There is someone who literally spams the "Religion, Faith and Spirituality" board with daily doses of off-topic bad "poetry"...I suggest a new board where his stuff would be automatically moved.
People who like this sort of tripe can join him there.

Yeah he did that at the IMDb forums and continued over here. It apparently doesn't violate any specific forum rule or TOS. I noticed early on that it is usually an atheistic mocking attack on Christianity. Usually the title parodies an age-old cliche or twists some Religious saying. I try not to read any of them. Sometimes I do get suckered into one because I didn't see who started the thread.
It seems about all you can do is put him on ignore or block or whatever these boards call it.

Yes, he used to at least have some link to religion, but now I think his spam is more often than not beyond such attacks on religion and simply off-topic. I think almost half the posts on that board are his drivel now. I'm actually serious. I think the admins. should quarantine his stuff to a board of his own.

geodeI'm not overly concerned with off-topic posts, especially on boards that have their own established communities of members such as RFS. Furthermore, from what I understand, thefleetsin has been posting his poetry in RFS for years and most everyone there accepts it without complaint. Perhaps you could utilize the block feature. -John

I think the majority of people were irritated by his posting on the old IMDb board, and yes, there were complaints there. I would guess the same is true here as well. At best he has been tolerated. That board is being ruined in stages and he is one reason this is happening. No, my solution is to leave that board. I have had enough. I was on the old board at IMDb from its first second, when it was sprung from The Passion of The Christ. I know of another couple of very old timers that won't post there anymore. It is at its lowest ebb.

remember as you leave to never forget: there is a heart at the end of every keyboard. a heart surviving without the help of any gods whatsoever.
may the peace that revolves around understanding follow you wherever you may go.
