Title: Just ban Optimus already
Post by: Shostakovich on May 29, 2018, 12:42:29 PM
Posts in same two threads, not to contribute, but to unload diarrhea over them
Regularly derails threads because he's a sensitive child
Doesn't know how to drop an issue
Does not recognize Dogmod's divine right of rule
Does not appreciate the multiple attempts by more patient members to explain what's going on

This guy has been ruining threads for a while and that's the only thing he contributes. At least Assimilate has good taste in movies, Etiolate wasn't always posting dead kids, etc. Unlike normal people, Optimus does not respond to normal conditioning where he adapts to the crowd or just leaves. Seems like he just wants to stay here and scream like a kid. Nobody likes him and it's making some threads unreadable half the time so please just ban him.

how many "Ban X Person" threads are we going to have before we learn our lesson?

Let things run their course. If Spergtimus gets under the dog or borksada's skin enough, they'll take care of him.

It takes effort though, man. It seems you can't put anyone on ignore until you've announced it to the whole forum at least twice, had a big flounce off and then secretly un-ignored just so you can check if that person is still talking about you.

Wayyyy easier to actual-ignore imho.

I sometimes get confused if this is some BCT discord where one whines to Bish about problematic posters in 2014 or The Bore. You can just ignore posters or not engage them. At least Etiolate posted his kiddy cache two times in a row.

I have not been here long so you guys do you but seems kinda contrasting to have a shitposting thread about weirdos and yet suddenly being an asshole is problematic.

I think Optimus is angry, tribal, misguided, and most importantly not very bright, but that also makes him an easy outlet for occasional mockery and joke materiel.

He’s like easy crowd work for a comedian.

I always assume certain posters are teenagers on here. Because Lord help them if they are grown ass adults going nuts over topics like marvel movies.

edit: Just to be clear I don't mean liking Marvel Movies. I mean arguing movie opinions like they are mathematic facts and then insulting people who don't share same opinion.

Reading Optimus’s rant, I really don’t get what is so hard about not saying that word?

We all live in a world of normative barriers, and it hasn’t brought on the free speech apocalypse. No one is making 900 word care posts about the free speech integrity of this message board being torn apart by being unable to call a person the N word. Because it just goes without saying that it’s not acceptable discourse in 2018.

There’s a whole bag of insults you can pull from to drive home how much you hate people that don’t think your Russia Today tweets and your flavor of the culture wars are very compelling, just leave the “distinguished mentally-challenged fellow” in the bag with the rest of the shit you have no problem keeping off limits. It’s not some vanguard blow by the thought police.

Or you can just type the word you wanted to use in the first place and not try to circumvent the filter to "stick it to the man" like a child. Everyone knows what Ted Danson stands for at this point, so what is the difference? What's the point of starting petulent little crusades?

I wish you guys would be more creative with your Optimus portmanteaus, I'm tired of seeing Floptimus and Sloptimus all the time. How about calling him things like Hop on Poptimus, or Peppermint Schnappstimus? There's really a lot you could be doing with a username like optimus, but everyone always seems to go for the low hanging fruit.

I say since he is apparently enough of a Transformers fan to pick that name(which should be a strike against him by default), we just change his name to the much more fitting Transformer, given his personality:

Quote
Repugnus

Then you have Repugnus, who doesn’t believe in stealth. Rather than use a vehicle or a telephone pole or a stupid plant as an alt-mode, he’s just a giant robot bug monster thing. He and the Monsterbots (really running out of names, aren’t we?) would be tasked to do unsavory missions, which matches Repugnus’ personality.

Repugnus takes pride in being unpleasant to everyone, even by Decepticon standards. Rather than ending up in the cool anti-hero platform like the Wreckers or Grimlock, he ends up being a parody of cool like Drift or Lobo. When it turns out that the Autobots imprisoned him, it’s hard to decide if it was because Repugnus finally went too far or they were just tired of his loud, tedious personality.

I honestly know little about Transformers, I just typed in "worst Transformers ever" thinking maybe one had a really shitty name and was amused that one of the consensus hated ones seemed to be the one that describes Optimus's personality and behavior to a tee.

But you see he finds common ground because he calls the media fake news....Because they report on his anti-union behavior, autonomous vehicle crashes, and incidents of employee unease.

...Fuck it, I honestly can’t even come up with a plausible rationalization for his logic on that one.
