What are you trying to say here? A active Game account is required or your opinion on game mechanics or anything else is Null?

Following that train of thought whats next? A active account is required to post here at all?

lets sell out alittle more and just give some SOE guys Admin control, you know so we can finish the transition to EQ2 official forums 2.0

(Poll option 2 sounds retarded in the way it was phrased, but ill vote it anyway. Just because it goes against the Mob.)

I'm assuming this whole thing is based on PM's that LFG has gotten, as oppsed to being friends with this person or that person cause realistically if LFG didn't like someone the rational answer would be fuck you, you're banned. Who cares if it is fair or not, it's LFG's board.

I haven't read enough to know if this person is a spammer, and I make a habit to not feed the trolls unless I get some personal amusement out of it, so it is possible that my eyes just glaze over when I see some random characters strung together for the sake of just responding to something.

Those poll options are horribly worded, and incredibly biased. You might as well have made the choices:

- Loadoron deserves to be sanctioned because he makes LFG and his friends cry.
- I like to eat ice cream with my feet.

Well geez, I don't know about 2, and it sounds stupid and silly. I guess I'll vote one.

Which I didn't. I think LFG needs someone to check his posts for hypocrisy and/or stupidity before he's allowed to submit a post.

Lao's spam has definately cut down alot lately. He actually stays on topic and doesn't post nonsense "I <3 Faabio" bullshit quite as much as he used to. I won't vote on this poll, as, once again, the poll was made with wordy answers that tend to exclude certain viewpoints. A simple "Yes" or "No" would have sufficed, but instead LFG tried to be "clever" and thus will prevent many people from voting. I don't even like Lao, but with the two options in this poll, none of them quantify what I feel about him or LFG.

As I sit here listening to my most favourite copy of Brass Monkey by The Beastie Boys it brings to mind many eclectic views of what the 'term' spammer truly is defined as. While I could most certainly dive further into this subject I don't feel that it's important for the intended purpose of this thread. I will simply point out that Laodaron's posting isn't spamming, but neither is it trolling, it's sort of like Reese's Peanut butter Cups, it contains both elements but it can hardly be defined as one or the either (Laodaron got spam in my troll, and vise versa, etc etc).

As I've learned over the past year LFG is an extremely biased person who also has a rather insatiable appetite towards all things drama. It's his driving factor behind many things on this website, but because of his 'many years of higher education' he has fully grasped the ability to make it seem like he isn't involved (You can't fool the few of us who know your secret LFG, I am here to expose you for what you are).

This thread might as well be about your preference of underwear, because for LFG all is the same in his drama-whoring ways.

WTH is going on?
So now we're making polls about posters and whether they are spammer or trolls? I agree with the person who said this was an anti-popularity contest. Rather than a poll a simple Rate-A-Retard post would have sufficed and probably gotten more support instead I think this is not a good idea and is concerning. I like you sorta LFG but what is with all the polls lately? Too much voice from the people will end in not a majority wins but a squeaky wheel win.

If he's spamming in forums he's not supposed to ding him for it; which you did. If he's spamming where it's allowed then what's the deal? It's starting to feel like instead of the NGD being persecuted the new clique is getting persecuted. It's also starting to feell ike this site has lost it's luster and shine as a haven to say what you want or how you want and instead... it's ok to say as long as a select few think it's ok. Please tell me this view and feeling I am getting is wrong b/c after the last few days that's not how it feels.

I voted against Laodaron because I could!! Also because I thought it was total bullshit that he played the "Gaige and LFG are friends" card when he saw his name on the other thread. I haven't even mentioned anything about you to LFG at all Lao, in fact the only person I pm'd LFG about was Bitmap and her annoying cats. That shit is spam no matter how anyone looks at it, because there is a thread in the spam section specfically for cat pics. Anyways, onto my quote of Faabio...

If it took you over a year to learn that LFG is extremely biased and has an insatiable appetite for drama, you must have a learning disorder.

OF COURSE its the driving factor for the majority of shit on this website. This website lives and dies by drama, period. It has since its inception and it probably always will. True flame threads are nothing but drama. People read them for the same reasons they watch Jerry Springer; everyone likes a good train wreck. LFG would be shitty at running this website if he wasn't constantly trying to promote drama, period.

As for "extremely biased" I prefer to word it as LFG having an inability to see the gray in things. To LFG shit is black or white, period. There is no middle ground. He is like that about everything, from the most simple shit to the most complex shit. Its one of his more interesting personality traits, imho. I think the shit he does proves he isn't biased, because he doesn't always side with who you think he will, if he sides with anyone at all.

So there is no need to try to play the hero and expose LFG for what is pretty obvious. I doubt he'd even deny it.

Edit: I also must take this time to LOL at the people who were saying we were overreacting about the site taking a turn for the worse blah blah who are now saying... the same thing. Quit whining the site isn't... oh wait... they agree with you about this issue... NEVERMIND THIS SITE IS LOSING ITS LUSTER!

I only find myself fondly wishing that Crabbok and EL would've announced their return to EQ2 on the 18th of this month, on the year anniversary of my EL thread.

Also by ruin, you mean, making the site totally awesome and fighting evil doers, right?
