Not aimed at anyone specifically, just a general feeling I get from looking around ALL the forums...

What is it with all theses "BAN HIM NOW!" posts?

What right do you have to say "I want him banned, he's annoying me!". Er, excuse me, but is it up to you? No.

What makes it ok for you to say "Ban him, he's annoying me"? I'm annoyed at these posts, so can I get you banned for annoying me?

But no doubt I anny some of you, so then I'd get banned.

Pretty soon there'd be no one left!

All I'm saying is, there is a REPORT THIS POST link, use that instead.

Please?

I reckon that there should be a reporting forum. you can see if anybody has reported you and you can then explain why you posted the offending post.

No names are mentioned and you're banned until you look at this forum and explain why!

Good idea or did u not understand me.

I remember when there was a misunderstanding about this link, that a few people thought that it was a button to recomend a post for consideration for the gad prize, that was funny.

Whats weird is the annoying topics tendancies to linger as people have arguments with the writer of the offending post and so it stays around longer.
Ignore it and it shall go away (not a universaly working piece of advice).

Anoying someone is always going to happen because we are human, we are all different, we have different likes and dislikes.
That's not a reason to get someone banned unless they are not playing by the rules, for example using uneceptable language and rude gestures.

Everyone should learn to get on even if you don't agree with what they are talking about, just tell em straight in a nice kinda way.

Yeah, the report post is there for a reason.

Mob cries for banning are a nuisance.

Care to explain it?

You'd have to see the movie to really understand. The tagline is: "They meet. They judge. They execute... All in the name of the law."
