Isn't there any way this clown can be banned from the forum before some poor unsuspecting newbie is hurt by his bad advice? Maybe is enough of the respected members such as Pugsy, LSAT, and others were to petition the admins something could be done.

The world is full of people who give bad or inaccurate advice - it is up to every individual to recognize this fact and be careful. No fully functional adult should need to be "mothered".

I'm wading into this with a great deal of trepidation. MaxINTJ, I agree with you. We all need to be able to sift through advice and decide what to follow. We can search for corroborating information. We can ask our medical providers.MaxINTJ wrote:I understand why someone might feel this way, but censorship is never the right thing to do.TiredoftheCrap wrote:Isn't there any way this clown can be banned from the forum before some poor unsuspecting newbie is hurt by his bad advice?

I have NEVER bought a computer that didn't have a Off button, same goes for most web browsers, even my T.V., had one, many times I turn it off or change the channel. The user gets to decide what they hear and or watch, interact with.
There comes a time in most people lives when they have to pull on their pants (His, Her's or It's:N/A). For most people the world isn't going to conform to their needs 100%, nor should it. The Rule is Adapt, those that won't fail, leave or die off.
Everything you need to successfully treat your Sleep Apnea is written here, many times over and over, you only need to read and use common sense to sift out what applies to you.

Re: Delete xxyzx??
Bad advice can come from anywhere--even our professional, PAID providers.
Sadly, some minds are dulled by years of oxygen deprived "sleep".
This makes us easy prey for swindlers and charlatans.
It would be unamerican to deprive someone of their right to free speech,
even if the speaker is deranged/sociopathic/mentally unstable.
This is why some of us have chosen to place a warning in our signature lines.
This appears to be the best we can do.
Goofproof has the right idea. Use your own best judgement, then shut out the rest.

And therein lies the problem. Whether he's right or not, he behaves badly.Bertha deBlues wrote:XX, you're not helping your case by responding with name calling.
He's not always wrong. Sometimes what he says is spot on. Sometimes what he says is subject to interpretation and/or questionable, but not really wrong. But sometimes, it IS wrong and proof has been posted. He ignores the proof, swears it was never posted and continues to name call anybody that disagrees with him.
In another thread, I admitted I was wrong and he was right and he gloated and called me his favorite slur. Even when you try to be nice to him, he behaves very badly.
Ban him? I don't know. I hate to think about that as well, but frankly, I'm sick of his antics.

Re: Delete xxyzx??
And this is why I sometimes stay away for days or weeks at a time. The screaming in red capital letters and enormous font, the name calling, the bickering. Yikes! Probably time to stay away again.

Re: Delete xxyzx??
I'm sorry that my red letters appear "screaming" to you. I respect your interpretation of it, even though screaming is not what I intended. I would be happy to change the color and/or minimize the size of the font. Or is the message in general that upsets you?Bertha deBlues wrote:And this is why I sometimes stay away for days or weeks at a time.

Re: Delete xxyzx??
Honestly, the big red letters are distracting (to me), but so is the name calling. Folks just need to filter what they see or hear and move on. I am just vehemently opposed to censorship (or Newspeak) in any form.Madalot wrote:I'm sorry that my red letters appear "screaming" to you.

And for what it's worth, the name calling really gets to me too. I try really hard NOT to call anyone, even xxyzx, names. Since that's my biggest gripe about him, it would be hypocritical to do the same thing, right?

Madalot: I'm sorry, I wasn't singling you out. There are several people (including xx) who have resorted to huge red exclamations in their signatures. I appreciate you toning yours down.
xx: I will not come to your defense again. Instead of saying "thanks," you increased your screaming and name-calling.
Lesson learned.

Re: Delete xxyzx??
No apologies necessary. I'm happy to make a change if something I do is irritating or offensive to others. And I didn't feel singled out - I just happened to be the one who posted! No worries at all....Bertha deBlues wrote:Madalot: I'm sorry, I wasn't singling you out. There are several people (including xx) who have resorted to huge red exclamations in their signatures.

And this is why so many of us have a problem with xxyzx - he does what he wants and doesn't listen to anybody, about anything. And he's abusive. Many of us have a MAJOR problem with the "l" slur he slings about. I'm with Pugsy on that one!
I don't agree with people poking at him all the time just to poke (although I admit I have participated, something I am striving to stop). But I get why they do it.
