If Billybob would have taken his initial short term ban and not set up another account he would have been back here long ago. Now he's done it 10 times maybe.

His flagrant disregard of us and the rules is what has earned him a permaban; his posts and fresh accounts are deleted as spam.

Would monitoring the duration require a calendar or a wristwatch?

He is fair game for ALL moderators.
As soon as he is identified and verified..

Disagree with the leftist members of this forum?
Thats about all it takes....must not have an opposing opinion. Diversity in all things except thought. Sort of like a modern college campus.

Cardinal Rules:

Any disrespect to a moderator, whether on the forum, or via PM will carry a minimum of 3 points.”

http://www.peachparts.com/shopforum/open-discussion/332050-mod-question-about-bb.html



Maybe the moderators have come to the realization that the vast majority of complaining can be sourced to a small number of people with diminished self esteem resulting from perpetually bruised egos who incessantly whimper and whine to the alternating beats of:

Infraction System:

“Though the infraction system is the primary way of moderating the forum, at any time a moderator(s)' judgment can supersede the infraction system and a moderator can take whatever actions are deemed necessary required to settle a specific situation.”
Sometimes it is better to be silent than to reveal the extent of one's ... exposure.

Having graduated recently I can tell you quite a bit about college campuses, especially here in Kalifornia. My guess is you've driven past a few but never actually attended.

I have no problem with his legacy. IMO he has a reasonable argument concerning personal responsibility vs gov. I have no a problem with this.

We would be better served (and his argument advanced) by logically constructing his argument while ignoring our personalities.

He keeps on creating multiple aliases, which is a violation of the rules.

"8. Each forum member may maintain only one account."

We've let other members come back who've had a long-term ban yet maintained the same account.

So by logical extension someone who just joins can not search and find past posts?

To be quite honest, I had been coming to Mercedesshop for almost 2 years before I became a member. I was quite familiar with BillyBob and Forced, BC, Tango, Samuel Ross... These were all names that routinely showed up when I was farming DD for information on my new-to-me Mercedes diesel.

Didn't occur to me to join. The questions I had were asked and answered already.

Yes...let him back in. He's no more over the top than some of the rant-rave left-wingers I see here. Click the ignore button if you can't handle it.
