Whatever.
My point is that it reached a point where I don't really give a damn about who's wrong or right. The interference is enough to put me off an otherwise good discussion altogether.
That said, I'm not pretending to any kind of moral high ground here. Actually I do kind of feel bad complaining as I'm pretty much only a lurker now, and let's face it, if I really felt like it I would do some research and back RBJ up (or not ;)). I sort of envy his dedication, it's just sad that CCCTypes keep coming back like grasshoppers and make the average IQ of the place drop a few hundred percent every time they open their retarded mouth.
Bottom line is, RBJ, CCCtoad is trolling you, big time. We know you're smart and know your shit. We know he's the opposite. You can't persuade trolls. You just feed them and that's how they thrive. I'm not taking any of his posts seriously, and I thought TTLGers were a smart enough bunch to do the same without your help. That's why I'm on the "Cut the crap, and be done with it" crowd.

Yes, so let's call out the guy who is actually willing to stand up to the mouthbreather and hoist that average IQ back up there :confused:
RBJ realizes that CCToad is nothing more than a troll, but he tirelessly counters his idiocy so that nobody else gets swept along by the stupid.

Incidentally, judging by the prevailing mood, I must be the only person who doesn't find the interminable RBJ/Toad face-offs to be remotely tedious. I fucking live for that shit, man, it's awesome entertainment.

Please... It's not like everybody is going to turn into CCCToad disciples if RBJ weren't here to protect us.
The root of the problem here is that CCCToad posts way too fucking much. Really dude, you don't have to be at the center of every thread. I count myself among the people who find it annoying, particularly in any thread that touches politics, American culture, or economics where it seems like every other post is his - even if RBJ isn't participating. Thing is, I don't really care if his views differ from mine or he posts conspiracy theories and shit... as long as I'm not subjected to a constant barrage of it.
Having reached a higher state of annoyed than the rest of us, I suspect RBJ started going after CCCToad hoping he could drive him out of the forum. If so, that clearly hasn't worked. I think CCCToad is firmly addicted to this place now and all the thread carnage makes me hesitant to even click on the CommChat link to see what's new.
I'd be happy if they stop responding to each other's posts, but in addition I'd encourage CCCToad to find another forum to feed his politics habit and become a "normal" contributor here, if such a thing exists.

I second that. CCCToad needs to branch out, and I know (
http://www.rationalskepticism.org/) just the place (the politics and current affairs forum is near the bottom).

Also there is laissez's faire and failing that, helldump. Okay.

Oh, thanks a lot. Why not just compare me to Hitler instead.
You're a rubbish painter compared to Adolf, too.

RBJ isn't feeding a troll. He's stuffing cake down the troll's throat until it explodes.

Ya know, Rug Burn and CCCToad aren't the only ones with "ignore" buttons. If one or both of these niggaz ruins your day unduly, you can silence them yourself. Far as I know, Admins (and probably Mods) are the only people who CAN'T ignore a member in such a way.
Honestly, I don't know what anyone wants me to do about this incessant noise. Well, I know that RBJ is determined to persuade me to change his arch-nemesis' name to "Massengil" even just for a little while. More realistically, I'm thinking of shutting one or both of them out of CommChat. SluggsTrain styles. And it would probably be CCCToad because a) he's usually the one who is wrong, and b) he would have more fun than RBJ in the other boards.
I don't want to have to do anything like that, but for fuck's sake. Why don't you all just ignore either of them and have a nice day.
And Nicker, this was a stupid fucking idea for a thread.
