[Discussion] Custom title for Camel

Post by Joe »

In light of his behavior in this thread, I recommend that he be given the title Tobacco Junkie, and I recommend that an OT mod HOS the thread.

No, he'll just revel in it. Best to ignore such people.

I recommend "Trash Chimp" over "Tobacco Junkie".

I hate people who just throw their butts on the ground. I swear, the grassy areas of my school, particularly along the paths are full of cigarette butts because assholes who can't be arsed to throw their ends away. I don't care if people smoke, but not even being unapologetic about rampant littering pisses me off.

EDIT: However, it occurs to me that he may just be a person on the boards trolling. After all, he's picked the name Camel, has a cigarette logo as an avatar and nothing else, and seems to be deliberately picking the worst, most unapologetic things to say in order to rile people up. That smells funny, and I don't mean like tobacco.

EDIT PART 2 (Electric Boogaloo): As I noticed after the fact and Oni Koneko Damien pointed out to me, his join date is actually from Nov. of 2005. So he didn't make the account to troll Superman's thread specifically. However, it still smells trollish to me that his entire posting history is confined to two threads and the smoking thing is one of them.

Yeah, I'm inclined to agree. Ten posts on the board, he's just looking for attention.

The fact he seems to be trolling immediately struck me as well.

Perhaps it would be clearer to say his entire posting history is one post in another thread six months ago, and nine here.
A Government founded upon justice, and recognizing the equal rights of all men; claiming higher authority for existence, or sanction for its laws, that nature, reason, and the regularly ascertained will of the people; steadily refusing to put its sword and purse in the service of any religious creed or family is a standing offense to most of the Governments of the world, and to some narrow and bigoted people among ourselves.

You do ban them though, if they don't shape up.

Why give this pissant a title?

He's contributed shit so far, and really the thought is if this all he's given, either wait and see if he shows any sign...or ban the worthless fuck.
