I wonder where people posting without having read the rest of the thread fits into Ming's peeve league?

Off-Topic Threads
Do you mean threads that are off-topic wrt the forum they're in, or threads that are in the Off-Topic? If the latter, that gets my vote

One more time...

1.) Asher and the Mac crowd were continually at odds.

2.) Urban Ranger (a Mac supporter) and Asher were continually at odds.

3.) MacUser, the Civ-Mac forum mod, disappeared and the Mac users turned it into a forum to discuss non-Civ related Mac issues.

4.) Asher continually raided that forum to put Mac users down. Eventually he had enough and blew the whistle on the unauthorized use of the forum...Pissing many people off.

5.) About this time UR is promoted to Mod. Asher percieves this as being a bone thrown to the Mac user crowd and a personal attack upon him.

6.) Asher challenges UR's new authority by "baiting" him in Off-Topic threads and outright dogs him in the Whine thread here in the community forum.

7.) Mtg steps in to ban Asher for a week in response to "baiting" a mod.

8.) Asher, having enough of the situation, requests that his log in never be re-enabled.


IMHO, a sequence of events that benefits no one and diminishes the community. Asher must bear the responsibility of his actions and realize that the will of the owner's is final, but it is said to see someone go in that way.
