I agree we should wait at least a few weeks before considering my proposals. Others may step into Paul's shoes, so to speak, but hopefully not.

BTW, I was amazed at the "turnout" on this vote. I recognized some names from the Intel thread that very rarely post here, but you allowed their votes to count. No one can complain that the vote was unfair.

Mani, Re: Paul has been the main (and perhaps only) offender to most of the new rules you proposed.

Paul Engel is a user name. They are free. He will be back in a week with a new one if he's not already.

All the ban does is make things a little more difficult for a little while.

Such posting habits turned this board to a pissing match that the ignore button could not fix.

Why wouldn't the ignore button fix it, unless your real objective is to prevent others from reading Paul's post? Putting Paul on "ignore" would eliminate 100% of his posts for you. Problem solved. If you still have a problem then it obviously is that other people get to read his posts. Unacceptable is the land of the Maniban. Thought is controlled for everyone here. The thought police have spoken....

Dear Mani,

I am an infrequent poster to the AMD Mod thread, as I tend to spend most of my time on the Intel (un-Mod) thread. I personally find your "lifetime ban" of Paul Engel heavy handed and ludicrous.

Please issue a lifetime ban from the AMD Mod thread to me as well. I will be proud to join Paul in being the recipeint of your fatwa.

To make it easier for you, I will end my offending post with the following words, which you deign unclean and unfit for AMDroids to view:

No off topic post: Go Diamondbacks!!!

no insults: I think your tactics are small minded

no personal attacks: Your attacks on Paul show your own insecurity

no name calling: Mani, Mani, fo Fani, Ahmadi, Ahmadi fo Fadi

no too-frequent posting: OH,Well, I'll never be accused of this!

"Athwiper" or "Itanic" or "Cherry Sanders", AMDroids, AMDites, Intelopers

Just to be sure I used the words too many times:

"Athwiper" or "Itanic" or "Cherry Sanders", AMDroids, AMDites, Intelopers

There, I hope that will do the trick. Now, BAN me!

Kind regards,
greg
