What I'd really like is a smart ignore feature that hides from my forum experience any mention of BK's existence. That way, I wouldn't even see posts that mentioned BK, let alone quoted him. I don't even want to know that there are ignored posts I'm missing; I want a seamless forum that exists in an alternate, BK-free universe a la The City and the City or The Quantum Thief.

Okay, who actually responds to BK besides Ken and Molly? I can't think of anybody else who does it. Then again, there's like a hundred people on here.
EDIT: I should add that the number of people ignoring BK really has gone up in the past few years. It's just a few diehards in need of correction now.Last edited by Elok; December 31, 2014, 13:22.

I sometimes just can't help myself.
Under the excuse of "All It Takes for Evil to Triumph Is for a Good Man to Do Nothing." I just break down and call him out on his BS and hatred.
I don't necessarily consider myself that Good of a Man, but I need to feel that I'm not as bad as BK.
Using religion to justify hatred has been responsible for the persecution of billions throughout history.
And BK has it down to a science. He's as bad as the Islamic Fundies that he claims to hate.It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

Originally posted by Elok View PostAlso, I take this up with you, Ken, and not him, because in my experience, you are receptive to logic. He is Logic-Resistant Arse Inglorious. It's no good hoping to convince him to mend his ways. But if you ignore him, it'll be basically just Molly still paying attention to him.
I do sympathize with Mings point btw, but for me it's a principle thing. If he's openly allowed to post here then this place is associated with the things he posts. Elok, you say 'we'll deal with new posters when they arrive', but no you won't. You won't get the opportunity to, because they'll see what he's posting and think this is a place they don't want to be.

He's banned for now. If he's half-the troll you think he is, feeding him like this is wasteful. Wait a few months before making endless I-hate-BK posts. Whinging about him now only shows how much you miss him.I make no bones about my moral support for [terrorist] organizations. - chegitz guevara

It's just too easy to create DL's faster than they can be tracked down and banned. It only causes more disruption to the site. Why should we have to play whack a mole.I make no bones about my moral support for [terrorist] organizations. - chegitz guevara

My god, Ben has yall wraPPed around his little trolling finger.
For the record Ben has never Bothered me, tried to troll me, or said any hateful things to me. PerhaPs I'm in the minority, I don't know. I must admit the Asher/Ben wars of years Past was very funny to read, and I do get a chucKle every now and then when he trolls one of you. You do it to yourselves.
You ALLOW yourselves to get mad. All you have to do is Pat him on the head and say "That's nice Ben." and move on.
JeePers it's like you all ENJOY the Ben drama. Last time he was Banned you just rePlaced him with AlBert SPeer. Get over it.The Wizard of AAHZ

Again, we really can't stop somebody from posting IF THEY WANT TOKeep on Civin'
