At least he particpates in most threads.
Says the poster whom seldom replies to threads other than his own or his alters.

Do you also have a solid reason to ban him?
Post one - you have still the chance for this to be the first thread on banning someone which would also present a reasoning behind it.

marquis and Monkeyboy, your infidel-Dogz parallel halts severely, for the following reason.
1. Infidel posts nonsense threads. DD74 does not do that. He posts about stuff, not just silly pictures. You might say DD74's posts are nonsensical but they always aim to adhere to a topic (if nothing else, then on the level of "I agree" or "that's sad") or present some news. 2. DD74 participates in discussions. In a chatty way. In a childish way, some say. But he participates, whereas infidel is a rogue nonsense poster. 3. Infidel has evil intents. DD74 is kind and has a good heart. Whereas infidel does this just to piss uss all off. That's an enormous difference and the reason why I can't stand the dogz bashing going on here is that the guy obviously does not have malicious intentions.
(Or I'm just too easily fooled. Come on, I'm a Swede! )
I'm sorry I ate your fish!

I think dogz has been a good poster lately. Plus, i like Infidels pic post's too. The "Fashion" dance thread was funny. I think some picture threads are very good as entertainment, and if that is all that a poster posts, then, so be it.

Before I go any further, Emil, I have to say first that it's more of an easy joke than a serious comparison, and also that I'm not about to get sucked into another Dogzfest just quite yet.
For the sake of playing devil's advocate, though, I'll say this about your three points:
1. Nonsense confined to a handful of threads is less obtrusive than nonsense spread across the entire board.
2. If "participation" means showing up in every thread, I'd rather have my idiots non-participatory.
3. Ignoring the fact that none of us can really know either of their minds (meaning that I disagree with your perceptions and believe that Dogz has a lot of malignant tendencies), the results are more relevant than the intentions. If infidel is a loony with a sniper rifle, Dogz is an infant with an Abrahms tank.
Literature is [the art] best suited to challenging absolutes of all kinds. Because it is in its origin the schismatic Other of the sacred (and authorless) text, so it is also the art most likely to fill our god-shaped holes

It is a great honour to have so many of TW's elite discussing my ... ahem ... colourful posts.

Considering I was so against the random flooding, as these are confined to threir own posts I find nothing wrong with them. The Bowie Band thread made me laugh.

In reply to:
Marquis In my private correspondence with infidel, I've found him to be a warm, personable human being, an all-around good guy. Therefore, I think he should be allowed to do whatever he wants. I mean, TW is supposed to be tolerant of a wide variety of posting styles.
I second that!
In reply to:
EJSunday I have a better idea: I'll move the infidel threads to the artiste forum - that's where they belong anyway
Well ok if you must.

Thats all I wanted to do, try to add a bit of colour and some fun to the sometimes colourless and rude-like posts in the coffee forum ... it all started with my 4 eyes gorgeous Elton and skipping Liberaces 
In reply to:
diamondogz74 They are for sure and where EJ has plonked them(artiste) is just dandy, It's just that they do not belong in coffee shop and you alone must know Sys how these huge animations slow loading the page down very much.
I'm all for the art and wouldn't want the guy/gal banned just for that, I don't want infidel banned period, but that bloody awful Liberace avatar ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! now turned to tits, how apt.
Sorry didn't mean to slow down your pc with the animation ... maybe get a bigger 'n' better PC  Hey my Liberace (and 4 eyes Elton) are OK! But must admit my titties are pretty cool!
