What should be done with Ted?

Nothing.

Permanent ban. He refuses to learn a damned thing about how to behave. He's had quite a few chances to learn, as well.
Fuck 'im.

No matter what Ted posts, it goes to the HOS, where he will be flamed continuosly, and his posts editied by the Horsemen.

As I've said before, making Ted the chewtoy would help the members let out steam, that they had been keeping inside them. It will also, hopefully, ameliorate some conflicts. If Ein and Shep, for instance, are both flaming Ted, then, hopefully, they won't have time to flame each other.

Have a very nice day.

Ted is clearly just a lying sociopathic son of a bitch that has many issues.

Ban him forever. He will not be missed by me, I can tell you.

If he has already been temp banned once, he doesn't need a second chance.

Seven-eighths of me want to let him back and watch his stupid arguments get torn to pieces, but one-eighth (my Irish bit) wants to hunt him down and gouge his eyes out with one of his own ribs. So, I'll compromise with myself, and recommedn a perm ban.

Post by **Gandalf** » 2003-06-18 09:38pm

I voted for custom- title, though after reading this thread I say permanent ban. Let him feel the sting of an sd.net-less existence.

Well, as long as you're not being swayed by your own anger

I think I've just not been around for most of Ted's misdeeds (Except for the Irish thing). So I've not seen all of it, I stand by my perm ban. My anger will show, in time.

Permban. He's not controlled himself despite one tempban already and the board probably excaberates his condition.

Post by **Coyote** » 2003-06-18 10:36pm

(yawn) Off with his head. He's had his chance and piddled it away; "fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me...."

And I am usually all about leniency and giving chances but I think Ted's a perpetual, irredeemable hoser now.

Kelly Antilles · Post by **Kelly Antilles** » 2003-06-18 11:21pm

Okay, how many chances are we going to give him? He has yet to show any improvement. He goes OUT OF HIS WAY to annoy people. This last was just the straw that broke the camel's back. Ban him permanently. The board will be better for it.

Howedar wrote:I'm not real big on banning a guy because his typical shit happened to offend a few important people on the board. It smacks of favoritism.

I believe I speak for the supermods when I say that we have never had anything but complaints from the board about Ted, and that his shit has not been isolated to a single group. It didn't offend a "few important people." In his time on this board, Ted has offended almost everyone. I would have to really reach to think of a single other person who has been on these boards as long as me and still considers Ted to be a worthy member.

Using Sheppard as an example for favoritism is fallacious. Sheppard is no one's favorite, and he managed to offend essentially the same cross section of these "important people" you speak of as Ted. But because his behavior is neither as virulent nor as non-contributive as Ted's, permanent banning has never been discussed for more a few moments. When compliance with the rules was demanded of him, when he was warned about his behavior, MKSheppard has generally heeded these warnings.

Ted did not do so, hence we have come to this thread. If you still think its favoritism, look at how the poll stands. 85% of those polled want him punished, 68% severely so. We are not playing favorites.

J · Post by J » 2003-06-18 11:57pm

I'm done with him. It's gotten to the point where he's just causing trouble and running his mouth all over the place. Not only that but to presume to speak for others including the mods on board rules and banning? Gimme a break, talk about the kid taking a power trip.

I've talked about this with my BF who's met Ted in real life on several occasions and even taking his real life problems into account it doesn't make a difference. Ted has issues, fine, but to use them as an excuse to crap up the message board is something I don't look kindly on, nevermind that 95% of his posts are pure garbage these days. In the end I think it comes down to the same thing with him as it did with RayCav, he will have to removed for his own good and the good of the board.

Anarchist Bunny · Post by **Anarchist Bunny** » 2003-06-19 01:10am

I usually ignore what he says and avoid posts by him so I really haven't notice his fall from grace, much like I missed RayCav's downfall.

But I think nothing for a day, unlock the "Ted's at it again" thread so I can post this:

Ted wrote:Thank God I've got no Irish in me at all.

Einie, would you mind putting some in him?

Damn, I wish I would have seen that thread earlier.

I wasn't referring to apparent favoritism WRT Shep. I was referring to the fact that Ted can call the Japanese "nips" and bash gays without apparent penalty, but if he offends the nationality of the mods he gets a temp (or perma) ban. Maybe I'm just suspicious and paranoid, but the timing seemed odd to me.

Knife · Post by **Knife** » 2003-06-19 01:59am

Actually, I have not heard much of him since his last temp ban so the Irish bit was something I had to go back and read after I saw the temp ban threat on Ted.

I have been here long enough to see Ted from the normal type ass hole to the super prick right before and durring the 'Week of Hell'. He has had numerous warning, various complaints, a temp ban before, and still the little prick wanders around picking fights.

Though on one hand, he is fun to hate, it is still disruptive for him to pull his little attension grabbing stunts everyother month. Fuck him, ban the kid.

Cal Wright · Post by **Cal Wright** » 2003-06-19 02:34am

Ban him. Permanananananananatly. Fucking kick his ass to the curb. Shit, he's worthless and his insults are pointless. He will NEVER get a fucking clue. I want Fred Flintstone in to da house, I want the cat outta da house. Yaba daba doo now.

brothersinarm · Post by **brothersinarm** » 2003-06-19 02:49am

Hmmm... He has 3000 odd posts. How in the world did he not get banned before? Did he just suddenly went postal and shot up the forum?

Enforcer Talen · Post by **Enforcer Talen** » 2003-06-19 04:09am

hm. I havent personally seen him go beyond obnoxious, so would have said nothing.

but I see a dozen people who could persuade me if they tried, and they say perm ban.

-goes with the crowd-

Tosho · Post by **Tosho** » 2003-06-19 04:40am

Perm ban.

Post by **Lagmonster** » 2003-06-19 08:29am

I've said it as a mod and I've said it as a regular Joe: Everyone gave him a chance to play nice. We don't have to say it twice.

Although he didn't do anything to me, personally (no one ever does anything to me, personally. I blame the menacing avatar.), I understand that he has ruined threads and moods by being an ass. Nobody wants to talk to an ass (unless you do, in which case I do not want to know about it).
