May I point out that at no point has he ever intimated that he thought you or Poet or Karen or Solon or marcos ought to be tossed out? No, but he moderates two threads, and I was tossed out of both of those at my first appearance, so I'm not all that impressed. I could post links to so many nonsensical, prejudiced, partisan, and non-responsive posts that there wouldn't be room for talking about important things like American Idol. But to call them "harassing" seems a bit... dubious, shall we say. Non-responsiveness is the main argumentation tool of many, many people on SI. The most common version of it is to choose one (usually incidental) little point and address that, ignoring all the main points, especially those that responded logically to their prior argument. I don't know what TP posts on other threads. It would be entertaining to go look and maybe I will when i can. Or maybe JLA will post links to some of the ban-worthy posts of TP's. So far none have been cited.
