This probably describes your performance on this thread quite well, although - on page 6 already - it hasn't been "killed" yet.

I think Grampy Bobby is looking for a forum utopia of unicorns and rainbows, where the posters all share his ideology and look to him for inspiration and day-to-day guidance. It's a magical cyber-place where the site owner sets up conference calls with him to listen to his ideas for improving the forums, refining the ToS and where Grampy Bobby is Chief Moderator.

...he also gives him licence to campaign against the stench of lying psychopaths' vomit stinking up the forum on everybody's behalf.

divegeester indeed hit the nail on the head. Seitse's puerile and often nasty 'sense of humour' is well known, but Grampy Bobby very recently declined to condemn any of his posts, or to say which ones ought to be deleted by moderators, or nominate him for any sanctions.

Meanwhile, some of the nastiest invective seen on this forum in recent weeks ~ a rant ab ...[text shortened]... own raw humorless invective ~ always seemingly aimed at unnamed persons ~ across the forum. 🙂
Don't worry, he has bullied the mods and site owner quite well
already, aided by his minions, like divekeester and Lard queen.
Proof is I got my posts challenging him removed and just got a
PM threat of banning for questioning Grampy Bobby in any way.

I guess this site has made up its mind about what type of users
they want to keep in order to have a lively forum.

Unfortunately you are one of the most unpleasant posters on this web site ~ and one who is not nearly as funny as he thinks he is ~ which makes defending your right to free speech a pretty distasteful chore that few would bother with. 🙂

Yeah, well, that's, like, your opinion, man. Plus all type of trash is needed
in a cesspool for its particular fragrance to reach its perfect bouquet.

Of course it's my opinion. What else would it be?

A spokesperson from His Majesty The Untouchable? The ghost
of Al Capone? Mohammed? Jim Morrison?

I don't know, I'm way too deep into stimulants to tell the difference
between posters. So, you tell me.

34. By regarding the opportunity to contribute to these internet forums as a right rather than a privilege which reflects the epitome of self centered arrogance.

What utter nonsense, Grampy Bobby. Subjectivity ~ along with diversity, honesty and sincerity ~ are the absolute life blood of an online community. Posting subjectively "kills" threads? What nonsense! 😀
Besides, it also gives you plenty of ammunition to attack other posters, as you do routinely.

So no, "subjectivity" does not kill threads. It's the way you react to their subjectivity that hijacks, and then kills, threads.
