We can thank Hog for getting rid of some of the more annoying bots like Joachim.

I think banning hog upsets the clinic ecosystem though. Just look at it now.

We need hog to keep the bot population in check.

You certainly do with your limited vocabulary.
More bots in there than actual bots.

What kind of personal attack did Foxxy do?...

I was reading his posts, switch page to find out he had just been banned.

Since the main one has been deleted probably shouldn't post it again in public, but I can PM you.

Dunno. At a quick glance, I only count 21. :p


The earliest one is perhaps my favorite.

Chalk another one up to the Master of Mischief I suspect.

Just remember: Never make your attacks personal, just address them to your target group. Those remain perfectly fine.
Cheaper by the dozen, so to speak.

I'm sure if Foxxy had addressed all female members on this forum he'd have gotten a ban too.

Impossible. All new posters are unique and calling someone a suckpuppet is the biggest sin on cyclingnews.

Well you do rather adopt a scattergun of accusing absolutely everybody you disagree with of being Jochim..... Apart from Spud who you accuse of being the much-missed Martin.......your hit rate isn't that good considering how many times you make the accusation

So......you dropped the J bomb on Davey.......but were you actually right this time?

as far as I can see sceptic (and hog) are correct most of the times.

Just like me and Netserk can identify airstream after just 1 post

It has nothing to do with me disagreeing with them.

The reason why I am never wrong is because they are very easy to spot.

If someone appears out of nowhere and starts posting aggressively in the sky threads (and only there), while not providing anything worthwile of their own, then you can be 99% sure it is some banned trollbot.

What I don't get is why it hurts your feelings that I call out these sockpuppets.
 
It doesn't hurt my feelings at all.....I have just two thoughts about it......first that I find it strange that you are so keen to act as a self-appointed Himmler.....seems a weird thing to want to be........you'll counter that by claiming that the alledged trolls harm the forum and yet your posting is hardly illustrious and consists almost entirely of baits

Secondly I think the situation with martin is typical....he is now being dehumanised by people like The Hitch as a "banned troll"......reminds me of stalinism.......and yet he was perma banned for posting under a new identity whilst banned.

Whatever you may think of him doing that it is no reflection on the quality of his post history, which was excellent.......you may have disagreed with it butbhe presently lucid and cogent arguments........he got banned because he got fed up with the behaviour of people like you.......people who, on any other forum, would be regarded as the real trolls

You know it....I know it.

You pick and choose who you 'out'........since you consider yourself Witchfinder General why were you so silent on Hogs sockpuppet 'horsinabout'?

Don't try and claim it wasn't the hog, because you know very well it was.......I wouldn't mind what you do so much but for the fact that it is all done in bad faith

Sorry Flo, I didn't realise until later that you were the person under attack.
I'd assumed it had been the usual suspect.;)

Funny how sure you are about horsinabout given your own history.

Are you reffering to that mistake you made when you banned me for being a sockpuppet....then unbanned me when you realised you didn't know what you were doing? :D

Yes....horsinabout was pretty obvious.....not to Sceptic though.....can't think why not :rolleyes:

Mark. I can't take you seriously if you are going to compare me to a Nazi.

And you are definitely trolling if you don't think vickers was a troll.
