It is and he is not outside of the bounds of the rules by doing it. You, and others, are outside of the bounds of the rules by taking up direct attacks against another member. That's a messy road to tread and I know from past experience that letting it slide is messier than telling you guys to follow the rules.

Quote:Also, wouldn't you penalise someone who brought up abortion in every thread he could?

No. We wouldn't.

Quote:You guys don't feel that allowing him to bait people into arguing on race and creed on a regular basis isn't going to eventually blow up in your faces?

People here can debate about whatever they want. They can also choose not to debate. (hint)

Quote: If someone takes him up on it shitstorm won't even describe it. You're intelligent enough to know that it isn't worth the risk.

Worth what risk? Someone losing their temper because they can't take differing opinions? That happens all of the time. In fact, we've had people all out freak the fuck out here. Forums are still here. I think we're safe.

Quote:The thread made was created as a means for him to spit out his agenda and he *does* have an agenda.

That's the problem, you can't pigeonhole members, no matter how much you dislike them. They can post wherever they want, assuming they don't break any rules.

Quote:The theory was that if he got it out of his system he'd never bring it up again.

Well, this isn't the place to test theories. I'm afraid that the outcome of it was rather predictable, common and far from your theory.

Quote:Now resolve it that way, resolve it your way or wait for some poor bastard whos stupid enough to rise to his bullshit to force you to resolve it the messy way but either way this will eventually be resolved.

You think so? I think the resolution will be everyone stops being butthurt about differing opinions or just leaves. That's what always happens.
