Will you take "The Pledge"?

BryanUT - 24 Sep 2008 00:20 GMT Over in AMS there was/is a poster that was/is considered to be a bit, to put it politely, "whacked".
Then he went over the top and started threatening lawsuits. At that point many of us took "the pledge". And thus all his posts were just ignored, not kill filed, just ignored. Conservatives, Liberals, Harley riders, Duc riders, many of us put aside our differences and took the pledge.
There are relapses, but for the most part the pledge has been kept.
A poster here in reeky crossed the line of acceptable behavior, he has kicked a well respected man while he was down. [1]
Will you take the pledge to ignore the pissant non-rider? [2]
[1] further explanation should not be necessary. [2] we can get back to our internal flame wars amongst real riders.

I don't morph ( except in the RARE case, as a few years ago, when some a.shole decided to flood-forge me all over the place, thus I ended up with the variation I use ever since then ), because I respect everyone's right to not have to read my bullshit if they don't want to.

The person being shunned is not prohibited from posting. Merely (most of) the rest of the community decides to not listen. I've seen this applied in other newsgroups, especially to hysterical one-issue posters who thrive on attention. You don't have to participate in the shunning, but at the risk of ending up as one who contributes to the reasons for it.

Sorry about the one liner. I owe you better.
I should trust more in group dynamics, but something about Bryan... This isn't the first time I've reacted "violently" to his remarks. Pompous almost sums it up, but I still can't quite put my finger on just what it is. I didn't even know I had a button wired that way.
The tempest in a teapot was P's comment -- singular -- about a certain Jag and antique bike collection. That's hardly a cause for censureship, certainly less so than calling on others to join sides in a strictly personal disagreement. The hoped for result is to silence the voice, or at least render it irrelevant. If that's not censorship, I don't what it means to censor.
I'll stand by my "pompous," and raise it a "petty". <nods> I think that sums it up. Thanks for listening.

Easy one: to shun someone is to simply stop listening -and replying- to his rants. To censor him is to not allow him to post those rants in the first place.
Since this is an unmoderated newsgroup, we don't have the power -not should we- to censor him, but shunning is a tradition that goes way back before the advent of newsgroups, and you even proposed a mini- version of it yourself not long ago when you suggested that you and I agree to plonk each other.

------- Yup. Self moderation works, emphasis on self. Who can object to that?
Yep, also, to the unmoderated group. And therein is the "problem". How do you censor an unmoderated group, short of defacing it by cancelling messages? When stuffing his literal fingers into his literal ears, if he even tried, didn't work; when logical discourse showed him less well equipped; and when outright flamage and taunting fails, where does he turn? Does he look to himself and maybe pick his game elsewhere? No, Bryan picked up his cellphone and appealed to the authorities -- us, in this case -- to settle his dispute. It's the cry of the weak willed, weak minded, and self-righteous. Ultimately, it's not far at all from the thinking that polarized us so strongly on the cigarette missile incident.
Was he looking for moral support on a matter of importance? No. Simply, P gets under his skin, apparently in much the same way Bryan's sniveling gets under mine. In my mind, it comes down to this: the rightness of your position doesn't matter when you can fetch your big brother to come kick some butts. It's the gangsta mentality, and I won't brook it.
Would it matter if I agreed even the slightest with his position? You already know the answer to that. How much prompting do *you* need to speak your mind?
So, what's the point in asking for a group wide boycott if not to censor? And I do mean censor, not just censure. I can't find one.
Bob Myers - 24 Sep 2008 22:33 GMT > So, what's the point in asking for a group wide boycott if not to censor? > And I do mean censor, not just censure. I can't find one. Obviously, to encourage a change in behavior. And as has already been mentioned, it can't possibly be "censorship" unless you have some way to prevent someone from speaking their mind. It's just a reminder that none of the rest of us HAVE to listen, or to encourage certain behaviors by responding to them.

All of that said my feelings about cross posting are on record and having Troy The Welsher offer up his support really isn't helping his cause much.

In between all the spam, off topic nonsense and Henry not getting laid anymore ( thereby returning with HIS nonsense to contribute to the general noise level) , I missed a good "kicking a man while he whined alot" fest?

I haven't paid any attention to him in about 3 months, maybe a bit more. Why should I anyway? Nasty, mean-spirited, and he doesn't ride.
Case closed, IMO.
St. John Smythe - 24 Sep 2008 12:59 GMT > Will you take the pledge to ignore the pissant non-rider? [2] Well...yes and no. I'll continue as I've already been doing -- ignoring his wacked-out posts but not necessarily the sane ones, just by way of positive reinforcement.
In other words, ignore the posts, not the poster.

Outta curiosity , how fast have you had yours ? Da book said that it topped out at 110-120 , but I had mine up to 130+ one night coming up the San Diego Freeway . Tucked hard into the tank , I wuz !! And I'm not above issuing an expletive or two myself , I just wanted to tweak the non-ridin' pussybitch's nose a bit . sh.t , we got Nathan W. Collier over at RMH , I'd trade him for .p any day . At least .p can be funny from time to time . Gnat is just plain pathetic vitriol . Care for some of this popcorn ? I made plenty ...

Well , one CB and a coupla partly-to-mostly disassembled parts bikes . It'd run if I gave it a little attention , but we got two that run , and I'm the only one that rides ... Helluva difference between a Ninja (the baby one , EX 250) and a 700+ pound touring bike !

> Helluva difference between a Ninja (the baby one , EX 250) and a 700+ pound > touring bike ! lol, tell me about it my first two were a Titan and a Jawa Trail 90. BIG difference. Bigger difference than between a LS650 and a GL1000 (current ride) I've done distance on the Titan and the GL1000 and felt little difference. Not even the annoying buzz many reported on teh Titan...well I didn't find it annoying anywho. -- Keith

Gnat is just plain pathetic vitriol . Yeah, .p is opinionated and cutting in his remarks but, really, that can be applied to a lot of people here.
I don't follow much of the arguments he gets involved in, but it appears to me that:
1. They're usually on political subjects 2. He does provide facts to back up his points (and they're often ones that wouldn't otherwise be heard in this overwhelmingly liberal setting)
As for him being a former (but not current) motorcyclist... Well, if some people want to deluge this *international*, *motorcycle* newsgroup with American political debates, I don't see why being a currently-riding motorcyclist is suddenly so crucial. Quite honestly, we don't exactly have high standards here anyway.
There's way worse actors here than .p. But that's just my opinion.
