Beanclown should be permanently banned.

Ban Beanclown forever

They are far, far more tolerant of trolls here than on any other forum I've ever been to. I assume they have their reasons and that there is some "philosophy" behind it.

The guy is the most hardcore troll this board has ever had. Seriously. Look at his track record. Remember when he used to post on here about his gay uncle and how he's totally OK with that kind of thing? Now he is a total and complete bigot. He posts bigoted threads just to spark hate-filled discussions and/or to get attention. He has 0 rep. The entire board calls him Beanclown. He can't even make a damn game thread properly. I think if we get 20 votes he should be permanently IP banned.

You want him banned because you disagree with his politics and philosophy? Here's a thought. Put him on your ignore list and you'll never have to read anything he posts again.

Alas, anytime anyone ever gets banned (or suspended, or given an infraction, or even warned there might be an infraction forthcoming in the future) we're repressive facists who just want to make sure the board is no fun for anybody.

It's a true "damned if you do, damned if you don't" enterprise.

Part of the issue presently is that we had the "great reset" that brought a lot of older trolls back. It used to be we squashed those out as fast as we could go.

Good response. I'll bet all of us have voiced opinions at one time or another that have been unpopular. Last I checked, no one is pushing on my hand forcing me to open a thread against my will. I can use the ignore feature - or just not read comments from a particular poster.

You open a thread by Beantown or KatieMCR and you already know EXACTLY what their opinion is going to be. If you're offended one way or the other, just don't open the damn thread. If you really want Beantown to go away, just ignore him.

Um... for the record, I don't see it that way. I think a person could rightfully become frustrated with a troll like Beantown for reasons other than simple political and philosophical disagreement. For instance, I believe that I am perfectly capable of disagreeing with, and yet getting along with, many people whose philosophies differ greatly from my own. I think it's crude and dismissive to assume that a person would only want someone banned because of those kinds of disagreements. It is possible to correctly identify trolling even when you agree with the points the troll is making. Does Beantown offer anything positive to this board? I mean anything: humor? intelligent conversation? the occasional positive support of a fellow poster? Maybe so. Maybe, hidden in the waves of negativity, stupidity, offensiveness, caustic and insulting behavior, the mocking of other posters, etc -- maybe there's some kind of positive contribution that I've never noticed. Often-times I don't pay attention to who's posting what; I just read through the board and get the big picture.

I don't really care enough about Beantown or anybody else to get worked up about it. (Hopper is my kryptonite.) But... I mean, I would call a very, very few posters basically hardcore trolls. Recognizing trolling does not necessarily equate to wanting to oppress opposing views.

There are tons of posters that I don't agree with. I don't consider them trolls just because they disagree with me. Beantown is "clearly" a troll. Just look at the types of posts he makes, and arguments he has been getting into.

Maybe you're just mad because roseparkjazzfan was banned?
 
Wow, Katie comes in here and preaches uncomprimising tolerance and yet is very quick to jump in this thread in favor of banning a poster that just so happens to disagree with what she's all about. I'm not a huge Beantown fan myself, but it's funny how some will scream for tolerance, yet eagerly join a witch hunt the first chance they get.

I actually saw what Beantown was trying to accomplish when he satarized Kaite's LPGA thread with his Race thread. Was it a good idea, well articulated or even funny? I guess that depends on who ask but he certainly shouldn't be banned for it.

A spade is a spade. I call it like I see it. I have plenty of tolerance, except when it comes to bigotry. Beanclown is constantly trolling this message board. It's not like this most recent thread is the first time it's happened.

"ain't" it the truth.

My theory is that certain mods have troll alts. What then?

It's easy to have selective tolerance.

I love most basketball fans, except for Los Angeles faker fans. I hate those guys.

Somehow I doubt Katie would all of a sudden have tolerance of Elder Packer if he were perfect in every aspect yet didn't believe that homosexuals should be allowed to marry.

I find it hilarious that Katie has been exposed for who she/he truly is.

I also find it funny that Katie opposes Bigotry.

A bigot is a person obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices, especially one exhibiting intolerance, and animosity toward those of differing beliefs. The predominant usage in modern American English refers to persons hostile to those of differing race, ethnicity, nationality, sexual orientation, various mental disorders, or religion.

Katie, by your own words and actions you're a bigot. Your hostility towards the LDS religion is quite well known on these boards.

In other words, you should be intolerant of yourself. You're a hypocrite.

Which is typical of the homosexuals that I know as well. All that I've personally known have lacked self esteem, tolerance, and had really interesting childhoods. Perhaps one should do a scientific study to see if the upbringing of a "homosexual" child has anything to do with their decisions instead of just claiming to be "born" a certain way.

Finally, one preaching tolerance should actually live what they preach.

Just a thought.
 
I love selective tolerance.... There was this guy who lived in the south named Jim Crow. He loved people, men and women. He loved this country. He loved the bible, exploring, capitalism, democracy, working, reading, farming, business, and singing.

Yet, he had hostile feelings towards blacks.

Should he be labeled intolerant? Or is he just exercising what Katie seems to be exercising, loving everyone but HATING bigots? LOL.

How is what Katie is doing to beantown any different than those who supported the Jim Crow mentality or any form of intolerance? She's tolerant of everyone EXCEPT for bigots. That's by definition, INTOLERANCE.

Philosophically speaking, can we have tolerance without someone being intolerant? can we have intolerance if everyone is tolerant? What is tolerance anyway?

Does Katie suggest that we as a society let anything go? No rules, no laws, no commandments, no social structure, just pure anarchy?
 
Sorry if those words offended some of you. I'm not looking for a fight. I'm just interested in what tolerance is.

I'm also curious as to what a bigot is when it seems like nearly everyone on this board has strong (hateful) feelings about race, sexual orientation, football teams, or religion.

I do find it hilarious that Katie is ripping beantown after creating an innumerable amount of threads preaching tolerance. I would think that she of all people would be tolerant of bean's opposing views. You may not agree w/them, but that doesn't mean that they should be banned. That's part of a discussion, seeing other viewpoints.

MOCKFRY!!!

Ya know.. there's this feature where you can ignore posters. It's been around for a while. Maybe some of you have heard of it?

Being tolerant doesn't mean suffering through any ******** somebody throws at you. I don't see Katie doing or saying anything even a little bit intolerant.

Who said anything about suffering through whatever you said somebody throws at you?

Does it mean asking for the ban of someone whom you disagree with?

Didn't think so. It's called a PM... If Bean did something mean or personal, couldn't someone just PM bean? If that doesn't work, hit the ignore button.

I don't think tolerance is revenge or an outward reaction of hate/intolerance, which is definitely what I'm seeing right now.

And I think you're a myopic, crybaby, d-bag. Sorry, but I'm just calling it like I see it. If that line of thinking is ok for you I'm sure it should be ok for me. Right? As has already been said multiple times in this thread, if a poster bothers you so much, just use the f-ing "ignore" function. It's only one click away.
