agreed. i've seen posts and requests made on this forum that have made me do anything from vomit uncontrollably to stabbing unborn babies through their mother's abdomens to stop them entering a society that's heading this way.

feck me, over 1,000 posts in this thread now.Or when people are repeatedly making personal comments about someone? There's a joke and then there's going a little too far... and then there's repeating jokes others have already made to join a bandwagon and get yourself a few laughs mate. I don't know, just doesn't seem fitting. This forum has created some really great things at times, but equally at other times it can go way overboard.
I'm not sure you even realize how funny that statement is in the context of this thread

Er, I think that's the point.
You really are a bore sometimes. Ok, all the time.
Don't think you quite "get" the internet.
@Damien can you change the label on the +Quote button to +Rossi?
Am I too late to compare .rossi to Hitler or has that been done already?

I really do
I get the humour of it all, but personally just feel that atleast it's at risk of going too far here, if it hasn't already.
Now that would be both funny and weird. Can you imagine the reaction of people who have not read this thread?
Oh I know. I was just making a point that basically anyone can do what he's done, not just members of this forum.
If it was a school yards you would have still had the sh#t ripped out of ya. It's just the way it works.
If the worst I had ever been called was a bit weird I'd be laughing. Believe me I've called much worse than that by my mates and laughed about it with everybody else.

Anyone who spends years justifying his own existence through the use of green smilies and post likes deserves more than a days worth of bashing. He's everything he hates about music, and needs to be reminded constantly after boring us with constant Ed Sheeran and Status Quo remarks for the last 3 years.
If you think it's at a risk of going to far, then you really don't understand the mentality of this place.I really do

I've been around here long enough and been at the rough end of it enough to know full well what it's like
Then loosen up and join the hunt. Someone plagiarised across several forums, from several posters on what seems like a very consistent basis. Just to gain some sort of internet reputation.I've been around here long enough and been at the rough end of it enough to know full well what it's like
He's been mocked for it , and rightly so.
Not sure what you lot want from the kid, and I assume he's a kid. If he's a grown man, he's a got a completely different set of issues he can deal with himself.
So he copied a few posts to appear witty and contribute more. There's a desire to be appreciated or liked that led to it happening in the first place. Suffice to say he's learnt the hard way that his way was wrong, at least online.
By all means, take his case, let him not forget it for a bit if you want. But a fan forum is the one place he would've felt comfortable interacting in, with more people who think like him on it. Alienating him isn't the answer to anything.

He did end up getting a reputation to be fair.
What is this thread if not making people responible for their posts?
Unless he turns out to be a City fan, in which case, you lot can just hang him.
He's in his mid 20s I think.
Yeah i think he is pretty young - this thread is an important life lesson. Be yourself.

Well played Sir.

Think the way you've described it as a 'hunt' kind of makes my point a little more valid
The guy has acted a bit weirdly, been found out and had his time in the limelight. Knowing the caf, it'll progress from here.
Ok, calling it a hunt was a little over the top. But I don't really mean anything by it. No one is really offending him or anything, it's just a bit of chastising. I think it's kinda run its course though now.Think the way you've described it as a 'hunt' kind of makes my point a little more valid

Nope. If he'd sucked it up it would have been over in no time, like @Orc. Instead he denied it further (that he copied from the other site here) and then climbed onto his high horse once people called him 'weird' - which, apparently, is too far.
What are you expecting to happen from here? All he's been called is weird and you are wondering if it's gone too farThink the way you've described it as a 'hunt' kind of makes my point a little more valid

Stop tagging me in this thread, goddamnit!
Quite obviously I have my own reasons for stepping up here and accepting all the comments I've been getting for going against the majority, but I'd rather not air them 'publicly'
I just have a feeling that some/certain people need to show more foresight.
Agreed, it's his reaction that has made people keep poking fun.
Agreed. People keep going if they get a reaction.
he posted 50 odd times all through out the night
After reading through it all I dont think he appears comfortable at all with this. Yeah he probably dug himself deeper but feck it, this whole ganging up shite is a load of bollox
kill the thread mods
People shouldn't get so sensitive about the Internet...especially about such tame stuff like 'weird'
Think you are overreacting
Is he 26, or is somebody else in a forum far far away 26. That's the question.
Yeah, he definitely doesn't seem comfortable with it, which is why I haven't really got involved. But surely he should've been able to tell that if took the pisstaking in the right manner instead of saying it's bullying that people would have let it go.
The real victim here is that other forum...they've probably lost one of their most funny and witty posters now
Let it go guys. He's clearly affected by it despite his nonchalant responses when he entered the thread.
Let's not become Twitter and turn this into a witch hunt. We've all had our fun.
