Personally, I think it's disrespectful to the host. This site is well run and maintained, and I'm sure the SysAdmins have better things to do than housecleaning POS's.

But as I posted, there is a solution. Like adults in a room with a child acting out, we just ignore and go on with our conversations. I'll admit I take a bit of pleasure in seeing a page with tombstones, especially a sequential group from a single member, knowing that THAT fly is just buzzing to himself (or herself, but I'm going with the odds here). I can sit here in a comfortable chair, drink in hand, enjoying the refreshing breeze of intelligent conversations without the annoying buzz of flies, mosquitoes, gnats... kept outside by the window (yes, I know Linux but I'm lazy) screen.

All a matter of perspective. Some say "sheeple", others say "community". Some say "emerald beetle", others say "an insect to be squashed". Perhaps it depends on which side of the screen you're on...

So, johnjones, vincent, twister, sammael, spankme, coxswain... No matter whether the same person or just, as the Thais say, "same, same but different", ALL the same species to ME. Enjoy your buzzing, I'll enjoy the quiet and the dead bugs (had a lot of those in unix) on the window sill.
It really is tremendously satisfying to see him yelling into the void ha ha. Btw in this incarnation spankme straight up admitted he’s Vinny, quoting his own “legendary” fantasy 27-somes ARs lol

Thanks again for this tip. I looked for this feature before, assuming it would be alongside the report button on peopleÂ’s posts, as it is on a lot of forums, and didnÂ’t find it.
