I think it was a spammer, when BA banned it, he deleted all the spam posts.

I'm almost certain that he actually was just being deliberately obtuse for amusement, and trying to get a reaction. So I made certain to only respond when I found it entertaining myself to do so.

I'm not too surprised, JS's style of posting was always close-to-the-line. He even started a thread discussing it after he got in trouble with some of his posts.

Shame he was banned, I was glad to see him back after that long hiatus.

I PMed the BA with the same observation - now no one can say he only bans the woo-woos.

Guy just didn't get it I guess. I thought people were trying to give him the benefit of the doubt, but it was no good.

Well I guess criticism from a young person drove him over the edge, but if you want to post on an internet forum you have to accept that posters of any age have a right to voice opinions.

Especially if that younger person makes a valid point. It's too bad for Till that we weren't willing to see the BABB turn into a cesspool I guess. There is no need for cussing on this board. I cus in real life. I cuss on the irc. When I post here, I have the chance to self-censor my cussing (on the occasion that I would feel like cussin). This is a good thing. Using a cussword here hardly does anything that an excalmation point won't accomplish. I cannot see any valid reason for cussing on an astronomy board...
