Would it not help the site if we closed all threads where Shambles simply repeats himself over and over in a nonsensical fashion? Also is it possible to delete any post which is nothing but cut and paste bullshit already posted? This would include the cut and pastes of the cut and pastes of cut and pastes.

If you gurgitate more than once, are you regurgitating?

And what the Hell is gurgitating?

Oh good - yet another one! Atta boy Spaw! Me too!

There is no need to impose closure - as threads would appear to now be able to spontaneously close themselves.

Of course those that feel compelled to open and post again and again to threads they state they find repetitious and boring - could just ignore them........? Or get some professional help?

The above thread of Susan's was closed - but Amos - you don't really expect the originator of this thread to suffer any imposed editing action - do you?

Amos says -
I suggest, with all due respect, that this thread be deleted.

I suggest , with all due respect and despite the example that our forum is being set - that all posters try to resist the temptation to post publicly - only to pass their personal judgement upon any fellow poster or to post and request that any imposition to be made upon the contributions of others?

For what others choose to post is none of anyone else's business. The only real control that posters have or should have on our forum - is over their own posts and to try and ensure that their words (and the words of fellow posters - remain as posted (wherever possible).

Until our forum finally faces these facts and all postera are seen to receive equal treatment - peace is never likely to break out. Perhaps some posters do not want peace to break out on our forum?

And since so many post without reading all the posts and read only the first and last ones, often particular gems of crappola are missed. I want to help correct that as I know Sham would approve.

I'm sorry, but I can't see why we need yet another thread on this same subject. The usual practice is to continue ongoing subjects. If you really want to talk about closing threads or about Shambles complaining about closing threads, this thread (click) was already in existence and active.
