 I wish people could be banned for stupidity I won't name names, but ever since a certain poster has made a comeback on these forums, I can't describe how much more annoying some threads have gotten.

Sorry. He's not talking about you. I think he might be talking about me.

Sometime during my early 30's I lost the ability to pull off sarcasm.

He's not so bad, he's generally a friendly dude and his posts are short and semi-entertaining to read in moments(see KJ Gold).
I don't think he makes enough of an impact on here to really have an negative effect, you can't really blame a person for having a lower IQ than you.

Sorry, I can't ban anyone for being stupid. For 3 reason.
1. They entertain us.
2. We Can make fun of them and get away with it.
3. Stupidity is always good for a laugh.
Besides, he is not breaking any of the guidelines.

Moviedude, the thing you have to realize is that the next day, we'll have someone complaining that you should be banned for harrasssing them on the forum when you get mad at them .. or posting gibberish when you're high or drunk.
or someone will ask for the banning of tonymontana because for every serious conversation going on, he has to come and enter in a witty comment, that has little to do with the subject matter.
we can't go around banning people for being the way they are (which itself is debatable) unless their posting habits are having a dire effect on the forum (as in posting repeatedly again and again in caps or font that hurts the eye.

I KNOW we can't ban someone unless they break the guidelines dickface, you don't need to waste your time coming up with examples to illustrate why this is a bad idea.

If we banned everyone for being stupid, I would be very lonely here at KJ. I can't have conversations by myself... well, actually I can. Not only can I, but I've been known to do so!
Actually now that I think about it, my conversations to myself are better than 99.24% of the conversations here. This idea by MovieDude may be a good one.
By the way... can I call you MovieDoodie? I like that name... it's fun to say.
