Then why offer the generalizations and stereotypes in the first place, Asher? Whether you intended it or not, I was not happy to see the general Mac user *insulted* because you, son, have a problem with *some* Mac users.
**sigh**

I have a problem with *most* Mac users, at least here.
And the purpose of the post was to generalize what was going on in the forum. In the future I will try to remember to place lots of * after words with qualifiers and legal bull**** below so as to not offend people who really have nothing better to do but be offended.

OHNOES SOMEBODY'S TRYING TO BE FUNNY IN MY THREAD OH WAIT I DIDN'T EVEN START THE THREAD BUT ANYWAYS MAN YOUR BATTLESTATIONS THIS WILL NOT STAND!
Last I checked, this is a public forum and as such, it's acceptable for people to make topical jokes and such in said public threads. If you want a discussion free from people making jokes here and there go find a private forum full of people who care about what you have to say.
ASHER: This forum should be closed because its not doing its purpose.
SOMEONE ELSE: I agree.
MING: Hmm....Ok, it's been dealt with.
AGATHON: OMFG HOW DARE YOU ASSER And Ming, your a REALLY REALLY bad moderator.
DRAKE: Yeah.
ASHER: Hahahaha! Coming from you.
MING: {And Ming, your a REALLY REALLY bad moderator.} Um...No Not really, sorry
AGATHON: I hate you Ming. And you too ASSer.
MING: Oh well
ASHER: This coming from you? HAHAHAHAHAHA!
GATEKEEPER: Wtf? I'm cool.
ASHER: Whatever.
DRAKE: You suck Asher.
ASHER: You suck.
AGATHON: Suck mine.
DRAKE: You suck Asher.
ASHER: You suck.
AGATHON: Suck mine.
DRAKE: You suck Asher.
ASHER: You suck.
AGATHON: Suck mine.
DRAKE: You suck Asher.
ASHER: You suck.
AGATHON: Suck mine.
DRAKE: You suck Asher.
ASHER: You suck.
AGATHON: Suck mine.

The reason OT material ended up being posted in the mac forum was because you cannot post mac related material in the OT without attracting Asher's bad behaviour. He wrecks threads by filling them up with crap that we don't want to read, despite being asked to stop.
Yeah, because gee, that ignore list is sooo damned hard to figure out. And even once you have passed that hurdle, someone else may actually quote a post by Asher, and then what are you to do? By god, you would have to manually ignore his post then!
You have my sincerest sympathies.

I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

Hey, I tried ignoring him, but then the dickhead went and ruined the Mac forum. How exactly am I supposed to deal with that? I guess I could put Ming on ignore, but that might not be the wisest course of action...
KH FOR OWNER! ASHER FOR CEO!! GUYNEMER FOR OT MOD!!!

Ignoring him is not a solution. Laugh at him. That helps.

It is not possible, too. Numerous people have already tried it.
I agree with the Mac people that it's pretty silly (and many will probably feel that that is a severe understatement) that Asher is the one to bring this up. After all, he's accussing the Mac people of spamming while for most of the threads that got closed, he was actually the biggest contributor. And I'm not even going into the way he handled the whole situation and the fact that his aversion from Macs is well-known (and he didn't exactly bother to hide it either).
However, when he's right, he's right. I checked out the history of the Mac forum: up until last June the Mac forum was indeed as it is supposed to be: mostly Civ-related discussions with very occassionaly a (more or less) off-topic thread. However, from July onwards, things quickly spun out of control and since then only about 20% off all discussions in the Mac forum was actually Civ-related. I think the Mac people too should be able to acknowledge that something went wrong in the last few months (for whatever reason(s)) and that it is only appropriate that the site's administration (in the form of Ming) took action now. This probably should have happened a bit sooner, but with a mod who retired ages ago without informing anyone I think this delay is understandable. It might be a bit painfull for some that it took someone like Asher to call for action, but this action would eventually have been taken anyway.
The current ('post-Asher') situation is (or should be) identical to the situation of 6 months ago, so in the big scheme of things, nothing has really changed...
