I know, I know. Alfred Maddenstein isn't worth the energy I'm spending to type this. And he's just an old troll who I shouldn't care about.
But in Message 232 he writes:

In checking the moderator guidelines, I see no indication that some rules are much more important than others. Then disagree with them and quit participating.
if actual discussions are desired by the moderation. We're not losing any "actual discussions" if we comply with admin's requests on this particular matter. Nonscientific ridiculousness has no place in the Scientific Forums. Basically: Shut up, marc.

Two features that may be useful for this board are the ability to totally block posts from a particular poster, or to selectively block a particular thread--to make either of them "as if they never happened." I can already do that. I don't read posts from some posters and I don't open threads that I don't want to see.
I can think of some practical applications for these features... Blinding yourself so that you don't have to resist temptation? Don't get me wrong: blocking features are nice to have.

I may be over-reacting, but this really rubbed me the wrong way.
Message 154 quote: This is some mutha-fucking click-bait right here. The author has become an advertisement. It is even complete with the "you won't believe X!" that you see all over Facebook's click-bait. It's already a violation of the bare link rule, but this type of post in particular needs to never become a thing here. JonF, you have become an ad. You should have just made you point and you should have just told us how much she wants. You should not bait us into clicking on your link, that is some serious bullshit right there. Your post was bad, and you should feel bad. And you should promise to not be an ad anymore.

I didn't call the article an ad, I called JonF an ad. And of course I didn't click on the link. The reason it pissed me off is because the post was click-bait. It had nothing to with the content of the article, ya dingus.

Sorry you didn't like it. It was posted in many mainstream places, and a quick Google would confirm it. Your Message 154 was posted in many mainstream places? The message you submitted here, and not the article you linked to, is what I'm complaining about. The message you submitted was a click-bait ad and has no place here.

The story was posted in many places. It's a true story. I saw no evidence of issues with the link I posted. I'm not talking about the story that you linked to, I'm talking about the message that you posted here at EvC: Message 154 The issue is that your Message 154 is click-bait. Here it is again (in its entirety):
One of the occupiers is suing the gummint for literally being a tool of Satan. And much, much more. Of course no Federal judge or lawyer is empowered to hear the case. You will not believe the damages she wants!
Oregon militant accuses feds of committing ‘works of the devil' From wiki:
quote: You even copied the click-bait style of Facebook with your "You will not believe the damages she wants!". I'd just hate to see this place get all shitty like Facebook, and we should all hold ourselves to a quality of posts that is higher than that. Just don't be an ad and post click-bait. It's disgusting and this is not the place for that. As I said in my original complaint:

ABE: Whoops, not a discussion thread. Content hidden, peak to read.
Kiss My Ass, and Fuck you, I can write whatever I fucking want to their opposition, just because they are frustrated and losing a debate. Ha! That's a lie.
When Cats Eye states. Fuck you, kiss my Ass to me, it is not civil nor respectful... You don't deserve respect. And are you gonna cry all day, crybaby? Edited by New Cat's Eye, : ABE
