I really doubt that's the case. And it seems like many of those who don't agree are posting so ******edly about it that they should be disregarded anyway. Ironically your post fits into that category since you know it's hyperbole. Or maybe you don't, in which case that's bad news for you.

However, if I am wrong and Jetto is in fact determined to be beloved by an overwhelming majority and his posting style is in fact adored by many then I will stand corrected, and adjust accordingly.

Seems like nothing more than Clark and tuq personally disliking Jetto's posting and wanting to get rid of him. Most of the forum likes him so why make such a big deal about it?

If we are going to start banning people that post in threads we like, aren't all that insightful, and detract from our overall posting experience, I request that the following people be banned:

agdci
ColeW
SchererBoy
EYESCREW
vixticator
nath
STA654
goofyballer
aejones
capone0
TomCollins
all the college basketball posters
tercet

Thanks in advance. I'll PM triumph to make sure this list is okay with him.

Jetto seems to regularly post in NVG. That's a ton of pain to go through just for the sake of a gimmick.

Are you extrapolating Jetto's five or six defenders ITT into "most of the forum likes him" or is there other evidence to support your conclusion?

er, I mean, show your work.

There are much more than 5-6 people who praise Jetto's posting. A lot of people like it, pay attention. I mean here's what one of his haters just said ffs.

Well, from memory it's also pretty clear that JackofArcades and tarheeljks both have ongoing issues with him. Along with Triumph they are among the forum's best posters, which means their opinion carries a lot of weight.

I don't think JOA or tarheel would advocate banning Jetto for no reason. It's pretty easy to deal with posting you dislike without banning the person. Nothing he does disrupts any discussion or breaks any rules (more than like dozens of other posters crappy posting). This would set a pretty horrendous precedent. Like mjw pointed out, if you ban Jetto, why stop there? There are much worse and disruptive posters than him.

So banning one poster because good posters have a problem with him is okay - but asking the same of other [even worse] posters because good posters have a problem with them is stupid? Got it.

So how about listing some of them? I do pay attention to this thread and there are about 5-6 people who have come to his defense in this thread. Which is what I said. I asked you to show your work and you couldn't even be bothered to read what I wrote. Typical BS. You could at least tell me where to look for Jetto praise. I don't read every thread in this forum and don't hang out on skype.

And that's hardly effusive praise of Jetto by a hater.

This does appear to be their position.

Huh?

TuT says "well it looks like only two people don't like Jetto so what's the problem?"

I point out that it's hyperbole and cite other examples to refute his point.

You come along and say "well are these other people going to be banned too?"

WTF does that have to do with me refuting his obviously incorrect point?

Jetto seems too harmless to ban, he doesn't trainwreck threads enough to make his casualfan, captain obvious thing banworthy

Or am I still not understanding where you stand on the issue? For example, what makes Jetto banworthy and a turrible poster like agdci not?
