Why don't you just ignore him if you don't want to read his posts. Nobody forces you to talk to him or argue with him or bear with his puns. Just leave him alone for fuck's sake.

we try but he usually just makes up some excuse and says its wrong and complains to Ian

Where's the fun in that?

There is something like an ignore list, isn't there?

He doesn't leave people alone, that's the problem. I mean watch this board now, it's pretty chill.

He steps into threads and gives his hickuppy comments and doesn't stop, when asked so. What do you expect? Most people actually do ignore him, I suppose.

I hope that when you're older you'll find fun in other things than harassing people.

this is sort of what I was trying to say

It's the fucking internet. Just don't get upset about his posts. You don't even know him personally. Why is he so important to you?

Although he hasnt done it in a while (because I havent been posting in a while) he would often make snidey critical remarks towards me, a lot of the time when I hadnt even posted in the thread.

 

And if I wasnt online it was 10 times worse, if he had one of his newbie minions to bounce off of, I could log on to a random thread which he somehow would turn into pages and pages of slagging me off, and its only a matter of time before he starts doing it again. I can look for one of these threads if you wish.

No it's fine. I'm sure what you say is true. Still, I think there's a difference between bullying someone and not agreeing with what someone does. People in this thread behave as if they were in primary school. It's ridiculous.

So he can do what he want's but be upset by our posts here,

huh?

Do you know him personally, then?

Why is this so important to you?

 

He annoyed and mocked me on several occasions, not that it hurt, but why should he get away with it?

Its ridiculous how big of a deal you make out of it.

 

Like you said, its the fucking internet, and its very harmless. Few truely hurtful things have been said in this thread, Im sure the guy will get over it.

 

Besides, like we've been saying, his deluded attitude means he probably wont even acknowledge it in the first place and just refer to any criticism (Constructive or just plain abusively the truth) as 'irrelevant' or 'mobbing'.

 

If you havent read much about Mark you wouldn't understand why the 'bullying' is funny, things like expecting his trademark responses and smileys are funny to me, because you just know its going to happen.

 

If Mark cant hack kids making fun of him on the internet, then you'd wonder how he hacked his 70 odd years of living in the real world (End with a burn!)

No, I don't know him personally. He is not particularly important to me, but he is a human being and this is why I'm not entirely indifferent towards him. Neither am I towards you or the other people on the board. I understand that what he has done or said wasn't always right and sometimes hurtful or annoying. I just don't like the idea of this thread, you know, all this talking behind his back. You should tell him all that when he's here and not when he's not. And even if he talks about other people behind their backs, why should you behave in the same stupid way? If you think what he does is wrong, why do you do the same? Why don't you behave in the way you want him to behave?

Yeah, fine, I think I've made clear what I think about all this. I didn't want to make a big deal out of it, I just wanted to state my opinion.

The thing that I like about this thread so much is, that he will/ does read it, you know. It's so not behind his back. Believe me, several people have tried to come to terms with him, but he's just, I'm sorry too much a divvie, to admit his obvious mistakes.

You should tell him all that when he's here and not when he's not

 

This is where people jumping into the middle of a debate they know nothing about, goes very wrong and gets annoying.

 

Like you assumed on this same page a few posts back that all of us are mindlessly bullying, now youre assuming again, that we dont talk about him like this when hes here. I have, a lot. In fact I'm worse when hes here, and Im not the only one.

^ @ ceolsige: Didn't you belong to the bunch of people who thought Marc was funny?

Sorry, I just don't get your position in this. You seem to be fairly opportunistic.

 

If you're talking about that poll, I was voting against the other person.

dear Hogy, everything you say could go to him as well...."you act like in primary school", "I hope that when you're older you'll find fun in other things than harassing people.".....

 

oh and btw....please don't tell people they shouldn't talk about him when he isn't there.....how many times does he do this when people are even there but not in certain threads?

Ah, I see. I don't dig it, but ok.

Ok, I'm sorry for making assumptions and I'm sorry for not having followed any other conversations you had with or about him. It was just a general thought and I just got the feeling that this whole thing is a bit unfair. But you're right, I don't know much about all this.

Yeah, but that's EXACTLY my point. You behave in a way you don't want him to behave. But anyway...I've said enough. It was just my opinion, nothing more.

That's what often happens to people, who don't know him that much. :)

it just so happened that i read through this thread a couple of times during the last week but so far i didn't feel like posting, because... well, this board doesn't mean half as much to me as it used to in the old days. it changed a lot. so i didn't bother (and am still not bothering) to take sides in an arguement which is so very pointless. there will never be a solution that pleases everyone on here. never.

 

but now that i come here again i feel like saying that hogy is the first person in this thread who's actually talking sense. finally. so i'd like to say that i agree with her.

 

a few days ago i read someone (don't care who) was trying to insult mark by saying he was gay. and not a single person reacted to sth like that?. guys, it's 2009. how can people still walk around and call people "gay" in order to express that they don't like them and nobody doesn't even give a shit?

 

it's sad.

 

the whole thread should have been deleted a long time ago because it's so embarrasing.
