Is there no way to stop this loser?

Hey 4runner, I can only suggest we follow Gottcha's own advice and simply ignore him. Be forewarned, however, that on another forum he was both asked to desist with his C&P, and then ignored, and still continued until posters rarely now return to the board. Although 'hanging by a thread' so to speak, this other board is effectively dead. It would truly be sad to see another board die as a result of his self-satisfying, self-indulgent behavior. I sincerely hope this doesn't happen.

I only wish that there was an "ignore" list in our profile - like on Stockhouse. If you have someone on your list at Stockhouse you don't even see their posts - I don't think this type of software has provision for that unfortunately.

Well said MyParentsHouse! I have always enjoyed the way you speak your mind! I have to agree with what you said - intentions may be good, but by the time you get to the end of a 2, 3, 4, 5+ part posting, you've had enough. And to second you on another very valid point, those of us who belong to this board aren't as un-intellectual as we are accused of as being. We could very well be interested in the topics being presented, its just that we with 'real intelligence' and time restrictive schedules, know to go to topic-specific web-sites and message boards where the information is presented in a much more non-biased, un-preaching, concise manner. Unfortunately, this is why, Gottcha, you have very little credibility and even less respect here - and why your postings are considered plagiarized drivel... Badbobby has given us some insight into the patterns of behaviour here. Like MPH said, let's not let it bother us to the point where we lose interest in meeting and sharing with each other on this board...

Chillin, kindly go to "an observation" and read the second paragraph.
plagerising is taking others material with out giving the author his or her due. I site the source. why take offence when none was given?
opinions on my choice of posting methods have been addressed by the moderator. I will refrain of cut down on that style . will that satisfy you? The best defence is an offence simply stop the attacks on the person and counter-claim the post much the way mmh does. She was never under attack, either. Only those who attacked were.

This is all quite amusing actually. It's funny, that the people on these boards who are most offended by Gottcha's posting behaviour, are the people who are doing the most to increase the number of posts. The personal comments, jokes etc., are stirring the pot. Gottcha really "gottcha."

I have come back to this forum very few times because, even though you say "Ignore Gottcha's posts" it's pretty hard when they are everywhere you want to go to have a conversation with someone.Yes, your spelling is not great, I can accept that, but I don't think you even proofread before you hit the "POST" button. You are too busy prattling on about boring stuff that is not condusive to a friendly reply. Why can't you just cut to the chase?

There once was a discussion board at voy.com/59611/ that was home to lively, uncensored discussion and debate. At one time there were as many as a dozen posters who participated on this once dynamic forum. That was until, a certain poster began to incessantly flood the board with long-winded, self-indulgent C&P’s, and to venomously attack any who had a different opinion, or tried to call him on his behaviour. It wouldn’t matter if you even agreed with what he was posting. If your response contained any suggestion that he moderate or adjust his behaviour, his immediate defensive and vindictive response could be described as close to pathological.
A visit to this forum today, and it’s archives, will reveal what is in essence a ‘ghost forum’, ie. a structure who’s population has deserted. An investigation through the archives will also reveal one of the chief reasons for its demise – that is, a grossly disproportionate number of postings from one poster that are made up almost entirely of C&P, and ample evidence of his vindictive attacks. Sadly, I am witness to the same pattern beginning again in a new location.
He has asked me my purpose in speaking out against him here and now (I presume everyone knows who I’m talking about). I’ve enjoyed the opportunity to engage in discussion and debate in various forums, and was saddened to watch the slow demise of voy.com. I’d hate to see another forum slowly die out because its members become completely frustrated by the self-serving behaviour of one attention-seeking deviant.
Dio (aka. “gottcha”), you were asked repeatedly on voy.com to “chill out” and “get real” but refused to acknowledge any accountability for your behaviour and the effect it had on other posters. And here you are again, with more than one person asking you to “chill out” and “get real” and refusing to acknowledge any accountability for your behaviour and the effect it has on other posters. Hey, when one person says something, “Ya, well, whatever.” When two people say it, “Hmmm.” But when half a dozen or more have told you – well, when do you start to listen? How can you expect anyone to consider your arguments for critical thinking, when you’re demonstrating your own inability to acknowledge the obvious?
