under 35 from now on.

Good God, this is even worse than me in my early days here.

He's not a great poster, but no action should be taken unless he commits any actual offenses

[NOVA Green]

Personally, I haven't had any issues with Eharding in any of the threads that I have been involved in....

Granted, I can certainly understand that excessive posting can stifle the flow of free conversation if a handful of individuals are posting so frequently that "Threadjacking" runs amok, but hey there are many other individuals on the Forum who likely have a similarly high daily post count....

Maybe I'm not chilling on all the same threads as many of y'all, but certainly I haven't found anything extremely offensive in Ehardings posts, and actually in all my personal interactions on various threads has been an extremely civil individual, with whom I might fundamentally disagree on many items, but still has actually contributed positively to some of the debate & discussion in various ways.

Now--- whining in a public environment after posting comments that disparage my Irish-American background, as well as bagging on Mexican-Americans certainly appears to indicate the characteristics of an individual who appears to have perhaps existed for much of their lives in a small limited bubble, with limited comprehension of the political history and backgrounds of various immigrant populations to America over the past 150+ years, and additionally might have certain associated stereotypes involving many of our communities....

If we define "Spam" simply on the basis of post count, there will be multiple other individuals over the years guilty of that same "crime".....

If I were on the jury, I would vote to acquit eHarding on the charges of being a "Spam-Poster", as well as charges of being a "troll", maybe a misdemeanor slap on the wrist for charges of "excessive posting within your first X days on the Forum" I might find the defendant guilty, but would need to see a greater burden of proof on the prosecution to justify that charge.

^^Posting a lot and having disagreeable views aren't grounds for banning or being labeled a troll.

[Sir Mohamed]

I wouldn’t say a spammer, but a total Drumpf-hack of course. With, well, some bizarre views.

[Confused Democrat]

I like Eharding.

Sorry not sorry.

[JerryArkansas]

This is what is wrong with this forum.  Someone is spamming every thread he posts in, yet no one wants to get rid of him.

[Lief 🗽]

Why does he put a dash at the beginning of all his posts???

[Mr. Morden]

but hey there are many other individuals on the Forum who likely have a similarly high daily post count....

Actually, no.  He's posting more frequently than anyone else on the forum.

[publicunofficial]

Because he's Russian.

[Mr. Morden]

This man has 2000 posts within a month and a half of joining. That is absolutely mental, he has more posts at this point than typically active users who joined in 2015!

I just looked up the stats for Rochambeau.  He managed to outdo Eharding, with ~2600 posts in the same amount of time.  Rochambeau was eventually banned for spamming, but not until he had over 12,000 posts.

Fine, ssuperflash, I'll keep my replies in threads started by me to four per page or under. Again, I realize 50 posts per day is a bit excessive, which is why I'm trying to limit it to under 35.

Mr. Morden, what did he do to get banned for spamming?

Please answer my question, Erharding.

[Virginiá]

Please answer my question, Erharding.

He has said the dash is to indicate a response to a post, which really makes no sense because almost all his responses quote the text he is responding to, so it is entirely superfluous.

But that's not your biggest problem with him, is it? 

[Virginiá]

Of course not lol. I don't care much about his dashes - it's an odd quirk is all.
