I'm afraid I don't quite understand- I thought he had a major revelation several weeks ago and changed his ways and had become much more personable. I think I missed the final straw...but it must have been significant. Too bad, as I agree w/ others that PM'd him directly- very helpful and useful to me personally. Oh well, upward and onward!

Why does anyone feel intimidated from posting on an Internet forum? What do they say again the best way to stop bullying behavior? We're all adults here, there are other ways to deal with "trouble-makers" even without the moderator. Those who cry foul and yet continue to engage the offender are no better. We all have our own opinions, and if we get flamed, then we get flamed. Without differences, there can be no learning. We don't all have to have such delicate psyches.

If you go to a place you like to hang out, but someone else goes that never shuts the **** up. He/she argues just to argue, seriously offends you and is constantly inappropriate and there's nothing you can do about it but put in a complaint, you end up just leaving until the owner/manager realizes that this person needs to go 'cause they're bad for business. This happens after enough people complain, leave and DON'T COME BACK
This wasn't Ben's house, but he acted like it was and chased many people away who didn't have the time 'nor energy for his antics and did NOT wanna be offended.
All that said, I hope Ben comes back and dials himself down -- I feel bad over all of this.

I'm not challenging your feelings; just giving my take, that's all.

I would agree, except in this case, He so overwhelmed a discussion that the responses are overwhelming, and they are in many cases from contributers who I would not want to filter.
Yes if everyone who might be inclined to respond to the rubbish would put the individual on ignore this would work, but alas that is unlikely.
I also hope Ben comes back, but grown up and polite next time.

FWIW, ignore does blank out a user's posts, but you can still read their posts if they are quoted by others. Plus, it disturbs the flow of a thread if there a bunch of ignored posts in there. I say we all just dial it back a notch and focus our emotions on the cars. We all probably have to deal with enough crap in our daily lives. Rennlist should be a respite...even if you disagree with certain posts.
