One of the most common traits of the on-line ****head is the absolute refusal to follow common social rules. For example, the ****head will use racist or sexist terms, will use inappropriate references to bodily functions, or will otherwise not respect the rules of society.

I don't think I'm the f***head here, but we certainly have some.

I have to nominate myself, only because I trolled the guy that patented the M15, and that is honestly the worst time to troll someone... I greatly regret it... FORGIVE ME PLZ!!!!

Typically, I dislike these stupid polls. But perhaps we can use this one to the GH community's advantage. How about a 10 day ban for the "winner" so they can reflect on their caustic behavior here?

iMav · « **Reply #11 on:** Fri, 31 December 2010, 16:01:04 »

So, we have the following nominated so far:

Microsoft Windows
ripster
msiegel
Computer-Lab in Basement
Pylon
iMav

(figured the, "if you post in this poll thread you are a troll" criteria was as good as any)

MW, I'd give it through the weekend and then setup the poll on Monday. We can have the winner in a 10-day timeout by next weekend.

msiegel · « **Reply #12 on:** Fri, 31 December 2010, 16:09:50 »

you're a good sport iMav

cheers, gentlemen!

I like iMav's idea. Brilliant. Almost as good as my dad's idea to start a bar called "The Gym". (wife: "Honey, where are you going?" husband: "To The Gym")

I'm nominating John Deer as a troll.

I think a better name for that bar would be "The Shoe Store".

That's hilarious, at least until the point where the beer gut starts showing and the wife signs you up for another gym that has exhibited better results and is so proud of you for trying(thus making you actually want to go to the gym.)

Seriously though, gyms are good - go.

Well, you never tried to get me banned nor did you persistently act like a jerk towards me after that. So you by no means deserve to be on the Spam Filter.

But seriously, the Spam Filter can greatly improve the forum experience. If people bother you, you don't have to read another of their posts again!

This 2011 doesn't start good ...

microsoft windows · « **Reply #21 on:** Fri, 31 December 2010, 18:12:12 »

Well, if people nominate more than 10 people I'll have to trim some names off the list when I make the poll. You can be first in line if you wish.

Computer-Lab in Basement · « **Reply #22 on:** Fri, 31 December 2010, 18:25:58 »

MW, I think you should let someone with a better reputation make the poll... Perhaps we can kindly ask iMav to create it, after all, this is his forum.

microsoft windows · « **Reply #23 on:** Fri, 31 December 2010, 18:27:55 »

Here are my nominations:

Kishy
Ripster
Microsoft Windows (Hey, this whole idea was trolling)
ItlnStln
Webwit
John Deer
Computer-Lab in Basement
EverythingIBM (He uses Windows 98)
Maclover

What I'm going to do is count who gets the most nominations and make a poll out of the top 10.

microsoft windows · « **Reply #24 on:** Fri, 31 December 2010, 19:12:51 »

I should make another poll on OCN about avatars. It'll determine how many people who have pictures of hot girls as their avatars really are hot females. I'm predicting the result will be around 0.6%.

microsoft windows · « **Reply #27 on:** Fri, 31 December 2010, 20:15:29 »

OK you all, here's my latest work on OCN. Enjoy!

And some more. This time, an Apple rumor.

How about we just skip to the bit where we ban MW... again.

iMav · « **Reply #34 on:** Sat, 01 January 2011, 09:20:45 »

webwit and john deer are not active accounts on geekhack. No reason to include these in the poll.

microsoft windows · « **Reply #35 on:** Sat, 01 January 2011, 10:02:10 »

OK, as of now, we got Kishy, Ripster, Microsoft Windows, ItlnStln, Webwit, Computer-Lab in Basement, EverythingIBM, iMav, Msiegel, and Maclover as the current top ten for the poll.

Don't call him a troll or he'll call good old Uncle Tony from the garbage company back in Italy (aka the mob).

Well you know that keyboards are just soo dramatic... That's why they started a forum about them.

Oqsy · « **Reply #41 on:** Sat, 01 January 2011, 17:23:01 »

Is this a thread where I can vent about all the online personalities from this forum that keep me up at night sobbing? I haven't slept much lately thanks to geekhack.drama

Also, I want a pony!

Wheres the poll? I vote for Ripster

microsoft windows · « **Reply #43 on:** Sat, 01 January 2011, 18:20:35 »

This thread's just for nominating people to be in the Troll Pole. I'll probably make the poll itself either tomorrow evening or on Monday.

keyboardlover · « **Reply #44 on:** Sat, 01 January 2011, 18:38:09 »

I would nominate Welly, but I think he either got banned or fell off a bridge. Or maybe he's getting some much needed therapy.

No one is currently banned here. (note, webwit asked for his account to be deleted...I simply disabled it to keep him associated with the content he has provided)

microsoft windows · « **Reply #46 on:** Sat, 01 January 2011, 18:44:34 »

I liked Welly. Without him I got no viable opponent for political discussions in the Off-Topic forum.

Multiple Nominations?

MS Windows
EIBM

on account of, well, nobody can be that idiotic, so they have to be trolls.

Quote from: Julle;271770

Is my current signature in compliance with the revised forum rules?

I never tried to get you banned, nor have I ever personally insulted you. There's a reason behind my signature. So why are you trying and stir up unrest in the community for no particular reason? If something about me bothers you, you can add me to your spam filter and you won't have to see my signature. You can call me a spammer, that's not that big of a deal. But saying that I go out of my way to constantly, personally insult other members is.

I had the "Spam Filter" in my signature for a good long while and then removed it and stopped ignoring Ripster and Kishy to see if they had gotten any better. Kishy still was rude to me, so I bashed him a few times and put him back on. Until he tries to make mends, he's staying there. And if you guys want to play "Signature Wars" and say worse things about me and spread them around the forum, you all can join him!

You see, the Ignore List is a good, useful tool. It makes a great spam filter. So if my signature bothers you guys, take its advice. Use the spam filter!

Oqsy · « **Reply #49 on:** Sat, 01 January 2011, 19:35:21 »

Is this the signature testing thread?
